Roof Repair or Replace Quiz for Charleston, SC
Not every leak means a new roof. This five-question quiz looks at your Charleston, SC roof's age, material, visible wear, storm history and past fixes, then suggests whether a repair, a closer look or a full replacement is worth talking through. It takes about a minute, and your answers stay on your screen.

Pick the answer closest to what you know. "Not sure" is a perfectly good choice, and the quiz treats it as a reason to have someone take a look. Step 3 lets you mark several signs at once. Check only from safe spots: the yard, a window, the gutters from a ladder at the eaves, or the attic on a bright afternoon.
The result is a starting point, not a diagnosis. The quiz can't see your decking, flashing or fasteners, and only a roofer on the roof can. A sagging roofline always scores at least "worth an inspection soon", because it can point to trouble in the deck or framing. If your home has a historic slate or metal roof, keep in mind that inside the Old and Historic and Old City Districts, the City's 2014 roofing policy leans toward repair wherever it can.
Using What You Learned
Whatever your result, a few dated photos help. Snap any ceiling stains, granules piled in the gutters and anything you can see from the yard before you call. They give the roofer a head start and give you a record of when the trouble began.
Then send one request. We pass it to one independent local roofer serving the Charleston area, who calls to arrange a visit and puts any price in writing. The referral is free to you, though the roofer may pay us for it. The South Carolina roofing rules page explains what to check before you sign.
