Residential Roofing Services in Raleigh, NC

From Storm-Tested Needs to Trusted Solutions

Raleigh homeowners know: a roof isn’t a luxury—it’s the first line of defense against humidity, summer storms, and sudden wind bursts. In our region, neglect doesn’t just show up; it compounds. One soft shingle. One flashing crack. It only takes a few missed details to create long-term problems.

That’s where Summit Roofing of NC steps in.

We’re not here to sell. We’re here to install roofs that last. Since 2018, we’ve worked to push back against the shortcuts that plague this industry—doing the job the right way, not the fast way. No templates, no scripts, no subcontractors. Just a local team, grounded in integrity, who cares about your home like it’s our own.

We live here. We know the climate, the codes, the way water runs in a Raleigh storm. Our residential roofing services are not guesswork—it’s repeatable, disciplined craftsmanship rooted in what actually holds up in the Greater Triangle.

Residential Roof Installation – Systems That Start Strong

A roof is only as reliable as the way it’s installed. Our installation process doesn’t just meet code—it meets the local climate head-on.

Asphalt Shingle Options

• Architectural (Dimensional): Built for performance and curb appeal, with synthetic underlayment and ridge ventilation.
• Luxury Shingles: Heavyweight options with bold texture, upgraded flashing, and stronger adhesives—built to resist Raleigh’s heat and hail.
• Standard 3-Tab: A budget-conscious option still installed with full care—because even basic deserves integrity.

Metal Roofing

• Standing Seam: Hidden fasteners, clean expansion, and a 40-year warranty.
• Exposed Fastener: Straightforward, storm-tested, and precisely installed to minimize movement and leaks.

Specialty Roofing Materials

• Flat Systems (TPO, EPDM, PVC): Membrane systems installed with clean slope and tight seals.
• Tile, Slate, Cedar: Natural or synthetic materials for homeowners looking to blend durability with timeless appeal.

Residential Roof Replacement – When You’re Ready to Start Fresh

Some roofs can’t be patched—they need a new start. We tear down old materials, inspect everything underneath, and replace from the decking up.

What We Replace

• Asphalt Shingles: Basic to luxury, with lifetime warranties on materials.
• Metal Systems: From $35K–$50K, these systems earn their price in longevity.
• Flat Roofing: Starting around $20K, perfect for low-slope builds that need drainage clarity.

Each system we install is designed to meet both Raleigh’s weather and your home’s demands—not someone else’s generic checklist.

Residential Roof Repairs – Smart, Honest Fixes

If your roof doesn’t need to be replaced, we will be honest with you. Our repair team handles:

• Shingles and flashing
• Roof leaks and deck damage
• Chimney bases, vents, skylights, soffits, and fascia

We don’t just patch. We fix it at the root.

FAQs About Residential Roofing in Raleigh

How do I know if I need a new roof?

You’ll know you need a new roof when the signs become unmistakable—curled or missing shingles, granule loss, leaks, or a sagging deck. In Raleigh’s climate, those early signs compound fast, and an honest inspection helps you decide if a replacement, rather than a patchwork plan, delivers real protection.

Can you install a new roof over my old one?

Can we install a new roof over your old one? We don’t recommend it. Layering new shingles over old hides potential issues, limits ventilation, voids warranties, and makes future leaks harder to trace. We’ll always advise removal first—so you get a roof built to perform, not one that masks problems.

What are the most common roofing materials, and how do I choose?

What are the most common roofing materials, and how do you choose among them? Asphalt shingles are typically budget-friendly and flexible; metal roofing offers long-term durability; and materials like tile, slate, or cedar bring beauty but demand structural support and upkeep. We help you make choices that balance aesthetics, budget, and performance for Raleigh conditions.

How long should my roof last in Raleigh?

How long should your roof last here? Asphalt shingles typically last 25–30 years, metal roofing 40+ years, and tile or slate can stretch beyond 50. But every roof’s lifespan depends on installation, ventilation, weather exposure, and upkeep. We aim to install for the long haul, not just the low bid.

How long does a typical roof replacement take?

How long does a roof replacement take? For most Raleigh homes, a full replacement timeline is 1 to 3 days—assuming good weather and a straightforward structure. Complex builds or underlying damage can extend that, but we always provide clear expectations—no surprises.

Does homeowner’s insurance cover roof replacement?

Does your homeowner’s insurance cover roof replacement? Often, yes—if your roof was damaged by wind, hail, or another covered event. Normal wear and aging typically aren’t covered. If you suspect storm damage, we’ll help you document it and work with your insurer for the best possible outcome.
