Schedule Your Free Roof Inspection
A roof inspection in Fountaintown starts with a full walkthrough of the roof itself, not just a look from the driveway. We check the condition of the shingles for cracking, curling, bruising from hail, and granule loss, then move to the flashing around chimneys, vents, and valleys where leaks most often start. We look at the underside where accessible, note any soft spots or staining, and photograph everything so you have a clear record. Because many Fountaintown homes carry mature tree cover, we also flag debris buildup, moss, and areas where limbs are wearing on shingles. Catching a lifted shingle or a failed pipe boot early keeps a small problem from turning into interior damage that costs many times more to fix.

Gutters keep the honest record of a Fountaintown roof's age. The granules that wash down with every rain are the shingle's wear surface leaving a little at a time, and a heavy season of grit in the downspout splash means the mat beneath is starting to show. Shelby homeowners read their roofs from the ground all the time. They are just usually reading the wrong end of the system.
Decking gets probed and photographed before Fountaintown Roofing prices a Fountaintown roof, and replaced where it is soft, with pictures before the new plywood covers the evidence. Rot hides under presentable shingles all the time, so our estimates state the decking allowance up front and surprises arrive with a price cap already attached. Shelby homeowners approve changes from photographs, never from descriptions.
Skylight staining the ceiling below it? Fountaintown Roofing reflashes Fountaintown skylights to their manufacturer detail or replaces aged units with your sign off, because the kit that came with the roof two roofs ago was never going to outlast this one. Call (812) 515-1567. Across Shelby, the mystery stain under a skylight is rarely a mystery to anyone who has opened one up.

Ventilation is the part of the roof nobody sees and everything depends on. Fountaintown Roofing calculates intake and exhaust on every Fountaintown scope, because a starved attic cooks shingles from below and voids warranties from the fine print.
Fountaintown Roofing was founded in 2018 by Aaron Christy, who has been featured on FOX59, WISH TV, and RTV6 for his work in central Indiana roofing. We serve Fountaintown, the broader Shelby County area, and neighboring communities like Shelbyville, Morristown, Greenfield, and New Palestine. Our crews are local, licensed, and insured under Indiana license RC21100059, and we have spent years working on the kinds of homes you see along the county roads around Fountaintown. Whether your property sits near the Fountaintown Christian Church or out on a farmstead off SR-9, we know these roofs and how they age.
The way we work in Fountaintown is straightforward. Every job starts with a hands on inspection where we get on the roof, check the shingles, flashing, valleys, and penetrations, and document what we find with photos you can actually see. From there we write an honest estimate with a clear scope, no vague line items, and no pressure to sign on the spot. When the work begins, the crew protects your landscaping, keeps the site tidy, and cleans up nails and debris before leaving. We would rather do fewer roofs well than rush through them.

Storm And Hail Response
Central Indiana storm systems regularly bring 60 mph gusts and hail into Shelby County, and we schedule storm calls with priority. The crew documents wind lifted shingles, hail bruising, and torn flashing with dated photos. You get a clear picture of the damage and a written path forward, whether that is a targeted repair or a full replacement.
We Know Fountaintown Homes
The housing stock in Fountaintown runs from late 1800s vernacular two stories to mid century ranches on gable roofs, and each era has its own quirks. We have worked on aging three tab roofs, older fiberglass shingle systems, and modern architectural tear offs. That experience means fewer surprises once the old roof comes off.
Inspection Through Completion
We handle the full arc of the job in house, from the first walkthrough to the final nail sweep. That includes inspection, written estimate, material selection, tear off, installation, and cleanup. You are not handed off between companies or left chasing someone else for a punch list item.
Insurance Documentation Done Right
When a Fountaintown roof takes storm or hail damage, the claim lives or dies on documentation. We photograph the damage thoroughly, write clear scopes, and are on site during the adjuster meeting when you want us there. That helps your claim reflect what your roof actually needs.

From First Call to Final Nail in Fountaintown
The first step for any Fountaintown project is the on site inspection. We come out at a time that works for you, walk the roof, and check shingles, flashing, valleys, penetrations, and the areas where storm or age damage tends to hide. Every finding gets photographed so you can see what we see, not just take our word for it. Before any work is discussed, you get a clear picture of the roof's condition and whether repair or replacement makes more sense for your specific home in Fountaintown.
Next comes the written estimate. Fountaintown homeowners get an itemized scope in plain language, with the materials, labor, and any add ons like decking replacement spelled out honestly. If your roof was damaged in a storm and you plan to file a claim, we document everything and can meet your insurance carrier's adjuster on site so nothing gets missed in the assessment. works with your insurance carrier and we never name drop insurers, but we make sure the paperwork on our end supports what your roof actually needs.
Once the scope and schedule are set, the crew arrives and gets to work. We tarp landscaping, set up ground protection, and stage materials to keep the property in Fountaintown safe throughout the tear off and install. The roof goes on with the flashing, underlayment, and ventilation details handled correctly, not rushed. Before we leave, we do a final walkthrough with you, run a magnet across the yard and driveway for stray nails, and haul off the old material. You get a finished roof and a clean site.

