About Memphis Premium Roofing: Licensed Roofing Pros in TN
Memphis Premium Roofing works the Tennessee side of the Mid-South, from downtown and Midtown out through Bartlett, Collierville, Germantown and Millington, north to Covington and Atoka, and east to Somerville and Oakland. Houses, small commercial buildings and the distribution space this city runs on.
The reason our estimates read differently is that we treat the roof as part of the building, not a finish on top of it. Shelby County is a Seismic Design Category D jurisdiction that adopted the seismic retrofit appendix of the existing building code and declined the wind retrofit appendix. That is not an abstraction. It decides whether a covering is too heavy, whether a chimney needs more than flashing, and whether a parapet is maintenance or structure.
When not to hire us. If your roof is sound and simply needs a repair, do not pay us to replace it, and any inspection that ends with us saying so costs you nothing. If you want a tile roof on an existing stick-framed house without an engineer's letter, we are the wrong company.
And if the finding is unreinforced masonry above the roof line, you need a structural engineer before you need a roofer, and we will give you a name rather than a quote.
If you have a roofing project in Memphis, the fastest way to get a real number is a free on-site estimate.

How Memphis Premium Roofing works
How a job with Memphis Premium Roofing runs, start to finish
Site visit first, always. We measure, look at the real condition of the work area, and ask what you are actually trying to solve — then you get an itemized free estimate in writing with materials, scope and a realistic date on it.
Once the work starts, the same crew stays on the job until it is done. We protect the surrounding area, clean up daily, and tell you the moment something under the surface changes the plan, because the alternative is a surprise invoice and nobody wants that conversation. a written workmanship warranty backs the finished work.
What we will not do
We do not quote a roofing job over the phone, take deposits before a written scope exists, or bid work we are not set up to do properly. If your project needs a different trade, we say so and point you at someone who does it well. Losing a job is cheaper than doing one badly in Memphis.
Where Memphis Premium Roofing works and who we work with
Memphis, TN first, then the surrounding communities of the Mid-South: Bartlett, Collierville, Germantown, Millington, Arlington, Lakeland, Covington, Atoka and more. Each of those has its own page with local detail rather than a copy of this one.
Work splits roughly between homeowners and commercial property — offices, retail, restaurants, apartment complexes and HOA boards across the Mid-South. Start with the Memphis services, the Memphis Premium Roofing homepage, or just call (844) 511-2320.
Why Memphis Chooses Memphis Premium Roofing
- ✓Every proposal states the new covering's dead load in pounds per square foot next to the load of whatever comes off, because Shelby County is a Seismic Design Category D jurisdiction and weight is not a decorative question here.
- ✓Our inspection report includes the chimney's anchorage at the roof line, the parapet's unbraced height and the deck fastening where it meets masonry, three findings that are almost never on a Memphis roof report.
- ✓We tear off rather than overlay, because a tear-off is the only hour in which the chimney straps, the deck fastening and the top of the wall are all visible at the same time.
- ✓We turn down tile on existing stick-framed houses unless a Tennessee-licensed structural engineer has written down what the framing can carry, and we will help you find that engineer.
- ✓On commercial tilt-ups we treat the perimeter deck fastening as structure and route any new penetration inside a subdiaphragm region to the engineer of record before cutting.
- ✓We say out loud that anchorage work is not an insurance claim in this state, because Tennessee's insurance department is clear that standard policies exclude earthquake damage.
What Memphis Customers Say
Third roofer out and the first one who went in the attic. They found the leak was the chimney counterflashing sitting on the face of the brick with caulk behind it, cut a proper reglet, and repointed above it. Two years and nothing since.
I asked for a quote on a tile look and got a straight answer about what the extra weight meant on our framing, plus a lighter option that costs less and looks close. Nobody else even brought it up. They also told us our back slope had six good years left.
Storm took the ridge and one slope. They quoted the one slope, met the adjuster on the roof with photos already taken, and got the drip edge and the ice-and-water added to the estimate. Crew tarped the same evening and came back when they said they would.
They walked our warehouse roof, cored it in four places, and showed us wet insulation in two corners before recommending anything. Ended up tapered polyiso and eighty mil TPO. They also flagged the parapet and told us to get an engineer on it rather than pretending roofing would fix it.
