Short answer

Look for a Raleigh roofer that carries liability insurance and workers' compensation, works on both shingle and flat (low-slope) roofs, photographs every building, puts the scope in writing, and will recommend a repair when a repair is enough. Roof Revivers has served customers since 2012, is an Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractor and BBB A+ accredited, and runs a Raleigh branch at 1117 Corporation Pkwy, Suite 106, Raleigh, NC 27610, (919) 794-5754, Monday–Friday, 8 a.m.–4 p.m.

What to check before you hire a roofer for your properties

• Insurance on file. Ask for a certificate of liability insurance and proof of workers' compensation before anyone goes on a roof at your property. For larger jobs, check the NC Licensing Board for General Contractors.
• Shingle and flat-roof experience. Portfolios mix pitched shingle roofs with flat or low-slope sections over offices, retail, breezeways and additions. Ask which flat roof systems the contractor actually works on.
• Documentation by building. You need photos and condition notes for each roof so you can explain decisions to owners, boards and insurers.
• A written scope. The scope and estimate should be in writing before work is approved, so you can compare bids line by line.
• Honest repair-or-replace calls. A contractor that only quotes replacements makes capital planning harder. Ask what a repair would buy you and when replacement makes more sense.
• Resident and tenant coordination. Ask how the crew handles notices, parking, access and cleanup at occupied buildings.
• One point of contact. Leak calls across several properties go faster when one person knows your portfolio.

Flat and low-slope roofs

Flat roofs fail differently than shingle roofs. Water drains slowly, so small openings at seams, wall flashing, curbs and pipe penetrations turn into leaks, and the stain inside is often far from the actual opening. Clogged drains and scuppers hold water against the membrane. EPDM rubber is the flat roof system Roof Revivers works on, and many flat roof leaks are repairable when the rest of the membrane is still sound. See flat roof repair in Raleigh and flat roofing in Raleigh.

Leak calls, storms and insurance documentation

When a tenant reports a leak, we find where the water is actually getting in and, when needed, put a temporary tarp on until the permanent repair is done. See storm tarping and leak repair and roof leak repair in Raleigh.

After hail or wind, we inspect and document damage building by building and can meet with any insurance adjuster on site. Your policy and adjuster decide what is covered. See storm damage repair, roof insurance claims help and hurricane season roof prep.

Planning inspections and replacements

Many managers schedule roof inspections in spring and fall and after any major storm, so small problems at flashing, boots and gutters are caught before they reach a unit. When roofs are near the end of their useful life, a building-by-building condition report helps you plan replacements in phases instead of all at once. For HOA and townhome communities, see HOA and townhome roofing; for the decision itself, see repair or replace in Raleigh.

Roof Revivers is an Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractor and BBB A+ accredited. On qualifying replacements we can offer the Owens Corning Platinum warranty, Owens Corning-backed, with 25 years of non-prorated coverage. We also handle gutters, siding and skylights.

What shapes your cost

Every property is priced on its own roofs: size, pitch, roof type (shingle or flat), access, how many penetrations and curbs there are, the condition of the decking underneath, and how many buildings are in the scope. We start with a free inspection and a written estimate, so you see the real number before any work starts. Book a free inspection.
