Roofing in Cordova

If you are looking for roofing in Cordova, TN, you are looking at one of the fastest-growing parts of Shelby County over the last forty years. Cordova started as a railroad farming village on Macon Road, known for the cut flowers it shipped into Memphis. It stayed small until the subdivisions arrived: two-story brick colonials and family homes spreading out from Germantown Parkway, Trinity Road, Walnut Grove Road and Houston Levee Road through the 1980s and 1990s, and the Wolfchase Galleria retail area opening next door late in that decade. As a roofer in Cordova TN, that history is what we work with every week.

It means a large share of Cordova’s houses were built inside a span of about fifteen years, and their roofs have aged on a similar clock. A house from 1992 that got its second roof around 2010 is coming due again, and the houses that are still on their original builder roof from the late 1990s are overdue. On a street where half the roofs went on in the same few years, the first hailstorm that finishes one usually finishes several. The same storms work through the neighbors too: Bartlett to the north, Germantown across the Wolf River, Collierville to the southeast and the rest of Memphis to the west. Not sure where yours stands? A roof inspection answers it.

Most of Cordova was annexed into the City of Memphis in stages after a long court fight, subdivisions such as Countrywood and Berryhill among them, and a few pieces, such as the Rocky Point area north of Walnut Grove Road, were returned to unincorporated Shelby County in 2021. Either way, roof replacement in the 38016 and 38018 ZIP codes is permitted and inspected through the Memphis and Shelby County Office of Construction Code Enforcement. We pull that permit as part of the job, so you do not have to work out which side of the line your street is on.

What we find on Cordova roofs

The job we do most in Cordova is a full tear-off on a two-story brick home from the late 1980s or 1990s. Tall walls and steep front gables make these roofs harder to work than a ranch, and they tend to hide the same problems: a second roof nailed over reused step flashing at the garage wall, soft decking at the eaves where gutters backed up for years, and an attic with a ridge vent but too little intake at the soffits. We fix all of it on the way back up, with synthetic underlayment, new flashing and balanced ventilation, and write it into the scope before the work starts. Roof replacement.

The second is spring storm damage. Cordova runs from the Wolf River on its south side to Shelby Farms Park on its western edge, and the hail and straight-line wind that come across the county in March and April reach every subdivision in it. Missing tabs on the windward slope and bruised shingle that looks fine from the yard are the usual finds, and the claim is where they get paid for. Storm damage repair and insurance claim assistance.

The third is water that came in at the gutters, not the shingles. Thirty years of tree growth in the older Cordova neighborhoods means the gutters fill with leaves and seed pods, overflow at the inside corners and soak the fascia and the top of the brick. We replace them with seamless gutters sized for the roof and restore any ceilings or walls the water reached. Gutter installation and repair and water damage restoration.
