Roofing in Rock Hill, just across the state line
Rock Hill is South Carolina, not Mecklenburg County, but it's part of the same weather and the same commute, and its roofs face the same storms.
Rock Hill is in York County, South Carolina. North Carolina's licensing board and Mecklenburg's permit office don't cover it; work follows South Carolina's and the local office's rules.
Rock Hill had an estimated 72,937 residents and sits in York County, South Carolina, about twenty-five miles south of Uptown Charlotte. Its older neighborhoods near downtown and around Winthrop University have brick and frame houses from the early and middle twentieth century, many with hip roofs, wide porches and the occasional original metal porch roof. Newer subdivisions to the east and south look much like those around Charlotte.
Older Rock Hill homes need the careful flashing and decking work that comes with age. Hip roofs have more ridges and fewer gables, which means more ridge cap and fewer rake edges, and ridge caps are where wind usually starts lifting shingles. Newer homes need standard replacements and repairs.
Because Rock Hill is in South Carolina, permits come from the local office there, and the work follows South Carolina's rules rather than North Carolina's licensing board. We check the requirements for each address before scheduling.

Services for Rock Hill homes
Asked by Rock Hill homeowners
Do you really work in South Carolina?
Yes. Rock Hill and Fort Mill are part of our regular service area.
Is the permit process different in Rock Hill?
Yes. It's a South Carolina town in York County, so local permit rules apply instead of Mecklenburg's.
Do North Carolina licences apply in Rock Hill?
No. North Carolina's contractor licensing covers North Carolina. Work in South Carolina follows that state's requirements.
Can you fix wind damage on my hip roof?
Yes. Hip roofs tend to lose ridge caps first, and we replace them and check the rest of the roof.
