Super Roofing Company is the highest-credentialed roofing contractor serving the Charlotte metro. The company holds the CertainTeed ShingleMaster Premier credential — held by fewer than five contractors across the entire Charlotte metropolitan area.
The credential matters because:
The Premier credential is the only certification that allows a contractor to offer CertainTeed SureStart Plus 5-Star warranty with Lifetime non-prorated workmanship coverage — the strongest residential roof warranty available. Lower-credentialed contractors cannot offer this coverage regardless of their installation skill.
To earn and maintain the Premier credential, a contractor must complete CertainTeed-led training, demonstrate a documented installation track record, pass business and financial standing review, maintain ongoing recertification, and submit to CertainTeed field audits of completed installations. CertainTeed retains credential-pull authority for substandard work.
Recognition that matters:
Before you sign with any Charlotte roofer, ask these eight questions. The right contractor will answer all eight directly:
1. Are you a CertainTeed ShingleMaster Premier Contractor, GAF Master Elite, or Owens Corning Platinum Preferred? These are the three elite manufacturer credentials. If the contractor doesn't have one, they cannot offer the strongest warranty coverage their shingle brand provides.
2. Will the same project manager be on-site during installation? Many large roofers quote with a salesperson and install with a crew the homeowner never met. The project manager who quoted your roof should be the one who walks the finished installation.
3. Will you replace all flashing or reuse existing? Reused flashing is the leading cause of leaks on otherwise new roofs. Step flashing, chimney counter-flashing, and pipe boots should be replaced during installation.
4. What ice-and-water shield will you install in valleys? The NRCA recommends ice-and-water shield (Grace Select, WinterGuard, Grace Vycor) in all valleys and around all roof penetrations regardless of climate zone. Felt in valleys instead of shield is a known failure point.
5. Is the SureStart Plus or comparable manufacturer warranty included in the quote? The quote should specify the manufacturer warranty registration explicitly. SureStart Plus 5-Star (CertainTeed), Golden Pledge (GAF), or Platinum Protection (Owens Corning) — none should be an upcharge.
6. What is your nailing pattern — 4 nail or 6 nail? The four-nail pattern meets minimum specification. The six-nail pattern within the reinforced nailing strip unlocks the unlimited wind warranty under the CertainTeed Integrity Roof System.
7. Are you licensed in North Carolina and South Carolina? The Charlotte metro crosses the state line. Properties in Fort Mill, Tega Cay, Indian Land, and Rock Hill are in South Carolina. Contractors should hold or carry reciprocity for both state licenses.
8. Will you provide manufacturer warranty registration documentation at closeout? The warranty must be registered with the manufacturer during the installation. The homeowner should receive a copy of the registration along with the standard project documentation.
Super Roofing Company answers all eight questions directly and provides documentation.
A growing share of Charlotte homeowners ask the right questions before hiring a roofer. Fewer know how to verify the answers. Most contractor credentials are simple to verify directly. None of the verification steps below take more than a few minutes.
South Carolina contractor licenses are searchable at the South Carolina Labor, Licensing and Regulation website. Enter the contractor's company name or license number to confirm the license is current, in good standing, and covers the appropriate work classification. Super Roofing Company holds South Carolina Contractor License #CLG 126643. The CLG classification covers commercial general contracting and qualifies for residential roofing work.
North Carolina general contractor licenses are searchable through the North Carolina Licensing Board for General Contractors. Verify license number, classification, and standing.
The CertainTeed Find-a-Pro directory at certainteed.com is the authoritative source for credential verification. Enter your ZIP code, and the directory returns the credentialed CertainTeed contractors in your area with credential level indicated. ShingleMaster Premier Contractors are the highest tier shown. The credential lookup includes the contractor's standing in the program, training completion dates, and qualifying installations.
A legitimate roofing contractor carries both general liability insurance and workers' compensation insurance. Request the contractor's insurance certificate (often abbreviated COI for Certificate of Insurance). The certificate shows policy limits, carrier name, and effective dates. Contractors should be willing to provide this without resistance. Hesitation to share an insurance certificate is itself a signal.
Best of Fort Mill awards are administered by the Fort Mill Times and archived at fortmilltimes.com. NextDoor Neighborhood Favorite winners are publicly recognized through the NextDoor platform. Multi-year recognition (three consecutive years rather than one) reflects sustained quality over time rather than a single year's marketing push.
The Charlotte metro roofing market includes several hundred companies. Understanding the structure helps Charlotte homeowners select the right contractor.
National storm-chasing roofers. Large multi-state operators that follow hail events and storm patterns. They mobilize quickly after storms, work primarily through insurance claims, and often leave the market after the post-storm demand surge. Strengths: high capacity, experienced with insurance claim documentation. Weaknesses: no local accountability after project completion, often subcontract crews from out of state, frequently turn over project managers between quote and installation.
