Roofing & Exteriors by Cunningham Contractors
Roofs, siding, gutters, windows and doors for Charleston-area homes, built for coastal weather by the same local team you trust inside your home.
Built for Lowcountry weather
Your roof and exterior take the brunt of Lowcountry heat, humidity, salt air and storm season. Cunningham Contractors is a locally owned residential construction company that has served Charleston and the surrounding Lowcountry for more than 15 years. We handle roof replacements and repairs, siding, gutters, windows and doors, with the same clear communication and hands-on approach we bring to every kitchen, addition and renovation.
Because we're a full residential builder, we don't stop at the shingles. If we find rotted decking, damaged framing or water damage underneath, we can repair it as part of the same project instead of handing you off to someone else.
Our Roofing & Exterior Services
Roof Replacement & Repair
From a few lifted shingles to a full tear-off and replacement, we'll tell you plainly what your roof needs. We start with an inspection, explain what we found with photos, and give you a clear written quote before any work begins. Permits are pulled where required, repairs included.
Storm & Wind-Resistant Coastal Roofing
Charleston-area homes need roofs built for high winds and salt air. We install high-wind-rated shingles and standing-seam metal roofs, sealed roof decks, enhanced nailing, and corrosion-resistant metal and fasteners for homes near the water.
High-Wind Roof Upgrades
Want a roof built to stand up to hurricane season? We offer high-wind upgrades like a sealed roof deck, upgraded drip edge and edge details, and stronger nailing and attachment. Ask us which upgrades make sense for your home and budget.
Siding
Siding keeps water out and makes the first impression. We replace and repair siding and fix the rot and moisture damage that often hides behind it, so the new exterior goes onto a solid wall.
Gutters
Good gutters protect your roof, fascia, siding and foundation from Lowcountry downpours. We install new gutters and downspouts and replace damaged runs, sized and pitched to move water away from your home.
Windows & Doors
New windows and exterior doors can make your home quieter, more comfortable and better sealed against wind-driven rain. We handle the full installation, including flashing, trim and any repairs to the surrounding framing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you repair roofs, or only replace them?
Both. If a repair will solve the problem, we'll tell you. If the roof is near the end of its life, we'll explain why and show you photos.
What areas do you serve?
Charleston and the surrounding Lowcountry, including Mount Pleasant, Daniel Island, James Island, Johns Island, West Ashley, North Charleston, Summerville, Goose Creek, Hanahan, Isle of Palms, Sullivan's Island, Kiawah Island, Seabrook Island and Folly Beach.
What are high-wind roof upgrades?
They are extra steps that help a roof hold up in coastal storms: sealing the roof deck so water stays out if shingles blow off, stronger edge details, and upgraded nailing and attachment. We'll walk you through which ones make sense for your home.
My roof was damaged in a storm. Can you help?
Yes. We can inspect the damage, make temporary repairs where needed, and give you a written estimate. We can also provide detailed documentation and photos of storm damage for your records. How your insurance claim is handled stays between you and your insurance company.
Do you offer a warranty?
Yes. Our work comes with a 1-year workmanship warranty.
