Oak Hill, Tennessee · Davidson County
Oak Hill is a small city of its own inside Davidson County, built mostly in the 1950s and 1960s on wooded hillsides with long drives. The next roof on a house here should be chosen with the trees and the slope in mind.
TL;DR
Three Stone Roofing & Exteriors re-roofs and repairs homes in Oak Hill, about nine miles from its Franklin office. Because Oak Hill is a separate municipality within Davidson County, its permits are handled by the City of Oak Hill Codes Department instead of Metro Nashville. The median home was built in 1958 and nearly six in ten predate 1960, on wooded hillsides with long drives. That means older houses under heavy canopy, gutters that clog, and trim and siding that show their years.
Most of Oak Hill was built before 1960. Census estimates put the city's median build year at 1958, with about 58% of its roughly 1,900 homes predating 1960 and another 17% from the 1960s and 1970s, and 95% are lived in by their owners. On a house that age, the roof coming off is rarely the first one, and what is underneath matters as much as what goes on top.
Choosing the new roof is the other half. Wooded lots and established houses suit a designer shingle such as GAF Camelot II or one of CertainTeed's designer lines, and BRAVA composite slate gives a slate profile to a house that never had real slate. Our residential roofing page covers each system, standing-seam metal included.

They keep gutters working hard. Oak Hill's houses sit on wooded hillsides, so leaf fall fills troughs quickly while the slope sends runoff downhill toward foundations and drives. With clay over limestone underneath, little of that water soaks in near the house.
Guards cut the cleaning under heavy canopy, and 6-inch seamless aluminum carries roughly 40% more water than 5-inch on long runs. On an older house where appearance counts, copper half-round and full-round gutters with copper guards, like the set in our gallery, suit the age of the building.
A single project manager sees it through, from the day of the inspection until the warranty is registered. The job runs out of our Franklin office about nine miles away, and most inspections are booked within one business day; every elevation is photographed, and the report is yours even if nothing needs doing.
On a long, sloped drive, staging matters: materials are delivered and the drive and landscaping protected before day one. The proposal is written line by line, so opening up an older roof does not produce surprise change orders. A free inspection is the first step.
Services in Oak Hill
Replacement on houses from the 1950s and 1960s comes first, with designer shingles and BRAVA composite for owners who want a roof that fits the house. Copper or 6-inch aluminum gutters handle the canopy. Exterior painting follows our six-step process, with repair before primer, and roof repairs cover leaks, flashing and storm damage on roofs with life left.
From the gallery
These three projects come from our gallery and aren't in Oak Hill. We chose them for its older houses: GAF Camelot II in Antique Slate, BRAVA Old World Slate in Atlantic, and copper half-round and full-round gutters with copper guards.

Answers
No. Oak Hill is a separate city inside Davidson County, and its building permits come from the City of Oak Hill Codes Department. Check with that office about your address and the scope of your project before a start date is set, since requirements depend on the work involved.
A designer shingle or composite slate usually suits it best. GAF Camelot II and CertainTeed's designer lines have more depth than plain architectural shingles, and BRAVA composite slate gives a true slate profile. Three Stone is the only BRAVA Certified Craftsman contractor in Tennessee and Alabama.
Six-inch seamless aluminum with guards handles the most leaves and water, about 40% more volume than 5-inch. Copper half-round and full-round with copper guards are the choice when the look of an older house matters. We also clean and repair existing gutters that are sound.
Most inspections are scheduled within one business day from our Franklin office, about nine miles away. An active leak or fresh storm damage is triaged first, usually the same day, and we carry tarp material to keep the house dry after that first visit. Every inspection ends with a photo report.
