Recognizing Metal Roofing Problems

Is Your Current Roof Failing to Protect Your Property?

Many property owners throughout Chapel Hill experience frustrating roofing issues that signal the need for metal roof replacement or professional repair. Aging asphalt shingle roofs often develop leaks, missing shingles, and granule loss that compromise protection and increase energy costs. If you're noticing water stains on interior ceilings, rising utility bills, or visible damage after storms, your roof may be reaching the end of its serviceable life. These problems rarely improve on their own and typically worsen with each weather event, potentially leading to interior damage and costly repairs.

Beyond basic wear and tear, outdated roofing materials can create ongoing maintenance headaches and vulnerability during severe weather. North Carolina properties face intense summer sun, heavy rainfall, high winds, and occasional winter ice, all of which take a toll on conventional roofing systems. Metal roofing addresses these challenges with fire-resistant, weather-resistant construction that stands up to the harshest conditions. The durable materials resist corrosion, impact damage, and thermal cycling that causes other roofing types to deteriorate prematurely.

Choosing to upgrade to metal roofing eliminates many common roofing concerns while providing long-term value. Property owners often discover that metal roof installation delivers peace of mind through reduced maintenance requirements and improved energy efficiency. If your current roof shows signs of failure or you're planning renovation work, metal roofing systems offer a smart solution that protects your property for decades. Our team conducts thorough metal roof inspections to identify existing issues and recommend the most effective approach for your situation.

Our reviews reflect the quality workmanship and professional service we bring to every project. Read what your neighbors have to say about their experience working with our friendly and professional team.

