The most effective roof replacement is the one that addresses all the needs of your roofing system. When we replace a roof, it’s more than just tearing off old shingles and laying new ones. Replacing a roof means examining each part of your roof system and carefully planning what we need to do to create the best possible roof. Some things we look for when replacing a roof include replacing fascia, checking for puncture holes, air gun nailing mistakes, cracking and blistering, staining, and discoloration.

The short answer is: it depends. The long answer is: usually a homeowners insurance plan can cover most damages if the damage occurred suddenly or due to an accident.

Performing a reroof on your home does improve your home’s value. How much will depend on how old your home is, the material of your roof, and the style of roofing performed.

What Is Your Reroofing Process?

  • Inspection: Before anything else, we thoroughly inspect your roof for signs of damage, leaks, or rot.

  • Planning: Once we know what areas we need to especially target, we’ll start planning. This means drawing up plans, taking measurements, and creating a timeline for the project.

  • Preparation: Next, we gather all the information and materials needed, lay down tarps to catch any debris, and then our team will begin the removal process.

  • Removal: First, we remove the loose nails, shingles, and other debris that might be on your roof. Then we take things apart piece by piece so we can begin the repair process.

  • Repairs: During this stage, our team will repair any damage to the roof deck and also make roof flashing repairs and other key roof structures. This step is also usually done as we perform the installation.

  • Installation: During this phase our crew will be installing your brand-new roof in place of the old one. Repairs are also performed during this part of the process.

  • Cleanup: Any extra debris or materials will then be cleaned up and taken away so you don’t have to worry about it.

  • Final Inspection: To make sure everything is in peak condition, we’ll inspect our work and give it our seal of approval.

Signs You Need a Roof Replacement

Not sure if it’s time to replace your roof? Over time, even the most durable roofs wear down due to age, weather, and structural stress. Here are the most common signs that indicate your roof may need to be replaced:

  1. If you notice curling, cracked, or missing shingles, it's often a sign that the roofing system is failing. This can leave your home exposed to leaks and moisture damage.
  2. Recurring leaks or water spots on ceilings and walls usually mean the underlayment or decking has been compromised, making a roof replacement more cost-effective than ongoing repairs.
  3. A sagging roof deck or soft, spongy areas underfoot can indicate structural damage due to trapped moisture, rot, or weakened decking that needs full replacement.
  4. If you find roofing granules collecting in your gutters or downspouts, your shingles are likely deteriorating and no longer offering full protection.
  5. Algae, mold, or moss growing on your roof can trap moisture and accelerate deterioration. This is especially problematic on older asphalt roofs.
  6. Tennessee storms can be brutal. If your home has been hit by hail, high winds, or falling debris, it's important to inspect for hidden damage that may justify a replacement.
  7. If your roof is more than 20-25 years old, it may be nearing the end of its expected lifespan, especially if it's an asphalt shingle roof. A professional inspection can help you plan ahead before issues become urgent.
