This is the Matthews page for roof replacement. The short version: you want a firm number for a new roof without a sales visit, and you can have it without a salesperson at the door.
Get a written quoteSummer thunderstorms, not hurricanes, cause most of the roof damage here: straight-line wind, lightning strikes, and the occasional tornado embedded in a squall line. Inland homes miss the surge but not the wind — tropical systems shed speed slowly over Florida's flat terrain. Original tile roofs from the '80s and '90s are reaching underlayment failure now, and that's a lift-and-reset or full replacement, not a tile repair.
What it costs in Matthews: a full replacement on a typical single-family home runs from the low five figures for architectural shingle to several times that for standing-seam metal or concrete tile — the pitch, number of layers coming off, and decking condition move the number more than square footage does.
North Carolina requires a general contractor license for any residential job over $40,000, and most full roof replacements clear that line. We verify a roofer's NC license and insurance before they're matched to any lead.
How it works
Aerial measurement gives square footage, pitch, facets, and ridge/valley/eave lengths to within a couple percent. A roofer still confirms decking and flashing details on install day, and the quote states what would change the price and by how much.
No. You need to move cars out of the driveway and take fragile items off walls, but a tear-off and install is an outdoor job. Most single-family homes are done in one to two days.

Matthews is inside the everyday service radius, so there's no travel surcharge and no "we'll be in the area next month."
