Roofing in Gastonia, NC: repair or replacement
Campbells Precision Roofing comes to Gastonia, NC from 7730 Campground Rd, Denver, NC 28037. The choice is the same one we make on every roof: a repair that should hold, or a full tear-off when it will not. New shingles go on the deck, not over a worn-out layer. The inspection is free. Call or text (704) 280-5996. We are open Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
Why Gastonia homeowners call us
Gastonia is in Gaston County. The U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey 2024 reports a median year built of 1978 for Gastonia city, margin of error ±2 years. That is a picture of the houses. It is not the age of the shingles. We look at what is on the roof today.
We are a GAF Master Elite contractor and a member of GAF President’s Club, GAF contractor ID 1114013. NC license #101889. BBB A+ since 2016. GAF is the shingle line we lead with. Designer profiles are installed as a Brava Authorized Contractor. Metal roofing is MRS. Skylights specified on the job are VELUX. The visit can end with “do nothing.”
Roof replacement in Gastonia
Replacement means the existing roof comes off. We tear off to the deck, replace sheathing that will not hold a fastener or that has gone soft, and build the roof back as a GAF system: underlayment, flashing at walls, chimneys, and penetrations, and the shingles in that scope. Qualifying Master Elite installs can include an enhanced GAF warranty. You hear the scope and the cleanup plan before the tear-off is scheduled.
The wider notes are on roof repair and replacement. Roofs that should be metal are on metal roofing, and metal means MRS.
Roof repair
A Gastonia repair is for damage that is actually local: lifted tabs on one eave, a boot cracked at a vent, counterflashing that has left the mortar, or a tired valley beside fields that are still sound. If the slopes around that spot are at the end of their life, a neat patch is the wrong product. We would rather replace the roof once than sell a repair we do not believe in.
Hail in Gaston County
The hail report on this page is not in the city of Gastonia. NOAA event 1279166 is half-dollar hail, 1.25 inch, at Cherryville in Gaston County on June 26, 2025, at 4:16 PM EDT. Cherryville is the place named in that report. Do not read it as hail on every Gastonia street. A neighbor’s bruises do not prove yours, and a quiet afternoon does not prove the roof was spared.
Our storm damage inspections are free. You get photos and a repair, replace, or leave-it answer. If an opening is letting rain in, emergency tarping can cover it until you choose the permanent work. A tarp is temporary. It is not the roof.
Permits on a Gastonia roof
The building permit goes through Gaston County Building & Development Services. North Carolina G.S. 143-138(b5) does not require a permit for single-family work at or under the amount in that statute when the work meets current code, unless a listed trigger applies. Under that amount, the county still requires a residential permit if the job includes structural, electrical, mechanical, or plumbing work. Inside Gastonia city limits, zoning is the city and the building permit is the county.
Gutters and RainDrop guards
Gutters are how water is supposed to leave the house, and they are separate from the shingles. We install, repair, and clean them on their own. RainDrop gutter guards are optional. They are not included with the roof, and they appear on the estimate only if you ask for them. See gutters.
How a Gastonia job moves
- Call, text, or use the contact page. (704) 280-5996.
- We get on the roof, check the gutters, and photograph what we find.
- The report is a choice: repair, full tear-off, or no work yet.
- We do not book a replacement while you still think you are buying a repair.
- Install day is the scope on the estimate, then cleanup. Debris leaves with the crew.
The Denver shop, not a storm trailer
Gastonia is a drive from Denver, not a different business. The address stays 7730 Campground Rd, Denver, NC 28037, on our Denver, NC page. Gaston County is already part of the territory we cover from that shop.
Questions Gastonia homeowners ask
Do you work in the city and the county?
Yes. Campbells Precision Roofing takes Gastonia roofs and other Gaston County homes from the Denver shop. Call or text (704) 280-5996, Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
Will you lay new shingles over the old ones?
No. Every replacement is a full tear-off to the deck. A second shingle layer is not something we install.
Where does the permit go?
Gaston County Building & Development Services issues the building permit. Inside city limits, zoning stays with the city. See the permit section above for G.S. 143-138(b5) and for structural, electrical, mechanical, or plumbing work.
Was that June 2025 hail in Gastonia?
No. The report is Cherryville, Gaston County: half-dollar hail, 1.25 inch, June 26, 2025, 4:16 PM EDT, NOAA event 1279166. We do not move that pin onto Gastonia.
Which products do you install?
GAF first. We are GAF Master Elite. Designer work is as a Brava Authorized Contractor. Metal is MRS. Skylights are VELUX. RainDrop gutter guards are optional and are not included unless the estimate says so.
