Gastonia Roof Pros provides professional residential roof installation in Gastonia, NC for residential and commercial properties across Gaston County and the western Charlotte metro. Here is something worth knowing before your deck gets covered in Gaston County. The state's separate sheathing inspection is required in 130 mile per hour wind zones and higher.
Gastonia is not one of those. So in practice nobody from the county examines your deck fastening before it disappears.
That is not a criticism of the inspections office. It is how the administrative code is written. The sheathing inspection exists where exterior sheathing is part of the wall bracing system in high wind areas, and it is made during or after framing and before anything covers it. Below that threshold the framing inspection carries the load and the deck simply gets less attention.
Which means the deck inspection on your house is ours to do or nobody's. We walk every plane before underlayment: fastener depth by gauge, panel edge gaps, support under every joint, any sheet that moves underfoot. It is photographed plane by plane and the file goes to you, because this is the last day of your house's life that the deck is visible.
The schedule itself is six inches along panel edges and twelve inches at intermediate framing, tightened to six inches at intermediate supports within four feet of eaves, rakes and ridges. Overdriven nails are the usual fault rather than missing ones, and a nail driven through the face veneer looks correct from the ground while holding almost nothing.
Deck thickness is the other decision made once. Trusses at twenty-four inches on center need a panel whose span rating carries that distance, and the edges between trusses need clips or blocking or the roof feels springy underfoot for good.
North Carolina requires a general contractor license once a job reaches $40,000, and ours is carried for work at or above that figure. On a new build the order is framing, then cover, then the interior trades, then final. We ask the builder for the inspection card and work to it instead of showing up when our own schedule is clear.
Laminated asphalt is right for nearly every new roof in this county and the premium tiers are mostly appearance. If a general contractor already has a roofer on your job, he wins on schedule and you should let him have it. Call us for additions, detached structures, and decks being rebuilt from bare framing.
Our insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — rough-sawn 1x6 and 1x8 board decking, true-dimension 2x4 rafters at 24 inches on center, three-eighths plywood overlay across board sheathing, wood shingle lath buried under two layers of asphalt, abandoned central brick stove flues, slotted eave intake vents cut through the deck — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Gastonia and nearby communities including Belmont, Mount Holly, Bessemer City, Dallas.

Materials, equipment and how we do residential roof installation
The difference between residential roof installation that lasts and residential roof installation that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with rough-sawn 1x6 and 1x8 board decking, true-dimension 2x4 rafters at 24 inches on center, three-eighths plywood overlay across board sheathing, wood shingle lath buried under two layers of asphalt, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Gastonia job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in Gaston County and the western Charlotte metro means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Gastonia Chooses Gastonia Roof Pros
- ✓We date your roof by its building campaign, not by a guess. Layer count, board width, rafter dimension and flue condition, because on cohort-built housing those four readings predict the job.
- ✓A plane comes open before the price is final. On a board deck the fastener gaps and the soft board ends are the entire risk, and photographing them beats absorbing them later as a change order.
- ✓Decking is a separate line item with a per-board and a per-sheet rate written down, so a re-deck is a number you agreed to rather than a surprise delivered from the ladder.
- ✓We refuse work that the framing cannot carry. Tile on true-dimension rafters, coatings over shingles, and impact-rated upgrades on a roof already carrying two layers all get a no and a reason.
