When to replace a High Point roof
High Point’s residential mix spans more than 100 years of construction. The historic downtown area and Emerywood have homes built in the 1920s-1950s with multiple roof generations layered over the years. Greenway, Deep River, and the developments off Eastchester and Skeet Club are dominated by 1990s and 2000s subdivision builds that are now reaching first-replacement age. When one house in those subdivisions needs a roof, the rest of the cul-de-sac usually does too.
If you live in one of these maturing High Point neighborhoods and you’ve never replaced the roof, you’re in the warning track. We’re replacing a lot of these right now, often back-to-back on the same street.
High Point-specific considerations
- Furniture Market timing for commercial. For commercial customers near the Furniture Market exhibition spaces, we coordinate work schedules around Market events. For residential, the city is generally open year-round.
- Older Emerywood homes. Like Fisher Park in Greensboro and Buena Vista in Winston-Salem, the older High Point neighborhoods often have multiple brick chimneys with original lead flashing that needs full replacement. Custom chimney caps and rebuilt step flashing are common components of these projects.
- Tree canopy variation. Central High Point and Emerywood have heavy canopy; newer subdivisions are more open. We recommend appropriate shingle types — algae-resistant for shaded areas, higher wind-rated for exposed.
- HOA approval common in the newer developments. We can quote to spec.
Materials for High Point homes
Most High Point homeowners install architectural asphalt shingles — Owens Corning Duration leads. For the larger historic homes in Emerywood, designer shingles (Berkshire, Grand Sequoia) are appropriate scale. Some of the newer custom homes are choosing standing seam metal for the modern farmhouse aesthetic.
