Roof replacement in Burlington, NC, built to last

Age and pattern. Isolated damage — one valley, a pipe boot, a strip of wind-lifted shingles — is a repair. Granule loss everywhere, curling edges and leaks in more than one place mean the material is spent. We photograph what we find and tell you which one you have.

Most single-family roofs come off and go back on in a couple of working days once materials are on site. Steep pitch, extra existing layers and rotten decking add time, and you get the expected number of days in writing with your quote.

If a covered event did the damage — hail, wind, a fallen limb — often yes. Normal wear and age are not covered. We document the damage with photos and measurements, file it with your carrier, and build the scope around what gets approved.

Only what needs it. Decking is inspected once the old roof is off, and any sheathing that is soft, delaminated or rotten is replaced before underlayment goes down. Replacement decking is priced per sheet, so you are not guessing at the cost.

We watch the forecast and only tear off what we can dry in the same day. If weather turns, the exposed deck is covered and secured before the crew leaves. Your house is never left open overnight.

No. Most customers are at work. We need the driveway, and a way inside if there is attic work. You get photos of anything we find and a walkthrough at the end.

It depends on the size and pitch of the roof, how many layers come off, the condition of the decking and the material you choose. Anyone quoting a figure before they have measured your roof is guessing. We inspect, measure, photograph and hand you an itemized written price — free, with nothing to sign that day.

North Carolina policies generally cover sudden damage from a covered event — hail, wind, a fallen limb — and exclude ordinary wear and age. Many carriers here now settle older roofs on a depreciated basis rather than replacement cost, so the payout depends on your policy wording. We document the damage, meet the adjuster and build the scope around what is approved.

Usually yes. A replacement is permitted work under the North Carolina Residential Code, and it goes through Alamance County inspections or your city office depending on where the house sits. We handle the permit as part of the job and the record stays in your file for resale.
