FAQs
How do I know my Walland home needs a full roof replacement instead of a repair?
Several red flags indicate it is more cost-effective to replace the entire roof. Look for widespread shingle curling or loss of granules, multiple active leaks in different areas, sagging decking, and roofs that are 20-25 years old. In Walland’s humid, storm-prone climate, hail impact and high winds can accelerate wear. During our free inspection we photograph problem areas, check attic ventilation, measure moisture levels, and give you an honest recommendation on whether a repair will buy you meaningful time or if a full replacement is the safer investment.
What roofing materials do you offer for replacements in Walland, and how do I choose the right one?
We install architectural asphalt shingles, designer shingles, standing-seam metal, and synthetic slate. Architectural shingles remain the most popular in Walland because they balance cost and durability (30-50 year ratings). Metal reflects heat and sheds snow quickly—great for cabin roofs near the foothills—and carries a 40-year paint warranty. Synthetic slate provides a high-end look at half the weight of real slate. We review your budget, aesthetic goals, neighborhood standards, and Blount County wind-uplift requirements, then present side-by-side samples and price comparisons so you can make an informed choice.
What is the typical roof-replacement timeline and what should I expect during the project?
Most Walland homes take 1–2 days for asphalt shingles and 2–3 days for metal, weather permitting. Day 1: our crew protects landscaping with tarps, removes the old roofing down to the decking, and replaces any rotten wood. Day 2: we install underlayment, drip edge, flashing, shingles or metal panels, ridge vent, and accessories. We perform magnet nail sweeps and full clean-up each afternoon. A final walkthrough and drone photos document the finished roof. We schedule around East Tennessee’s afternoon storms, keeping you updated if weather pushes work back.
Do I need permits or HOA approval in Walland, and do you handle that paperwork?
Blount County requires a residential re-roof permit whenever decking is replaced or the roofing type changes. If your property is inside an HOA—such as Saddle Ridge or Country Meadows—you may also need architectural review. Our office pulls all county permits, schedules inspections, and provides color samples or spec sheets the HOA may request. Permit fees are included in your proposal, so you have one less task to worry about.
How much does a roof replacement cost in Walland and what financing options are available?
Costs depend on roof size, pitch, and material. As a guideline: architectural shingles run $4.25–$6.50 per square foot, standing-seam metal $7.50–$11, and synthetic slate $9–$13. All quotes are turnkey—covering tear-off, disposal, permits, materials, labor, and clean-up—with no surprise fees. We partner with GreenSky and Service Finance to offer 0% interest for 12 months or low-fixed-rate plans up to 120 months. We also assist with insurance claims if storm damage is involved, meeting the adjuster onsite to substantiate replacement needs.
What warranties and post-installation support do you provide?
Every roof includes the manufacturer’s material warranty (30-50 years for shingles, 40 years for metal paint, lifetime for synthetic slate) plus our own 10-year workmanship warranty that covers leaks caused by installation errors. You receive a written warranty packet, digital photos, and maintenance tips. We offer an optional annual inspection program—free for the first year and $99 thereafter—to clear debris, check sealant, and ensure your new Walland roof performs for decades. If you ever sell your home, both warranties are transferable, adding value to your property.
