Why Chapel Hill homeowners choose Baker as their roofing company
Baker Home Exteriors is a licensed roofing contractor serving Chapel Hill from our Triangle branch at 1051 Schieffelin Road in Apex, about 35 minutes east. Our crews work the western Triangle every week, and the Chapel Hill work runs the full range: roof replacement, roof repair, free storm and hail inspections, commercial roofing, and gutters. We've put our hands on every kind of roof this town has, from steep historic rooflines in the neighborhoods near Franklin Street and the UNC campus to mid-century houses under heavy canopy off Estes Drive, the Glen Lennox area, and the planned streets of Southern Village and Meadowmont.
Chapel Hill homeowners are careful about who they let on their houses, and they should be. We're not a storm crew passing through after the next round of Piedmont hail. We don't door-knock, and we don't sell roofs people don't need. Baker has been family-owned since 1915 and is 100% employee-owned today, so the Baker team running your project owns a piece of the company. The record stands on its own: 25,000+ jobs in the last 10 years, 4.9 stars on 2,000+ Google reviews, BBB A+, and CertainTeed ShingleMaster Premier. If a repair can buy your roof more years, we'll tell you, because we'd rather prolong a roof than sell you one you don't need.
Here's how a Chapel Hill job goes. We walk the roof, open the attic, and bring real samples to your kitchen table, including slate, cedar, copper, and metal options when the house calls for them. One named project manager stays with your job from the first visit through the final walkthrough, you get photo updates from the roof while we work, and we run a magnetic nail sweep across your yard and driveway before we leave. The quote is written, honest, and free of surprise add-ons. A lifetime warranty is available on qualifying shingle systems, 0% financing for 24 months is available with no deposit required, and if you're already holding a quote, we'll review any competitive offer line-by-line so you can compare apples to apples.

We install all the popular roofing materials in Chapel Hill, North Carolina
- Asphalt Roofing
In Southern Village and Meadowmont, architectural shingles have to clear design standards and survive heavy shade. We spec algae-resistant systems and match palettes the community already approved.
- Cedar Wood Roofing
Chapel Hill's older streets were made for cedar shake. We install and maintain it with the ventilation it needs under the heaviest tree canopy in the Triangle.
- Slate Roofing
The historic rooflines near Franklin Street and the UNC campus deserve slate done right. We install natural and synthetic slate that holds the look the street has kept for a century.
- Metal Roofing
When a limb comes out of the canopy off Estes Drive, standing-seam metal takes the hit better than shingles ever will. A 50-plus-year roof for a town that lives under its trees.

Baker replaced our slate roof and they were absolutely excellent. Steven Bartz was professional and a pleasure to work with the entire process. From start to finish everything was flawless, and the final result is a truly beautiful roof.
- David George3 months ago
Exceptional job on window, siding and gutter replacement. Everything was literally measured twice and arrived the proper size. No surprises once work started, and the job site was kept clean with daily end-of-day sweeps.
- Anthony Gallo7 months ago
We were told by someone else that we needed an entirely new roof. Will gave us the honest news that we only had a few shingles and pipe boots to replace. His honesty and quick scheduling saved us so much stress (and money).

What this could mean for your roof
Highs in Chapel Hill climb through the week, from 86° today to 97° by Monday. Storm chances ride along four of the next seven days, peaking at 93% today.
The quiet stress in that picture is heat: five afternoons at 90° or better cook asphalt shingles and the attics under them, which is why our crews start tear-offs at first light. The day to watch is today: thunderstorms at 93% with gusts near 21 mph. Wind-driven rain finds weak flashing first, so a quick look after it passes beats a ceiling stain later.

Service AreasCommon roofing questions from Chapel Hill, NC homeowners
Does Baker Home Exteriors handle roofing in Chapel Hill? +
Yes. Our crews work Chapel Hill and the western Triangle every week from our branch at 1051 Schieffelin Rd in Apex, about 35 minutes away. We handle roof replacement, roof repair, free inspections, and emergency tarping across Chapel Hill and Carrboro.
What does a new roof cost in Chapel Hill? +
Chapel Hill prices vary more than most towns because the houses do: a steep historic roofline near campus is a different job than a 1990s shingle roof in Southern Village. The estimate is free, written, and itemized with no surprise add-ons. 0% financing for 24 months is available with no deposit required, and if you already have a quote, we'll review any competitive offer line-by-line so you can compare apples to apples.
Can you replace the roof on an older Chapel Hill home without losing its character? +
Yes, and we do it often. The historic districts near Franklin Street carry steep gables, dormers, and original slate and cedar worth keeping. We install slate, cedar shake, copper, standing-seam metal, and architectural shingles that respect the original look, and we bring real samples so you can see the match on your own porch before deciding.
A limb came through my roof in Chapel Hill. What should I do? +
Call us. Chapel Hill's tree canopy is beautiful and hard on roofs, and limbs come down in every strong storm season. We offer emergency tarping to stop the leak first, then our HAAG-certified inspectors document the damage with photos for your insurance company and give you an honest read on repair versus replacement.
Is Baker licensed and insured to roof in North Carolina? +
Yes. We're licensed and insured in North Carolina, a CertainTeed ShingleMaster Premier contractor, and BBB A+ rated, with HAAG-certified inspectors on staff. A lifetime warranty is available on qualifying shingle systems, and we've completed 25,000+ jobs in the last 10 years.
