6 roofing contractors with a current Tennessee licence are based within 12 miles of Columbia, in a place where the Weather Service has logged hail up to 3 inches since 2016.
Listed by where the business is, not by who it says it serves. Every one held an active Tennessee contractor licence with a roofing classification on 2026-09-17, and the address it is placed by is the one the state holds. A licence is valid statewide, so roofers further out can work here too.
