Wilmington roof conditions
Wilmington housing and exposure.
Wilmington has a wide mix of housing, and many buildings carry more than one roof age or roofing material. That's different from a single mid-life shingle roof under trees in Leland, or the open beach exposure on Carolina Beach and Kure Beach.
Roof replacement in Wilmington, NC
Repeated leaks, widespread shingle wear or repairs on several slopes are reasons to have the whole roof checked. If your home has a newer addition or porch, tell us which parts were reroofed and when. They may not need the same work as the main roof.
Before choosing shingles or metal, ask what will happen to the old roofing, damaged decking, flashing and vents. Our replacement estimate checklist helps you compare what each price includes. For a smaller problem, see roof repair options.
We carry workers’ compensation and general liability insurance. Every installation comes with our one-year warranty on labor and materials, along with the standard manufacturer warranties. If your project needs a permit, we take care of it. For shingle roofs we usually recommend CertainTeed or GAF 30-year shingles. For metal, we offer 5-V, Multi-Rib, and standing seam, and we recommend painted panels of at least 26 gauge. Our roof replacement page walks through materials, estimates, and what the visit covers.
Roof inspections and estimates are free. Tell us your neighborhood, what you've noticed and any past repairs.
Common Wilmington issues
Start with what you can already see.
A ceiling stain after rain, lifted shingles or a leaking joint between roof sections is a reason to have the roof checked.
