Our team's GAF Master Elite certification guarantees adherence to the highest industry standards, backed by a 5-year workmanship warranty and lifetime material warranties from manufacturers.
Storm Damage Repair
We specialize in urgent storm damage repairs for roofs, siding, and windows. Our rapid response team addresses hail, wind, and hurricane damage within 24-48 hours, coordinating with insurance claims to minimize out-of-pocket costs. Using impact-resistant materials and proven repair methods, we restore structural integrity while preventing future leaks and energy inefficiency caused by storm-related wear.
James Hardie Siding
As certified James Hardie installers, we provide durable fiber cement siding resistant to fire, termites, and extreme weather. Our siding solutions enhance curb appeal while improving energy efficiency through advanced insulation properties. Available in multiple textures and colors, our installations include proper flashing and sealing to prevent moisture intrusion in North Carolina's humid climate.
Window Installation
We install energy-efficient vinyl and composite windows designed to withstand hurricane-force winds and reduce HVAC costs. Our replacement process maintains structural integrity while upgrading aesthetics, with options for custom shapes, low-E glass, and lifetime warranties. Proper installation techniques prevent air leaks and water infiltration common in older window systems.
Commercial Roofing
Our commercial roofing solutions cater to warehouses, retail spaces, and industrial facilities across the Triangle region. We install TPO, EPDM, and metal roofing systems with emphasis on leak prevention and energy efficiency. Projects include roof coatings for improved insulation, scheduled maintenance programs, and minimal-disruption installations during non-business hours for operational continuity.