What we see most often on Fountaintown roofs
Fountaintown homeowners typically call us about these scenarios.
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 Fountaintown hail claims, documentation quality decides the outcome. Fountaintown 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 Fountaintown, the usual cause is not the gutter. It is fascia board that has softened because water has been running behind it. Fountaintown Roofing checks the fascia and the drip edge before quoting gutter work, because rehanging a gutter on rotten wood buys you one season.
Bathroom Vents Ducted Into the Attic
A bath fan that exhausts into attic space instead of through the roof puts warm wet air against the underside of the deck every day. Homeowners find it when the plywood darkens or the insulation mats down. Fountaintown Roofing looks for it during the roof inspection and flags it, because it is a roof problem even though it starts in a bathroom.
Holes Left by Dish and Panel Mounts
Anything bolted to a roof puts a hole through it, and that hole is only as good as what went in around it. Dish and panel installers often shoot a lag straight through the shingle and cover it with a dab of sealant, which holds until the sealant cracks. Fountaintown Roofing finds abandoned mounts on Fountaintown inspections, flashes or patches the opening properly, and checks the decking below it.
Nail Pops Showing Through the Shingles
Decking expands and contracts through Fountaintown temperature swings until fasteners back out and tent the shingle above them. Each pop is a pinhole today and a stained ceiling in two years. Fountaintown Roofing resets the fasteners, reseals or replaces by condition, and photographs the pattern so next year has a baseline to compare against.
Step Flashing at Dormers and Sidewalls
Where a slope runs into a sidewall, the flashing has to be individual L-shaped pieces woven in with the shingle courses, not one long strip tucked behind the siding. The long strip looks right from the driveway and rots the wall from behind. Fountaintown Roofing rebuilds the detail piece by piece and adds a kick-out at the bottom so runoff lands in the gutter.

What Homeowners Ask About Hail Claims
Straight answers to the questions Fountaintown homeowners ask most.
Indiana Weather Affects Roofs Year Round
Indiana sees some of the most varied weather in the country. Fountaintown 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 On Shingles
Shelby County sits in a corridor that regularly sees hail producing thunderstorms, and hail bruises the mat of an asphalt shingle even when it does not visibly crack. Those bruises fail early, shedding granules and leaking within a season or two. When we are called out to a Fountaintown home after a hail event, we mark hits by slope and photograph each one for your records.
Wind Lifting Shingles
The 60 mph gusts common in central Indiana storm warnings lift shingle tabs, break the sealant strip, and tear tabs off entirely along ridges and eaves. Once the seal is broken, that shingle is compromised even if it looks fine from the ground. Our crews check every slope of a Fountaintown roof after a wind event and reseal or replace what has failed.
Ice Dams At The Eaves
Indiana winters bring freeze thaw cycles that let ice dam up at the eaves, backing snowmelt under the shingles and into the decking. On the low to medium pitch gable roofs common in this area, that water finds nail holes and seams fast. We check for stained decking, failed underlayment, and inadequate ventilation, then correct the underlying cause, not just the symptom.
Granule Loss On Aging Roofs
Many roofs across Fountaintown and Van Buren Township are 25 to 50 years old, and heavy tree canopy accelerates granule loss through debris scrubbing and moss growth. Once the mat is exposed, UV finishes the shingle in a hurry. We measure granule wear during the inspection and tell you honestly whether you have years of life left or are due for replacement.
Choosing the Right Roof for Fountaintown Homes
An honest breakdown of the three systems we install most frequently.
Architectural asphalt shingles are the most common choice on Fountaintown roofs, and for good reason. They balance a reasonable installed cost with real curb appeal, dependable wind and rain performance, and a wide color range that suits both older farmhouses and mid century ranches. Modern architectural shingles carry strong manufacturer warranties, typically covering the material for decades against manufacturing defects. They are heavier and thicker than the old three tab shingles they replaced, which improves both look and lifespan. For most homes in the area, an architectural asphalt roof is the sensible choice that will hold up well against central Indiana weather.
Class 4 impact resistant shingles are built to take the kind of hail that bruises and cracks standard asphalt. In Fountaintown, where spring and summer bring hail producing storms through Shelby County on a regular basis, that extra durability translates into fewer emergency repairs and longer granule life on your roof. Some insurance carriers offer a premium credit for Class 4 roofs, so it is worth asking your carrier directly whether your policy would reflect the upgrade. We cannot promise a discount on your behalf. The upfront cost is higher than standard architectural, but for hail prone properties it often pays back over the roof's life.
Standing seam metal is the longest lived of the three options, commonly running 40 to 60 years or more when installed correctly. The panels use concealed fasteners rather than exposed screws, which removes the most common failure point on lower grade metal roofs. Metal sheds snow and ice cleanly, resists wind uplift, and needs very little upkeep once installed. The tradeoff is honest, the upfront cost is meaningfully higher than asphalt, and you are paying now for decades of low maintenance later. For Fountaintown homeowners who plan to stay in the home long term, that math often works out.