      Our experience with Chapel Hill Roofing was excellent. We were impressed with them beginning with our first interaction with Bobby (Sales). He was punctual, honest, and gave us options regarding various roofing materials. We opted for the metal 5V roof and are very very pleased with the product and the look - as he ensured we would be! The project started a few days ahead of schedule and was completed precisely when they said it would be. Ta'Riq, the supervisor on the job, was diligent and routinely updated us on progress throughout the installation. He narrated and shot multiple videos as he walked the roof and inspected the work of the crew. Ta' Riq's oversight and follow-up was impressive and appreciated. His entire crew was polite, efficient, and admittedly proud to work for Chapel Hill Roofing. There are many roofing companies to choose from, but I can highly recommend Chapel Hill Roofing - we were delighted with the work and what we felt was a very fair price.
      We recently had Chapel Hill Roofing replace the roof on our home in south Naples, and I couldn't be happier with how it turned out. From the start, they were on top of everything, providing me updates and photos at every stage so I knew exactly what was happening. There were a few unexpected repairs needed on the roof, during which Chapel Hill Roofing provided constant communications, details and pictures before and after. Their crew very clean, in which we got complements from neighbors commenting on how clean the job site was. Highly recommend them.
      Chapel Hill Roofing did an amazing job putting up our Christmas lights this year. Their team was prompt, professional and worked quickly to get the job done. Once they got started I decided I wanted more done than originally anticipated and they were happy to make it happen for me! I love the results and my kids are beyond thrilled with the Christmas spirit it provides! Thank you to an amazing team led by an amazing person Derric!
      Highly professional, detailed, thorough, and a pleasure to work with. Chapel Hill Roofing staff, especially Karl Sheen and Nancy Thompson, made the job of replacing my entire roof easy and hassle free. They handled the insurance company expertly. The construction team was on time, they cleaned up afterwards, and the results are gorgeous! One small note: how many other roofing companies would start the job with a nice bottle of wine and a thank you note left on your doorstep?!
      Making those initial calls to a few roofing companies was somewhat scary. We had 4 appointments set and only 2 even showed up. One guy came and gave us a hand written quote without even getting up on the roof. Sean came on time, did a full inspection, and came back a couple days later to go over everything with us. Our roof was put on 3 week later and everything went according to plan! Sean was here in Naples for the installation and made sure everything was cleaned up when the crew was done. We are 100% happy and would recommend Chapel Hill Roofing and Sean to anyone in need of a new roof!
      What a wonderful experience working with Chapel Hill Roofing. Very professional, timely and a pleasure to work with. Always available to take calls. Would highly recommend them.
      I've heard all the Florida stories; needing a new roof immediately puts you into this nightmare of shifty contractors, unavailable products, long wait times, and broken promises, ugh. So I was prepared for the worst when Helene took some of our roof off. I did my due diligence; I checked with my city for licensed and approved contractors, I looked at google reviews, and I called the companies that made the tile and/or metal that I was considering putting on my roof to see who they recommended in my area. That's actually how I accidentally ended up finding Chapel Hill Roofing-the tile company had sent me to a roofing company in Charlotte, NC instead of Charlotte County, FL. They were VERY confused when I called them, lol, but they strongly recommended Chapel Hill Roofing, so I checked them out online and added them to my list of 3 companies to interview. Company #1 comes out and we get the hard-press-scare-you used car salesman sales tactics. This may work on the elderly, but it didn't sit well with us. Company #2 was solid but only sold aluminum metal roofs, which was our only option besides tile because we live on the ocean and if you look closely at the steel roof warranties they aren't so happy about coastal properties. Anyhoo, the aluminum roof was $25,000 more expensive than tile. For a 1700 sq ft house. Ouch. Company #3 was Chapel Hill Roofing & Roofing. From the jump Bill was respectful, thoughtful, and asked a lot of good questions about what we wanted for a roof. He also went up on the roof and checked the existing damage from Helene. We told him we'd like three pricing options for tile, aluminum, and some fancy resin roofs out there that we were considering. His presentation was professional, quick, and balanced with the pro's and con's. One of the things we really liked was that their tile roofs are screwed on with stainless steel screws instead of nailed on with galvanized nails, which corrode and disintegrate in coastal areas in a few years. We also liked how detailed their price sheet was-we could see exactly how many stainless steel screws we were paying for. So we crossed our fingers and went with Chapel Hill Roofing. Here's where the story really gets good-they consistently under-promised and over-performed. The tile I wanted was actually in stock, and instead of having to wait for months, it was on my roof within two weeks. The project manager, Ta' Riq, created a group text and consistently sent me live video updates FROM THE ROOF as they were working on it so when issues occurred I could make the decisions on what to do in real time rather than hearing about it later. Ta' Riq was also professional and consistent. We were prepared for what to expect with the tear off as Bill had gone over it with us very thoroughly. It was amazing how many people showed up, how fast they worked, and how nothing was damaged. The people working on the roof were also nice-when I was out walking our dog they'd wave to us from the roof lol. The materials that were promised in the contract were the materials that showed up on the roof. The underlayment of a tile roof is really what keeps your house dry, and I had done my homework about what kind I wanted (Owens Corning), and it was the same type Chapel Hill Roofing recommended and installed. The teardown and dry-in was done in two days, and they hustled to get most of the roof on before we had a weird late season tropical storm. The next day they were back at it and had the roof done. All in all from signing the contract to the final approval from the city for a finished roof was about 2 weeks. That's freaking amazing. They were efficient, competent, and talented. My roof looks gorgeous. Our 27 year old house had its original roof on it and is surrounded by new, million dollar plus homes, and so we went from being "that house" to "look at THAT house so cute omg!" Again, I can't say enough good things about these folks and I'm still pinching myself that I have a beautiful roof and ZERO headaches about the entire process thanks to them.
