How to judge roofing work

A roof is the one system that protects every other part of a building, which is why the way a contractor inspects matters more than the brochure. A thorough look covers flashing, penetrations, valleys and decking — not just the field of shingles — because that is where water actually finds its way in.

Roof lifespan depends more on installation quality and attic ventilation than on the material alone. Poor ventilation cooks shingles from underneath, and incorrect nailing patterns void many manufacturer warranties. The useful questions to ask any roofer are about process and sequence, not only price.

Typical lifespan ranges by roofing material (industry averages; actual life depends on climate, ventilation and installation quality)
MaterialTypical lifespanNotes
Asphalt shingle15–30 yearsMost common; ventilation strongly affects service life
Metal40–70 yearsStanding seam generally outlasts exposed-fastener panels
Clay or concrete tile50–100 yearsUnderlayment usually needs renewal sooner than the tile
Slate75–150 yearsWeight requires adequate framing capacity
Single-ply membrane (flat)20–30 yearsSeams and terminations are the usual failure points

What customers say

Shirley Wilcox I recently worked with H & S Roofing, and I can honestly say they set the standard for what a top tier roofing company should be. From the very first call to the final inspection, the entire experience was smooth, professional, and stress free. The team showed up right on time, explained everything clearly, and treated my home with the utmost care. Their crew worked efficiently, kept the work site spotless, and delivered craftsmanship that truly stands out. It’s rare these days to find a company that takes pride in its work, but H & S Roofing absolutely does. What impressed me most was their honesty— no surprises, just straightforward communication and quality work. They made sure I understood all my options and helped me choose what was best for my home, not what was most expensive. If you’re in the Charlotte area and need roofing work done—repairs, replacement, or even an inspection—don’t look anywhere else. H & S Roofing is reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely cares about their customers

I recently had H&S Roofing & Gutter Company handle a full roof replacement and gutter installation on my home in Charlotte, and I couldn't be happier with the entire experience! They've been in business since 1939, and it really shows in their professionalism and attention to detail. The team was punctual, communicative, and incredibly thorough—from the initial quote to the final cleanup. The workmanship is top-notch, everything was done exactly as promised, and they even took great care of our landscaping during the job. Affordable, licensed, insured, and truly reliable. I highly recommend H&S to anyone in the Charlotte area needing roofing or gutter work—you won't find better!
