Every Roofing Service We Offer in Memphis, TN

A replacement is the only moment you get to change what your roof weighs. In a county the building code treats as Seismic Design Category D, that number belongs on the proposal. We write the new covering's dead load beside the load of whatever comes off.

Roof Leak Repair in Memphis, TN

Memphis loses roofs to wind and hail, not to earthquakes. We lead with that because the rest of this site argues about anchorage and dead load, and it would be dishonest to let that reasoning drift onto a page where it does not belong.

Storm work here follows the spring and early-summer squall lines that cross the Mid-South, and the damage pattern is ordinary: lifted or creased shingles along a windward rake, hail bruising on the softer slopes, a limb through a plane, gutters torn off a fascia that was already soft.

The standard answer to hail is a Class 4 impact shingle. It is also a heavier shingle than the one it replaces, and on a Memphis house that is a trade-off worth saying out loud rather than burying in a product brochure. The impact rating comes from UL 2218, a steel-ball drop test, and the shingles that pass it usually do so because an SBS-modified rubberized asphalt in the mat lets the shingle absorb a strike instead of fracturing.

Here is a fact about Shelby County that almost nobody selling roofs in Memphis will mention. When the city and county adopted the existing building code, they specifically adopted its seismic retrofit appendix and specifically declined its wind retrofit appendix.

On most Memphis houses we recommend a laminated asphalt shingle, and one of the reasons is unglamorous. At roughly two pounds per square foot it is the lightest covering that will do the job, on framing that was designed around exactly that assumption. The specification we quote is a laminated architectural shingle meeting ASTM D3462 with a D7158 Class H wind classification, over a synthetic or SBS-modified underlayment, with self-adhered membrane at the eaves, the valleys and every masonry junction.

Somebody will eventually tell you that a standing seam roof is an earthquake upgrade because metal is light. It is not. Trading a two-pound covering for a one-and-a-half-pound covering changes a building's seismic weight by a rounding error, and we would rather say that than sell on it.

We turn down more tile work in Memphis than we take, and the reason is arithmetic rather than taste. A stick-framed house here was designed around a two-pound covering. Clay and concrete tile weigh several times that, in a county the code assigns to Seismic Design Category D.

On an older Memphis brick building the parapet is a bigger question than the membrane. It is unreinforced masonry standing free above the roof deck, and the existing building code this county adopted contains a table that says how tall it may stand that way. The table limits unbraced parapet height as a ratio of the wall's thickness, tightening as the seismic demand rises and reaching 1.5 where the one-second design acceleration hits 0.4g.

A coating is the lightest way to buy years on a low-slope roof. It is also the way that leaves everything underneath it unexamined. On a Memphis masonry building that trade is worth thinking about rather than defaulting to the cheaper number.

Attic ventilation has nothing to do with earthquakes. We say that plainly, because the rest of this site reasons about anchorage and load, and stretching a good frame across a page it does not cover is how roofing companies talk themselves into nonsense. What ventilation is actually about in Memphis is heat and moisture, in that order.

A skylight is a hole cut in a structural surface. On a low-slope Memphis building that surface is also the diaphragm that carries lateral load across the roof and into the walls. Where the opening goes is a real question.

A gutter does not hang on your house. It hangs on the fascia, and on the brick houses filling Midtown and East Memphis that fascia is a board on a plate above masonry. What the hanger reaches decides how long the run stays straight.

The fascia and soffit on a brick house are the joint where two materials that move at different rates must stay together. That joint is where rot starts here, and it is the one place a roofer can see whether the wall plate is still fastened. Rot in Memphis follows water, and water on these houses follows three paths.

Tarping is a same-day service and a two-week product. We say that first because the most common way a Memphis roof gets worse after a storm is a tarp that was left on until it became the leak it was installed to stop. A tarp fails in predictable ways.

Most of what this site argues about, the chimney anchorage and the parapets and the deck-to-wall connections, is work insurance will not pay for. Tennessee's insurance department states plainly that traditional homeowners and business policies do not cover earthquake damage. Earthquake coverage in this state is a separate purchase, and its deductible is a percentage rather than a flat figure.

Everything listed on this page, residential and commercial, across Memphis and the Mid-South. Work is done by our own crews rather than handed to whoever is cheapest that week, which is the only way the workmanship warranty means anything.

Yes, and it is usually cheaper. Bundling roofing work into one mobilization saves setup, disposal and travel, and it means one crew, one schedule and one written free estimate instead of three contractors blaming each other.

Every one. We come out, measure, look at the real condition of the work area, and put an itemized free estimate in writing with materials and scope spelled out. No charge, no deposit, and no obligation to book.