      Bobby did an outstanding job helping me with my new tile roof. From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, and made the whole process easy. He's hands down the best salesman I've dealt with-his communication was excellent and he kept me updated every step of the way. Couldn't be happier with the service and highly recommend asking for Bobby if you're looking at getting a roof!
      The company I work for hired Chapel Hill Roofing and we had a great experience. Their team was professional, easy to work with, and made the whole process smooth from start to finish. We truly appreciate their reliability and would definitely recommend them.
      Let me start by saying I have never felt compelled to write a google review. Having said that I have worked with dozens of contractors over the years and my experience with the Chapel Hill Roofing team and Bill Demersky was the best experience ever. I contacted them 3 years ago to repair a leak on my 20+ year old tile roof on Marco. They did a great job on the repair but I was most impressed that Bill drove 7 hours round trip to a tile boneyard to match tile on a repair that was a less that $3000. Had another leak in a different spot this fall and decided to replace the roof. Bill gave me all the options on materials, worked with my design firm and we decided to go with the Worthouse metal tile. It turned out great but what was most important was the way Chapel Hill Roofing managed the job. We live in Ohio so doing a remote project is always a bit tricky. The communication from Chapel Hill Roofing is exemplary. Status updates we on time and they do a great job over communicating the step by step process. When on site they sent me multiple video updates daily of every step as well as real time calls from the roof while working. Everyone who worked at our house was professional, friendly, and communicative. Bill is always available on his cell by call or text. By far the best contractor I have ever worked with. I'm sure they are not the cheapest but you get what you pay for.
      Chapel Hill Roofing fixed another roofing company's shoddy work. Another roofing company had completed installing our roof from a hurricane claim. While it looked great but lasted 3 years before a preventable leak occurred. That other company took shortcuts. My front bedroom ceiling became wet. I called the original company who (after much encouragement) came out and said they fixed it. A few months later the leak was even worse. I had to again repair the ceiling and walls. I recently learned of Chapel Hill Roofing. When I called them, they came out and diagnosed the problem. They were reasonable with the price and took the extra effort to truly fix the situation. They were transparent and showed me the exact problem. They covered my roof right then to prevent further water intrusion and completed the repair within 2 days. No more leak. I recommend them with confidence. Great staff and great work.
      I never leave reviews. Ever. But Chapel Hill Roofing saved me. I have an older home and needed a new roof and new roof deck. The other company was cheap. They ended up leaving me with a real mess. Chapel Hill Roofing came in and fixed everything. It looks brand new. The crew is exceptional. The customer experience was phenomenal. I will never hire anyone for any work other than Chapel Hill Roofing.
      I was SO pleased dealing with Nancy Thompson at Chapel Hill Roofing!! She made the project so easy to deal with. The workmanship was wonderful and everyone was courteous. My new roof is perfect. Thank you for the wonderful job!!!
      I had a huge leak in my roof and Chapel Hill Roofing rushed out to patch the issue immediately, saving my home from what would have been tons of water damage. Afterwards I got quotes from numerous local companies for a new roof and Chapel Hill Roofing had competitive pricing and their people were great to work with so I went forward with them. It's been a year now and I didn't want to give them a review right away because I wanted to make sure the roof was good before giving them my seal of approval. Now I must say it's rained many times since I got my new roof and not a drop of water has entered my home. The roof looks great also. Would definitely recommend getting a new roof from Chapel Hill Roofing.
      I don't even know where to begin! From the very first phone call to the initial meeting and throughout the entire process, I can't say enough about how AMAZING Bobby Rodgers and the Chapel Hill Roofing Team were. The communication was outstanding - from our project manager who was up on the roof sending videos of the progress, to being included in a text chain with Derrick (the owner) and all parties involved right from the start. It gave us peace of mind knowing that if there was ever a question or concern, we could reach anyone immediately. From the tear-off, to completion, to the final clean-up - everything was absolutely TOP NOTCH. Thank you, Bobby Rodgers and Chapel Hill Roofing, for such a GREAT EXPERIENCE.
      Bobby and Chapel Hill Roofing were great to work with. Bobby in particular took a personal interest in our roofing project from start to finish. Final result awesome!
      5 stars to Chapel Hill Roofing! Everyone involved from sales with Bill Demersky, Nancy Thompson, the owner Sean Dunn, to the roofer and gutter installers, all were polite, professional and organized. Special shoutout for Tariq who project managed the roof installation and kept me informed with pictures and texts throughout the process. Cost was on par with 2 other estimates but with Chapel Hill Roofing, I felt relaxed and trusted the job would be done on time and as contracted. Job well done by professionals! Thank you!
      It wasn't a big job or huge opportunity, but Chapel Hill Roofing came right over to make repairs to my roof when I was in need. The technician was on-time, friendly, reassuring and jumped right on the repairs. He did a very thorough inspection. I was very happy how quickly Chapel Hill Roofing took care of my roof repairs.
      Sales process was informative. Start of the project was timely. Staff personnel were very nice and helpful. Ta'Riq was a very good project supervisor. And, it looks great!
      Chapel Hill Roofing is an amazing company that not only provides exceptional quality in their work, but gives back to the community, St. Jude's Research and so much more! So here is my story I have to share. I have been a police officer for over 30 years and I have recently retired. I spent my last 5 years of service as a School Resource Officer in SWFL. A few months ago I reached out to the owner of Chapel Hill Roofing, Derric Stull, for a roof quote. I knew Derric and his family through the school that I was assigned to protect. My roof is over 20 years old and I needed to replace it. Without my knowledge, Derric, nominated me for a roof replacement program for First Responders with Owens Corning, who is also partnered with The Gary Sinise Foundation. I was selected as the first recipient for this newly launched program! My new roof was just completed and my family and I couldn't be happier! All of the Chapel Hill Roofing family is amazing and I would highly recommend them. A special thanks to the installation crew, Derric Stull, Sean Dunn, Nancy Thompson and Bill Demersky. You were all very kind and always professional throughout the entire process. Chapel Hill Roofing, are truly a blessing in my life!

