FAQs
How can I tell whether my Sequatchie roof needs a full replacement instead of another repair?
Recurring leaks, widespread shingle loss, curled or cracked shingles, sagging decking, and visible daylight in the attic are strong indicators that repairs will only be a temporary fix. In Sequatchie County’s humid, storm-prone climate, these symptoms usually mean the waterproofing layer has failed across large areas. During a free inspection Stubborn Leaks Roofing checks the shingle field, flashing, decking, attic ventilation, and moisture readings. If 30 % or more of the roof system is compromised, or if the roof is 15–25 years old, we recommend replacement so you avoid repeated leak calls and higher long-term costs.
What roofing materials do you offer for replacements in Sequatchie, and how do I choose the best one?
We install architectural asphalt shingles, designer shingles, standing-seam metal, stone-coated steel, and specialty low-slope membranes. Asphalt architectural shingles are the most popular in Sequatchie for their balance of cost, durability (25–30 years), and wide color range. Metal roofs last 40–70 years, shed rain rapidly, and can lower cooling bills but have a higher upfront price. Designer shingles mimic slate or shake for enhanced curb appeal without the weight of real stone or wood. During your consultation we review your home’s roof pitch, budget, HOA rules, and energy-efficiency goals, then provide side-by-side quotes so you can make an informed choice.
How long will a roof replacement take and will Sequatchie weather delay the project?
Most single-family asphalt shingle replacements are completed in 1–2 days; metal systems usually take 2–3 days. Our crews arrive at 7 a.m., remove old materials, inspect decking, install underlayment/ice-&-water barrier, flash penetrations, and lay new roofing the same day whenever possible. Sequatchie’s summer thunderstorms occasionally push work back a day, but we monitor local forecasts, schedule jobs during stable weather windows, and always have tarps on hand in case an unexpected shower pops up. You’ll receive a detailed timeline and daily status texts so you know exactly where the project stands.
Will my homeowners insurance pay for the roof replacement?
If the roof was damaged by a covered peril—wind, hail, falling limbs, or fire—your policy may pay all or part of the replacement cost, minus your deductible. Age-related wear or maintenance issues are generally excluded. Stubborn Leaks Roofing provides photo documentation, a written damage report, and can meet the adjuster on site to ensure nothing is missed. Once the claim is approved we work off the insurance scope, handle supplemental paperwork if hidden damage is found, and never bill more than the approved amount plus your deductible.
How much does a roof replacement cost in Sequatchie and what affects the price?
For a typical 2,000 sq ft home in Sequatchie, asphalt shingle replacements average $9,000–$13,000, while standing-seam metal runs $17,000–$28,000. Costs depend on roof size, pitch/complexity, material type, decking repairs, number of layers to tear off, and ventilation upgrades required by Tennessee’s current building code. After our on-site measurement you’ll receive a line-item estimate with optional upgrades (synthetic underlayment, high-profile ridge vents, impact-rated shingles) so you can see exactly where every dollar goes.
What steps do you take to protect my property and clean up after the job?
Before tear-off we lay heavy-duty tarps over landscaping, AC units, and pool areas. Plywood shields protect siding and windows. We use hydraulic dump trailers positioned close to the eaves to minimize debris scatter. Magnetic rollers sweep the yard and driveway for nails at the end of each workday and again after final inspection. Gutters are cleared of granules, and we walk the property with you to confirm it’s spotless. All roofing waste is recycled or disposed of at a licensed facility, and your warranty packet plus final photos are delivered within 24 hours of completion.
