FAQs
What distinguishes your premium shingles from standard asphalt shingles available in Sevierville?
Our premium shingles are manufactured with thicker, multi-layer construction and enhanced fiberglass mats, giving them superior wind resistance up to 130 mph, Class A fire ratings, and richer dimensional profiles that mimic natural slate or cedar. They also include UV-blocking granules and algae-resistant copper surface treatments, extending color vibrancy and lifespan well beyond standard three-tab shingles.
How long does a typical premium shingle roof installation take in the Sevierville area?
Most residential projects (2,000–3,000 sq ft roofs) are completed in 1–3 days. Day 1 covers tear-off and deck inspection; day 2 focuses on underlayment, flashing, and starter courses; day 3 (if needed) is for ridge caps, ventilation, and a final quality walkthrough. Weather permitting, we schedule jobs to minimize disruption and always leave the property watertight at the end of each day.
Are premium shingles worth the additional cost compared to architectural or three-tab options?
Yes. Although upfront material costs are 15–25 % higher, premium shingles often add 5–7 % to home resale value, qualify for extended manufacturer warranties (up to 50 years non-prorated), and reduce long-term maintenance expenses. In Sevier County’s humid climate, their algae resistance and thicker granules also mean fewer premature replacements, translating into lower lifetime cost of ownership.
What kind of warranty do you provide with a premium shingle roof?
You receive a dual warranty: (1) a manufacturer’s limited lifetime warranty that covers material defects for up to 50 years non-prorated and includes 15-year algae resistance and 130 mph wind coverage; and (2) our 10-year “Roofing Done Right” workmanship guarantee, which means we will repair any installation-related issue at no cost, including labor, disposal, and replacement materials.
How do premium shingles perform in Sevierville’s climate, especially against high winds and heavy rain?
Premium shingles are engineered with reinforced nail zones and self-sealing adhesive strips that lock each course tight. Tested to ASTM D7158 Class H standards, they resist uplift in winds up to 130 mph, well above the local building code requirement. Their enhanced ridge ventilation and high-temperature ice-and-water shield underlayment also help mitigate severe rain runoff and ice dams common in East Tennessee’s seasonal storms.
What maintenance is required to keep a premium shingle roof in top condition?
Maintenance is minimal: (1) have us perform a complimentary roof inspection every 2–3 years or after major storms; (2) keep gutters clear to prevent water backup; (3) trim overhanging branches to reduce debris and shade that can foster algae; and (4) avoid pressure-washing—if staining occurs, use a low-pressure soft-wash with manufacturer-approved cleaners. Following these steps can help the roof last 30–40 years or more.
