Frequently Asked Questions

Honest answers about roofing costs, materials, insurance claims, and more β€” from Franklin, TN’s trusted roofing company since 2006.

πŸ’° Costs & Financing

How much does a roof replacement cost in Franklin, TN?

Roof replacement costs in Middle Tennessee typically range from $8,000 to $20,000 for most residential homes. The final price depends on your roof’s size, pitch, complexity, the shingle brand and style you choose, and any additional work like decking repairs or flashing replacement. Professional Roofers, Inc. provides free roof inspections and detailed written estimates at no obligation.

How long does a roof replacement take?

Most residential roof replacements are completed in a single day. Our crews can install approximately 35 squares per day. Larger or more complex roofs may take two days. We will give you a clear timeline estimate before the job begins.

Do I have to pay anything up front?

Once a contract is signed, we require a 20% deposit to help cover material costs before work begins. The remaining balance is due at completion after you approve the work. We also offer financing through Sunlight Financial for those who prefer flexible payment options.

🌩️ Insurance & Storm Damage

Do you help with insurance claims for storm or hail damage?

Yes. We guide homeowners through the entire insurance claim process from start to finish. After a free inspection to document the damage, we help you understand what to file, attend the adjuster meeting with you, provide photo documentation and measurements, and handle supplemental claims if the initial payout falls short. If a claim is denied, we can request reinspections or assist with the appraisal process. We work with all major carriers in Tennessee.

Who pays the deductible on an insurance roofing claim?

Homeowners are typically required to pay their insurance deductible as part of the claims process. The specifics can vary depending on your policy and situation. We will walk you through what to expect during your free inspection.

How can I tell if I have hail or wind damage on my roof?

Common signs include missing or lifted shingles, granules collecting in gutters or downspouts, visible dents on metal flashing or gutters, dark spots or bruising on shingles, and interior water stains. The most reliable way to know is a free professional inspection. Call (615) 778-1440 and we will climb the roof, take photos, and give you an honest assessment.

🏠 Materials & Warranty

What roofing brands and shingles do you install?

We are an Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractor and a CertainTeed ShingleMaster certified installer. We install a full range of Owens Corning and CertainTeed shingle lines, including architectural and designer styles. We will recommend the right product for your home’s needs, climate, and budget.

What warranty do you offer on roofing work?

Professional Roofers, Inc. provides a 5-year workmanship warranty on all new roof installations, covering any defects in our installation work. Your shingles also carry manufacturer material warranties from Owens Corning and CertainTeed.

βœ… Licensing & Trust

Is your company licensed and insured in Tennessee?

Yes. Professional Roofers, Inc. holds Tennessee Contractor License #69410 and carries full general liability and workers compensation insurance. We are also BBB A+ accredited since 2008. Proof of insurance is available upon request.

πŸ”¨ The Installation Process

Do you charge for inspections?

Inspections for potential roof replacements are completely free. We will climb the roof, take photos, document any damage, and walk you through our findings with no pressure and no obligation.

What happens if it rains during the roof installation?

We monitor weather closely and will not start a job if significant rain is in the forecast. If unexpected weather rolls in mid-installation, our crew uses tarps to protect the exposed decking until it is safe to continue. Your home is protected throughout the process.

How do I know if I need a full roof replacement or just a repair?

Roofs with widespread hail bruising, significant shingle loss, granule depletion, or age-related wear across most of the surface are typically better candidates for replacement. Isolated damage such as a few missing shingles, a small leak area, or flashing issues can often be repaired. We give honest assessments and will never push a replacement when a repair is the right call.
