Roofs and Gutters for Burns, Tennessee

Burns is a small town at Montgomery Bell State Park, on the edge of the city of Dickson, and about half its houses were built before 1980. We replace and repair their roofs, gutters and siding from our Franklin office, about 29 miles away.

TL;DR

Three Stone Roofing & Exteriors serves Burns, a town in southeastern Dickson County bordering the city of Dickson, from its Franklin office about 29 miles away. Census estimates count about 780 homes, about half built before 1980 and nearly a fifth before 1960, and about 78 percent are lived in by their owners. Before a roofing or siding job here, a call to the Town of Burns or to Dickson County will tell you which permits, if any, apply.

What shape are Burns roofs in?

Older than the town's size suggests, with a younger streak. Census estimates put about 19 percent of Burns homes before 1960 and 31 percent in the 1960s and '70s, while nearly 20 percent were built since 2010 and only about 5 percent in the 2000s. So one road can hold a house that has been re-roofed several times next to one still on its first roof.

That spread is why the inspection comes before any recommendation. The older roofs get checked for extra layers, tired decking and reused flashing; the newer ones usually need no more than a roof repair where something has lifted or leaked. Every elevation is photographed and the report sent, whatever we find.

What siding and gutters suit an older Burns house?

Fiber cement siding and gutters sized to the roof, since on a home from the fifties to the seventies both have usually aged alongside the shingles. James Hardie fiber cement siding replaces cladding that has split, warped or faded, in lap, board-and-batten or shingle profiles, and as a Select Contractor we register its 30-year product and 15-year ColorPlus finish warranties. Norandex vinyl is the other choice.

Gutters are formed on site from seamless aluminum, cut to each run in 5-inch or 6-inch K-style, half-round or full-round, and guards can go on to keep out leaves. Folding all of it into one line-item proposal means one project manager and one schedule for the whole exterior.

How does a Burns roof job get started?

With a call to our Franklin office at (615) 434-3333 and a free inspection, most of them booked within one business day. Active leaks and fresh storm damage are handled first, usually the same day, and crews carry tarp material to keep the house dry until the work is done.

Before any work begins, check with the Town of Burns, or with Dickson County if the town sends you there, on which permits the job calls for. From there you get a written proposal with no surprise change orders, materials staged and the drive protected before day one, and on most homes a tear-off and new roof in one to two days. Financing is available on qualifying projects.

These three come from our gallery, not from Burns. They fit its older houses: a BRAVA Cedar Shake roof in Aspen, CertainTeed Landmark PRO Max Def in Charcoal Black, and Spectra 6-inch K-style gutters on a red brick home.

Answers

Burns questions

Does Three Stone work in Burns, next to Dickson?

Yes. Burns is about 29 miles from our Franklin office, which covers our Middle Tennessee work. Inspections are free, most are on the calendar within one business day, and the photo report comes to you even when nothing is wrong. Call (615) 434-3333 to book one.

Can you replace the roof on a pre-1960 house in Burns?

Yes. A house that old has usually been re-roofed more than once, so the inspection checks for old layers, soft decking and worn flashing, and the line-item proposal covers whatever it finds. A designer shingle or BRAVA composite shake can suit an older roofline, and CertainTeed and GAF architectural shingles fit most others.

Are newer Burns homes likely to need roof work?

Mostly inspections and small repairs. Nearly 20 percent of Burns homes were built since 2010, and those roofs are usually sound apart from the odd lifted shingle, cracked pipe boot or storm damage. We will say when a repair is all you need, and the free inspection and photo report show you why.

Do you install gutter guards on Burns homes?

Yes. Guards go on our seamless aluminum gutters, which are formed on site in 5-inch or 6-inch K-style, half-round or full-round. They cut down on cleaning where leaves and twigs fill the troughs, and they can be added with a new gutter job or fitted to gutters that are still in good shape.
