FAQs
How do I know if my Oak Ridge roof needs to be replaced instead of repaired?
Signs that a full replacement is wiser than a spot repair include: shingles that are curling, cracking, or missing over large areas; granule loss exposing the fiberglass mat; sagging or soft roof decking; multiple active leaks; mold or rot in the attic; and roofs older than 20–25 years (or 15–18 for builder-grade 3-tab shingles). Our project manager will conduct a free, no-obligation inspection, document the condition with photos, and give you an honest recommendation on whether a repair or full replacement is the most cost-effective path.
What roofing materials do you recommend for Oak Ridge’s weather, and why?
Oak Ridge experiences hot, humid summers, occasional hail in spring, and ice storms in winter. For that reason we typically recommend: (1) Architectural asphalt shingles rated for 130 mph wind and Class 3 or 4 impact resistance; (2) Metal standing-seam roofs for superior longevity and energy efficiency; or (3) Synthetic composite shingles that mimic slate or shake but weigh less and resist algae. During the consultation we review each option’s lifespan, curb appeal, energy performance, and budget to help you choose the best fit for your home.
How long does a roof replacement project usually take?
Most single-family homes in Oak Ridge are completed in one to two days once materials arrive on site. The timeline breaks down as follows: (1) Pre-planning and permit acquisition: 3–5 business days; (2) Material ordering and delivery: 1–7 days depending on product selection; (3) Tear-off and decking inspection: ½–1 day; (4) Installation of underlayment, flashing, shingles/metal panels, and ventilation: 1 day for average 2,000 sq ft roof; (5) Final cleanup, magnetic nail sweep, and city/HOA inspection: same day as install or next morning. Larger or steep-slope roofs, specialty products, or weather delays can extend the schedule, but your dedicated project manager will keep you updated daily.
Will you handle permits, inspections, and HOA approvals for me?
Yes. We are licensed in the City of Oak Ridge and Anderson/Roane Counties and pull all required building permits on your behalf. We schedule city inspections, meet the inspector on-site, and provide any documentation your homeowners association requests (color samples, spec sheets, insurance certificates). This turnkey service ensures your new roof complies with local building codes, wind-uplift requirements, and HOA guidelines without you having to chase paperwork.
How much will my roof replacement cost and what financing options are available?
Costs vary with roof size, pitch, and chosen material, but most Oak Ridge asphalt shingle replacements fall between $8,000 and $14,000, architectural metal between $18,000 and $30,000, and premium composites higher. After measuring your roof with aerial imagery and an on-site assessment, we give a fixed-price quote that includes tear-off, disposal, permits, underlayment, flashings, ventilation, labor, and tax—no surprise fees. We partner with multiple lenders to offer 0% same-as-cash plans for 12–18 months, low-interest loans up to 144 months, and can guide you through insurance claims if storm damage is involved.
What warranties and post-installation support do you offer?
You receive three layers of protection: (1) Manufacturer’s material warranty—Lifetime on most architectural shingles or 40–50 years on metal/composite products; (2) Enhanced system warranty registered by our certified status with major manufacturers, covering tear-off and labor for up to 25 years against defects; (3) Our own 10-year workmanship warranty that guarantees proper installation, flashing integrity, and leak-free performance. Should any issue arise, call our Oak Ridge office and a technician will be dispatched within 48 hours to inspect and resolve it at no charge during the warranty period.
