Serving Memphis, Shelby County, TN
The Memphis roofing company that answers its own phone
James Russell Roofing & Restorations is headquartered right here on Poplar Ave. When you call about Memphis roof repair or a full replacement, you reach the family that owns the company, not a call center three states away.

Since September 2018, Jaime and Chris Byram have built this company on more than 500 documented roofing and restoration projects, most of them within a short drive of our own office. We know Memphis roofs because Memphis is home.
Few cities ask more of a roofing company than this one. Housing here spans a wide range of eras, from pre-WWII homes in Midtown's historic districts to postwar and newer suburban construction farther east. A 1920s Cooper-Young bungalow with layered old shingles needs a different plan than a 1990s East Memphis two-story, and we quote each one honestly instead of forcing every house into the same package.
We work across the city, from Downtown and Midtown out through East Memphis, Whitehaven, Frayser, Raleigh, and Hickory Hill, and in the neighborhoods around landmarks like Overton Park and Shelby Farms Park. Whether the job is a targeted Memphis roof repair after a windstorm or a full Atlas or Owens Corning replacement, it starts the same way: a free inspection with photos of what we actually find.
