Complete Roofing Solutions for Lafayette
From quick fixes to major projects, Lafayette Roofing & Maintenance has been the roofing contractor Lafayette homeowners call for 17 years. Here's a rundown of what we offer.
Roof Replacement
After tear-off, we always check decking and replace what's needed. Soft spots mean moisture intrusion. The old roof was leaking longer than you realized. We use 7/16" or 15/32" CDX plywood depending on rafter spacing. New decking costs $75-$120 per sheet installed. We only replace what's actually damaged.

We repair asphalt shingle, metal, flat membrane, and tile roofs. Our trucks carry common repair materials so most fixes happen same-visit. Shingle repairs, flashing replacement, pipe boot swaps, ridge cap fixes, valley re-flashing. All routine for our Lafayette crews.

Wind speeds above 60 mph cause shingle tab lift and adhesive seal failure per ASTM D7158 testing protocols. Our Lafayette inspectors check the entire windward exposure. Not just the obvious damage. Poor ventilation causes ice dams which cause water intrusion under the shingle field during freeze-thaw cycles. We document all contributing factors so your insurance claim covers root-cause repairs, not just surface patches.

New construction underlayment per IRC R905 and ASTM D226 (felt) or ASTM D6757 (synthetic). Ice barrier per ASTM D1970 required at eaves in climate zones with average January temperature below 25°F. We install ice and water shield regardless. It's cheap insurance against ice dams and wind-driven rain. Drip edge per IRC R905.2.8.5 on eave and rake edges. Proper starter strip with factory sealant for wind resistance from day one.

Corrugated metal and R-panel (exposed fastener) at $5-$8/sq ft installed for agricultural buildings, shops, carports, and covered patios in Lafayette. 29-gauge is budget, 26-gauge is standard. For residential, we recommend 24-gauge standing seam at $12-$22/sq ft. The aesthetics and longevity justify the premium. DaVinci composite shake and slate profiles offer the look of natural materials with metal's performance. Perfect for Lafayette HOA neighborhoods that restrict metal roofing appearance.

The difference between a cheap shingle roof and a quality one comes down to the system underneath. Shingles are only the outer layer. Ice and water shield in the valleys, synthetic underlayment across the deck, proper starter strip with factory adhesive, correct nailing pattern. That's what makes a shingle roof last in Tennessee's weather.

The number one cause of flat roof failure is ponding water. Standing water that doesn't drain within 48 hours after rain. We solve ponding by installing tapered insulation systems that create positive slope to drains, scuppers, or roof edges. Minimum 1/4" per foot of slope eliminates standing water.

For commercial kitchens and restaurants in Lafayette, PVC membrane is the only option that resists animal fat and chemical exposure from rooftop grease exhaust. We install IB Roof Systems and Duro-Last PVC with heat-welded seams and custom accessories. Modified bitumen with SBS or APP polymer-modified asphalt for high-traffic commercial roofs. Two-ply systems with 20-year NDL (No Dollar Limit) warranties from Johns Manville or Firestone.

We hang gutters with hidden hangers screwed into the rafter tails or fascia board every 24 inches max. No spike-and-ferrule, no exposed hardware. Proper pitch is 1/4" per 10 feet toward each downspout. Too flat and water sits. Too steep and it looks wrong.

Annual inspections catch small problems early. A cracked pipe boot is a $150 repair. A year of water leaking through that crack causes $3,000+ in ceiling, insulation, and drywall damage. We recommend an inspection every 2-3 years for newer roofs, annually for roofs over 15 years.

We don't charge extra for emergency tarp jobs. The tarping cost is rolled into the permanent repair price. If you need us at midnight during a storm, the price is the same as a Tuesday afternoon.

Replacing an old leaking skylight is often cheaper than trying to repair it. New units from VELUX have Low-E laminated glass, argon fill, and No Leak guarantees when installed with the manufacturer's flashing system. Our Lafayette crews replace skylights in a single day.
