Finding the best Charlotte roofing contractor to replace my shingle roof


I do not know a lot about roof shingles. How can I tell if my shingles need replacing? Where can I find a professional roofer who will install quality asphalt shingles, and deliver great service?

Asphalt shingles have held top reviews for residential roofing use. Roofing shingles these days are manufactured in several different colors, textures and shapes, are low maintenance, affordable, offer great fire and wind resistance, and depending on the quality of the shingle and the thickness of the asphalt, can last between 10 and 35 years. Asphalt roofs, however, do not last forever.  

How can I tell if my roof needs to be replaced?
Make a quick inspection. Walk around the house with binoculars, and check the roof for cracked, curled or missing shingles. Take a flashlight into the attic and look at the underside of the roof deck and rafters for any stains or wet spots that might indicate water leaks. Check the attic floor and contents for water damage, too, and then check downstairs ceilings, especially around light fixtures and in corners. If you see signs that shingles are damaged or aging, or see signs of leaks, call local Charlotte roof installers to perform an inspection. Advanced Roofing and Exteriors in Charlotte, with service extending to the Ft Mill and Rock Hill SC areas as well, are expert roofers with extensive experience with asphalt shingles.

Charlotte roofers repair my asphalt roof shingles, and more!


I figured the recent strong winds that hit my home outside of Charlotte NC would have me looking for someone to repair my asphalt roof shingles; or maybe do an entire roof replacement. . I set out to find someone in the Ft Mill and Rock Hill SC area to fix my damaged roof. This is what I found out.

Repair my asphalt roof shingles!
Some roofing contractors restrict their work
If I need someone to fix my damaged roof, I want a roofing company that does roof repair, too, and not automatically push for a roof replacement.  I also found out that not all roofing contractors provide free roof estimates!

The Internet and Angie’s List
I found hundreds of listings in the Charlotte area alone! So I dug further in, and logged onto Angie’s List, to find a shorter listing of preferred roofing contractors. There, I found Advanced Roofing and Exteriors, who include Ft Mill and Rock Hill SC in their Charlotte service area. They offer free roof estimates!

Roof estimates and more
I asked the roofing experts at Advanced Roofing and Exteriors and they confirmed they could repair my asphalt roof shingles and I did not need an entire roof replacement. What a relief! While I was silently thanking my lucky stars they would fix my damaged roof, they asked if I might want help with my insurance claims. I sure got lucky when I found a roofing company that will repair my asphalt roof shingles without trying to sell me an entire roof replacement, doesn’t charge for roof estimates, and will help me with my roof insurance claims, for free!

Leaks and spots on the ceiling let me know I needed someone to repair my asphalt roof shingles, and they led me to Advanced Roofing and Exteriors in Charlotte NC.  Go online and visit their website at www.AdvancedRoofingandExteriors.com.
