FAQs
What exactly is covered in your free roofing inspection for homeowners in Sharps Chapel?
Our complimentary inspection is a full-roof assessment conducted by a trained, licensed roofing specialist. We examine shingles or metal panels, flashing, fasteners, vents, chimneys, gutters, attic ventilation, and the roof deck (from inside the attic, if accessible). We also look for storm, wind, and hail damage that may be hidden from ground level. After the walk-through we provide a written report with photos, a condition grade, life-expectancy estimate, and any repair or replacement recommendations—all at no cost or obligation.
How do I schedule a free inspection and how long will the visit take?
Simply call our Sharps Chapel office, submit the online form, or message us on social media. Most inspections can be booked within 48 hours. A standard single-family home takes 30–45 minutes on the roof and another 15–20 minutes to review findings with you, so plan on about an hour total. Larger homes or outbuildings may take longer, but we’ll give you an accurate time window when we confirm your appointment.
Does the free inspection commit me to buying roof repairs or a new roof from you?
Absolutely not. The inspection and written report are 100 % obligation-free. If your roof is in good shape, we’ll tell you. If it needs minor maintenance you can even DIY, we’ll point that out too. Should you request an estimate for professional repairs or replacement, we’ll provide clear pricing, but the decision is entirely yours. We never use high-pressure sales tactics—our goal is to give you reliable information so you can make an informed choice.
How do you decide whether my roof needs repair or full replacement?
We evaluate four primary factors: (1) extent of damage—isolated shingle loss versus widespread granule loss or metal panel corrosion; (2) age of the roofing system relative to its material life expectancy; (3) structural integrity of the decking and underlayment; and (4) cost efficiency—if repairs approach 30–40 % of replacement cost or will only extend roof life a year or two, replacement is usually recommended. We’ll walk you through photos and data so you can see the reasoning behind our recommendation.
What roofing materials do you install and which perform best in Sharps Chapel’s climate?
We install architectural asphalt shingles, standing-seam and exposed-fastener metal, synthetic slate, and specialty impact-rated products. For most homes in Sharps Chapel, architectural shingles with a Class 3 or 4 impact rating or 26–24 gauge standing-seam metal perform best against our mix of sun, summer storms, and the occasional hail event. Metal offers 40–50-year longevity and superior energy efficiency, while high-definition shingles provide a traditional look at a lower upfront cost. During the inspection we’ll discuss goals, budget, and HOA requirements to help you choose wisely.
Are you licensed and insured, and what warranties do you provide on new roofs and repairs?
Yes. We hold a Tennessee Home Improvement License, maintain $2 million in general liability insurance, and carry full workers’ compensation on every crew member. All roof replacements come with a manufacturer’s material warranty of up to 50 years (non-prorated in the first 10–15 years, depending on product) plus our own 10-year workmanship guarantee. Repairs are backed by a 2-year labor warranty unless otherwise specified. You’ll receive all warranty documents in writing before any work begins so you’re fully protected.
