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 Lexington
Roof repair, replacement and inspection in Lexington
Lamar Homes Roofing serves Lexington and Davidson County. GAF Certified, family owned, licensed and insured. Inspections here are scheduled ahead rather than same day.
Lexington grew around furniture and textiles, and much of its housing dates from those decades: compact homes on modest lots, many on their third or fourth roof. Layers are the thing to check. Two layers of shingle is the maximum, and a house that has been reroofed over the top twice needs a full tear-off.
Weather-wise Lexington is Piedmont: the 2002 ice storm that put half an inch of ice across the region is the pattern to build for, with ice and water shield at the eaves and limbs kept off the roof.

What Lexington roofs are up against
01
Layers on older homes
Many Lexington roofs have been covered over rather than torn off. The second layer is the last one allowed; we check at the drip edge before quoting.
02
Ice storms
Piedmont freezing rain backs water up under the shingles at the eaves. Ice and water shield there is the difference between a wet ceiling and a dry one.
03
City or county permit
Lexington issues its own permits inside the city; Davidson County handles the rest. Most like-for-like replacements are exempt.
Deciding on a roof in Lexington
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 Lexington are booked ahead. 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!

Three simple steps from first call to a roof that protects what matters most.

You get a clear, itemised estimate with fair, honest pricing and no hidden costs.
03
Financing or Approved Through Insurance
We walk you through financing options or handle the insurance claim process alongside you.
Most roof work in Lexington 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, 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.

Lexington roofing questions
Where do I get a roofing permit in Lexington?
Inside the city, the City of Lexington's permit portal; outside, Davidson County Central Permitting. A like-for-like replacement under $40,000 needs no permit under state law.
How far is Lexington from your office?
About an hour and forty minutes from Raleigh. Inspections are booked ahead.
Do you serve Welcome, Tyro and the county roads around Lexington?
Yes. Davidson County properties outside the city are covered on the same scheduled visits.
Can you go over my existing shingles instead of tearing off?
Only if there is a single layer and the decking is sound. Two layers already up there means a full tear-off, which we price separately so you can see it.
