Does a Reroof in Apex Need a Permit?
It depends on cost and materials. The Town of Apex's When is a permit needed guide lists re-roofing projects costing over $40,000 as needing a permit, and lists a roofing replacement that does not exceed $40,000, uses the same type of materials and involves no structural work as appearing not to need one. Changing from asphalt shingles to metal is a change of material, so ask the Town before assuming you are exempt. The $40,000 figure comes from state law in G.S. 160D-1110.
What Are Apex Homes Like?
Apex had 58,780 residents in the 2020 Census, and about 76.5% of homes are owner-occupied, one of the highest rates of the cities on this site, per Census QuickFacts. Much of the housing is in newer subdivisions, and many have homeowners associations with architectural review. Bring the HOA's approval for profile and color into the estimate conversation early.
What Weather Should an Apex Roof Be Ready for?
Spring hail, summer heat and the odd tropical storm. The State Climate Office reports hail up to 2.5 inches across in Wake and Alamance counties during the storms of late April and early May 2016. Raleigh-Durham International's 1991-2020 normals put the July average high at 90.8°F. Hurricane Fran in 1996 caused more than $900 million in property damage in Wake County.
What Should You Decide Before the Estimate?
Profile (slate, cedar shingle, shake, Mediterranean tile or standing seam), color, and whether your current roof is a single layer of asphalt. One layer can stay only if inspection finds it suitable and the code allows; cedar, tile and natural slate always come off.
How Does Paying for It Work?
Metal Roof NC prepares a project-specific estimate before work begins. Financing is available through Service Finance for qualified homeowners, subject to lender approval and terms, and you can apply before choosing a roofing system.
