FAQs
What makes your storm-tough asphalt shingles different from standard shingles?
Our shingles are engineered with a multi-layer fiberglass mat, polymer-modified asphalt, and a double-sealant strip that bonds the tabs together. This design gives them a 130-mph wind rating, Class 4 impact resistance, and 10-year algae-resistant granules—far exceeding the performance of basic 3-tab shingles sold at big-box stores.
How well do the shingles stand up to Strawberry Plains’ severe weather?
Strawberry Plains experiences strong spring storms, high humidity, and the occasional hail event. The shingles we install are tested to UL 2218 (hail impact) and ASTM D7158 (wind uplift). They resist granule loss, cracking, and blow-offs even when gusts hit 100+ mph, giving homeowners reliable protection during Tennessee’s volatile weather seasons.
How long does a typical roof replacement take and will my property be disrupted?
Most homes between 1,500 and 3,000 sq ft can be completed in one day; larger or more complex roofs may take two. We start with a full tear-off at dawn, install underlayment and ice & water shield, then shingle, flash, and clean up by sunset. Dumpsters are placed on protective driveway boards, magnetic rollers collect stray nails, and we leave gutters and landscaping exactly as we found them—only with a tougher roof overhead.
Will storm-tough asphalt shingles improve my home’s energy efficiency?
Yes. Many of our color blends carry the ENERGY STAR® label because their solar-reflective granules lower roof surface temperature by up to 15 °F. That can translate to 7–15 % savings on summer cooling bills. Proper attic ventilation, which we verify or upgrade during installation, further enhances energy performance and shingle longevity.
What kind of warranty and maintenance should I expect?
You receive a 50-year, non-prorated manufacturer’s warranty covering material defects plus our own 10-year workmanship guarantee. Maintenance is minimal: keep gutters clear, trim overhanging limbs, and schedule a free annual inspection so we can re-seal flashing or replace the occasional damaged shingle before it becomes a leak.
Do I need a full replacement, or can you repair sections of my existing roof?
If less than 20 % of the shingles are damaged and the deck is sound, a localized repair may be economical. We match shingle color and profile, replace underlayment, and reseal the area. However, widespread granule loss, curled tabs, or leaks in multiple areas usually indicate the roof is near the end of its service life, in which case a full replacement provides better protection and qualifies for the full warranty coverage.
