Schedule Your Free Roof Inspection
A Southern Green roof inspection with Southern Green Roofing starts at ground level and moves up onto the roof itself. Our crew checks the field of the shingles for hail bruising, cracking, and granule loss, inspects flashing at chimneys, vents, and valleys, and looks closely at problem areas like roof to wall transitions where leaks tend to start. We photograph everything so you can see what we see, whether it is storm damage that a carrier should review or age related wear on a roof approaching the end of its life. Small problems on a Southern Green roof get expensive fast when they are ignored, and an honest inspection is what keeps a minor repair from becoming a full tear off two years early.
I agree to be contacted by Southern Green Roofing regarding my inquiry.
The wind rating on a Southern Green shingle bundle is a promise with conditions. It assumes six nails placed in the zone the manufacturer drew, and a crew paid by speed finds every reason to use four. The roof looks identical either way until the first real gust, and by then the Johnson homeowner is filing a claim on an installation problem wearing a storm costume.
Repair before replacement is the Southern Green Roofing rule across Southern Green, every time repair is real. Ten shingles, a cracked boot, and a resealed valley cost a fraction of a tear off, and a roof with years left deserves to keep them. When replacement is the honest answer, Johnson homeowners hear why, with photos attached, and when it is not, they hear that too, even though it pays us less.
Buying a home in Johnson? Southern Green Roofing inspects the roof like the money is yours, because it is: decking probed, flashing checked, age estimated from evidence instead of the listing sheet. Call (812) 515-1567 before the inspection window closes. A Southern Green roof surprise costs five figures, and the look that prevents it costs a phone call.

Southern Green Roofing serves Southern Green and the surrounding Greenwood neighborhoods, including Rockland-Reds Corner, Frances-Stones Crossing, and Hill Valley. Founded in 2018 by Aaron Christy, who has been featured on FOX59, WISH TV, and RTV6, the company has spent years working on central Indiana roofs across Johnson County. Our crews are local, licensed, and insured under Indiana license RC21100059. We know the ranch style homes tucked among mature trees along the winding streets of Southern Green, and we know what those roofs deal with season after season.

Serving Southern Green and Johnson with quality materials, thorough inspections, and transparent pricing.
Storm and Hail Response
Central Indiana catches straight line winds, hail, and tornadic weather on a regular cycle, and those events leave fingerprints on shingles. We inspect for bruising, cracked mats, and lifted tabs, then document what we find with photographs. That way you have a clear record of the damage before the next round of weather makes it worse.
Southern Green Roof Experience
We have worked on the low pitch ranch roofs and the newer two story homes that make up Southern Green. That means we understand what mature tree canopy does to a roof over time, from moss buildup on shaded slopes to debris trapped in valleys. Local experience saves you from repairs that miss the real problem.
Inspection Through Completion
You get one roofing company from the first walk of the roof through the final cleanup. That includes the inspection, the written estimate, the tear off if needed, the new install, and the final walkthrough. No handoffs, no confusion about who owns what part of the job.
Insurance Documentation Done Right
When storm damage is real, the paperwork has to match. For Southern Green claims we photograph damage systematically, note the location and type of each hit, and provide documentation your carrier and adjuster can actually use. Clear records are what move a claim forward instead of stalling it.

What Happens on Every Southern Green Roof
The first step for any Southern Green roof project is an on site inspection. A member of our crew walks the roof, checks the shingles, flashing, valleys, and penetrations, and photographs anything that looks like storm damage or age related wear. You get a plain conversation about what the roof needs, whether that is a targeted repair, a few sections addressed, or a full replacement. Nothing gets scheduled and nothing gets quoted until we have actually looked at your roof and you understand the scope in front of you.
Next comes the written estimate. For Southern Green homeowners paying out of pocket, that means a clear price with the scope, materials, and workmanship laid out line by line. If there is a storm damage claim in play, we document the damage properly with photographs and notes, and we work alongside you and your insurance carrier and adjuster so the claim reflects what is actually on the roof. works with your insurance carrier, and we do not name policies we cannot see. Your claim, your carrier, our documentation.
Once the estimate is approved, we schedule the work at a time that fits your calendar. On install day the crew protects landscaping and siding, stages materials carefully, and works through the tear off and new install with attention to the details that matter, including proper underlayment, correct nailing, and clean flashing. When the roof is done, we walk it with you, run a magnet sweep of the yard and drive, and clean the site before we leave. Southern Green homeowners should not be finding stray nails a month later.

