FAQs
What makes your crews “certified installers,” and why does that matter for my roof replacement in Norris?
Every crew member who will work on your home has completed factory-sponsored training from the shingle and underlayment manufacturers we represent, as well as OSHA safety classes. This certification means we follow the exact installation specifications required for the products to perform as advertised and for the manufacturer’s warranty to remain valid. Hiring a certified installer protects you from premature failures caused by improper fastening patterns, incorrect ventilation calculations, or the use of non-approved accessories.
How long does a typical roof replacement take, and will I need to leave my home during the process?
Most single-family homes in Norris are completed in one to two working days, depending on roof size, pitch, and weather. Tear-off, deck inspection, and dry-in (waterproofing) are usually finished the first day, while shingle installation and detail work follow on day two. You can stay in your home; we simply ask that vehicles be moved from the driveway and that children and pets remain inside while debris is being removed. We perform a magnetic nail sweep at the end of each day to keep your yard and drive usable.
Which roofing materials do you recommend for the Norris climate, and how do I decide between them?
Asphalt architectural shingles remain the most popular because they balance cost, durability, and curb appeal. For homeowners wanting premium longevity, Class 4 impact-rated shingles or standing-seam metal panels withstand hail and high winds common to East Tennessee. We also install synthetic slate and cedar if you’re interested in a distinctive look. During your consultation we review attic ventilation, sun exposure, and neighborhood HOA rules, then present good-better-best options with sample boards so you can compare color, texture, warranty length, and price.
What warranties and workmanship guarantees come with a new roof from your company?
Manufacturer product warranties range from 25-year limited to lifetime non-prorated coverage, depending on the shingle line you select. Because we are certified installers, we can register enhanced warranties that cover 100% of material AND labor for up to 50 years against manufacturing defects. In addition, our company stands behind a 10-year workmanship guarantee that covers issues caused by installation, such as flashing leaks or nail pops. Both warranties are transferable once if you sell your home within the coverage period.
Do I need a permit for roof replacement in Norris, and will you handle the paperwork?
Yes. Anderson County requires a residential building permit for complete roof replacements, and homes within the Norris Historic District have additional design guidelines that must be met. We pull the permit, schedule required inspections, and supply any documentation the Historical Review Commission needs (material samples, color swatches, ridge-vent profiles, etc.). Permit fees are included in your written proposal, so there are no surprise costs later.
How is the price of my roof replacement determined, and can you help with insurance claims?
Your quote is based on roof area (measured in squares), the pitch and number of stories, chosen material type, the condition of the existing decking, and accessory upgrades such as skylight replacement or gutter guards. All costs—labor, disposal, permits, and warranties—are itemized in one transparent estimate. If your roof was damaged by wind or hail, we meet your insurance adjuster on site, provide photo documentation, and use Xactimate pricing software so our scope of work matches the insurer’s format. We’ll explain your deductible, any code-upgrade allowances, and handle supplemental invoicing to make the process stress-free.
