Baker Roofing and your other options
Baker Roofing Company is a long-established North Carolina roofing contractor, founded in Raleigh in 1915 and best known for commercial roofing.
Charlotte homeowners have many residential roofers to choose from, and the National Roofing Directory lists them by city with their services.
Signs a repair is enough
The damage is isolated
A few missing or creased shingles after a wind event, one leaking pipe boot, or a small section of failed flashing are usually repair jobs.
The roof is mid-life
Asphalt shingle roofs commonly last around 20 to 30 years, depending on the product and the attic ventilation. A roof well inside that range with localized damage is a repair candidate.
The deck is sound
If the decking under the leak is dry and firm, replacing a section of shingles and underlayment is often enough.
Signs it is time to replace
Widespread granule loss or curling
Bald, curled or cracked shingles across several slopes mean the roof is wearing out, not just damaged.
Repeated leaks in different places
Chasing one leak after another often costs more over time than a new roof.
Storm damage across the roof
Hail bruising or wind damage on several slopes may be covered by homeowners insurance. Have the roof inspected and documented before anything is repaired.
Getting a straight answer in Charlotte
Ask two or three contractors to inspect the same roof and to put their recommendation — repair or replace — in writing with photos. If they disagree, ask each one to explain why.

Repair or replacement questions
How do I know if my Charlotte roof needs repair or replacement?
Isolated damage on a roof in the middle of its life is usually a repair. Widespread wear, repeated leaks in different spots, or damage across several slopes points to replacement. Get the recommendation in writing with photos.
How long does an asphalt shingle roof last?
Commonly around 20 to 30 years, depending on the shingle product, attic ventilation, installation quality and storm exposure.
Should I call my insurance company after a storm?
Photograph the damage and have a roofer inspect it. If the damage is significant, report it to your insurer promptly — most policies require prompt notice of a loss.