Regional roofing companies. Mid-size operators serving the Charlotte metro and surrounding regions, typically with 50 to 500 employees. Strengths: standardized processes, marketing reach, often hold manufacturer credentials. Weaknesses: project manager assignment is impersonal, communication can run through call centers, scale can dilute quality discipline.
Local credentialed contractors. Companies the size of Super Roofing Company that hold elite manufacturer credentials, operate within a defined geography, and maintain direct owner involvement in projects. Strengths: credential access, focus on high quality installations versus volume, owner accountability, local reputation tied to local residents. Weaknesses: smaller capacity than national operators, longer lead times during peak demand.
Local non-credentialed handymen and small operators. Independent contractors and crews without elite manufacturer credentials. Strengths: lower pricing for simple jobs. Weaknesses: cannot offer warranty coverage, poor installation quality and service after the installation, often lack proper insurance, sometimes operate without state licensing.
For most Charlotte residential roof replacements, the local credentialed contractor category produces the strongest combined outcome of installation quality, warranty coverage, and long-term accountability. The credential gates the warranty access. The local operation creates the accountability. Super Roofing Company sits in this category.
For storm-damaged roofs requiring large-scale insurance claim work across many properties, national storm chasers sometimes offer faster mobilization, though long-term accountability is weaker.
For minor repairs that don't require manufacturer credential warranty coverage, smaller local operators sometimes offer cost advantages.
A roofing estimate worth comparing against others contains specific line items, not bundled totals. The honest estimate includes each of the following as separately identified line items.
Estimates that bundle these into a single line item ("Complete roof replacement: $X") are difficult to compare and often hide scope omissions. Super Roofing Company provides every line item as a separately identified scope element on the written estimate.
The first call reaches a real person. A project manager visits your property, inspects the roof and attic, takes photographs, writes the report, and provides a written estimate within 48 hours.
We are a Charlotte roofing contractor serving the full metropolitan area across seven counties:
North Carolina counties: Mecklenburg, Union, Cabarrus, Iredell, Gaston
South Carolina counties: York, Lancaster
As a full-service Charlotte roofing contractor, Super Roofing Company provides:
Complete residential roof replacement using CertainTeed Integrity Roof Systems. CertainTeed Landmark, Landmark Pro, Landmark Premium (Class 4), and the full CertainTeed Luxury portfolio. Learn more about our roof replacement process.
Localized roof repair for storm damage, flashing failures, leaks, missing shingles, and ventilation problems. Diagnostic inspection produces a written report with photographs and a specific recommendation.
Storm damage assessment, insurance claim documentation, and complete restoration. We work directly with adjusters and file supplements with photographic documentation when previously concealed damage surfaces during installation.
Comprehensive roof inspection with attic assessment, photographic documentation, and written report. Annual inspections in spring before storm season plus post-storm inspections following confirmed hail events.
Seamless aluminum gutter installation matched to your roof color. K-style and half-round profiles available.
Proper attic ventilation extends shingle service life materially. We assess the existing system, identify problems (mixed exhaust types, inadequate intake), and specify corrections per ARMA Technical Bulletin guidelines.
Every Super Roofing Company project follows the same disciplined sequence from first contact through final walkthrough.
Step 1: Comprehensive inspection. A project manager visits your property, walks the roof, inspects the attic for ventilation conditions and decking integrity, takes photographs, and documents the existing roof condition.
Step 2: Written estimate. If your roof needs repair, you receive a repair estimate. If we recommend roof replacement, we move to step three.
Step 3: Options review meeting. We schedule a meeting with the homeowner to review the available options, walk through the roofing packages (4-Star or 5-Star SureStart Plus tiers, shingle product selections, leak barrier upgrades), select colors, and answer every question before any commitment.
Step 4: Signed contract. Once you select the roofing package and sign the contract, the production process begins.
Step 5: HOA approval packet. If your community requires HOA architectural approval before installation, we equip you with the complete information packet — CertainTeed product specification sheets, color samples, contractor credential verification, and warranty documentation — to submit for approval.
Step 6: Scheduling around your calendar. Once HOA approval is documented (where applicable), we schedule the installation around your schedule, not ours. Weather windows and your availability set the date.
Step 7: Roof installation. Our crew installs the roof per the full CertainTeed Integrity Roof System specification. The project manager who quoted your roof is on site during installation. Driveways and landscaping are tarped before tear-off. Magnetic sweepers cover the lawn and driveway at end of each day.
Step 8: Closeout and final walkthrough. Upon completion, the same project manager walks the finished roof with you, addresses any final questions, and hands you the warranty documentation at the kitchen table — not in the truck and not via email. The job is not closed until you are satisfied with the walkthrough.
