    Lawndale sits on the First Broad River in Cleveland County, in the North Carolina foothills. It is a small town. The 2020 census counted 570 people, and it is smaller now than it was in 1940. The town grew up in the late 1800s around the Cleveland Mills plant, and the houses were named for the green lawns where the mill workers lived. Many of those mill-village roofs are still on the streets, along with older farmhouses, brick ranches and metal-roofed barns out on the county roads.

    Whole streets here were built by one company in one short period, so their roofs are the same age and tend to come due together. The weather does most of the damage. Severe thunderstorms bring hail and straight-line wind, tornadoes are rare but have touched rural Cleveland County north of Shelby, and inland remnants of tropical systems have brought hurricane-force gusts into the foothills. Winter brings more ice than snow. Sun ages asphalt shingles, and south- and west-facing slopes usually fail first.

    Why homeowners call us

    Why Lawndale Roofing

    Phones answered around the clock

    Phones are answered 24/7, including storm nights when the calls come in. A visit the same day happens only when a technician is free, and no arrival time is promised over the phone.

    Storm damage checked first

    Warnings for this county have cited 60 mph gusts and hail up to golf-ball size, with expected damage to roofs, siding and windows. Crews look first for lifted shingles, dented metal and flashing pulled loose.

    Mill-village roofs understood

    Many houses here were built in the same years with the same shape, so one repair often points to the next. We check the decking and flashing before anyone talks about replacement.

    Straight answers on permits

    Whether a re-roof needs a permit depends on the address and the scope of the work. We point you to the county or town inspections office for a clear answer rather than guess.

    How it works

    From phone call to fixed, in four steps

    1. Call the phone line

      Call at any hour. Give the address or ZIP, what you can see, and whether water is coming into the house.

    2. Make the area safe

      If it is safe to do so, cover holes with a tarp and photograph or video the damage before anything is moved. Keep people away from sagging ceilings and wet wiring.

    3. Check with your insurer

      Some insurers need an adjuster to approve work before it begins, so contact your company early. Your policy and your adjuster decide what is covered.

    4. A technician visits when one is free

      A visit the same day happens only when a technician is free. You receive a written estimate before any work is committed.

    5. Written contract before payment

      Pay nothing without a written contract. Ask for the contractor's license number and check it with the North Carolina Licensing Board for General Contractors.

    Should I replace my roof after a storm?

    Not always. A storm can leave a roof that needs a few repairs, or one that has lost too much to patch. A technician looks at the shingles, flashing, decking and gutters before recommending either.

    Lifted or missing shingles, cracked flashing and gutters pulled off the eaves are common after hail and wind. Granule loss, curling and cracking show how much life the existing roof has left. The state of the nails and the decking underneath matters just as much.

    Remaining life is judged on the roof itself, not on its age alone. Ask for the findings in writing so you can compare them with your insurer's adjuster and with any other estimate you collect.

    Does my roof need a permit in Lawndale?

    It depends on the address and the scope of the work. Cleveland County Building Inspections handles unincorporated county addresses, and Shelby has its own inspections office inside city limits.

    Confirm the jurisdiction before you apply, because the county and the towns have separate offices. Work started without a permit can be charged at double the normal fee under the county schedule, so ask before any work begins.

    The permit guide explains the questions to ask the inspections office. You can find it here: Do I need a permit to replace a roof in Cleveland County.

    What does a storm do to a roof around here?

    Hail and straight-line wind do most of the damage. Trees coming down during tropical storms do much of the rest, and ice in the winter can bring limbs onto roofs.

    Warnings for this county have cited 60 mph gusts with nickel- and golf-ball-size hail, and damage to roofs, siding, windows and vehicles. Those are forecast warnings, but they show the pattern the roofs here have to stand up to, especially from March through June.

    Inland tropical systems are a different hazard. Hurricane Hugo in 1989 produced hurricane-force gusts across the western Piedmont and foothills, and in 2024 Hurricane Helene brought trees down on homes in the county. For a fuller picture, read Hail and wind damage on foothills roofs.

    Who licenses roofing contractors in North Carolina?

    North Carolina issues no roofing license of its own. General contractors are licensed through a state board, and work above a threshold set in state law must be done by one.

    The state's dollar threshold and the rules for specialty work are set out in the license guide. Owners may build or alter a building on land they own without the license in some cases, but they should confirm the exception with the county before acting.

    Ask any contractor for their license number and check it with the North Carolina Licensing Board for General Contractors. The state also advises asking for a certificate of insurance and confirming it with the company that issued it. See North Carolina roofing license rules.

    Answers before you call

    FAQ

    Frequently asked questions

    Do you answer calls at night?

    Phones are answered 24/7, so a storm at night can be reported as it happens. A visit the same day happens only when a technician is free. If water is coming through a ceiling, move what you can out of the way and call.

    Can you tarp my roof right away?

    Emergency tarping is offered, and a tarp is worth putting over a hole when it is safe to get on the roof. Whether a technician can get out the same day depends on how many calls are coming in. Say what is leaking when you call so the right crew is sent.

    Will my insurance pay for the roof?

    That depends on your policy and on what the adjuster finds, and no one here can promise an outcome. Some insurers need an adjuster to approve the work before it begins. Photograph the damage first and keep copies of everything you sign.

    Do you cover towns outside Lawndale?

    Nearby towns in Cleveland County and the area around it are covered, including Shelby, Fallston, Polkville and Lattimore. The service area list shows each town. Towns across the South Carolina line are not covered, because that state runs its own licensing and permits.

    Is metal or shingle better for a house here?

    Both are used on houses and outbuildings in this county. Metal is common on barns and sheds, and more homeowners are choosing it for houses. The right choice depends on the roof's pitch, the existing structure and budget, which a technician will walk through on site.

    Do I need to be home for the visit?

    Someone with access to the roof and the attic should be there, and the technician will ask about past leaks and stains. Tell the crew which rooms have shown water. Plan for the visit to take as long as the roof needs.
