MI Homesiding & Roofing
Roof replacement, repair, and hail damage inspection for New Market homes — from the 1960s streets to the newest construction on River Mist.
New Market sits in open valley farmland, and that openness is the whole story.
There is no ridge line and no tree cover to break up a storm before it reaches the house. Roofs here take hail and wind straight on, with nothing in between. And impact damage rarely announces itself — granule loss from a hail event looks like normal aging from the driveway, and the roof keeps shedding water for another two or three seasons before the mat underneath gives out. By then the insurance window has usually closed.
The housing runs from Pine View in the 1960s through Holston View Farm in 2023. Different ages, same exposure.

Mel and his team were extremely thorough in identifying and correcting a water leakage problem from the top of our deck into the enclosed sun room below. They were both professional and courteous and provided great follow up after the job was completed. I highly recommend MI Homesiding & Roofing for any problem that involves water leakage into your home. I will definitely use MI in the future.Posted on Google![]()

Highly recommend MI Homesiding! They completed a major home exterior project for us including replacing and painting our siding as well as replacing our roofing and gutters. They did an excellent job and we began getting compliments immediately from our neighbors about it! Mel was very communicative and proactive, listened to our questions and ideas, and took care of things in a timely manner. His team was always professional and the work is just superb! We not only recommend MI Homesiding, we will be using them again for future projects ourselves.Posted on Google![]()

I found MI Homesiding & Roofing through their YouTube channel and called with a few questions about siding. Even though I’m not located in Tennessee and wouldn’t be hiring them directly, they answered the phone right away and took the time to answer every question in detail. They provided specific, helpful information and even assisted me in finding a contractor in my area. It’s rare to find a company so willing to help someone who isn’t even a local customer. Awesome people, excellent service, and truly knowledgeable. Thank you so much!Posted on Google![]()

We are very happy with MI Homesiding's workmanship and dedication to achieve the best results for our Hardyboard residing. Mel answered our calls promptly; addressing and tending to any question we had. As with any home renovation, we ran into minor issues when we removed the siding the flashing was old and damaged. MI siding was more than happy to give us a fair estimate and replace the flashing to the siding. Porta-potty & dumpster were dropped off immediately prior to process, and removed with equal precision. Workers were diligent maintaining a safe & clean work area; cleaning remnant debris on last day. We recommended MI to our neighbors, and are having them back to caulk & paint. They did an excellent job at a fair price.Posted on Google![]()

