Roof Repair
Roof Repair
A lot of times, roofing contractors will mislead homeowners into thinking their roof system is in worse condition than it actually is. In doing so, they fail to offer roof repairs, or they over-price them such that the homeowner is misled into buying an entirely new roof. They do this for a few reasons:
- They do not have an in-house repair crew to handle small repairs for homeowners. Due to the majority of subcontracted crews being paid by the volume of the job based on the number of squares that roof has, a lot of subcontractors won’t do repairs as it is not worth the time for the price the roofing contractors want to pay.
- They would rather sell a higher revenue job for the sake of rebate money, additional profit, and the additional commissions involved.
- They are not fully educated on how to properly repair the roof, and without in-house employed roof repair specialists, they are not confident in fixing the issues.
We approach roof repairs in a completely different manner. With our expertise, precision, and attention to diagnosing the true issue of the roof leak, we are 100% confident in performing repairs. If a repair is what best serves that homeowner, at that time, for their budget, then that is absolutely what we are going to present. Not only do we advise you throughout the process, we perform a thorough 75-point inspection, with photo and video, and present the findings. After presenting the findings, we offer different solutions to fix the issues, and a repair is almost always an option.
If we can warranty it, we’ll repair it! We will never want to repair something, charge a price for it, and then have to come back to fix it again. If we are not 110% confident that the repair we offer will truly fix the roof problem, then it will never be presented as a viable option.
Our motto goes like this, “Treat the homeowners the exact way you would want a contractor to treat your mother, father, brother, sister, daughter, son, etc.” This means, if a repair can be done, and actually fix the issues, then we would be more than happy to perform that roof repair with the same level of precision that we would a brand new roof.
The average roof repair can cost anywhere between $300 – $4,200. This depends on the level of difficulty, material, and labor required to properly fix the issue. Other times, during our inspection, we will quickly seal around any openings, free of charge. At the same time, we will present our findings to you and educate you throughout the process regarding warranty, longevity of that repair, and if a repair is even best for you for your situation. If your roof repair is going to cost thousands, and your roof is at the end of its lifespan, a repair will most likely not be the best investment for you.
We are your local Charleston roof repair company for that reason. After performing our initial inspection, we will put the ball in your court and walk you through all the possible options to fix the issue you called us out for.

FAQs
What Locations Do We Serve and Services We Provide?
Transform Charleston provides roofing, siding, gutter windows, and custom home exterior services in Mount Pleasant, Charleston, Daniel Island, Isle of Palms, Sullivan's Island, I'On, Mount Pleasant, and James Island.
Although these are the 7 primary locations we serve, we do make exceptions for referrals. If somebody is referred to us, that means the world, and therefore, we will do everything it takes to serve that customer as well.
Although window services are provided, we prefer to only do window installations and replacements when we are performing a siding replacement as that is the optimal time to do so in order to properly flash the siding.
Our main passion is to completely transform home exteriors, so custom home exterior projects are our favorite! These projects typically involve at least 3+ of our services combined on a single structure.
Why Should You Let Us Assist You with Your Storm Damage Insurance Claims?
In Charleston, roofing and siding storm damage is inevitable from wind and hail. When choosing a contractor to assist you in fixing your storm damage and helping with insurance claims, it is crucial that you choose a competent contractor who is thoroughly versed in handling insurance claims. With a ton of "roofing contractors" being busted for insurance fraud, it is all the more important to diligently choose the contractor you feel most comfortable with.
If a contractor has little to no experience, or misleads you into believing they are "insurance experts," they can detrimentally ruin your chance at getting a proper restoration of the damages. For instance, if the claim is filed incorrectly from the beginning, it can be detrimental.
If the contractor doesn't document the damages properly, with adequate building code documentation and manufacturer specifications, it can negatively impact the final decision from the insurance carriers.
If a contractor just wants to selfishly hurry up and collect a check, which most do, they will get the claim approved just enough to make the money they desire, but leave you with some of the damages not completely repaired. Yes, you may get the roof repaired or replaced, but what if your siding, gutters, and interior needed to be repaired as well? If the contractor is only a "roofing" contractor, they most likely won't want to do other repairs as they are not equipped with the infrastructure to handle them.
It is crucial to hire a roofing restoration and siding restoration contractor who knows how to properly document, assist, effectively communicate with insurance carriers, and is in the business to serve and not take.

What Makes Transform Charleston Unique?
Every single day of the work week, the entire Transform Charleston team dedicates 2 hours a day to industry-specific training regarding installation practices, product knowledge, and best consultative practices to best serve homeowners.
We understand that if we are not true experts regarding this industry, inevitably, by default, we will not be able to truly serve each homeowner in their own unique way. Every homeowner is in a unique situation, with unique financial goals, and varying aspirations for their home. If we take a "one size fits all" approach to our consulting, we are no longer consultants, but rather, salespeople like every single one of our competitors.
The thought of being like everybody else is actually what motivates us to self-develop every single day. Self-development, with the passion to transform one another's lives within our culture, is what truly makes us unique. By cultivating a culture of selflessness, passion, and servitude, we treat homeowners the exact same way we would want somebody to treat our family in their roofing, siding, gutter, and custom home exterior needs.
Our core values consist of stewardship, gratitude, service, and self-development. We believe we are blessed with the gifts that we have been given, recognizing that from a heart of gratitude, we can then best serve our community and neighbors both within the business as well as outside by helping non-profits through generosity. Self-development then inevitably occurs, because without it, we lose the heart of servitude, and life then becomes about us. The moment life becomes solely about us, we lose true fulfillment.
Collectively, as a team, we believe true fulfillment comes from serving and helping one another TRANSFORM into our individual full potential. It's the small, almost seemingly insignificant disciplines that can actually have the most profound impacts. It's "The Butterfly Effect." This is why "Transforming Lives, Elevating Exteriors" is our company motto.
Precision, passion, and expertise is what we are all about!
How Can We Justify Offering Lifetime Workmanship Warranties?
Able to offer lifetime warranties because we are true experts regarding installation as well as building code and manufacturer specifications. We are obsessed with developing and learning through daily training. We believe if we do not improve daily, we will not be fit to best serve our homeowners. With this approach, we are 100% confident that all roofs will be completed with near-perfect craftsmanship and precision.
Also, with a project manager and crew leader on site during our roofing and siding projects, we meticulously watch our installation crews to ensure all installation specifications are being followed. This ensures that we do not miss anything during the installation process and gives us the ability and confidence to offer lifetime workmanship warranties.
An additional reason we can justify offering lifetime workmanship warranties is because we know asphalt shingle manufacturers, and other roofing manufacturers, are always looking for ways out of warranty claims. We believe in true, selfless, genuine service. We extend the lifetime workmanship warranties to give our homeowners additional peace of mind, knowing that when it comes to workmanship, Transform Charleston will ALWAYS deliver with precision.
You can directly see a contractor's confidence with their installation based on the length of the workmanship warranty that they are providing. If they are only offering less than a 15-year workmanship warranty, but other contractors are offering lifetime workmanship warranties, remember, this roofing and siding industry is the epitome of "You pay for what you get." Don't let contractors mislead you with their "manufacturer lifetime warranty" pitches. These are specifically only if the shingles or products prematurely fail due to manufacturing-related issues, not workmanship.
