FAQs
How can I tell if my Sequatchie home needs a full roof replacement instead of a repair?
Several warning signs signal that a complete replacement is the safer, more cost-effective choice. These include shingles that are curling, cracked, or missing in multiple areas, widespread granule loss that exposes the fiberglass mat, recurrent interior leaks or ceiling stains, visible sagging of the roof deck, and roofs that are 20–25 years old. During a free inspection, we evaluate ventilation, decking integrity, and attic moisture to determine whether a repair will buy you meaningful time or if a full tear-off is the smarter long-term investment.
What roofing materials do you recommend for Sequatchie’s climate, and what are their benefits?
Sequatchie County sees hot, humid summers, occasional high winds, and winter freeze-thaw cycles. Architectural asphalt shingles remain the most popular choice because they balance cost, durability, and impact resistance (Class 3 or 4). Metal roofing—especially standing-seam steel—offers 40-plus-year longevity, high wind ratings, and excellent energy efficiency. For homeowners seeking superior aesthetics and longevity, synthetic slate or shake delivers the look of natural materials while weighing less and resisting algae growth. We help you compare lifespan, energy savings, maintenance needs, and return on investment before making a selection.
How long does a roof replacement usually take with Precise Craftsmanship Roofing?
Most asphalt-shingle tear-offs on average-sized Sequatchie homes (2,000–3,000 sq. ft.) are completed in one to two days, weather permitting. Metal or specialty systems may take three to five days because of custom panel fabrication and trim work. We schedule materials in advance, bring a dedicated crew, and use a catch-all protection system so cleanup happens simultaneously with installation, minimizing disruption to your daily routine.
Will my homeowner’s insurance cover the cost of a roof replacement?
Coverage depends on the cause of damage. Policies typically pay for sudden, accidental events—wind, hail, fallen tree limbs—provided the roof was in reasonably good condition before the event. Age-related wear or neglected maintenance is generally excluded. If a storm inspection reveals qualifying damage, we document it with photos, meet the adjuster onsite, and help you navigate paperwork, ensuring code-required upgrades (ice & water shield, ridge ventilation) are included in the claim estimate.
What is your roof-replacement process and how do you ensure precise craftsmanship?
1) Detailed inspection and written proposal outlining materials, ventilation upgrades, and warranties. 2) Permit acquisition and HOA approvals if needed. 3) Complete tear-off down to decking; rotten boards are replaced with APA-rated sheathing. 4) Ice & water shield in valleys and around penetrations, synthetic underlayment elsewhere. 5) Manufacturer-specific installation: six-nail pattern, starter strips, and factory-matched ridge caps for shingles, or concealed-fastener clips and butyl sealant strips for standing-seam panels. 6) Magnetic sweep and final checklist. A project manager photographs every stage and performs a post-installation 25-point inspection before issuing the warranty certificate.
Do you provide warranties or maintenance plans after installation?
Yes. We supply a dual warranty: a manufacturer’s limited lifetime material warranty (non-prorated for the first 10–15 years depending on product) and our own 10-year workmanship guarantee covering labor, flashing, and leak repairs caused by installation errors. Homeowners may enroll in our annual maintenance plan, which includes gutter cleaning, fastener retightening, sealant touch-ups, and a written inspection report—helping you maximize the lifespan of your new roof and keep manufacturer warranties valid.
