Popular roof types around Charleston

Many homeowners here choose high-wind-rated architectural shingles, concrete or clay tile, or standing-seam metal. Ask roofers about wind ratings, secondary water barriers and how the roof deck is fastened.

Local tip: After a named storm, report damage to your insurer quickly and be careful with out-of-town crews going door to door. Some insurers here ask about a roof's age before renewing a policy, so keep your installation paperwork.
