Lyles, Tennessee · Hickman County
Lyles grew up as Lyell Station on the old Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis line, and most of its homes went up between the sixties and the nineties. We replace and repair their roofs in architectural shingle or standing-seam metal.
TL;DR
Three Stone Roofing & Exteriors serves Lyles from its Franklin office, about 30 miles away. Census estimates count about 480 homes with a median build year of 1985: about two-thirds went up between 1960 and 1999 and close to a quarter since 2010, with almost nothing in between. Hickman County's zoning resolution calls for a permit from the Building Commissioner in Centerville to alter or repair a structure outside Centerville, so ask that office what a re-roof needs.
Most likely its second or third. About 39 percent of Lyles homes were built from 1980 to 1999 and 27 percent in the 1960s and '70s, so the typical house here is already on a replacement roof, and many are due for the next one. Lyles largely skipped the 2000s, with under 2 percent of homes from that decade, before building picked up again after 2010.
For the replacement, CertainTeed and GAF architectural shingles suit most of these houses. Standing-seam metal is the other strong fit on a country house: it goes on more slowly than shingles and is one of the systems on our residential roofing page. Either way, the inspection photographs every elevation first, and the line-item proposal is in your hands before anything is ordered.

The Hickman County Building Commissioner, whose office is in Centerville. Lyles is an unincorporated community, and the county's zoning resolution requires a permit from the Building Commissioner to construct, move, alter or repair a structure anywhere in the county outside Centerville. It doesn't mention re-roofing by name, so ask the Commissioner's office whether your job needs a permit before it starts.
Whatever the answer, one project manager handles your job from the inspection to the final walkthrough and registers the warranty, and the written proposal names every item before work starts.
The gutters and siding, usually at about the same pace as the roof. On houses from the sixties through the nineties, the original gutters may be pulling away from the fascia or leaking at the joints. We form seamless aluminum gutters on site in 5-inch or 6-inch K-style, and on a long or steep roof the 6-inch carries roughly 40 percent more water than the smaller size.
Where the siding is done, James Hardie fiber cement in lap, board-and-batten or shingle replaces it, with the 30-year product and 15-year ColorPlus finish warranties registered through us as a Select Contractor. Norandex vinyl is the other option. Roof, gutters and siding can go on one proposal, with one schedule.
Services in Lyles
With most houses in Lyles past their first roof, replacement is the main job, and roof repairs cover the newer post-2010 homes when something fails. Gutters come next, and James Hardie siding once the old cladding has faded, split or worn through.
From the gallery
We picked these three from our gallery for the houses in Lyles; none of them is in Lyles. A black standing-seam metal roof, CertainTeed Landmark in Heather Blend, and Spectra 6-inch K-style gutters on a tan brick home cover the work most houses here need.

“Best company ever! They worked with our insurance and handled everything! Absolutely the best crew of guys also! They worked all day, completed our beautiful new roof and cleaned up every last thing before they left. My yard and back porch look cleaner this afternoon than before they came. Highly recommend this company!”

Answers
Ask the Hickman County Building Commissioner in Centerville. The county's zoning resolution requires the Commissioner's permit to alter or repair a structure outside Centerville, but it doesn't name re-roofing, so that office is the one to confirm whether your job needs a permit. Your project manager can help with what it asks for.
Yes. Lyles sits along State Route 100 about 30 miles from our Franklin office, and homes along the highway and off roads such as Ed Lyell Road are within our Middle Tennessee area. Inspections are free, most are booked within one business day of your call, and the photo report comes whatever we find.
Longer than shingles. Most shingle re-roofs take one to two days once materials are staged, while standing-seam metal takes more time because each panel is fitted and fastened along its seams. Your written proposal sets out the scope before work starts, and one project manager is your contact from start to finish.
Often a roof that has already been replaced once and is wearing again: granule loss, curled edges, lifted tabs and worn flashing around chimneys and pipes. Some have extra layers underneath. The inspection photographs every elevation, and the report tells you whether a repair will do or whether replacement is the honest call.
