Nashville Premium Roofing provides professional asphalt shingle roofing in Nashville, TN for residential and commercial properties across Middle Tennessee. Asphalt covers the overwhelming majority of roofs in Middle Tennessee, and it stays the right answer for most houses here. What changes under heavy canopy is which asphalt product, and how it is fastened. Those two decisions matter far more than the brand on the bundle.
Three-tab is a poor choice on a wooded lot and we rarely install it. A single-layer tab carries one thin mat, and a branch dragging across it in a gust takes granules down to bare asphalt in a single pass. Laminated architectural shingles run two bonded layers through the exposure, so abrasion has more material to chew through before the mat is exposed. That second layer is the whole argument here.
Where the canopy is genuinely heavy, we push SBS-modified shingles. The rubberised asphalt stays flexible in cold weather, which is exactly when a falling limb would crack a conventional shingle, and it resists mat fracture from point impact far better. Ask for it by name, because suppliers stock it beside standard laminates without advertising it. It costs more per square, and under hickory or black walnut it is the cheapest decision you will make.
Fastening gets tightened as well. We hand-nail rather than gun-nail on steep work, six nails per shingle instead of four, driven flush through the double-thickness common bond area. A nail driven too deep slices the mat; one left standing proud holds the course above it off the deck. Neither is visible once the roof is done, and both cause blow-off later.
The starter course carries the whole edge. We use a purpose-made starter strip with factory adhesive rather than reversed shingles, and we run it at the rakes as well as the eaves. On shaded slopes we add hand-sealing under the first two courses, because those tabs get too little sun to soften their own strip.
Colour is worth a thought too. Weathered wood and driftwood tones hide the granule streaking that canopy debris causes far better than a flat black does, and on a shaded lot the heat advantage of a lighter colour is largely irrelevant anyway. Ask to see a full bundle laid out in daylight before committing. It is a small decision, but it separates a roof that looks tired at eight years from one still looking right at fifteen.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — SBS-modified asphalt shingles with a reinforced fibreglass mat, open valley metal in 26-gauge painted steel with a hemmed edge and centre rib, hidden gutter hangers screwed on 24-inch centres into solid fascia backing, 6-inch K-style gutter with 3x4 downspout outlets, ice-and-water membrane carried past the interior wall line at eaves and valleys, synthetic underlayment rated for 180-day UV exposure — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Nashville and nearby communities including Franklin, Brentwood, Hendersonville, Murfreesboro.

Materials, equipment and how we do asphalt shingle roofing
The difference between asphalt shingle roofing that lasts and asphalt shingle roofing that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with SBS-modified asphalt shingles with a reinforced fibreglass mat, open valley metal in 26-gauge painted steel with a hemmed edge and centre rib, hidden gutter hangers screwed on 24-inch centres into solid fascia backing, 6-inch K-style gutter with 3x4 downspout outlets, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Nashville job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in Middle Tennessee means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Nashville Chooses Nashville Premium Roofing
- ✓We measure the canopy before we measure the roof, and every proposal states how much clear air each plane has and how much it needs
- ✓Open valley metal instead of a closed cut on any slope under mature hardwood, because a packed cut valley dams water sideways beneath the shingles
- ✓Gutters priced as roofing components: hidden hangers on 24-inch centres into solid backing, with 3x4 outlets sized for real hardwood leaf volume
- ✓Hand-sealed starter and first courses on shaded north slopes, where factory sealant strips get too little heat to bond on their own
The standards behind asphalt shingle roofing
Quality here is not a matter of opinion — it is written down. The asphalt shingle roofing work we do in Nashville follows published industry standards: NRCA publishes the Roofing Manual, the industry's reference for details and slope minimums, and Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association sets the shingle application and ventilation guidance the warranties reference. If a contractor cannot tell you which standard a detail comes from, that is worth asking about before you sign.
