## Roof Replacement Project Overview

For a full roof replacement, the most common options are asphalt shingle replacement, metal roof installation, and flat or low-slope roof replacement. Slate, tile, and wood are less common, but the contractors listed below may offer them. Many homeowners bundle roof replacement and gutter replacement.

Roof repairs are a good option for isolated problems on a roof that still has enough remaining life that replacement isn't justified. Roof inspections are a separate service that can make sense when you're buying a home, after a major storm, or when you're getting conflicting opinions from contractors about whether you need a repair or replacement.

## What Drives Raleigh Roof Replacement Costs?

Installed cost in Raleigh runs roughly **2% below** the national average for this trade. Here's how we got to that number.

Project costs include three main components: labor, materials, and overhead. Material ships at national prices no matter where you live, and overhead is fairly consistent as well. So the main pricing difference between metro areas is labor costs. This is why a quote from a high-wage metro is rarely as far above the national average as people expect.

To get Raleigh labor costs, we compared the average hourly wage in the Raleigh-Cary, NC area to the national average hourly wage for this trade. (source: US Bureau of Labor Statistics, Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics, May 2025)

We found that the local trade wages sit about **11% below** the national figure. Labor costs typically make up about **22%** of a roof replacement project cost, so the weighted difference between Raleigh and national averages is **−2%**. [See methodology and sources.](/how-we-calculate-costs/index.md)

## Roof Replacement Permitting in Raleigh

Permit complexity Simple Moderate Complex Permit complexity in Raleigh is rated simple.

It depends on the scope of your project, so you should talk to the permitting authority to find out what your project needs. In general, Raleigh permitting is simple compared to other metros we cover.

Permitting for structural, roofing work in this area goes through Wake County.

You should ask each contractor if they pull the permits for you and if the fee for pulling permits is included in their quote. Also, tell them you need to see the written, approved permit before work starts.

North Carolina requires a state license for roof replacement work. ([source](https://www.ncleg.gov/EnactedLegislation/Statutes/HTML/BySection/Chapter_87/GS_87-1.html), verified as of 2026-08-12)  [What that means and how to verify a contractor in North Carolina →](/roofing/roofers/nc/index.md)

## Roof Replacement Contractors in Raleigh Ranked by Homeowners

Here are the roof replacement companies NC homeowners in and around Raleigh turn to, ranked by real customer rating and review volume, no filler. [See our Editorial Standards.](/editorial-standards/index.md)

Home Genius Exteriors

★★★★★ 4.8 [Google · Raleigh, NC location (201 reviews)](https://www.google.com/maps/place/x/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x89ac59d918af073b:0x9f603121d0729580) as of August 2026

Highest-rated multi-trade exterior contractor. Full roofing + siding + windows from one company.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Home Genius Exteriors holds Owens Corning Platinum Preferred status alongside James Hardie Elite Preferred and CertainTeed 5-Star contractor certifications, and covers roofing, siding, windows, doors, gutters and attic insulation. Reviewers name their project manager more often than almost anything else about the job, and describe them staying involved and checking in through to the finish. Siding and gutter work draws the warmest praise for how it looks once finished, and most installs wrap up in just a few days. Their free inspection is thorough and photo-led, with some homeowners noting drone footage of the roof itself. Promotional discounts are tiered by trade rather than applying across the board, so ask what your specific project qualifies for. If your roof is flat or low-slope, ask what warranty comes with it, since those systems are covered differently.

Best Choice Roofing

★★★★★ 4.7 Google · pooled across 28 US locations (6,696 reviews) as of August 2026

Storm damage specialists with insurance claim expertise in 50+ markets nationwide.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Best Choice Roofing’s genuine strength is in insurance claims. It is the single thing reviewers write about most, consistently across branches from Kentucky to Nevada. They describe a rep who photographs and documents the damage, then turns up in person to meet the insurance adjuster on the roof, which is the part homeowners say made the difference. Several reviewers also single out a rep for saying plainly when storm damage was not going to be covered, rather than pushing a claim that was not there. Roofs are typically stripped and replaced in a day, and the company also fits gutters, siding and insulation. Its warranty tiers are built on GAF, with claims filed directly to GAF, while its Owens Corning Platinum Preferred status is a certification rather than a warranty. It is worth keeping those two separate when you compare quotes. Because homeowners have found warranty transfer and repair coverage vary by location, ask your rep to confirm both in writing before you sign.

Pinnacle Home Improvement

★★★★★ 4.6 [Google · flagship location (1,095 reviews)](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Pinnacle+Home+Improvements:+Atlanta/@34.1047681,-84.2069768,761m/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x88f59e79c249f155:0xa73d3a40aaf42f22!8m2!3d34.1047681!4d-84.2069768!16s%2Fg%2F11ckqrstln) as of August 2026

Southeast roofing and windows. Storm claim assistance in GA, TN, NC, AL, FL.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Pinnacle Home Improvements has been family-led since 1988 and works across Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama and North Carolina, covering roofing, windows, siding, doors and gutters. It is a GAF Master Elite contractor, a distinction held by a small share of roofers nationwide. Windows and siding are what homeowners write about most, across more than one of its markets, and they are specific about why: draft elimination, the finished look of new siding, and crews who removed their shoes on the way in. The salesperson is named and praised in nearly every positive review, and several note the consultation was educational rather than a pitch. One practical note: Pinnacle asks that both homeowners attend the in-home appointment, so plan for that when you schedule.

Homefix Custom Remodeling

★★★★★ 4.1 [Google · Morrisville, NC location (283 reviews)](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Homefix+Roofing+and+Window+Installation+of+Raleigh/data=!4m7!3m6!1s0x89acf1a295cdc2e5:0xbea9fc30ef4126b4!8m2!3d35.8482552!4d-78.8027085!16s%2Fg%2F11f3zppyjn!19sChIJ5cLNlaLxrIkRtCZB7zD8qb4) as of August 2026

GAF Master Elite since 1990. 100% Lifetime Guarantee on roofing, gutters, siding in Mid-Atlantic.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Homefix Custom Remodeling has worked across Maryland, Virginia and North Carolina since 1990, covering roofing, siding, windows, doors, gutters and solar. It states plainly that it does not use subcontractors. Its own crews do the work, and reviewers across its different markets back that up by name, crediting installers and crews for turning a full roof or a house of windows around in a day or two. It is a GAF Certified Master Elite roofing contractor. Its warranty is branded UltraCare, and the word lifetime carries specific year caps by product rather than being open-ended, so ask what applies to your job. If your project involves a color-matched material like siding, ask to see and sign off on the exact sample before installation day, and ask upfront how a warranty service call gets scheduled.

Erie Home

★★★★★ 4.5 Google · pooled across 19 US locations (6,606 reviews) as of August 2026

Stone-coated metal roofing specialist. 34+ states, 50-year transferable warranty, $0 down financing.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Erie Home’s install crews draw the same specific praise at branch after branch: cleanup. Reviewers describe a full tear-off (sometimes stripping two layers of old shingles) finished in well under a day, with every nail and scrap of packaging cleared and the dumpster hauled away before the crew leaves. Their core product is stone-coated steel roofing, a heavier-duty alternative to asphalt backed by a fifty-year transferable warranty covering manufacturing and installation defects, including wind and hail. Erie Home’s two divisions are Roofing Systems and Basement Solutions, and it shares ownership with LeafFilter under Leaf Home. Metal costs more up front than asphalt; the trade-off is longevity and storm resistance. If you are quoted asphalt instead, ask how the warranty changes after year ten, since labor is covered differently from that point on.