      Metal Roofing FAQs for Chapel Hill Property Owners

      We understand that choosing metal roofing represents a significant investment, and you likely have questions about the process, materials, and benefits. Our experienced team has answered these common questions countless times for property owners throughout Chapel Hill and Durham County. We're here to provide the information you need to make confident decisions. If you have additional questions not addressed here, speak to our team anytime.

      Metal roofing offers several significant advantages over conventional asphalt shingle systems. Durability stands as perhaps the most compelling benefit, with metal roofs typically lasting decades longer than asphalt alternatives. Metal roofing resists wind damage, fire, impact from hail and debris, and doesn't deteriorate from thermal cycling the way asphalt shingles do. Energy efficiency represents another major advantage, as reflective metal surfaces reduce heat absorption and lower cooling costs during North Carolina's hot summers. Metal roofing also requires minimal maintenance compared to other roofing types, eliminating concerns about missing shingles, granule loss, and frequent repairs. Environmental benefits include recyclability at the end of service life and reduced waste compared to multiple asphalt shingle replacements over the same timeframe. While the initial investment for metal roofing exceeds asphalt shingles, the long-term value through extended lifespan, reduced maintenance, and energy savings makes it an economically sound choice for many property owners.
      Modern metal roofing installations incorporate proper underlayment and insulation that effectively dampens sound, making noise levels comparable to other roofing materials during rain events. The perception that metal roofs are excessively loud stems from experiences with old barn roofs or structures with minimal insulation and no sound-dampening underlayment. When installed correctly over solid decking with quality underlayment materials, metal roofing performs very well acoustically. Additionally, if your home has an attic space with insulation, this further reduces any sound transmission. Many homeowners with metal roofing report being pleasantly surprised at how quiet their homes remain during storms. Our installation process includes appropriate underlayment selection and proper attachment methods that contribute to sound control. If acoustic performance is a particular concern for your property, we can discuss additional sound-dampening options during your consultation to ensure you're completely comfortable with your new metal roofing system.
      Most residential and commercial structures built to modern building codes can easily support metal roofing without modification, as metal roofing systems are actually lighter than many traditional roofing materials. A typical metal roofing installation weighs significantly less per square foot than tile roofing and is comparable to or lighter than multiple layers of asphalt shingles. During our initial inspection, we evaluate your roof structure, including decking condition, rafter or truss spacing, and overall structural integrity. This assessment identifies any areas that might need reinforcement or repair before metal roofing installation proceeds. Older structures or buildings with existing structural concerns may require some modifications, though this is relatively uncommon. We also examine the condition of your existing roof decking, as solid, stable decking is essential for proper metal panel attachment. If we identify any structural concerns during inspection, we'll discuss options and recommendations before moving forward with your metal roofing project. Our goal is to ensure your new metal roof is properly supported and will perform reliably for decades.
      Metal roofing requires relatively minimal maintenance compared to other roofing systems, which is one reason property owners appreciate its long-term value. Periodic inspections help identify any issues early, and we typically recommend annual visual checks and more thorough professional inspections periodically. During these inspections, we look for loose fasteners, damaged panels, compromised flashing, debris accumulation in valleys or around penetrations, and proper function of gutters and drainage components. Keeping your metal roof clean from leaves, branches, and other debris helps prevent moisture retention and ensures proper water drainage. In wooded areas, trimming overhanging branches prevents scratching and reduces debris accumulation. Touch-up paint may occasionally be needed if scratches or abrasions expose bare metal, preventing potential corrosion. Fasteners may need periodic inspection and tightening, though this is typically minimal with quality installation. Compared to asphalt shingle roofs that require frequent repairs for missing or damaged shingles, metal roofing maintenance demands are considerably lighter. Our team can provide a maintenance schedule tailored to your specific metal roofing system and property conditions.
      In many situations, metal roofing can be installed over existing asphalt shingle roofs, though this approach depends on several factors including current roof condition, local building codes, and the number of existing shingle layers. Installing metal roofing over shingles can reduce project costs by eliminating tear-off and disposal expenses while providing additional insulation benefits. However, this approach is only appropriate when the existing roof deck is in good condition, there's only one layer of existing shingles, and the roof surface is relatively flat without significant irregularities. We conduct thorough inspections to determine whether installing metal roofing over existing shingles makes sense for your specific situation. If the existing roof has moisture damage, soft spots in the decking, or structural concerns, complete removal becomes necessary to address these issues before metal roofing installation. Local building codes in Durham County may also influence this decision, as some jurisdictions have specific requirements regarding roof layers and installation methods. Our team provides honest recommendations based on your roof's condition and your long-term goals, ensuring you receive an installation that performs properly and delivers the durability metal roofing is known for.
      Metal roofing encompasses a variety of materials, profiles, and styles to suit different architectural preferences and performance requirements. Standing seam metal roofing features vertical panels with raised seams that interlock, creating clean lines and excellent weather resistance. This style works particularly well on contemporary and modern architecture while providing superior protection against wind-driven rain. Corrugated metal roofing offers a more traditional appearance with its wavy profile, popular for agricultural buildings and certain residential applications. Metal shingle or tile profiles replicate the appearance of traditional materials while delivering metal's durability and performance benefits. Material options include steel, aluminum, copper, and zinc, each offering different characteristics regarding weight, corrosion resistance, and appearance. Steel roofing typically comes with protective coatings and is available in numerous colors, providing durability at moderate cost. Aluminum offers excellent corrosion resistance, making it ideal for coastal areas, though it's more susceptible to denting than steel. Copper develops a distinctive patina over time and delivers exceptional longevity, though at premium cost. During consultation, we discuss the materials and styles that best suit your property's architecture, your aesthetic preferences, and your performance requirements, helping you select the metal roofing system that aligns with your goals.
