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.

Lamar Homes in Apex
Your local Apex roofing contractor
Lamar Homes Roofing covers Apex and its subdivisions. Family owned, GAF Certified, licensed and insured.
Apex has grown quickly, and that shows up in the roofs. Whole streets went up within a few years of each other, with the same builder-grade shingles going on at the same time. Twenty years later those roofs reach the end of their life at the same time too, which is why one replacement in a neighborhood is often followed by several more.
If your neighbors have started replacing theirs, it is worth having yours looked at even when nothing obvious is wrong. The inspection costs nothing.

What we see on Apex roofs
01
Whole streets aging together
Apex grew in bursts, so a subdivision often went up within two or three years. Those roofs then reach the end of their life together, which is why replacements cluster.
02
Builder-grade first roofs
Volume construction usually means the cheapest compliant shingle. The first replacement is often the first time the house gets a roof chosen rather than specified.
03
Checking before the leak
If neighbors have started replacing, it is worth an inspection even with nothing visibly wrong. The roof is the same age as theirs.
Deciding on a roof in Apex
The four things people want settled before they call anyone, answered with the numbers we publish.
01
What it costs
Repairs start at $625. A typical 2,000 square foot replacement runs $12,900 to $17,000 in architectural shingle, torn off; metal is roughly double. The inspection that tells you which one you need is free. Financing is available.
02
How long it takes
Inspections in Apex are the same week. Most repairs are one visit; most replacements are torn off and finished in a day, two for large or steep roofs.
03
What is included
The inspection from the roof with photographs and a written report; on a replacement, full tear-off, decking checked, ice and water shield, GAF shingles, new flashing and ridge vent, and a nail sweep.
04
What backs it
GAF Certified, licensed and insured, family owned. GAF's System Plus limited warranty on replacement products; our warranty page lists the terms.

James came out found the problems with the roof and gutters, damage from a storm. Took care of the paperwork and was hired to replace the roof. They started and finished in one day. Excellent job!

03

We walk you through financing options or handle the insurance claim process alongside you.
Apex is in Wake County and permitting runs through the Town of Apex.
After a storm
Hail or wind damage? Start here.
Most roof work in Apex 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.
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.
Leaks, missing shingles, failed flashing and full storm restoration, with same-day emergency service when the roof is open to the weather. If it is past repairing, we show you the numbers on a replacement instead.

Apex roofing questions
My neighbors are all replacing their roofs. Should I?
Possibly. In neighborhoods built at the same time the roofs also age at the same rate, so it is a fair prompt to get yours inspected. Whether it needs replacing depends on the condition of your roof, not theirs.
Do you cover Apex and the surrounding Wake County towns?
Yes. Apex is a straightforward drive from our Raleigh office and we work across that side of Wake County.
Half my street has replaced their roofs. Should I?
It is a fair prompt to get inspected, since houses built together age together. Whether yours needs replacing depends on your roof, not theirs.
Are builder-grade shingles worth upgrading?
Often, yes. The first replacement is usually the first real choice you get, and architectural shingles last meaningfully longer than the three-tab most builders fit.
