Roofing Jobs in Tennessee: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a roofing contractor in Tennessee?
To work independently or lead jobs in Tennessee, you must hold a license issued by the Tennessee Board for Licensing Contractors, which requires passing a trade exam and a business-law exam along with proof of insurance and a financial statement. Workers employed by a licensed contractor do not need their own license but benefit from completing a formal apprenticeship through a local roofing trade program or the United Union of Roofers, Waterproofers and Allied Workers.
Which companies hire roofings in Tennessee?
Tennessee roofing roles are posted by Best Choice Roofing, Eskola, and Mr. Handyman and others right now, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Large regional and national contractors tend to maintain steady Tennessee operations because the state's frequent storm seasons and ongoing residential construction keep replacement and new-build work consistent year-round.
Which Tennessee cities have the most roofing jobs?
Nashville, Knoxville, and Memphis lead Tennessee for roofing openings. Nashville's rapid residential and commercial development drives the bulk of demand, Memphis generates consistent re-roofing work tied to its large older housing stock and warehouse district, and Knoxville supports steady activity through both new construction and university-area renovation projects.
Are there remote roofing jobs in Tennessee?
Yes, but they're rare. About 19% of roofing openings tied to Tennessee are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, since the core work is physically on-site. The roles most likely to carry any remote component are estimating, project coordination, or sales positions with a roofing contractor rather than hands-on installation or inspection work.
How can I get hired as a roofing worker in Tennessee with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is applying as a roofing laborer or helper with a licensed Tennessee contractor willing to train on the job. Large companies such as Baker Roofing Company and regional storm-restoration crews regularly bring on helpers during peak season in Nashville and Memphis. Enrolling in an apprenticeship through the United Union of Roofers, Waterproofers and Allied Workers gives structured training and a wage scale. Earning an OSHA 10 card before applying signals safety awareness and gives candidates a genuine edge over other first-time applicants.
Where can I find and apply to roofing jobs in Tennessee?
