Afford-A-Pro handles roofing in Fayetteville, the Lincoln County seat on the Elk River, for houses around the historic courthouse square, homes along US-431 and farm and commercial buildings across the county. Free inspections and written estimates come with every job.
Fayetteville is the county seat of Lincoln County, a town of about 7,100 people built around a historic courthouse square with the Elk River winding past. US-431 runs through town and out into the farmland of the county.
Roofing jobs here come in a few kinds. Commercial buildings around a square like this often have flat or low-slope roofs hidden behind their front walls. Homes in town range from older frame houses to newer brick, and out in the county roofs cover farmhouses, barns and equipment sheds.
Afford-A-Pro General Construction and Roofing LLC is based in Jasper in Marion County and is licensed and insured to perform roofing work in Tennessee.

Standing seam gives a clean line with no exposed screws, which looks good on brick homes and restored older houses alike. Ribbed exposed-fastener panel is a strong, economical system that suits houses, farm buildings and workshops. The metal roofing page shows the panel profiles and colors.
Water can travel along a rafter before it drips, so the stain on the ceiling is a clue rather than an answer. On Fayetteville homes we check the usual entry points first: plumbing vent boots, flashing where a porch roof meets the house, chimney flashing and valleys that collect debris from yard trees. On metal roofs we look for screws that have loosened or lost their seal.
Once the source is found, we repair it properly. If the roof is worn out across the board, we will tell you and explain what a replacement would involve. See our roof repair page.
When a roof has more patches than original shingles, or the metal is rusting through at the laps, it is time to replace it. We remove everything down to the decking, replace soft or damaged boards, and install new underlayment, flashing and the metal or shingle roof you have chosen.
Most homes take one to three days. The permit goes through the city or the county, depending on where the house sits, and we handle the application and inspections. The crew cleans the site before leaving, and financing options are available. Our roof replacement page covers the full process.
Our inspections are free for Fayetteville homeowners and business owners. We look at the roof surface, flashing, vents, gutters and soffits, and the attic when we can get to it, then share the photos with you. It is worth doing before you buy a house near the square, after a strong storm, or any time you suspect a problem. See the roof inspection page.
Spring storms in southern Middle Tennessee can bring hail, straight-line wind and falling limbs. If one tears open your roof, we cover the damage with a tarp or temporary repair to stop the water, then photograph it and give you a written assessment for your insurance company. Our emergency roofing page has the details.
Shops and offices on the courthouse square, businesses along US-431 and metal buildings out in the county all need roofs that keep the weather out. We install metal panel and standing seam systems, TPO and other flat or low-slope roofs, and full re-roofs on existing buildings.
We also serve property owners east in Winchester and south across the state line in Huntsville. See our commercial roofing page.
We come out to your Fayetteville home, shop or farm building and inspect the roof free of charge, with photos.
A written estimate lays out your choices and what each one includes, so you can decide in your own time.
We go over metal profiles, shingle styles and colors, including options that suit an older house near the square.
Permits are filed with the city or the county, depending on where the house sits, and a start date is set.
The crew removes the old roof, replaces bad decking and installs the new one, keeping you informed each day.
We review the completed roof with you and leave the property clean before calling the job finished.
Ask to see proof of insurance and licensing, get the estimate in writing with materials and labor spelled out, and find out who pulls the permit and who cleans up. Afford-A-Pro is licensed and insured to perform roofing work in Tennessee, carries liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage, and handles the permit and the cleanup on every job.
No. Afford-A-Pro inspects roofs in Fayetteville and around Lincoln County for free. We check the surface, flashing, vents, gutters, soffits and the attic when it is accessible, and give you photos and a plain answer about the roof's condition.
Mild, dry weather in late spring and fall is the easiest for installing, since shingles seal well in warm sun and nobody is working around ice or peak summer heat. Metal can go on in cooler months as well. The more important timing is replacing a failing roof before it lets water into the decking, so do not wait for a particular season if the roof is already leaking.
Coverage comes down to the terms of your policy and what actually caused the damage. A hailstorm or a windstorm is a different matter from a roof that has simply aged out, and deductibles vary from one policy to the next. After a storm in Fayetteville, we can photograph the damage and prepare a written assessment for your insurer to review.
Yes. Commercial buildings on a historic square often have flat or low-slope roofs behind a front wall, and those can be re-roofed with TPO or another low-slope system, while pitched sections can take metal panels. We inspect the existing roof first, including drainage and the flashing where the roof meets the walls, and give you a written estimate before any work begins.
For many rural buildings it is. Ribbed metal panels go on quickly over large areas and stand up to wind, while standing seam suits a farmhouse where you want hidden fasteners. Both shed rain and leaves well and need little maintenance, which helps on buildings you do not check every week.
