Why Durham homeowners choose Baker as their roofing company
Baker Home Exteriors is a licensed roofing contractor serving Durham from our Triangle branch in Apex, about 30 minutes down the road, and our crews are in the Bull City every week. We handle the full range: roof replacement, roof repair, free storm and hail inspections, and emergency tarping. We work every kind of Durham roof, from the steep gables of early-1900s homes in Trinity Park and Watts-Hillandale to the mill houses of Old West Durham and East Durham, ranches off Guess Road in north Durham, and the newer subdivisions along Fayetteville Road near Southpoint. 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.
We are not a storm crew that shows up after Triangle hail and disappears by fall. We don't door-knock, we don't pressure, and we don't sell roofs people don't need. Baker has been family-owned since 1915, and today the company is 100% employee-owned, which means the Baker team running your project has a stake in doing it right. The numbers back that up: 25,000+ jobs in the last 10 years, 4.9 stars on 2,000+ Google reviews, BBB A+, and CertainTeed ShingleMaster Premier. The crew in this video shows how we work: carefully, and like the job carries our name, because it does.
Here is what working with us looks like. A named project manager handles your job from the first inspection to the final walkthrough. We walk the roof, open the attic, and bring real samples to your kitchen table so you can compare options side by side. During install you get photo updates from the roof, and before we leave we run a magnetic nail sweep across your yard and driveway. The quote is written, honest, and free of surprise add-ons. 0% financing for 24 months is available with no deposit required, a lifetime warranty is available on qualifying shingle systems, and if you have a quote from someone else, we'll review any competitive offer line-by-line so you can compare apples to apples. And if a storm hits on a Saturday or a holiday, we still answer the phone for emergency tarping.

We install all the popular roofing materials in Durham, North Carolina
- Asphalt Roofing
Architectural shingles handle most Durham roofs, from mill houses in Old West Durham to new builds near Southpoint. We spec ventilation and wind ratings for Bull City heat and storm seasons.
- Cedar Wood Roofing
Cedar shake suits Durham's early-1900s neighborhoods, where deep overhangs and original details set the tone. We install it with the treatment and airflow humid summers require.
- Slate Roofing
The steep gables of Trinity Park and Forest Hills were built for roofs like this. We install natural and synthetic slate that respects what tobacco-era craftsmen put up the first time.

Standing-seam metal earns its place under Durham's old oaks, where dropped limbs end shingle roofs early. Fifty-plus years of service with very little asked of you in between.

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).
This week's roofing weather in Durham, NC.

What this could mean for your roof
Highs in Durham climb through the week, from 87° today to 98° by Monday. Storm chances ride along four of the next seven days, peaking at 96% 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 96% 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 Durham, NC homeowners
Do you handle roofing in Durham, NC? +
Yes. Our crews work Durham every week from our branch at 1051 Schieffelin Rd in Apex, about 25 to 30 minutes away. We handle roof replacement, roof repair, storm inspections, and emergency tarping across Durham and the rest of Durham County.
What does a new roof cost in Durham? +
It depends on the size and pitch of your roof, the material you choose, and what we find on the decking underneath. The estimate is free, written, and has no surprise add-ons, and 0% financing for 24 months is available with no deposit required. If you already have a quote in hand, we'll review any competitive offer line-by-line so you can compare apples to apples.
Can you replace the roof on an older Durham home without losing its character? +
Yes, and we do it often. Early-1900s homes in Trinity Park, Watts-Hillandale, and Forest Hills have steep gables and details worth keeping. We match shingle profiles and colors to the house, repair plank decking the right way, and walk you through options like architectural shingles or metal accents that respect the original look.
How do Triangle storms affect Durham roofs? +
Wind and hail are the usual suspects, and the mature trees that shade older Durham neighborhoods can drop limbs in a strong storm. Our HAAG-certified inspectors check for hail bruising, lifted shingles, and impact damage, document everything with photos for your insurance, and offer emergency tarping when a roof can't wait.
Do you offer more than roofing in Durham? +
Yes. Our Triangle branch also installs gutters, siding, windows, and doors, so Durham homeowners can handle the whole exterior with one crew and one point of contact. We are licensed and insured in North Carolina, BBB A+, and a CertainTeed ShingleMaster Premier contractor.
