Charleston's salt air, humidity, and storm exposure favor metal roofing (standing seam, 5V, or Tuff-Rib), architectural shingles, and properly sealed flat systems for commercial properties. Our team helps you choose materials based on your structure, budget, and long-term durability needs.
Most residential roof replacements in the Charleston area are completed in 1–3 days, depending on roof size and material. Commercial projects vary based on building size and scope. We provide a clear timeline with our written proposal before work begins.

We're IKO Certified, CertainTeed Certified, and Acrylabs Certified — meaning we install these manufacturers' products to spec, which supports stronger material warranties.
Signs you may need a full replacement include curling or missing shingles, granules in gutters, sagging, interior water stains, or a roof older than 20 years. Our team performs a detailed inspection and provides honest guidance on whether repair or replacement makes more sense.
