FAQs
What are architectural shingles and how do they differ from traditional three-tab shingles?
Architectural shingles—also called dimensional or laminate shingles—are thicker, multi-layer asphalt shingles designed to mimic the depth and texture of natural slate or cedar. Compared with flat three-tab shingles, they offer better wind resistance (up to 130 mph versus 60–80 mph), improved impact resistance, longer warranties, and a richer, more dimensional appearance that adds curb appeal to homes in Tazewell.
How long can I expect an architectural shingle roof to last in Tazewell’s climate?
In Tazewell, where homes experience hot, humid summers, freeze-thaw cycles, and occasional high-wind events, a properly installed architectural shingle roof typically lasts 25–30 years. Routine maintenance—such as semiannual inspections, prompt repair of minor damage, and adequate attic ventilation—can extend service life toward the upper end of that range.
What advantages do I gain by replacing my siding at the same time as my roof?
Coordinating roofing and siding upgrades ensures a watertight envelope, eliminates mismatched colors, and can reduce labor costs because crews, dumpsters, and scaffolding are mobilized only once. Installing both also allows us to integrate flashing, drip edges, and housewrap seamlessly, improving energy efficiency and protecting wall assemblies from wind-driven rain common in Tazewell’s mountain valleys.
Can you match the color and style of new shingles with my existing siding or exterior trim?
Yes. Architectural shingles come in dozens of color blends—weathered wood, charcoal, slate, desert tan, and more—allowing us to coordinate with vinyl, fiber-cement, or wood siding. We bring full shingle and siding sample boards to your consultation, so you can view them in natural daylight against your home and choose complementary or contrasting palettes.
What is the typical installation timeline for roofing and siding, and what should I expect during the project?
A standard single-family roof replacement in Tazewell takes 1–3 days; adding full siding replacement extends the project to 5–7 days, depending on home size and weather. We start with a pre-job walk-through, protect landscaping with tarps, remove old materials, inspect decking and sheathing, install underlayment, flashing, shingles, and siding, then perform a final quality inspection and cleanup so your property is nail-free before we leave.
Do you offer warranties or financing for roofing and siding projects in Tazewell?
Absolutely. Manufacturers back our architectural shingles with limited lifetime material warranties and optional enhanced coverage when we install full system components. Our workmanship warranty covers installation for 5–10 years depending on package. For budget flexibility, we partner with regional lenders to offer 0 % promotional financing or low-interest plans with terms up to 144 months, subject to credit approval.
