Your roof is the first line of defense against North Carolina’s weather — from hot summer sun to heavy rains and winter storms. But no roof lasts forever. Knowing when it’s time for repair or replacement can save you thousands of dollars and protect your home from costly damage.
At Payne Construction Group, LLC, we’ve helped homeowners across Davidson County with roofing, renovations, and full custom builds. Here’s what you should know about your roof in 2025.
1. Average Roof Lifespan in NC
- Asphalt shingles: 20–25 years
- Metal roofing: 40–60 years
- Flat roofs: 15–20 years
➡ If your roof is nearing the end of its lifespan, regular inspections are critical.
2. Signs You May Need a New Roof
- Missing or curling shingles
- Leaks or water stains inside your home
- Granules in gutters (shingle breakdown)
- Sagging rooflines
- Storm damage (hail, wind, fallen limbs)
Even small problems can quickly turn into major issues if ignored.
3. Roofing Codes in North Carolina
Davidson County follows the NC Residential Building Code, which requires proper underlayment, flashing, and slope compliance. Unfortunately, many “quick-fix” roofers skip steps, which can cause failed inspections or leaks later.
👉 At Payne Construction Group, we install roofs the right way, the first time — always up to code.
4. Repair vs. Replacement
- Repair may be best for minor storm damage or a small leak.
- Replacement is smarter if your roof is older, has widespread problems, or multiple leaks.
Our team provides honest inspections so you never replace a roof before it’s necessary.
