FAQ's From Knightdale Homeowners
Q: How much does a new roof cost in Knightdale, NC?
A: In Knightdale, most homeowners pay around $16,000–$18,000 for a full roof replacement, depending on the size of the home, roof pitch, and materials selected. Barkley-Jensen Roofing & Restoration serves Knightdale with free same-day inspections, so you can get an accurate number for your specific home before committing to anything.
Q: My Knightdale home was built around 2008 (or earlier) — is it time to replace my roof?
A: It could be. Most roofs in Knightdale’s mid-2000s subdivisions are now 15–20 years old, which is the window when shingle performance starts declining and repairs become less cost-effective than a full replacement. A free inspection will tell you whether you’re dealing with a repair situation or a replacement, and Barkley-Jensen offers same-day inspections in Knightdale at no cost.

Frequently Asked Questions
Your Questions, Our Answers
What’s the difference between architectural shingles and standard 3-tab shingles?
3-tab shingles are a single-layer, flat product common in builder-grade installs through the 1990s and 2000s. Architectural shingles are a thicker, multi-layer product with better wind resistance, a longer lifespan, and more visual dimension. Most quality roof replacements today use architectural shingles as the baseline, and the cost difference over the life of the roof is minimal when you consider how much longer they perform. Barkley-Jensen installs architectural shingles as standard on every residential replacement.
How do I verify that a roofing contractor is properly licensed in North Carolina?
NC requires roofing contractors to hold a valid license through the NC Licensing Board for General Contractors, and you can verify any contractor’s status directly at nclbgc.org. You should also confirm the company carries both general liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage before allowing any crew on your property. Barkley-Jensen is fully licensed and insured in North Carolina — License #100322 — and we’ll provide documentation before work begins if you’d like it.
What should I do right away if I notice a roof leak inside my home?
Start by protecting your belongings and placing a container under any active drip. Note where on the ceiling the leak is appearing, which helps narrow down the roof source. Avoid going on the roof yourself, especially in wet or slippery conditions. Take photos of any interior water staining for insurance documentation. Then call us: Barkley-Jensen offers free same-day inspections, and the faster a leak is addressed, the less damage spreads into insulation, framing, and interior finishes.
Will my homeowner’s insurance cover a roof replacement in Knightdale after a storm?
It depends on the cause of the damage and your policy, but wind and hail damage — which is common in Knightdale — is typically covered under standard homeowner’s insurance. Barkley-Jensen’s team has direct experience with storm damage inspections and insurance claim support, and they can help you understand what your policy likely covers before any work begins.
