Run like a Navy job: plan first, then execute
Don Hane served two tours in the U.S. Navy, including Desert Storm, and he brought the Navy’s habits into roofing. Before a crew sets up a ladder in Franklin, you get a written scope that names the shingle line or material, the underlayment, the flashing and the vents. When the job is done, we walk it with you. If something changed along the way, you heard about it before it happened, not on the invoice.
Historic homes and the Historic Zoning Commission
Downtown Franklin has homes from the 1800s and early 1900s with steep roof lines and older framing. Many sit inside the Historic Preservation Overlay, where any roofing change other than an in-kind repair needs a Certificate of Appropriateness from the Historic Zoning Commission. We help you pull together the product specs and photos for that application, and we install materials that respect the original look, including slate and cedar shake.
Forrest Crossing to Berry Farms
Established neighborhoods like Forrest Crossing and Fieldstone Farms are mostly late 20th century homes, and many are on original or second shingle roofs reaching the end of their life. Newer communities like Westhaven and Berry Farms have younger roofs, but tall walls and long valleys mean flashing and ventilation are where leaks start. On those homes we look hard at the details before we blame the shingles.
Franklin’s worst recent roof weather was the January 2026 ice storm, which put about half an inch of freezing rain on the city and dropped limbs from mature trees onto roofs and gutters. The October 12, 2022 downburst also brought trees down between Fairview, Franklin and Brentwood. After a storm we photograph what we find and give you a written report you can send with a claim. The claim itself is between you and your insurer.
