Most roofing manufacturers will not warrant their products if the attic is not properly vented. Yet most roofers don't even talk about ventilation — they just slap on a new roof and walk away.
Top Notch does it differently. Proper venting saves you money on heating and cooling bills, and it plays a major role in prolonging the life of your roof. During every comprehensive roof inspection we'll give you the best ventilation option for your home — and we replace all flashings and pipe boots as part of every installation. No shortcuts. No corners cut. Just craftsmanship that lasts.
From full roof replacement to repairs and ventilation work, Top Notch covers everything Lowcountry homeowners need to protect their biggest investment.
Complete roof replacement using premium materials with full attic ventilation assessment, flashings and pipe boots replaced, and a workmanship warranty on every job.

Glenn is on every job site, involved in every estimate, and personally accountable for every roof Top Notch installs. That's why over 90% of Top Notch's business comes from customer referrals — Glenn's reputation has been built one satisfied homeowner at a time across Summerville, Charleston, Mount Pleasant, Goose Creek, Hanahan, and Ladson.
"Glenn and his crew were professional from the first phone call to the final clean-up. The roof looks fantastic, and Glenn took the time to explain the ventilation work he was doing. Top Notch lives up to the name."
"After a storm damaged our roof in Mount Pleasant, three contractors gave us estimates. Glenn was the only one who actually inspected the attic and explained why proper ventilation matters. Top Notch did the work and we couldn't be happier."
"My neighbor recommended Top Notch and now I know why. Glenn was honest about what we needed and what we didn't. The workmanship is outstanding and the cleanup was perfect. I'll be recommending them to my neighbors too."
Most residential roof replacements take 1 to 3 days depending on the size of the home, the type of roofing material, weather conditions, and whether ventilation upgrades or structural repairs are needed. Glenn provides a clear timeline as part of every estimate so you know exactly what to expect.
Because most roofing manufacturers will not warrant their products if the attic is not properly vented — and most roofers won't tell you that. Proper attic ventilation prolongs the life of your roof, lowers your heating and cooling bills, and protects the manufacturer warranty on your shingles. Top Notch evaluates ventilation on every job and recommends the best solution for your home.
