Shingle Repair

Shingle repair is one of the most popular exterior services for residences. The best roofing contractors in Charlotte and Concord specialize in shingle repair, and can consult with you to determine the extent of your damage, the timeline and cost of replacement, and the materials available.

Damage

Damage to your roof can lead to a number of interior problems with your home, primarily evidenced by temperature inconsistencies and water leaks. In the summer, a damaged roof can cause your air conditioning system to work harder to maintain coolness, increasing your energy bill. Similarly, in the winter, poor insulation can cause your heating system to work harder to maintain warmth, again increasing your bill. Other indications of temperature-related damage include peeling or blistering paint or plaster on your ceilings or walls. Interior damage related to water includes water stains on your ceilings, and water leaking into your attic or topmost floor. Outdoor elements can cause a lot of exterior damage as well.
