Repair or Replace? We Help You Make the Right Call.
One of the most important questions a leaking roof raises is whether a targeted repair will do the job or whether a full replacement is the smarter long-term investment. Don Kennedy Roofing gives you an honest answer based on a thorough evaluation, not a one-size-fits-all recommendation.
Our team inspects the full condition of your roof, examining the extent of the leak damage, the age and remaining lifespan of your current system, the integrity of the decking and underlayment, and whether the affected area is isolated or indicative of broader deterioration. If a well-executed repair will restore your roof's performance and meaningfully extend its life, we'll say so. If the underlying condition of your roof means you'd be investing repair dollars into a system nearing the end of its useful life, we'll walk you through your replacement options honestly and transparently. Our goal is always to help you make the most informed decision for your home and budget.

“Financing was easy and I have piece of mind that the job was done correctly”Wendi L.
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."- Wendi L. -
“The crew came early on weekday morning, and installed the gutters and guards for us within a few hours.”Amber B.
They were very professional, and did a fantastic job
"- Amber B.We got our roof replaced several years ago but never had the gutters replaced so we decided to get new gutters and gutter guards through Don Kennedy. The crew came early on weekday morning, and installed the gutters and guards for us within a few hours. They were very professional, and did a fantastic job - there is reason that Don Kennedy is known for being the best in Middle Tennessee.
They installed Alu Rex (Double Pro) Gutter Guards for us, and we are so excited that we no longer have to clean our gutters every season anymore! Don Kennedy continues to be the most reputable roofing business around, and we are so thrilled with the results! Thanks DK!

“His arrival was exactly as scheduled and he ensured all of my questions and concerns were addressed before starting the inspection.”Jenny C.
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!"- Jenny C. -
“I have spoken positively about our experience to a couple other friends and neighbors needing a great roofing company.”James P.
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."- James P. -

Leak Repair Techniques We Use
Roof leaks stem from a wide variety of causes, and the right repair approach depends entirely on where the problem originates and what your roofing system is made of.
Don Kennedy Roofing uses a range of proven techniques to address leaks at their source, including:
- Flashing repair and replacement. Damaged or improperly sealed flashing around chimneys, skylights, vents, and roof edges is one of the most common entry points for water, and our team restores a watertight seal with precision.
- Shingle repair and replacement. Cracked, curling, or missing shingles leave your roof deck exposed, and we match and replace affected shingles to restore both protection and appearance.
- Underlayment repair. When moisture has penetrated beyond the surface layer, we assess and address damage to the underlayment to prevent continued water intrusion at the deck level.
- Sealant and caulking repair. Deteriorated sealants around penetrations, joints, and transitions are a frequent source of slow leaks, and our crew reseals these areas with high-quality materials rated for long-term performance.
- Flat roof membrane repair. For low-slope and commercial roofs, we locate and patch breaches in TPO, EPDM, modified bitumen, and built-up roofing membranes to restore full waterproofing integrity.
No matter the source or severity of your leak, our team has the tools and the experience to address it properly the first time.
Don't wait to get your roof leaks fixed. Call Don Kennedy Roofing at (615) 267-3129 to request same-day or emergency solutions from Nashville's leak repair experts!
