Our process

Four steps. No surprises. No high-pressure sales.

We’ve refined the same simple process across 5,000 roofs. Free inspection, written estimate, install, final walk. The number you see at the start is the number you pay at the end.

  1. 01

    Free inspection within 48 hours

    We come out within two days, walk the roof, fly the drone, hand you a written 21-point report and photos. No sales pitch, no upsell.

  2. 02

    Written estimate — line item by line item

    Shingle, underlayment, ice & water shield, ridge vent, flashing, labor. Each line priced. No 'mystery scope,' no 'as-needed' charges.

  3. 03

    Install — one or two days, no surprises

    GAF Master Elite installation. Site protected with magnetic sweeps for nails. Lifetime workmanship warranty on every replacement.

  4. 04

    Final walk & warranty handoff

    We walk the property with you, sweep again, hand you the manufacturer warranty and our lifetime workmanship coverage. Transferable once to the next homeowner.

We don’t pay for reviews and we don’t buy leads. These are Middle TN homeowners whose roofs we’ve put hands on in the last 90 days. Full Google reviews linked from each.

★★★★★
Hail took out half my roof in the March storm. Ironclad had a tarp on it the same afternoon and walked the adjuster through every shingle. Full scope, zero out-of-pocket beyond my deductible. Roof was done in two days.
★★★★★
Got three estimates. The other two said 'full replacement, $22k.' Tyrone climbed up, took twenty photos, and said the soft spot was a single sheet of decking. $850 repair. Honest people are rare.
★★★★★
Used Ironclad for our last house in Brentwood and they were the first call when we bought the new one. Derek remembered my name eight years later. That's not customer service — that's how a family business runs.

Common questions

What Middle TN homeowners ask first.

Will my homeowner's insurance cover storm damage?
Almost always — if the damage is from a single storm event (hail, wind, falling debris), it's covered. We file the claim, document the damage, meet your adjuster on site, and negotiate to full scope. You pay your deductible. We've never had a denied claim we couldn't appeal.
What does 'lifetime workmanship warranty' actually mean?
If anything we install fails because of how we installed it — flashing leaks, nail pops, ridge vent issues, anything craft-related — we fix it free, for as long as you own the home. It transfers once to the next homeowner. Separate from (and on top of) the manufacturer's shingle warranty.
Do you offer financing?
Yes. Through our financing partner we offer 0% APR for 18 months, or fixed-rate plans up to 10 years. Soft credit pull (no impact to your score) to check eligibility. We talk through both insurance-paid and self-paid options on every estimate.
How long does a roof replacement take?
Most single-family Middle TN homes are one day for tear-off and install. Larger or steeper homes take two days. We protect landscaping with tarps, do a magnetic sweep for nails twice a day, and leave the driveway and yard cleaner than we found them.
What shingles do you install?
Our standard install is GAF Timberline HDZ architectural shingles (50-year limited manufacturer warranty). We also install Owens Corning Duration and CertainTeed Landmark on request. Metal, cedar shake, and tile are available for custom homes.
When is Middle TN's storm season?
Severe storms peak March–May (hail and tornadoes) and November (straight-line winds), but we see storm damage year-round. If a storm rolls through your neighborhood and you see shingles in the yard — call us. Tarp-and-document is always free for hail-belt homeowners.
Do you do gutters at the same time as the roof?
Yes — and we recommend it. New 5" or 6" seamless aluminum, color-matched on the truck, with optional leaf-guard. Installed the day after the roof finishes. Bundling saves about $400 vs. doing them separately.
What does 'GAF Master Elite' mean and why does it matter?
Master Elite is GAF's top installer certification — only ~3% of US roofing contractors hold it. It requires factory training, financial stability, insurance verification, and a clean BBB record reviewed annually. It also unlocks the strongest manufacturer warranties (Golden Pledge / Silver Pledge) that non-Elite installers can't offer.
