Who may legally replace a roof in Gallatin

Sumner County is not one of the nine Home Improvement counties, so the state requires a licence only when the job reaches $25,000. A replacement quoted at $25,000 or more also needs a contractor licence whose monetary limit covers the contract. Of the 32 licensed roofers near Gallatin, 27 hold a contractor licence and 27 of those carry a limit of $100,000 or more; the other 5 hold the Home Improvement licence, which stops at $24,999. The limit is printed on every listing.

What a replacement costs

Published figures for the same Tennessee city differ by more than double, because they assume different roof sizes. One national estimator prices a Nashville shingle roof at $6,509 to $8,290 for 1,282 square feet; a Nashville roofing company says most homes there run $20,000 to $30,000. Both work out to roughly $5 to $7 a square foot for architectural shingles.
