La Vergne, Tennessee · Rutherford County
La Vergne's houses come mostly from two building waves, the 1980s and '90s and the boom after 2000. We repair and replace their roofs, and fit gutters that move water off flat lots.
TL;DR
Three Stone Roofing & Exteriors covers La Vergne from its Franklin office, about 15 miles away. Around two thirds of the city's 14,000 homes were built between 1980 and 2009, so many are on a second roof and many more still wear their first shingles at 17 years old or older. The ground near the Stones River is flat and houses there sit largely on slabs over clay, which makes gutters and downspouts part of every roof conversation. Permits go through the City of La Vergne Codes Department.
That depends mostly on the decade the house was built. Census estimates split La Vergne's roughly 14,000 homes into two large groups: about 30 percent from 1980 to 1999 and about 38 percent from 2000 to 2009, with a median build year of 2001. Another 16 percent are newer than 2010, and only about one home in six predates 1980.
A house from the late-century group has very likely been re-roofed once already, and the question there is whether the replacement was done well: proper flashing, adequate ventilation, one layer or two. A 2000s house is often still on its original shingles, which are now old enough to show bare granule patches and brittle tabs. The two need different inspections, and our photo report covers each elevation either way.

Nowhere quickly, unless the gutters carry it away from the house. Much of La Vergne sits on level ground near the Stones River, and much of it is built on concrete slabs over clay, which drains slowly. A downspout that empties against the slab puts water exactly where the house least needs it.
Getting it away starts at the eave. We form seamless aluminum gutters on site to the length of each run, in 5-inch or 6-inch K-style, and the 6-inch profile carries roughly 40 percent more water for large roofs and long runs. Guards, repairs to an existing system and cleaning are part of the same service.
Repair, if the decking is sound and the damage is local. Leaks around a chimney, failed pipe boots, a few missing shingles after wind and worn flashing are all jobs our roof repair crews handle without selling a full roof the house does not need. When shingles are failing across whole slopes, or a second layer is already on, replacement is the honest recommendation, and the proposal explains why with photos.
When the damage came from a storm, your insurer receives the claim from you, not from us. Our advisors are Haag-certified and insurance-trained; they put together the photo report and scope for your claim and meet the adjuster on the roof.
Quickly, on most La Vergne houses. A typical tear-off and new roof takes one to two days, with materials staged and the driveway and beds protected before the crew begins. One project manager handles the job from inspection to final walkthrough and warranty registration, and the written proposal lists every line item so there are no surprise change orders.
Permits for La Vergne addresses go through the City of La Vergne Codes Department. Most of our inspections are scheduled within one business day of your call to the Franklin office.
Services in La Vergne
On a city built mostly between 1980 and 2009, roof replacement with CertainTeed or GAF architectural shingles is the most common big job, and gutters come close behind on the flat lots. Garages in slab-built homes are good candidates for Penntek polyurea flake garage floor coatings, which Penntek rates four times stronger than epoxy.

These three tiles come from our gallery and are not La Vergne jobs: CertainTeed Landmark in Burnt Sienna, 6-inch K-style gutters on a red brick home, and a light gray Penntek flake garage floor. Each fits the houses here.

Answers
The City of La Vergne Codes Department issues building permits for addresses inside the city. What a given roof, siding or gutter job requires depends on its scope, so confirm with the department for your property before the work goes on the calendar.
Quite possibly. 2001 is the city's median build year, and many houses from that period still have the shingles they were built with, which are now about 25 years old. A free inspection tells you whether yours is original, how much life it has left and whether repair or replacement makes sense.
Yes. We form 5-inch and 6-inch K-style seamless aluminum gutters on site, plus half-round, full-round and copper. The 6-inch size moves roughly 40 percent more water and suits large roofs and long runs, which helps on the flat, slow-draining slab lots common in La Vergne.
Our Franklin office at 6100 Tower Circle is about 15 miles from La Vergne, and you can reach it at (615) 434-3333. Most inspections go on the schedule within one business day. Active leaks and fresh storm damage are triaged first, usually the same day, and we bring tarp material to make the house watertight.
