Charleston roofing questions, answered

Straight answers about roof repair, replacement, warranties, insurance claims and more.

Roof repairs

How do I know if my roof needs repair?

Look for missing shingles, leaks inside, water stains on ceilings and any damage after a storm. If you’re unsure, request a free inspection.

Do you offer emergency roof repair in Charleston?

Yes. We offer emergency repairs in Charleston, Mount Pleasant, James Island and nearby areas for storm damage and active leaks.

How long does a roof repair take?

Most repairs take a few hours to a full day, depending on the extent of the damage.

Roof replacement

When should I replace my roof?

Asphalt shingle roofs in Charleston typically last 15 to 30 years, and metal roofs often last longer, but coastal humidity, salt air and frequent storms can shorten that. We’ll only recommend a replacement when repair no longer makes sense.

What roofing materials do you offer?

Asphalt shingles, metal roofing and energy-efficient options. For our coastal climate we often recommend metal or high-quality architectural shingles.

How much does a roof replacement cost in Charleston?

Cost depends on the roof’s size, material and complexity. We provide a free, detailed written estimate.
