Recently had this excellent team replace our roof following high winds damage. From start to finish we felt like family and we could not be happier with the result and price. Excellent material and professional installation and follow up.

Greensboro's housing runs from the historic districts near downtown through large post-war neighborhoods to newer subdivisions on the edges, so roofs range from fourth-cycle to first. Before quoting we check how many layers are on the deck, because two layers is the legal maximum and a house that has been reroofed over the top twice needs a full tear-off, which we price as a separate line so you can see it.
On 15 April 2018 an EF-2 tornado with 135 mph winds touched down on I-40 and ran 16 miles north-east across the east side of the city. The National Weather Service noted blue tarps still on roofs months later. That is why we talk about material as well as color: architectural shingle with proper ice and water shield handles most Greensboro roofs, and standing seam metal earns its cost on a house you plan to keep through a few more of those.
Greensboro's housing runs from the historic districts near downtown through large post-war neighborhoods to newer subdivisions on the edges, so roofs range from fourth-cycle to first.
Tornado wind is what a Greensboro roof has to survive. Ice and water shield at the eaves and valleys, proper flashing and a shingle rated for the wind are not upgrades here, they are the job.
State law exempts a like-for-like roof replacement from a permit when it costs $40,000 or less and touches no more than 15 percent of the roof deck. Inside the city the Development Services office issues permits and states that replacing roofing needs none; outside the limits Guilford County Inspections takes over.
Cost, time, what is included and what backs it, before you pick up the phone.
A typical 2,000 square foot home runs $12,900 to $17,000 in architectural shingle, torn off; standing seam metal is roughly double. Ranges by size are in our cost guide; financing is available.
Most homes are torn off and reroofed in a day; large or steep roofs take two. Quotes in Greensboro are booked ahead.

Most roof work in Greensboro starts the same way, and most of it is covered by your homeowner policy. Here is the order it happens in.
A GAF Certified inspector gets on the roof, photographs the damage and measures it, then hands you a written report. It costs nothing and it stays free whether or not you hire us.
Free roof inspectionThe report goes in as evidence, so the claim is backed by documentation rather than a description. We meet your field adjuster on the roof so nothing gets left off the scope. Denied already? That can be challenged.
Roof damage insurance claimsLeaks, missing shingles, failed flashing and full storm restoration, starting with a temporary cover when the roof is open to the weather. If it is past repairing, we show you the numbers on a replacement instead.
