Quality roofs for Waxhaw homeowners who care how the work is done. CertainTeed ShingleMaster installation, warranties in writing, and a family-owned team that answers the phone years after the job is finished.
Free inspection. No obligation. No pressure sales.
Most people looking for roofing in Waxhaw NC are not in an emergency. They have a roof somewhere in its late teens, they have noticed the granules in the gutters, and they would rather replace it on their own schedule than wait for a leak to make the decision for them. That is the homeowner we built this company around.
We work with homeowners in Waxhaw, Wesley Chapel, Marvin, Weddington, and Stallings. We know the housing stock here: the older homes off Providence Road, the large steep-pitched builds in Marvin and Weddington, and the newer subdivisions still filling in around downtown Waxhaw. Roof size, pitch, and complexity vary enormously across those neighborhoods, and the estimate should reflect that rather than a per-square guess.
Top Flight Contracting is a family-owned exterior contractor based in the Charlotte metro. We are a CertainTeed ShingleMaster, BBB A- accredited, and trusted by 25+ Google reviewers. When your neighbor asks who did your roof, you have a name and a number that still works years from now.
Two roofs can use the same shingle and the same underlayment and still be twenty years apart in service life. The difference is almost always in the parts you never see.
CertainTeed architectural shingles call for six nails per shingle, driven flush in the nail zone. We have pulled up Waxhaw roofs fastened with four nails, or over-driven so the head cut through the mat. Those roofs do not fail in a storm because the shingle was weak. They fail because the shingle was never properly attached.
Once the old roof comes off we walk the deck and replace what is soft, delaminated, or rotted before anything new goes down. Covering bad decking is the fastest way to make a new roof look wavy within two summers.
Carolina attics run brutally hot, and heat trapped under the deck cooks shingles from below and shortens their life. We check intake and exhaust balance on every inspection, attic included, because a correctly ventilated roof simply lasts longer than the same roof without it.
Most leaks we chase are not in the middle of a shingle field. They are at chimneys, valleys, sidewalls, and vent boots. We replace pipe boots and reflash rather than caulking over old metal and calling it done.
Union County sits in an active corridor for hail and severe thunderstorm wind, and Waxhaw catches its share. On the afternoon of July 12, 2026, a severe thunderstorm crossed the county with warned wind gusts near 60 mph and quarter-size hail through Waxhaw, Marvin, Weddington, and Wesley Chapel. We wrote up what that storm did and how to check your own roof in our guide to the July 12 hail and wind storm across Waxhaw and Union County.
Quarter-size hail sits right at the threshold where asphalt shingles start taking real damage. It rarely punches through. It bruises the mat and crushes the granule surface, and the roof looks completely normal from the driveway. Months later those bruises shed granules, crack, and let water in. Dented gutters and vent caps are the tell, which is why we photograph soft metal first.
Wind works on edges. It lifts and creases tabs along rakes and ridges, and anywhere the seal strip had already aged. A creased shingle often lies back down looking fine while the seal underneath is broken, so the next storm takes it further. Missing shingles are obvious. Broken seals are the ones that get missed.
A real inspection, not a sales call. We walk the roof when it is safe, photograph every impact and crease we find, check the attic, and hand you a written report. If the roof came through fine, we tell you that and you keep the photos as a baseline. We do not manufacture damage and we do not push anyone toward a claim that the evidence does not support.
Plenty of Waxhaw storm work never involves insurance at all, and when it does, the process confuses people more than it should. We are roofers, not insurance advisors, and we do not interpret policies or predict what any carrier will decide. What we can do is document the roof thoroughly and be there when the adjuster inspects. If you want to understand the mechanics first, we put together a plain-language explainer on how roof insurance claims work in North Carolina, covering deductibles, adjuster visits, and your right to choose your own contractor.
Full tear-off and replacement using CertainTeed shingles, with decking repaired and ventilation corrected before the new roof goes on. As a CertainTeed ShingleMaster we offer extended manufacturer warranties most Waxhaw contractors cannot access. Most replacements finish in one to two days.
Targeted repair for leaks, missing shingles, failed vent boots, and damaged flashing. We will tell you honestly when a repair is the right call and when it is money spent on a roof that needs replacing. We do not sell repairs we expect to fail.
Free hail and wind damage inspection with a written photo report. We document impacts, creased tabs, and dented soft metal the way adjusters expect to see it, then give you a straight read on what we found.
Roofs are not the only thing storms and time work on. We are a James Hardie Alliance Contractor and handle fiber cement and vinyl siding across the same service area. See our siding services for details.
Manufacturer coverage. CertainTeed backs the shingles. Our CertainTeed ShingleMaster credential lets us offer extended coverage that most roofing companies in Waxhaw are not eligible to put on the table.
Workmanship coverage. We back our own installation. A shingle warranty does not help you if the failure came from how the roof was put on, which is why both documents matter.
Someone to call. A warranty is only worth the company standing behind it. We are family-owned and based in the Charlotte metro, not passing through after a storm. Full terms are on our warranty and guarantees page.

A typical Waxhaw roof replacement runs $9,000 to $22,000 depending on square footage, pitch, shingle grade, and what we find under the old roof. The larger homes in Marvin, Weddington, and the newer Waxhaw subdivisions sit at the higher end, and complex rooflines with multiple gables and valleys cost more to do correctly. We give you a free written estimate with itemized pricing so you can see exactly what drives the number.
Two separate warranties. The manufacturer warranty covers the shingles themselves, and as a CertainTeed ShingleMaster we can offer extended coverage that most roofing companies in Waxhaw cannot access. The workmanship warranty covers our installation. Ask any contractor to show you both in writing before you sign, because a strong shingle warranty means very little if the roof was nailed on wrong.
Yes. Roof storm damage in Waxhaw NC is a large part of what we do, including wind damage roof repair and hail damage roof repair. Union County took a severe thunderstorm on July 12, 2026 with warned wind gusts near 60 mph and quarter-size hail through Waxhaw, Marvin, Weddington, and Wesley Chapel. We inspect at no cost, photograph everything we find, and give you a straight answer about whether the damage warrants a repair, a replacement, or nothing at all.
Usually you cannot tell from the ground, which is the whole problem. Quarter-size hail bruises the shingle mat without breaking the surface, and 60 mph wind can crease a shingle tab and break its seal while the shingle lies back down looking normal. The ground-level clues worth checking are dented gutters and metal vent caps, granules piling up at your downspouts, and shingle pieces in the yard. Two or more of those and the roof deserves a real look.
We work with homeowners in Waxhaw, Wesley Chapel, Marvin, Weddington, and Stallings, plus the rest of Union County and the wider Charlotte metro. We are family-owned and Charlotte-based, so we are here for warranty questions in year five and year fifteen, not just on the day of the sale.
Free, with a written photo report and a straight answer. Whether you are planning a replacement or checking after a storm.
