Charleston Roof Replacement replaces and repairs roofs in Folly Beach, SC (29439). On Folly Beach, a roof takes the full force of ocean wind and salt spray. Many homes are raised on pilings with nothing to block the wind, so materials and fastening matter more here than almost anywhere in the Charleston area.
Folly Beach is one of all the Charleston-area communities we serve. We also handle roof replacement in Sullivan's Island, roof replacement in Isle of Palms and roof replacement in Hanahan, so a single crew and the same standards cover your whole part of the Lowcountry.

Salt-ready materials
Close to the ocean we generally recommend aluminum metal panels or high-wind shingles with corrosion-resistant fasteners and flashing, because standard steel components corrode quickly in salt spray.
Wind and edges
Wind damage usually starts at roof edges and corners. Enhanced drip edge, starter strips and a sealed roof deck make the biggest difference.
Permits
We handle re-roofing permits with the City of Folly Beach.
