Roof Replacement in Charleston

Roof Replacement in Charleston, SC.

A full roof replacement is the biggest exterior project most Charleston homeowners take on, so it pays to hire a proven roofing company, not a passing storm-chaser. In 2026 a new asphalt-shingle roof here runs about $9,000–$25,000, and standing-seam metal $18,000–$44,000, depending on size, pitch, and tear-off. Given Charleston's hurricane wind, impact-resistant and architectural shingles are popular choices that can lower insurance premiums. Whether you need residential roofing on a single-family home or a full re-roof after storm damage, we match you with vetted, warranty-backed Charleston roofers — free.

Roof Replacement in Charleston

How Charleston roof replacement works.

Every Charleston pro we match you with is licensed, insured, and warranty-backed. Here's what a good job looks like.

Tear off the old roof

Your pros strip the worn roof down to the deck so the new one sits on a clean, solid base.

Fix the wood underneath

They replace any soft or rotten decking. A strong roof starts with a strong base — no shortcuts.

New water barrier

Fresh underlayment and flashing seal the weak spots and keep the leaks out for years.

Clean up and haul away

They sweep for nails, haul off the old roof, and leave your yard clean.

Roofing in Charleston

What's local about a Charleston roof.

Charleston's Lowcountry takes Atlantic hurricanes, wind, and heavy humidity — a combination that ages roofs fast and drives frequent replacements.

Main threat Hurricane wind
Busiest window Hurricane season, June–November
Areas covered Mount Pleasant, North Charleston, Summerville, James Island, and the Lowcountry

High wind lifts and peels shingles and drives rain under the edges, so Charleston roofs need tight fastening, sealed flashing, and code-level wind ratings.
