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.

Roof replacement in Winston-Salem, done the way the town needs it

Lamar Homes Roofing replaces roofs across Winston-Salem and Forsyth County. GAF Certified, family owned, licensed and insured.

Winston-Salem's housing runs from the historic West End and Old Salem through post-war neighborhoods to the subdivisions off the beltway; historic roofs are inspected differently. 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.

The December 2002 ice storm put half an inch or more of ice from Charlotte to Raleigh, brought down trees across the region and left more than a million customers without power for up to ten days. Winston-Salem sits inside that band. That is why we talk about material as well as color: architectural shingle with proper ice and water shield handles most Winston-Salem roofs, and standing seam metal earns its cost on a house you plan to keep through a few more of those.

Roof replacement on Winston-Salem homes: what decides the job

  • 01

    Layers and decking on Winston-Salem homes

    Winston-Salem's housing runs from the historic West End and Old Salem through post-war neighborhoods to the subdivisions off the beltway; historic roofs are inspected differently.

  • 02

    Built for ice at the eaves

    Ice at the eaves is what a Winston-Salem 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.

  • 03

    Permits in Winston-Salem

    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. The joint City-County Inspections Division covers Winston-Salem and most of Forsyth County, and treats a like-for-like replacement as exempt.

Hail or wind damage? Start here.

Most roof work in Winston-Salem starts the same way, and most of it is covered by your homeowner policy. Here is the order it happens in.

  1. Book a free roof inspection

    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 inspection
  2. We file the insurance claim

    The 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.

  3. We fix the roof

    Leaks, 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.
