Roof replacement

Roof Replacement in Knoxville, done once, done right.

When repairs stop making sense, a full tear-off and a new roof built for East Tennessee's humidity, sun, and storm season is the honest fix. Asphalt shingle or metal, backed by real workmanship and manufacturer warranties.

When replacement is the right call

Roofs in Knoxville age faster than the brochure says. Humid summers and heavy sun dry out shingles and flashing, and every spring storm season finds the weak spots. Replacement is usually the right call when the roof is past 15 to 20 years and repairs keep coming, when shingles are curling or losing granules across whole slopes rather than in one spot, or when a storm has damaged enough area that patching it costs a meaningful fraction of a new roof.

What the job actually involves

  1. Inspection and a real number. The crew looks at the roof in person, free and with no obligation, and gives you the price before anything is scheduled.
  2. Tear-off. The old shingles and underlayment come off so the decking can be checked, rather than burying soft or rotten wood under new material.
  3. Decking repair where needed. Any compromised plywood gets replaced. This is the step that separates a roof that lasts from one that leaks in five years.
  4. Underlayment and flashing. New synthetic underlayment and new flashing at chimneys, valleys, and penetrations, the places East Tennessee roofs fail first.
  5. New roof. Asphalt shingle or metal, installed to manufacturer spec so the materials warranty actually holds.

What a new roof costs in Knoxville

As a ballpark, 2026 national cost guides (Angi, HomeGuide) put a typical asphalt shingle replacement around $5,700 – $12,000, which works out to roughly $3 – $6 per square foot installed. Metal runs higher, commonly $7 – $14 per square foot installed depending on the panel and gauge. Those are market ranges, not quotes. Roof size, pitch, tear-off, and decking condition move the real number, and the calculator on the home page will size the range to your roof. Financing available, so a roof that can't wait doesn't have to.

Good questions

Frequently asked

How much does a roof replacement cost in Knoxville?
As a ballpark, 2026 national cost guides (Angi, HomeGuide) put a typical asphalt shingle replacement around $5,700 - $12,000, roughly $3 - $6 per square foot installed, with metal higher. That's a market range, not a quote. The exact price depends on size, pitch, tear-off, and decking condition, and comes from a free in-person estimate.
How do I know it's time to replace instead of repair?
Age past 15 to 20 years with repeated repairs, curling or granule loss across whole slopes, and storm damage over a large area all point to replacement. If a repair will honestly hold, that's what gets recommended instead, and you're told which case you're in up front.
Asphalt shingle or metal, which should I choose?
Asphalt shingle is the most common and the most affordable up front. Metal costs more but lasts decades longer and stands up well to East Tennessee storm seasons. The crew works on both, so the recommendation follows your roof and budget, not a one-size answer.
Is there a warranty on a new roof?
Yes. Workmanship warranties on the labor plus manufacturer materials warranties, some of which are lifetime on materials.
Is financing available for a roof replacement?
Yes, financing available. Ask when you call and you'll get the current options along with your estimate.
Is the crew licensed and insured?
Yes. The East Tennessee roofing company we connect you with is licensed, bonded, and insured, and has been protecting East Tennessee homes since 2016.
