FAQs
How do I know my asphalt-shingle roof in Mountain City needs a full replacement instead of a repair?
Several warning signs point to a complete replacement: 1) widespread granule loss that exposes the black asphalt mat; 2) curled, cracked, or missing shingles over large roof sections; 3) multiple or chronic leaks that reappear after spot repairs; 4) moss or algae growth that has lifted shingles; 5) sagging roof decking visible from the street or attic; and 6) a roof age of 18–25 years, which is the typical service life for three-tab or architectural shingles in Mountain City’s freeze-thaw climate. During our free inspection we photograph trouble spots, check attic ventilation, and measure moisture so you can make an informed replace-vs-repair decision.
What is the typical cost to replace an asphalt-shingle roof in Mountain City and what factors affect the price?
Most full replacements in Mountain City fall between $4.25 and $6.75 per square foot ($8,500–$13,500 for a 2,000 sq ft roof). Your final investment depends on: 1) shingle grade (three-tab, architectural, or Class 4 impact-rated); 2) roof size and pitch—steeper roofs require extra safety setup and labor; 3) number of existing layers to tear off and dispose of; 4) condition of the decking—any rotten sheathing must be replaced; 5) upgraded underlayments such as ice-and-water shield along eaves and valleys; 6) flashing, ventilation, and gutter work; and 7) access—mountainous terrain or limited driveway space can raise debris-haul costs. We provide a written, line-item estimate so you see exactly where every dollar goes.
How long will the roof replacement take, and do I need to leave my home during the project?
A typical single-family asphalt-shingle replacement takes 1–3 days once materials are on-site. Day 1: setup, tear-off, and deck inspection; Day 2: underlayment, flashing, and most shingle installation; Day 3 (if needed): ridge cap, ventilation components, and thorough clean-up with magnetic nail sweepers. Complex roofs or surprise decking repairs can add a day. You may stay home; however, expect hammering noise and some vibration. We protect landscaping, set up debris chutes, and perform end-of-day clean-ups so you always have safe access to entrances and driveways.
Are there specific asphalt shingles you recommend for Mountain City’s climate and elevation?
Yes. Our area sees high UV exposure, wind gusts over 90 mph, and frequent freeze-thaw cycles. We recommend: • Architectural (laminated) shingles with a 130 mph wind rating and algae-resistant copper granules. • Optional Class 4 impact-resistant shingles if your home is under tall pines or is frequently hit by hail—many insurers give premium discounts. • A full ice-and-water membrane along all eaves and valleys to prevent ice-dam leaks. • Ridge-vent systems matched with adequate intake vents to offset temperature swings common at 2,400-ft elevation. We bring sample boards so you can choose colors that meet both HOA guidelines and ENERGY STAR reflectivity requirements.
Do I need a permit for a roof replacement in Mountain City, and will your company handle the paperwork?
Yes. Johnson County requires a residential reroof permit that verifies deck nailing, underlayment type, and shingle wind rating. An inspection is performed after tear-off and again upon completion. As a licensed and insured Mountain City roofing contractor, we pull the permit on your behalf, schedule inspections, and post the permit placard on-site. Any fees are included in your written proposal, so there are no surprise city charges later.
What kinds of warranties and maintenance should I expect after my new asphalt-shingle roof is installed?
You receive two layers of protection: 1) a manufacturer’s limited lifetime warranty (non-prorated for the first 10–15 years) that covers defects in the shingles themselves; and 2) our 10-year workmanship warranty that backs the installation, flashing, and ventilation details. To keep the warranty valid, perform simple maintenance: clear gutters twice a year, trim back branches to prevent abrasion, and schedule an annual roof checkup—free for our replacement customers. We document inspections digitally so you have proof of care if a warranty claim ever arises.
