Greeneville, TN service area
Greeneville is about an hour from our Bristol shop, and we still make the drive. White's Roofing Co is a family roofing company in Greeneville, TN and across Greene County, doing residential roof replacement, roof repair and metal roofing the same way since 1973.
Since 1973
Tennessee's second-oldest town has a little of every kind of roof: brick homes downtown near the Big Spring, farmhouses out in the county, and newer houses around Tusculum. If you're weighing a roofing company in Greeneville, you want one that knows the difference and shows up when it says it will.
The houses around Main Street and the Andrew Johnson site have been standing a long time. Plenty of them have tall roofs, brick chimneys and more than one layer of shingles from past re-roofs.
Those layers all come off. We replace soft decking, flash every chimney and wall fresh, and put on a roof that suits the house. Here's how a roof replacement unfolds from tear-off to cleanup.
Greene County is farm country, and metal has been on its houses and barns for generations. On a farmhouse sitting out in an open field, it's still the roof that holds up best to wind.
Today's standing-seam panels are a long way from the old tin, though. Concealed fasteners, trim bent to fit, and a clean look that suits an old house fine.
Out around Tusculum there's a mix of family homes and rentals near the university, most with straightforward gable roofs. Asphalt shingle is the usual choice and most of these take one to two days.
Architectural shingles, new underlayment, and fresh flashing go on every one. More on roofing houses across East Tennessee.
Most leaks on older Greeneville houses start where the roof meets a chimney, or in a valley where two slopes come together and the water runs heaviest.
If the rest of the roof is sound, fixing that spot is the right call. Read about our roof repair work and what we look for.
Since Greeneville is a longer drive for us, we plan those jobs carefully. Materials ordered and checked before the trailer leaves, crew lined up for the whole job, and the weather watched so the roof doesn't sit open overnight.
The upside for you is fewer surprises. When we show up, we're ready to finish.
Downtown and out along the bypass, plenty of commercial buildings carry roofs that have been patched one too many times. We re-roof and repair existing buildings like those.
We don't do new commercial construction or sub for builders. If you own the building, look at roofing for existing commercial buildings.
Houses built into the hills south of town often have steep pitches, dormers and more angles than a simple ranch. That's careful work, shingle or metal, and it takes longer.
A big custom roof can run four days or more. We'll tell you plainly before we start so you're not wondering.
Bobby's father started the company in 1973, and he still goes out to look at roofs at 82. Bobby has been roofing since 1991, and his son runs things day to day with him.
We're licensed and insured in Tennessee and Virginia. See everything we do on a roof before you call.
No price over the phone. We'll get on the roof, check the attic, count the layers and look at the flashing. Then you get a real number.
If fixing the problem spot will buy you years, we'll tell you. If the roof is done, we'll price a new shingle or metal roof both ways.
