MI Homesiding & Roofing
Roof replacement, repair, and drainage correction for Maynardville homes — in the valley below the Union County ridges.
Maynardville sits in the valley below the ridges of Union County, near Norris Lake.
Rain that falls on the high ground does not stay there. It comes down the slope and arrives at the houses in the valley as sheet flow across the yard, with volume behind it. The gutter system is the only thing standing between that water and the wall — and a downspout that discharges two feet from the block is not draining the roof, it is concentrating it.
That is why on Maynardville homes the roof and the drainage are the same conversation. The rot shows up at the rim joist and the bottom of the siding, on the uphill side of the house, and it looks like a wall problem long before anyone connects it to the roof.
This page is part of our Maynardville exterior services; for the wall side of the house see our Maynardville siding page.

Mel was so easy to work with. We had him out because we needed to figure out how to fix a roof leak where the flashing wasn't done right (and part of the siding was also not right). He did a thorough inspection and explained to me what issues he saw. His quote was similar to the other we got. We ended up having him put on a new roof, with a new under shingle ventilation system and a roof vent. He also corrected siding issues (and flashing), fixed some rotten trim, and repainted part of the siding and trim. Everything looks great! His crews were very nice. Of all the contractors we've worked with on various renovations, Mel was easily one of the best at quickly responding when we had a question or saw an issue we wanted handled differently. We'll definitely hire him again if we need roof or siding work!Posted on Google![]()

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![]()

Maynardville and the rural communities around it are areas rather than subdivisions, so we work by community and road.
The center of town and the streets around it.
Mixed housing ages on smaller lots, with the valley drainage pattern affecting most of them. Where the water leaves the roof matters as much here as what the roof is made of.
A rural community outside town.
Larger properties, varied orientation, and drainage that depends on where the house sits relative to the ridge. Two houses a quarter mile apart can have completely different problems.
Rural properties with mature tree cover in places.
Debris load in the valleys and gutters is a recurring factor here, and a gutter carrying leaves is a gutter that overflows in the storm that matters.
Toward the lake.
Added moisture and drainage that has to be planned rather than assumed, particularly on sloped lots. Our guide on how long a roof lasts in Tennessee covers what shortens that number.
A rural community with properties spread across varied terrain.
Each one is inspected on its own terms rather than by area, because the slope above the house decides more than the age of the roof does.
Rural properties where the slope above the house determines what the drainage has to handle.
Where the downspouts discharge matters more here than the gutter size does. A larger gutter that ends in the same place has not solved anything.
Rural communities around Maynardville with a mix of housing ages.
Older properties tend to have drainage that was adequate for a smaller roof than the one that is on the house now, usually after an addition nobody re-sized the gutters for.
Most roofing companies will not put a price on a page. We will. These are the ranges we quote in Maynardville, 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) 243-1243Water that falls on the ridge above your house is your problem before it is anyone else’s.
It comes down the slope and arrives across the yard as sheet flow, and it reaches the foundation with volume behind it. On that terrain the roof is only part of the system. What the gutters and downspouts do with the water they collect is the other part, and it is the part most often left alone.
Downspouts that discharge two feet from the block are not draining the roof — they are concentrating it, delivering it more efficiently to exactly the place you do not want it. The rot shows up at the rim joist and the bottom course of siding, on the uphill side of the house, and by then it is a structural repair rather than a drainage correction.
On Maynardville homes we look at where the downspouts end before we look at the gutters themselves.
The cheap gutter job in Maynardville is easy to spot: new gutters, same downspouts, same discharge point two feet from the block.
Hanging new gutter on a house at the bottom of a slope without changing where the water goes does not solve anything. The system now collects the roof more efficiently and delivers it to the same place, which is the foundation. Volume was never the problem — the exit point was.
What follows is a homeowner who paid for gutters and still has a wet crawl space, and a rim joist that keeps going soft on the uphill side of the house.
We price the discharge run with the gutter, because on this terrain the two are the same job.
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.
Hidden damage is documented and priced in a written Change Order before new work goes over it.
We walk the roof and check the attic. What that inspection covers, and when a standard visit is enough, is set out on our roof inspection services page. Deck condition, ventilation, flashing at every transition, and any evidence of previous repair work. On valley lots we also check the gutter system and where the downspouts discharge relative to the slope above the house.
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. Where an existing roof has failed at one of those transitions, that is roof flashing repair.
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 works exteriors across East Tennessee, backed by more than 20 years of hands-on construction and exterior remodeling experience, and roofing sits alongside the siding, flashing and gutter work that connects to it. In a valley that matters more than usual, because most of what gets reported here as a roof problem is a drainage problem wearing a different hat.
As a GAF Certified Residential Roofing Contractor, we can offer GAF’s System Plus Limited Warranty on qualifying roofing systems, subject to GAF eligibility, terms, and conditions.

We also cover the rest of the exterior in Maynardville: roofing, windows, decks and exterior painting.
We serve Maynardville and the surrounding communities across Union County and north Knox County, working within surrounding East Tennessee of Knoxville.
Valley ground where water management matters more than it looks like it should.
What the written estimate itemizes. Tear-off and disposal, the shingle or panel line by name, underlayment and where the ice-and-water barrier goes, starter strip and ridge cap as separate items, flashing by type, ventilation, a decking repair allowance, and the permit. When two quotes are far apart, the gap is nearly always in flashing, ventilation or decking.
How long it takes. Most of our roofing projects run approximately one to two working days. That is the typical range rather than a promise about your roof: size and pitch, access, how many tear-off layers come off, the material, the condition of the decking once it is open, ventilation work, the weather window and anything hidden we find can all move it.
Two warranties, not one. The manufacturer covers the product; we cover the installation. As a GAF Certified Residential Roofing Contractor we can offer GAF’s System Plus Limited Warranty on qualifying systems, subject to GAF eligibility, terms and conditions. Our own workmanship warranty runs one year on a repair and five years on a replacement.
Permits. Maynardville sits in Union County, so a roofing permit is issued by the codes authority covering that address rather than by the City of Knoxville. For reference, inside the Knoxville city limits the city exempts roofing only where the first layer of shingles is kept intact and a second is laid over it — a tear-off does not qualify — and Knox County Codes Administration covers unincorporated Knox County. Both have adopted the 2018 International Residential Code. We confirm what your address requires before the proposal goes out.
Paying for it. Financing options may be available through a third-party financing partner, subject to approval and the provider’s terms. We are not the lender, and the terms come from the provider.

Most full replacements land between $9,500 and $27,000, depending on roof size, pitch and whether decking needs replacing. On valley lots we price the discharge run with the gutter. The full table is above.
Because on a valley lot they are the same system. A downspout that ends two feet from the block delivers the whole roof to the foundation, and that shows up as rot at the rim joist and the bottom course of siding.
Usually it is where the water goes after it leaves the roof, plus whatever comes down the slope as sheet flow. We look at the discharge points and the grade before recommending anything on the roof itself.
Yes. We document the damage with photos, provide the written scope, and work with the adjuster through the claim.
We stop, photograph it, and issue a written Change Order priced by the sheet before continuing. Damaged decking is documented and priced in a written Change Order before new shingles go over it.
No. We ask 33% at signing, which covers materials, and the rest is tied to progress on the job.
Whether the house is in town or out toward the lake, on this terrain the roof and where the water ends up are one job.
