Roofers in Swansboro: serving the friendly city by the sea

Trusted roofing services for Swansboro and the White Oak River area.

Swansboro is known as the "Friendly City by the Sea" for a reason. It is a beautiful place to live, with its historic downtown and stunning views of the Intracoastal Waterway. However, living this close to the water means your home is constantly battling the elements. Salt spray accelerates corrosion, and coastal winds test the limits of your shingles every storm season. Smith Roofing and Restoration provides roofing services tailored to meet these specific challenges.

We are a locally owned company with five years of experience protecting homes in Onslow and Carteret counties. We understand that a roof in Swansboro needs to do more than just shed water; it needs to withstand high wind uplift and resist rust. Whether you own a historic home near the waterfront or a newer construction inland, we bring the same level of construction expertise and honest communication to every project.

Roof replacements

When your roof reaches the end of its lifespan, you need a replacement that offers long term peace of mind. We specialize in installing high wind rated roofing systems designed for coastal exposure.

We strip the old roofing down to the bare wood deck. In our humid environment, this is the only way to catch hidden rot or delaminated plywood. We replace any damaged decking before installing a high performance waterproof underlayment. We offer architectural shingles that resist algae streaks and metal roofing options that provide superior durability against salt air.

Roof repairs

You do not always need a new roof. Sometimes a targeted repair is all it takes to stop a leak and extend the life of your current system. If you see water spots on your ceiling or loose shingles in your yard, call us for an inspection.

We are skilled at tracking down difficult leaks. We check the areas most vulnerable to salt damage, such as metal flashing around chimneys and walls. We also inspect pipe boots and vents which often crack from sun exposure. We provide clear, honest assessments and affordable repairs to keep your home dry.

Storm damage restoration

Swansboro residents know the drill when hurricane season arrives. When a storm leaves your home damaged, you need a contractor who responds quickly and knows how to handle the restoration process. We offer full service storm damage repair.

We provide emergency tarping to secure your roof immediately after the wind dies down. Then we perform a comprehensive inspection to document every shingle that was lifted or bruised by hail. We gather the evidence your insurance adjuster needs to see to approve your claim. We handle the hard work so you can focus on your family.

Insurance claim assistance

Filing an insurance claim can be overwhelming. We have extensive experience working with insurance carriers to get claims approved for our clients. We know the local building codes and we know what your policy should cover.

We meet your adjuster at your property to ensure they see the full extent of the damage. We walk the roof with them and point out issues they might miss. We review their estimate to ensure it includes high quality materials and all necessary code upgrades. We are your advocate throughout the entire process.
