Roof Installation in Murfreesboro, TN

New Roof installation In Murfreesboro
A roof installation isn’t just shingles on decking. It’s everything underneath too: the underlayment, the flashings, the ridge ventilation, the drip edge. Get those wrong and the shingles don’t matter. We’ve been doing this work in Murfreesboro and Rutherford County long enough to know that most of the call backs other contractors deal with trace back to cutting corners on the parts you can’t see. We don’t cut them.
We’re a veteran owned company. Showing up on time, doing the job right, and being straight with you about what’s going on are not marketing lines for us. They’re how we were trained.
Veteran Owned And Operated
Roof Troops is a veteran owned roofing company based in Murfreesboro. We handle full roof replacements on residential homes, and we do it with manufacturer certified materials and a written quote before any work starts.
Storm damage is stressful enough. We document your roof, work with your adjuster, and handle the repair so you’re not navigating your insurer alone.
What's Included In Every Roof Troops Installation
A roof installation is the full job, done right, with nothing hidden. Here is exactly what is included on every Roof Troops installation, so you know what you’re paying for before we start.
Tear Off And Haul Away Of Your Old Roof
We remove your existing roofing material down to the decking and take it off site. You won't come home to a pile of old shingles in your yard.
Deck Inspection And Board Replacement
Before anything goes on top, we walk the decking. If a board is soft, rotted, or damaged, we fix it. We tell you up front what we found and what it costs. No surprises after we've already started.
Ice And Water Shield In The Valleys And Along The Eaves
This is a self-adhering waterproof membrane that goes in the spots where leaks most commonly start. On a Middle Tennessee winter, it's not optional.
Synthetic Underlayment Across The Full Deck
A breathable barrier between your decking and your shingles. It keeps moisture from working its way back in and extends the life of the roof system.
Drip Edge Along All Rakes And Eaves
A metal strip that directs water off the roof edge and away from your fascia. Skipping this leads to rot. We don't skip it.
Shingle Installation To Manufacturer Specs
We install to the nail patterns and fastener requirements that the manufacturers specify. That matters because it's what keeps the warranty valid.
Cleanup
We run a magnet across the yard for nails, clean up the job site, and haul everything off. You won't be finding roofing debris for weeks.
When Repair Isn't Enough Anymore
Repair buys time. Installation solves the problem. Here are the signs that point toward a full replacement.
Your shingles are curling at the edges or cupping in the middle. Both are signs of age and granule loss. Once shingles lose their shape, they’ve lost their ability to shed water cleanly.
You’re seeing granules in your gutters. Granule loss is normal at low levels over time. Heavy loss means the shingle surface is breaking down. That’s not a repair situation.
You have multiple leaks showing up in different spots. One leak is usually a flashing or penetration problem. Multiple leaks in different parts of the roof typically mean the system as a whole is failing.
The roof has been repaired more than once in the last few years. At some point, repeated repairs cost more than a replacement, and they’re buying you less each time.
If you’re not sure where you stand, we’ll come out, look at the roof, take photos, and give you an honest read. If it’s fine, we’ll tell you it’s fine.
Free inspection and estimate
We come out, get on the roof, look at what's there, and give you a written quote. That quote includes everything. If something changes once we're into the job, we call you before we do anything. You won't open the final invoice and wonder where a number came from.
You choose your materials
We'll walk you through your shingle options, explain the difference in cost and warranty, and let you decide. We're GAF, Tamko, and CertainTeed certified, so you have access to the full range of manufacturer warranty coverage. We'll tell you what we'd put on our own roof.
Scheduling And Prep
Once you approve the quote, we schedule the job. We'll let you know exactly when we're arriving. Showing up when we say we will isn't something we treat as optional.
Installation
Our crew does the work. Full tear off, deck inspection, new system installed to manufacturer specs. We don't use subcontractors. The people on your roof are our people.
Cleanup and final walkthrough
When the job is done, we clean up and do a final walkthrough with you. We'll show you what we installed, confirm the work is complete to your satisfaction, and leave you with your warranty documentation.
How A Roof Troops Installation Works
Roofing Materials We Install In Murfreesboro
Different materials have different costs, lifespans, and maintenance requirements. We’ll give you the honest comparison and let you decide.
What Affects The Cost Of A New Roof In Murfreesboro
The honest answer is that price varies depending on several things. We’ll give you an exact number in your written estimate. Here’s what moves it.
Roof size and pitch: A larger roof takes more material and more labor. A steeper pitch costs more to work on safely and takes longer.
Material choice: Entry level architectural shingles cost less than premium products. Metal costs more than asphalt. The right material depends on your budget, your timeline, and how long you plan to be in the home. We’ll tell you the real difference.
Decking condition: If we find damaged boards once we’re into the tear off, replacing them adds cost. We identify this during the inspection where possible. If we find something once we’re into the job, we call you before proceeding.
Complexity of the roof: More valleys, penetrations, dormers, and changes in pitch mean more flashing work and more time. A simple gable roof installs faster than a complex hip roof.
Old roof layers: Most municipalities require tear-off if there are already two layers of shingles. We’ll check before we quote.
Veterans, active duty, reservists, National Guard, police, fire, and EMS receive a 10% discount on all Roof Troops services. We mean it. Your service matters.
We’re veteran owned and we live here: Don Hane founded this company after serving two tours in the U.S. Navy, including Desert Storm. He settled in Middle Tennessee to be near family. He’s not running this business from a call center in another state. There’s a real chance he’ll see you at the grocery store, which means every job is a neighbor’s home, not a number on a schedule.
We’re licensed and insured in Tennessee: Not just registered. Licensed as a contractor in the State of Tennessee, fully insured, and manufacturer certified by GAF, Tamko, and CertainTeed. You can verify all of it. We’ll provide documentation before we start any job.
No surprise add-ons: The quote we give you is the price you pay. If something changes once we’re into the job, we call you before we do anything that adds cost. You make the decision. That’s the whole policy.
We use our own crew: The people installing your roof are Roof Troops employees. We don’t subcontract the work out.
We help with insurance claims: If your roof was damaged by a storm, we’ll work directly with your insurance adjuster, document the damage, and help you through the claim process. You shouldn’t have to navigate that alone.
Manufacturer warranties backed by certified installation: Because we’re certified by GAF, Tamko, and CertainTeed, our installations qualify for their full manufacturer warranty coverage. That’s not available from every contractor.