What we see most often on Southern Green roofs
Southern Green homeowners typically call us about these scenarios.
Previous Repairs Done With Roofing Cement
A black smear over a flashing joint is a repair that hides the problem rather than solving it. The cement cracks, traps water behind itself, and the damage underneath keeps going. Southern Green Roofing opens up sealed areas during inspection so you find out what was actually done to the roof before you bought the house.
Algae Streaking on the North Slope
Those black streaks running down shaded Southern Green slopes are airborne algae feeding on the limestone filler in the shingle mat. They are cosmetic at first and hold moisture against the surface over time. Southern Green Roofing tells you plainly whether the roof needs cleaning, algae resistant shingles at replacement, or nothing at all yet.
Hail Damage You Cannot See From the Ground
Hail bruises the shingle mat and knocks granules loose without leaving obvious holes, and that damage ages a roof years ahead of schedule. In Southern Green hail claims, documentation quality decides the outcome. Southern Green Roofing maps impacts slope by slope with photos and attends the adjuster meeting so covered damage gets counted, not argued away.
Gutters Pulling Away From the Fascia
When gutters sag in Southern Green, the usual cause is not the gutter. It is fascia board that has softened because water has been running behind it. Southern Green Roofing checks the fascia and the drip edge before quoting gutter work, because rehanging a gutter on rotten wood buys you one season.
Squirrels and Raccoons at the Roof Edge
Scratching overhead in a Southern Green attic usually starts with wood that was already soft. Squirrels and raccoons work a rotted rake board or the gap under a lifted shingle edge, and once the opening is chewed to size they come back to it every year. Southern Green Roofing replaces the board and rebuilds the edge detail, because stapling wire over soft wood buys you one season.
Wind Damage Along the Roof Edges
Rakes and eaves take the highest uplift in a Southern Green wind event, which is why damage starts at the perimeter and works inward. Starter course and drip edge decide whether the field holds. Southern Green Roofing inspects the edges first after a storm and documents lifted starter before it becomes missing field shingles.

Common Southern Green Roofing Questions
Straight answers to the questions Southern Green homeowners ask most.
Indiana Weather Affects Roofs Year Round
Indiana sees some of the most varied weather in the country. Southern Green homeowners deal with spring hail and severe thunderstorms, summer UV exposure, fall wind storms, and winter freeze thaw cycles. Understanding these patterns is how we plan maintenance, repairs, and replacement work.
Hail Bruising and Cracks
Southern Green sits in a stretch of central Indiana that catches hail on a regular basis. Even hail that looks small can bruise the mat under the shingle and crack the surface, shortening the roof's life and letting water in over time. When we are called out after a hail event, we look for the round bruises, missing granules, and soft spots that mark real damage and document each one for your records.
Wind Lifting Shingles
Straight line winds move through Johnson County several times a year, and they lift and tear shingles at the edges and ridges first. Once the seal strip breaks, water can drive underneath on the next rain even if the shingle looks fine from the ground. We inspect for lifted tabs, missing shingles, and exposed nails, then repair or replace what has failed.
Ice Dams in Winter
Central Indiana winters bring the freeze thaw cycles that create ice dams along the eaves. Melted snow refreezes at the roof edge, water backs up under the shingles, and interior leaks show up on ceilings weeks later. When Southern Green homeowners call about winter leaks, we check the roof edge, the underlayment, and the flashing so the repair addresses the cause, not just the stain.
Granule Loss on Older Roofs
A lot of Southern Green homes are on their second or third asphalt roof, and older shingles shed granules as they age. You see the granules in the gutters and downspouts, and the exposed mat starts to break down under UV. We look for bare spots, thinning ridges, and gutter buildup during inspection so you know honestly where the roof stands on its lifespan.
Choosing the Right Roof for Southern Green Homes
An honest breakdown of the three systems we install most frequently.
Architectural asphalt shingles are the most common choice on Southern Green roofs, and for good reason. They balance a reasonable price with real curb appeal, dependable performance through central Indiana wind and rain, and a wide range of colors that fit both older ranch homes and newer two story builds. Manufacturers back their architectural lines with strong shingle warranties, and the dimensional profile gives the roof depth and shadow line that a basic three tab cannot. For homeowners replacing an aging roof or a first generation shingle, architectural asphalt is often the straightforward answer that gives you decades of service without stretching the budget.
Class 4 impact resistant shingles are built to take hail that would bruise or crack a standard asphalt roof. That matters in Southern Green, where spring storm season regularly brings hail through the neighborhood. The reinforced mat holds up better to impact, granule loss tends to be slower over the life of the roof, and the visual profile is similar to a standard architectural shingle. Ask your insurance carrier whether your policy offers a premium credit for an impact resistant roof, since some do and some do not. We can quote a Class 4 option side by side with a standard architectural so you can compare cost against long term value.
Standing seam metal has the longest service life of the three options we install. The panels lock together with concealed fasteners, which removes the exposed screw failure point that plagues cheaper metal systems, and the smooth surface sheds snow and ice cleanly through central Indiana winters. Maintenance is minimal, color and finish stay put for decades, and a properly installed standing seam roof can last well beyond a typical asphalt lifespan. The tradeoff is honest, the upfront cost is higher than asphalt, sometimes significantly. What you are buying is decades of low maintenance and a roof that will likely outlast the next several shingle cycles.
