We had such a great experience with Nate and his crew! Communication was great and the job was complete in one day. We did the Fortified Roof program. Nate took the time to go through all the details with me and explained each one. The crew was professional and polite and cleaned up the site very well. Thank you Harbor Roofing!

Had Harbor Roofing to replace tile roof with metal after Hurricane Matthew. Could not have been more pleased with the result! Nate was extremely professional and measured everything, to make sure the roof was perfect! Since then, he has cleaned our flat roof several times and is extremely quick in responding to our requests. Would highly recommend Nate Thompson and Harbor Roofing if a roof is needed. Susan Stewart

Had Harbor Roofing out to replace my roof and upgrade it to IBHS Fortified with a full ice & water shield under the shingles. Their crew worked fast and completed my large / steep roof in 2 days. NCIUA insurance approved the work and sent the rebate check a few weeks later.

We have had Nate and his team replace our roof back in 2020 and it looks as great today as it did when installed. We were so impressed with their work, we had them do a metal roof on our barn in 2023. Our annual inspection shows everything is as it should be. We have our third project scheduled with Roger to put shingles on our “country house” and look forward to another successful installation. We appreciate your hard work and dedication!

Harbor Roofing is a superior company to work with. The quality and detailing of their work is superior. I highly recommend Harbor Roofing. I would only use them for installation and any necessary repairs, such as hurricane or storm damage.

I highly recommend this business. The job involved 4 townhouses to be re-roofed and two free standing garages. Nate explained the shingle quality, hand nailing vs air nailing, vent replacement, plywood repairs etc. The team was punctual and work a day and half. A follow up was completed with a punch list. Our neighborhood was amazed with the completion of the job and we are highly satisfied.

Harbor Roofing and Siding was great to work with. We needed new siding and a new roof so it was nice to be able to work with just one company. Nate was very responsive and offered up some great ideas for our roof to fix our issues and give our house a great new look. Plus the cost for it all was less than than all the other quotes I received. We are very pleased with the work they did and love the new look of our house!

Tile roofing is an excellent option for many residences. Tile is very durable and looks great. If you are curious whether it’s right for you, keep reading!

Tile is Long Lasting

We have discussed this a couple of times before that tile was very durable. But we did not go into detail how durable tile roofing can be. Tile is notorious for being able to last for almost a century without the need for replacement. That’s because tile is made up of slate, concrete, or clay that degrades very gradually when utilized as roofing material.

Tile is Damage Resistant

There’s a reason that tile lasts as long as it does. Tile roofing is very durable and easily resists damage which might otherwise lead a roof to crumble. Materials such as flying items in a hurricane, baseball-sized hailstones and blunt impacts from falling tools won’t have the ability to break tile.

Weather Won’t Affect Tile

Roofing companies, most of the time, suggest roofs based on the climate in your area. Metal roofing is fantastic for warm climates, whereas shingles are best in cooler ones. But tile roofing excels wherever you’re located. Whether it is blisteringly hot or freezing cold, tile stays a strong option in terms of roofing material.

Tile Requires Little Maintenance

Because of tile roofing’s durability, it’s possible to expect that you will not be seeing many issues on the tile roof. If properly installed, tiles care for themselves and you’ll only have to keep them clean. Leaks are very rare because the material is thick and only breaks if something heavy strikes it.

Tile is Pest Proof

If there’s an issue with pesky creatures digging holes in the roof tile roofing is the solution. Rodents, mice, birds, and insects will find it very challenging to dig into a strong tile roof. That’s because of how they’re made of re-purposed clay which does not decay or rot over time. It’ll keep it solid and make it almost impossible to dig through.
