FAQs
How do I know if my roof needs to be replaced?
Common signs include visible damage such as missing or curling shingles, leaks inside the home, dark streaks on the roof surface, and excessive shingle granules in gutters. If your roof is 15–20 years old or older, it may also be time for an inspection to check for underlying structural issues.
What types of roofing materials work best for Charleston’s climate?
Charleston’s humid subtropical climate, which features heat, humidity, and occasional storms, calls for durable materials such as asphalt shingles, metal roofing, and synthetic slate. These materials resist moisture, stand up to high winds, and help keep your home cool in hot weather.
How long does a typical roof replacement project take?
A complete replacement usually takes between one and three days, depending on the size and complexity of the roof. More extensive projects or those on historical or large homes can take longer, but our goal is always to complete work efficiently while maintaining high-quality standards.
What factors can affect the cost of a roof replacement?
Key factors include the size and pitch of your roof, the materials chosen, the condition of underlying decking or framing, and any necessary upgrades such as ventilation improvements. Additionally, accessibility challenges, removal of existing layers, and local code requirements may also influence the final cost.
How can I prepare my home before the roofing team arrives?
Before your project begins, it’s wise to move vehicles away from the driveway and protect any valuable items in the attic or around the house. If possible, trim tree branches near your roof to allow our team safe, open access. Removing fragile hanging items from walls or ceilings can also prevent potential damage caused by vibrations.
Do you work on older or historical homes in Charleston?
Yes. We have extensive experience with a range of property styles, including historical and older homes. We know how to adhere to local building codes, preserve architectural charm, and ensure that any historical requirements are met while providing a durable, modern roof replacement.
