Roof Replacement That Fits Your Cary, NC Neighborhood
Shingle color your association can approve, flashing rebuilt where brick meets the roof, and a choice of three manufacturers. We drive about 16 miles from North Raleigh to Preston, Lochmere and MacGregor Downs.
Replacing Roofs on Cary's Planned-Community Homes
A new roof in Cary usually has to satisfy two parties: the house and the neighborhood. The house needs sound decking, new flashing and enough attic ventilation to let the shingles last. The neighborhood, in many planned communities, wants a color and profile that match its guidelines.
Most Cary replacements we are asked about are on homes from the 1980s and 1990s. Lochmere went up from the mid-1980s through the 1990s, Preston in the 1990s, and Amberly was planned from 1995. Our sales director, Roman Evers, puts it plainly: many of these higher-end homes were built about 20 years ago and their roofs are now due.
Pro Performance Roofing replaces the whole system, from decking to ridge caps, with our own crew and a production manager on site. Because we are certified with GAF, CertainTeed and Owens Corning, you compare three manufacturers' color lines, which helps when an association limits the palette.
What Goes Into a Cary Roof Replacement
Four parts of the job matter more on Cary homes than the brochure suggests.
Color Chosen Before the Order
We settle the shingle line and color with you before anything is ordered. Check your association’s requirements and ask which product information is needed before work is scheduled. Having GAF, CertainTeed and Owens Corning to choose from widens the colors that fit.
New Flashing at Brick and Chimneys
On a brick house, the step and counter flashing where wall meets roof does the real waterproofing. Reusing it under new shingles is how a new roof leaks in year two. We replace it, and we reset or replace chimney flashing as part of the scope, priced in the quote.
Ventilation That Matches the Attic
Many 1990s attics were vented with whatever the builder had on the truck. We check intake at the soffits and exhaust at the ridge, then balance them, because a hot attic cooks shingles from below and shortens their life. Any change is listed line by line.
Shingle Tier Matched to the House
Expect 20 to 35 years from a standard or upgraded architectural shingle, and 35 or more from a designer line. A golf-course home around Prestonwood may justify a designer shingle. A townhome often does not. We tell you which, and why, then register the manufacturer warranty and our extended workmanship warranty in your name.
Cary Neighborhoods and the Roofs on Them
In this corner of western Wake County, the neighborhood tells us a lot before the ladder goes up.
Lochmere and Preston at Replacement Age
Lochmere's two dozen or so subdivisions went up from the mid-1980s through the 1990s, and Preston's roughly 1,625 homes followed around Prestonwood Country Club. Some of these houses are on their original roof and some on a first replacement from two decades ago. Either way, granule loss, lifted shingles and tired pipe boots start to show at this age.
MacGregor Downs Brick and Rooflines
About 400 homes sit around MacGregor Downs Country Club and Lake MacGregor, many with brick exteriors. More brick means more wall flashing and, often, more chimneys. These homes are also where a designer shingle or synthetic slate changes the look most from the street. We bring both to the conversation, plus an upgraded architectural option for owners who want the depth without the designer price.
Amberly and Weston Guidelines
Check your association’s requirements and ask which product information is needed before work is scheduled. We schedule after approval, not before. Permit needs are confirmed for your Cary address before the crew arrives.
How a Cary Replacement Runs
Inspection and samples
We get on the roof, check the attic and photograph the flashing. The visit is free, and we leave color samples for you to hold up against the brick.
Quote and approval packet
A written, line-item quote typically follows within 24 to 48 hours, with product sheets for your association if it needs them.
A date on the calendar
Call to discuss the current schedule.
Our crew, start to finish
Discuss site protection, cleanup and the final review of the work before installation begins.

Financing optionsWhy Cary Homeowners Hire Pro Performance for a New Roof
Sixteen miles, not sixty
We work out of North Raleigh, a short drive from central Cary outside rush hour. Your job sits inside our regular area, not a long trip squeezed in between closer jobs.
Three brands, wider palette
Certification with GAF, CertainTeed and Owens Corning gives you more approved colors to work with when guidelines narrow the field. You are not stuck with the one brand a contractor happens to stock.
Flashing replaced, never reused
Wall and chimney flashing on brick homes is rebuilt and written into the price, so a two-year leak is not part of the package.
Someone to call afterward
Warranty questions go to the same office and crew, a short drive away. Nobody has to track down a contractor who has moved on to the next storm in another state.
Other Roof and Exterior Work in Cary
A leak may only need a repair. Gutters and skylights are easiest to change while the roof is open.
Cary Roof Replacement FAQ
What does a new roof cost in Cary?
Cost follows the roof: its square footage and steepness, how many chimneys and valleys need flashing, the condition of the deck and the shingle tier you choose. Brick homes in Cary with several chimneys cost more to flash than a simple gable. We price it after a free inspection, and the itemized quote usually lands in a day or two. Evenings and Saturdays work for the visit: (919) 241-7663.
How quickly can someone come out to Cary?
Call (919) 241-7663 to discuss current availability and the expected schedule for your project. Visits run Monday through Saturday until 9 pm. Call to discuss the current schedule. Book by phone at (919) 241-7663.
Will my Cary HOA have to approve the shingle color?
Check your association’s requirements and ask which product information is needed before work is scheduled. If yours does, we provide samples, product names and spec sheets for the submission and set the start date after approval. Choosing among three manufacturers usually makes an approved color easier to find, even in communities with a short list of allowed shades.
Is a 1990s roof in Preston or Lochmere due for replacement?
Often, but not always. Architectural shingles generally last 20 to 35 years, so many 1990s Cary roofs, original or replaced once, are inside that window. Heavy granule loss, recurring leaks and loose shingles point toward replacement. A sound roof with one failed pipe boot needs a repair, and we will say so after the inspection. You get photos of what we found either way, so you can judge for yourself.
Can I stay home while the crew works?
Yes, most Cary homeowners stay home. Expect noise during tear-off and the crew moving around the yard; we protect landscaping, cover what needs covering and keep debris contained. Pets do best indoors or away for the day, and cars are safest parked on the street. The production manager is on site and is the person to ask about anything during the job.
Should I replace skylights with the roof?
Usually, yes. A skylight is flashed into the roof, so the cleanest time to replace or add one in a Cary home is while the old shingles are off. We install VELUX skylights only, and new flashing goes around each unit with the new underlayment. Ask during the inspection and we will price each skylight as a separate option, so you can decide unit by unit.
What warranty comes with a Cary roof replacement?
Manufacturer limited lifetime coverage on materials, plus enhanced manufacturer warranties covering materials and workmanship through our GAF, CertainTeed and Owens Corning certifications. We add our own extended workmanship warranty. Every Cary homeowner gets the warranty paperwork registered in their name, which matters if you sell the house. Questions about what is covered and for how long? Call (919) 241-7663.
