This is the Garner 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 Garner: 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
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.
Usually, and sometimes dramatically. Ask the quote to include the documentation your carrier needs — in Florida that's a wind mitigation form, in Texas it's the impact-rated shingle certification.
