FAQs
How can I tell if my Sevierville home needs a full roof replacement or just minor repairs?
Warning signs include missing or curling shingles, recurring leaks, widespread granule loss, sagging roof decking, and daylight visible in the attic. Because Sevierville experiences strong UV exposure, high winds, and heavy spring rains, small problems can accelerate quickly. We offer free, no-obligation inspections: our technician documents damage with photos, checks attic ventilation and moisture levels, and then explains whether targeted repairs or a full replacement will give you the best long-term value.
What roofing materials are most durable for Sevierville’s climate?
Architectural asphalt shingles and standing-seam metal panels are the two most popular choices. Architectural shingles have a thicker profile, Class A fire rating, and 30–50-year manufacturer warranties. Metal roofing—typically 24-gauge galvanized steel or aluminum—lasts 50+ years, resists hail impacts, and reflects radiant heat, lowering cooling costs in hot Tennessee summers. We also offer synthetic slate and high-definition designer shingles for homeowners seeking specific aesthetics without sacrificing durability.
How long does a roof replacement usually take from start to finish?
An average single-family home (2,000–3,000 sq ft) takes 1–2 days once materials arrive. Day 1 covers tear-off, decking repairs, ice-and-water shield, and underlayment installation. Day 2 is dedicated to laying new shingles or metal panels, flashing, ventilation accessories, and a thorough cleanup with magnetic rollers. Weather delays are possible, but we monitor local forecasts closely and secure the roof with waterproof tarps if storms pop up.
Will my homeowners insurance cover the cost of a roof replacement?
If damage is caused by a covered peril—wind, hail, falling debris—your policy may pay all or part of the replacement cost, minus your deductible. We conduct a detailed storm-damage inspection, provide an itemized report formatted for adjusters, and meet on-site with your insurance company to advocate for full code-compliant replacement, including upgraded underlayment and ventilation required by current Tennessee building codes.
What makes your roof installations more durable than a basic replacement?
We follow a "system" approach: 1) tear off down to the decking to inspect for hidden rot; 2) replace bad wood with APA-rated sheathing; 3) install self-adhering ice-and-water barrier on eaves and valleys; 4) use synthetic, breathable underlayment instead of felt; 5) upgrade flashing to corrosion-resistant aluminum or copper; 6) add ridge vents or solar-powered vents to control attic heat and humidity; and 7) fasten shingles or panels with manufacturer-specified nails or screws, never staples. Every roof comes with a 10-year workmanship warranty plus the full manufacturer warranty.
Do I need to leave my house during the roof replacement, and how will the project affect my daily routine?
You’re welcome to stay home. Expect hammering, compressor noise, and foot traffic on the roof during daylight hours (usually 7 a.m.–5 p.m.). We protect landscaping with tarps, move patio furniture, and keep driveways clear for material delivery. Pets may be stressed by noise, so many clients choose to board them or confine them to a quiet room. After each workday we magnet-sweep for nails and remove debris so you can safely use your yard and driveway.
