Raleigh Roofing Company

As North Carolina’s capital and the beating heart of the Triangle, Raleigh is a city of striking contrasts — grand Victorian homes in the Historic Oakwood district, classic bungalows in Boylan Heights, mid-century ranches in North Raleigh, and sleek new commercial blocks downtown. Every one of those rooftops tells a story, and Simple Construction Roofing is proud to help write the next chapter. As a roofing company serving Raleigh, NC, we bring careful craftsmanship, honest recommendations, and clear communication to every project, from a quick leak repair to a complete roof replacement.

Raleigh’s famous oak canopy is beautiful — and brutal on roofs. Falling limbs, acorn barrages, and year-round leaf litter and pollen wear down shingles and choke gutters in neighborhoods like Hayes Barton, Mordecai, and Five Points. Add in punishing summer heat, sudden hailstorms, and hurricane-season downpours, and even newer roofs take a beating. Our crews install roofing systems engineered for these exact conditions, and every project is backed by our $25,000 workmanship guarantee — so your investment stays protected for decades.

Roof Replacement in Raleigh, NC

Whether it’s a 1920s Oakwood Victorian needing a historically sensitive tear-off, a Boylan Heights bungalow whose original roof has finally given out, or a 1990s ranch in North Raleigh with curling builder-grade shingles, we handle full roof replacements with meticulous attention to flashing, ventilation, and underlayment — the details that determine how long your new roof will last. As a GAF-certified contractor, we’ve met factory standards for training and installation quality that only a fraction of roofers ever earn. Choose from architectural shingles, designer shingles that mimic slate or cedar shake, and durable metal roofing. We also install flat and low-slope roofing systems for downtown Raleigh commercial properties.

Roofing Repairs & Roof Leak Repair

A small leak never stays small. Our repair crews track down the source — damaged shingles, failing flashing, worn pipe boots, or wind-lifted edges — and fix it right the first time. If you’ve noticed water stains on your ceiling, granules collecting in your gutters, or shingles in your yard after a storm, call us before the damage spreads. We also work with landlords and property managers around the NC State campus area, where rental homes need fast, reliable turnaround between tenants.

Storm Damage Restoration

Hail, high winds, and fallen oak limbs can compromise your roof in ways that aren’t visible from the ground. We provide thorough storm damage inspections with photo documentation and full restoration services — and we can help you navigate the insurance claims process from start to finish, meeting with your adjuster to make sure nothing gets missed.

Seamless Gutters & Gutter Guards

Your gutters are your roof’s first line of defense against water damage — especially under Raleigh’s heavy tree cover. We install seamless gutters custom-fit to your Raleigh home with no leaky joints, plus gutter guards that keep oak leaves, pine needles, and pollen debris out, so water flows where it should season after season.

Roofing FAQs in Raleigh

How much does a roof replacement cost in Raleigh, NC?

Most Raleigh roof replacements fall into a range determined by your roof’s size, pitch, complexity, and material choice. A straightforward ranch home costs far less than a steep, cut-up Victorian in Oakwood. The only way to know your number is a proper inspection — which is why ours is free. We’ll measure your roof, photograph its condition, and give you an exact, itemized quote with no pressure.

How long do roofs last in Raleigh’s climate?

Architectural asphalt shingles typically last 22 to 30 years in the Raleigh area, though intense summer heat, humidity, and storm exposure can shorten that. Proper attic ventilation is the biggest factor you can control — it prevents heat and moisture from cooking your shingles from underneath. Metal roofs can last 40 to 70 years and are worth considering if you plan to stay in your home long-term.

Do you work on historic homes in Oakwood and Boylan Heights?

Yes — historic homes are some of our favorite projects. We handle careful tear-offs that protect original decking and architectural details, and we can recommend shingle styles and colors that respect your home’s historic character. If your property falls under historic district guidelines, we’ll work with you to keep the project compliant.

Will you help with my insurance claim after storm damage?

Absolutely. We document all storm damage with detailed photos, provide a clear scope of necessary repairs, and can meet your insurance adjuster on-site to make sure the damage is fully recognized. Our goal is a fair claim outcome and a roof restored to pre-storm condition — or better.

Do you handle commercial roofing in downtown Raleigh?

Yes. In addition to residential work, we install and service flat and low-slope roofing systems for downtown Raleigh commercial buildings, from small retail blocks to office properties. Contact us for a commercial roof assessment tailored to your building.

How do I choose a roofing contractor in Raleigh NC?

Start with the basics: a Raleigh roofing contractor should carry general liability insurance and workers’ comp, have a real local address, and provide references from recent jobs right here in Raleigh — not just a generic review page. Ask how long they’ve been working in the Triangle and whether they use their own crews or subcontract everything. Get a written, itemized estimate rather than a handshake number. At Simple Construction Roofing, we give free roof inspections and written quotes to Raleigh homeowners, and we’re happy to walk you through every line before you sign anything.

Are roofers required to be licensed in North Carolina?

In North Carolina, a general contractor license is required for jobs of $30,000 or more — always ask any roofer about their licensing and insurance. For smaller repair jobs, no state roofing license is required, which is exactly why doing your homework matters: verify liability insurance, workers’ comp, and a physical local presence like our office at 3802 Mitchell Mill Rd in Raleigh. Uninsured or fly-by-night outfits leave you holding the bill if something goes wrong. When you call us at (919) 576-9420, we’re glad to show you our paperwork before any work begins.
