Roofers the Crystal Coast Can Count On
Morehead City sees a lot more storm activity (and damage) than almost anywhere else on the North Carolina coast. According to the city’s own hazard data, Morehead City deals with a hurricane or tropical storm every 1.9 years. Florence alone dropped 25 inches of rain, while Isabel rolled through with 100 mph winds that devastated hundreds of homes. Here in Morehead City, it’s not a matter of if a storm’ll hit, it’s when.
That type of consistent storm history puts roofs right at the forefront. Aside from storms, homes on Bogue Sound and the waterfront deal with coastal air and wind exposure all year-round, not just storms. And, depending on where you live and when your home was built, your roof may already be past its expected lifespan without showing obvious signs yet. RoofVantage serves Morehead City as part of our Greater Wilmington service area. Whether you need roof repair in Morehead City, NC, a full roof replacement, or a roof inspection before a sale or after a storm, we’ll come give you a hand.
Roof Repairs in Morehead City, NC
Roof repairs are what we see everyday in this area. Just because you need a repair doesn’t mean you’ll need a full-on replacement. Small problems (flashing damage, lifted shingles, localized leaks, etc.) are pretty much par for the course over the course of a roof’s lifespan. Our team has been repairing roofs for years and has seen what the Carolina Coast can do to them.
Roof Replacement & Installation in Morehead City, NC
Sometimes, your roof’s at the end of its lifespan or it has extensive damage that’s not realistic to repair. That’s when roof replacements are the right course. When you’re replacing your roof, there are a few materials to choose from.
Asphalt Shingle Roofing
Asphalt shingle roofing is the most common choice in Carteret County. They’re cost-effective, more versatile, and give you a chance to customize the look and feel of your home a bit. RoofVantage is actually a CertainTeed ShingleMaster certified installer. You can also choose impact-resistant options worth considering on the Crystal Coast.
Metal Roofing
Metal roofing is great for weathering the elements. Along with violent weather, metal does a great job at shrugging off the heat, humidity, coastal air, and UV rays. Metal roofs have a long lifespan, too, up to 70 or so years. If you’re in for the long haul, this is an option worth your attention.
Tile Roofing
We don’t see a lot of tile roofing here on the coast, but tile’s also a great option. They look great, giving homes a Mediterranean-feel. They also have a 50+ year lifespan, and solid salt air resistance.
FORTIFIED Roof Systems
If you’re in Morehead City, you’re eligible for FORTIFIED standards. Given how frequent storms are here, this is an option well worth your consideration. You can get to $8,000 in grant funding, plus potential insurance premium reductions. Ask us about it before we start any work and we can walk you through it.
Storm Damage Roof Repair in Morehead City, NC
Coming out on the other side of a big storm without any damage to your property or roof is a big deal. But the odds are against you here on the coast. Ophelia, Florence, Isabel; these storms and others prove that, while life here’s beautiful a majority of the time, if you’re not prepared, storm damage can upend your life (and your home).
RoofVantage has been helping the people of Morehead City and North Carolina deal with extensive storm damage. From shingle dents from hail to full-on replacements after the latest named storm, we’re there for our neighbors.
