MI Homesiding & Roofing
Water coming through your ceiling is never just a surface problem. Most roof leaks we find in Knoxville start at the flashing — around chimneys, pipe boots, roof valleys, and wall transitions — not at the shingles themselves.
Our team inspects the full roof system: shingles, underlayment, flashing, penetrations, and attic. We find the real entry point, not just the visible stain on your ceiling.

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 Ricardas LukosiunasTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is 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 Jeff NeldenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

From Hardie Board Siding , To Roofing and Flashing to Painting..THEY DO IT ALL Exceptionally Well! I Highly Recommend MI Siding And Mr Mel (Sorry, Out of Breath) just came from a Run..Posted on Google TRUE REVIEWSTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is 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 Ramon matamorosTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. MI Home Siding LLC did an excellent job on my home.

As a GAF Certified Residential Roofing Contractor, we offer eligible GAF warranty options on qualifying roof replacement projects.
Water does not travel in a straight line. It enters at one point and moves along rafters, decking, and insulation before becoming visible inside your home.
In East Tennessee, the most common entry points are chimney flashing, pipe boots, roof valley transitions, kick-out flashing failures, and areas where a previous contractor skipped underlayment or used improper nailing.
Finding the real source requires inspecting the full roof system — not just the stain on your ceiling.
Failed chimney flashing — water enters silently at the base. See chimney flashing repair.
Cracked pipe boots — one failed collar drips after every rain. See pipe boot replacement.
Missing kick-out flashing — water goes straight into the wall cavity. See roof flashing repair.
Storm-damaged shingles — exposed decking absorbs water fast. See storm damage repair.
Skylight seal failure — flashing fails before the rest of the roof. See skylight leak repair.
Failed or missing underlayment — without a synthetic secondary barrier, the decking has no backup protection once shingles fail. See bad roof installation repair for other installation-related causes.



We inspect the full roof — shingles, flashing, attic, and penetrations — before touching anything.
Once we find the real entry point, we explain exactly what caused it and what it takes to fix it correctly.
Standard inspection is free. Complex cases requiring drone work or attic moisture mapping are covered under our $350 Technical Assessment — credited back if you move forward.
Flashing at chimneys, walls, valleys, and vents. Pipe boots. Shingles matched to your existing roof. Damaged decking. Underlayment where it was skipped or failed. Kick-out and step flashing where missing.
We use materials from ABC Supply and Lansing. Every repair is built for East Tennessee weather.


If we find rotted decking or structural damage during the repair — we stop.
We photograph it, explain what we found, and issue a written Change Order before continuing. We never seal over hidden damage.
Most leaks can be repaired if caught early. Replacement makes more sense when the roof is over 20 years old, has multiple leak points, or has soft decking in several areas.
We give you an honest answer — not the one that produces a bigger job.
For a deeper comparison, see our roof repair vs. replacement guide.

We answer the phone. That separates us from most contractors in Knoxville.
