About Don Kennedy Roofing

A Team You Know, Experience You Can Trust

Our story started in 1978 with a 19-year-old named Don Kennedy, a passion for construction and architecture, and a commitment to serving his community the right way. Don launched Don Kennedy Roofing out of his home, and in the early days, Nashvillians came to know him simply by his truck. No advertising campaigns or grand marketing efforts, just honest work, genuine relationships, and a quality of craftsmanship that spread entirely through word of mouth. More than four decades later, you can still find Don on job sites and catching up with long-standing customers, because some things never change.

Don and his wife Debbie have built something that stands the test of time, and their two adult sons now run substantial parts of the business alongside them. The Kennedys' dedication to growth, quality, and community has kept Don Kennedy Roofing at the forefront of the roofing industry, constantly evolving to meet the demands of a growing city while never losing sight of the values that built this business in the first place.

    We had a top notch crew who swarmed our roof
    “I have spoken positively about our experience to a couple other friends and neighbors needing a great roofing company.”

    We had a top notch crew who swarmed our roof
    "We had some hail damage from a storm in May 2025 and received some money from our insurance company. We worked with Shane Taylor for a more comprehensive roof and gutter/guard replacement rather than just what the insurance check would provide. We had at least 15 contractors knock on our door with an important distinction in that Don Kennedy was not a storm chaser. I contacted them. We had a top notch crew who swarmed our roof and our project manager Joe was a great communicator and took ownership with a couple bumps we experienced. To be expected in a major project like this and they rose to the occasion. Excellent work and result. I have spoken positively about our experience to a couple other friends and neighbors needing a great roofing company. Thanks."

    The crew was amazing!

    The crew was amazing!
    "Noticed a leak just before Thanksgiving. Called Don Kennedy for a quote to get the leak fixed. A technician (Nathanael) was out the next day and we discovered the company that roofed my house 15 years ago did a terrible job (no flashing around some vents, no underlay in parts). Bottom line: fix just this problem and gamble that the rest of the roof was okay, or replace the entire roof correctly with Don Kennedy. I went with Don Kennedy. The crew was amazing! They let me know what they were doing, they cleaned all the nails up (went over the yard and drive way more than twice with magnets), and the roof looks great. The foreman (Wesley) was out multiple times to discuss the work with me and to check the progress. Also had new gutters put on by DK as those were not installed correctly either. Same thing -- crew was great and the foreman was out to check progress multiple times. Financing was easy and I have piece of mind that the job was done correctly and if anything goes wrong, I can call Don Kennedy and they will fix it for me. Could not be happier with this decision."

    They took the time to explain what they were going to do
    “He did an excellent job showing and explaining the problems that caused the leak after a thorough inspection.”

    My experience with Don Kennedy Roofing began when Ethan Burke did an inspection of our roof after we had a water leak in our ceiling after a hard rain. He did an excellent job showing and explaining the problems that caused the leak after a thorough inspection. He took all the time I needed to understand what the problem was and what would be needed to fix that problem. He then pointed out some other issues that could be a future problem. He also made sure we had a good idea of what needed to be done now and what could be done in a second step later.

    After we agreed, the technicians who came out to fix the problem were polite and considerate. They took the time to explain what they were going to do and got their work done in a timely manner. When the repair was done they let me know and they had cleaned up all debris in the areas where they worked. I would highly recommend Don Kennedy Roofing for roof repairs or a new roof if needed.

    I am truly amazed by the service received from your Roof Inspector
    “His arrival was exactly as scheduled and he ensured all of my questions and concerns were addressed before starting the inspection.”

    I am truly amazed by the service received from your Roof Inspector
    "I am truly amazed by the service received from your Roof Inspector Drew Gilbert. His arrival was exactly as scheduled and he ensured all of my questions and concerns were addressed before starting the inspection. Having dealt with several roofers over the past few months and bad experiences, he was a "breath of fresh air". His attention to and explanation of the details throughout the entire process was comforting. He was truly looking out for MY best interest which is very uncommon in todays world. Thank you for being you Drew! Don Kennedy Roofing is my choice without any reservation or question!"

    "We are new to the Nashville area and needed some minor repairs done to the roof of our new property. Nolan Evans, with Don Kennedy Roofing quickly responded to address our concerns. Nolan gave us an approximate timeline for the repair. He finished ahead of schedule and promptly followed up with the details of the repair. We wish we could give Nolan SIX stars but they only allow FIVE! Thank you Nolan, you are the best!"
