Roofers in Memphis, TN
Older houses, big trees, and spring storms. Get matched with a Memphis-area roofer.
What to know locally
Memphis has a lot of older homes, from Midtown bungalows to post-war ranches in Whitehaven, Frayser and East Memphis. Older roofs sometimes have more than one layer of shingles or decking that's seen better days, so ask how the roofer handles surprises once the tear-off starts.
Mature trees are part of what makes Memphis neighborhoods nice, but they drop limbs in storms and keep shade and debris on roofs. Ask about gutter cleanup and whether overhanging limbs should be trimmed first.
If you own a rental, mention it in the form. Many local roofers are used to working with landlords and tenants.
Shelby County Code Enforcement handles building permits for Memphis and unincorporated Shelby County. Ask your contractor about the permit for your job.
Good questions to ask
- Does the City of Memphis or Shelby County need a permit for my job, and who pulls it?
- How many layers of shingles are on my roof now?
- Should limbs over the roof be cut back before the work?
