Roofing Materials for Chattanooga Homes

Choose a System With Local Conditions in Mind.

Chattanooga-area roofing systems must contend with frequent rainfall, seasonal storms, wind, summer heat and changing temperatures. Material selection is only one part of performance—the roof deck, flashing, ventilation and installation details also matter.

Rain & Drainage Roof slope, flashing and drainage details help move water away from vulnerable areas.
Wind Exposure Roofing materials must be installed according to system and manufacturer requirements.
Heat & Ventilation Roofing and attic performance should be considered as part of the complete system.
Storm Damage Material condition should be evaluated after significant hail or wind events.