MI Home Siding LLC did an excellent job on my home. Mel Hernandez and his crew worked on my siding, roofing, gutters, and exterior painting. They showed up on time, explained everything clearly, and completed the work as promised. The quality of the work was great, and they treated my home with care and respect. I really appreciated their honesty and communication throughout the project. I highly recommend MI Home Siding LLC to anyone looking for exterior work in Knoxville.”
Roof age here tracks the decade the street went in, and every one of these lots shares the same exposure.
Mid-to-late 1960s, with homes on record from 1966 through 1970.
At fifty-plus years these roofs are several coverings deep, and on an exposed valley lot each of those roofs has taken hail events that may or may not have been documented at the time.
Early 1990s construction, with homes on record from 1991.
Thirty years puts these into the second replacement cycle. Worth checking the flashing at chimneys and transitions, which on housing this age has usually been sealed rather than replaced.
Early 2000s, with homes on record from 2003.
Twenty years is when the field can still look acceptable while the components around it are failing — pipe boots, sealants, and flashing that has been through enough freeze-thaw cycles to loosen. Our guide on how long a roof lasts in Tennessee covers what shortens that number.
Mid-2000s, with homes on record from 2005.
Same window: the first roof approaching the end of its service life on a lot with no wind protection. Worth an inspection after any significant storm rather than waiting for a leak.
Homes on record from 2012, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2020, 2022 and 2024.
This subdivision is the reason we never assume condition from a neighborhood name — a decade of continuous building means a decade of different roofs on the same streets.
New construction, with homes on record from 2023.
The material has decades left. What is worth documenting is what was installed and what the manufacturer warranty requires, before the builder’s warranty period runs out.
Most roofing companies will not put a price on a page. We will. These are the ranges we quote in New Market, priced by roof size in squares — one square is 100 square feet of roof surface.
| Roof Size | Typical Range |
|---|---|
| 20 SQ (2,000 sq ft roof) | $9,500 – $13,500 |
| 25 SQ (2,500 sq ft roof) | $12,000 – $17,000 |
| 30 SQ (3,000 sq ft roof) | $14,500 – $20,000 |
| 35 SQ (3,500 sq ft roof) | $17,000 – $23,500 |
| 40 SQ (4,000 sq ft roof) | $19,000 – $27,000 |
On-site estimates are free for standard roof replacements. For complex inspections — active leaks, previous repair work, or conditions we cannot verify from the ground — we charge $350, credited back in full if you move forward.
We ask 33% at signing to cover materials. The rest is tied to progress on the job. Never half up front.
📞 (865) 243-1243Open valley farmland means nothing slows a storm down before it reaches your roof.
No ridge line, no tree cover, no neighboring structures to break the wind. Hail arrives at full velocity and wind hits the roof plane without deflection. That is a different loading condition from a roof in a wooded subdivision five miles away.
The problem with hail is that it does not look like damage. Bruised shingles and granule loss read as normal aging from the ground, and the roof keeps working. Two or three seasons later the mat underneath fails, the leak starts, and the insurance claim window closed a year and a half ago. That is why storm damage roof repair is a documentation job before it is a roofing job.
After any significant storm in New Market we inspect the roof for impact bruising while the evidence is still there, whether or not there is an active leak.
The shortcut here is replacing a hail-damaged roof without documenting the hail.
A crew that shows up, tears off, and installs a new roof has solved the immediate problem and cost you the claim. The evidence is now in a dumpster, and the insurer has nothing to assess.
The documentation is the part that matters on an exposed valley lot, because on a roof this exposed it will happen again. Photographs of the impact marks, the date of the event, the affected slopes, and a written scope — that is what makes the difference between a claim and an out-of-pocket replacement.
We document before we tear off, every time.
If structural rot, damaged decking, or compromised framing is discovered during tear-off, we stop and document it with photos. We explain what we found and why it matters, then provide a written Change Order before moving forward.
We never cover hidden damage with new work.
We walk the roof and check the attic. Deck condition, ventilation, flashing at every transition, and any evidence of previous repair work. On a storm job the impact marks are photographed by slope and dated before anything comes off the roof.
Itemized by tear-off, underlayment, shingle, flashing, ventilation, and decking allowance. You see what each line costs.
Old material comes off and the deck gets inspected before anything new goes down. Decking replacement is priced by the sheet.
Underlayment, starter, drip edge, field, ridge cap, pipe boots, collars, and flashing at every penetration and transition.
Sized to the attic, not to what was there before. Old vents are removed or closed as the new system requires.
Site cleared, magnet run, and a final walkthrough before we leave.
Our team has been working exteriors in East Tennessee since 2004, and roofing sits alongside the siding, flashing and gutter work that connects to it. On an exposed valley lot that matters, because the same hail event that marks a roof usually marks the wall and the gutters too.

We also cover the rest of the exterior in New Market: roofing, windows, decks and exterior painting.
We serve New Market and the surrounding communities across Jefferson County and the Holston valley, working within a 40-mile radius of Knoxville.
Most full replacements land between $9,500 and $27,000, depending on roof size, pitch and whether decking needs replacing. New Market runs close to the regional average, so most homes fall in the middle of that range. The full table is above.
Usually you do not, from the ground. Bruised shingles and granule loss look like normal aging, and the roof keeps shedding water for two or three more seasons. That is why we inspect for impact bruising after a storm rather than waiting for a leak — by the time it leaks, the claim window has often closed.
Yes. We document the damage with photos by slope, date the event, provide the written scope, and work with the adjuster through the claim.
Not before it is documented. Once the old material is in a dumpster the insurer has nothing to assess, and the claim goes with it. We photograph the damage before anything comes off.
We stop, photograph it, and issue a written Change Order priced by the sheet before continuing. We never cover damaged decking with new shingles.
No. We ask 33% at signing, which covers materials, and the rest is tied to progress on the job.
Whether the roof is sixty years old in Pine View or a year old on River Mist, the first job on an open valley lot is finding out what the last storm actually did.
