Metal Roofing - Cabarrus County

Metal Roofing in Concord, NC

Concord splits between a historic downtown of mill-era homes along Union Street and big 2000s subdivisions out toward Highway 49 and Concord Mills. The old homes have steep gables and tin porch roofs that are often original; the subdivisions are hitting their first re-roof with 30-year shingles that didn't make 20.

Mill Town and Boom Town

Concord is two housing markets at once. The historic core - Union Street South, North Union, the blocks around the courthouse and the old Cannon and Gibson mill villages - is 1880s-to-1940s homes with steep gables, deep porches and a lot of original metal on those porches, painted and repainted for a century. Out toward Highway 49, Poplar Tent Road, Highway 3 and Concord Mills, it is 1998-to-2015 subdivisions - Christenbury, Moss Creek, Highland Creek's Cabarrus side, Skybrook North - built with 30-year shingles that are coming off at 18 in this heat. The first market is coating and repair work with the occasional full conversion; the second is straight standing seam installs on simple, long rooflines.

Historic Union Street

The North Union Street Historic District and the South Union area sit under Concord's historic preservation ordinance, and a visible roof change on a contributing structure needs review. Because so many of these houses had standing-seam terne or 5V roofs originally, a matching 5V crimp or a narrow-rib standing seam in a Galvalume plus or grey finish is usually the easy approval. We have the profiles that read as period-correct and we bring samples to the meeting.

Hail and Insurance

Cabarrus County has taken the same storm tracks as northern Mecklenburg, and a lot of the roofs in the Highway 49 corridor are insurance-driven replacements. The carrier pays for shingles; the homeowner pays the difference for metal, and the Class 4 impact rating on a 24-gauge panel or a steel metal shingle earns a premium discount from many carriers afterwards. We write the quote so the adjuster's figure and the upgrade are separate.

Permits, ZIPs and Drive Time

Cabarrus County Construction Standards issues re-roof permits for a covering change; Concord itself inspects inside city limits. ZIPs 28025 and 28027. About 30 minutes from uptown Charlotte on I-85 to exits 49 through 58, or Highway 29 and Poplar Tent Road when I-85 is stopped at the Speedway. Church Street, Branchview Drive, George Liles Parkway, Concord Parkway and the Highway 3 corridor toward Kannapolis are the cross streets. A stone-coated or screw replacement quote anywhere in Concord is a same-week visit.

Can you match the old tin roof on my Concord porch?
Usually with a 5V crimp or a standing seam in a Galvalume plus finish, which reads as the original terne or galvanized without the rust. The main roof can be a different system.
