Farragut, TN
Roofing in Farragut, from Concord Hills to Kingston Pike
Farragut roofs deal with Fort Loudoun Lake wind from the south, summer storms rolling in from the west, and in a lot of neighborhoods, an HOA that wants a say in your shingle color. Here's how we handle all three.

What Farragut roofs are up against
Farragut became a town in 1980. A roof put on in the late 1990s or early 2000s is now 20 to 25 years old, and plenty of those are on their first replacement. Architectural shingles are the norm in the subdivisions; the older homes near Concord and Campbell's Station are a mix.
Summer thunderstorms are the main threat. Knox County saw hail up to 1.5 inches on September 4, 2025 (WBIR) and an EF-2 tornado on August 7, 2023 (National Weather Service, Morristown). Homes on the lake side get more wind across open water. Wind lifts the tabs on older shingles and breaks their seal, and once that seal is gone the next storm peels them back.
The humidity matters too. Knoxville averages about 52 inches of rain a year, and the dark streaks you see on north-facing slopes are algae. It's mostly cosmetic, but it's a reason to pick an algae-resistant shingle when you replace.
Your HOA comes first
Many Farragut subdivisions have covenants that cover roof color and material. Before you pick a shingle:
- Find your HOA's architectural review form (usually on the HOA website or from the management company).
- We'll give you the shingle manufacturer, line and color name, plus a sample photo, for the form.
- Wait for approval in writing before we order material.
We've built that wait into the schedule, so it doesn't hold you up twice.
Permits in Farragut
Farragut is its own town, with its own codes office. The town says a plain re-roof usually doesn't need a building permit. If your job needs structural work, like replacing rafters, a permit may apply. We check with the town for your address, and if a permit is needed, we pull it.
What we'd do on a Farragut roof
- A free drone inspection of every slope, with photos you keep.
- A written price, line by line, with the HOA's color approval attached if you need one.
- Matching ridge caps and an algae-resistant shingle line.
- Cleanup that respects a manicured yard: tarps over the beds, a magnet sweep, the dumpster gone.
Farragut questions
Will my HOA approve a different shingle color?
It depends on your covenants. Some Farragut HOAs list approved colors, some only ask that the color fit the street, and a few want the same color you have now. Bring the manufacturer, the shingle line and the exact color name to the review form, plus a photo of a sample. We supply all three, and we don't order material until the approval is in writing.
Do I need a permit in Farragut?
Usually not. The Town of Farragut says a plain re-roof doesn't typically need a building permit, unless the job needs structural work. Farragut runs its own codes office, separate from the City of Knoxville. If your roof does need a permit, we pull it, put the fee as a line on your price, and show you the permit card on the job.
Common questions
After a storm, should I call my insurance company or a roofer first?
We'd get a free inspection first. It tells you whether there's damage worth a claim before anything goes on your record. If there is, you file the claim with your insurer (it's your claim) and we'll document the damage, write the scope, and meet the adjuster on the roof with you. If there isn't, you've lost nothing but an hour.
Will my HOA have a say in my roof?
In a lot of Knoxville-area subdivisions, yes. Many covenants set rules on shingle color and sometimes material, and the HOA wants an approval form before work starts. We give you the manufacturer, line and color name, and a sample photo, for the form. We order material after you have approval in writing, so nobody has to tear off a roof the HOA rejects.
What about my yard, flower beds and nails in the driveway?
We tarp the beds and anything near the house, carry debris straight to the dumpster, and run a magnet sweep over the yard and driveway when we finish. Before we leave, we walk the property with you. If you find a nail later, call us and we'll come back for it.
Is the drone inspection really free?
Yes. There's no charge and nothing to sign. We fly your roof, take close-up photos of every slope, and go through them with you. The photos are yours whether you hire us or not. If your roof is in good shape, we'll tell you that and leave.
Which areas do you cover?
Knoxville and the towns around it: Farragut, Hardin Valley, Karns, Powell, Oak Ridge, Maryville, Lenoir City, Sevierville and Seymour. That covers parts of Knox, Blount, Loudon, Anderson and Sevier counties. If you're just outside that list, text us your address and we'll tell you honestly whether we can get to you.
