Gallop Roofing was founded in 1952 by Roscoe and Gilda Gallop. The Gallops owned and operated Gallop Roofing, Inc. until 1990 when ownership was transferred to Rex Simpson and family. Under the leadership of the Simpsons, Gallop Roofing, Inc. added a remodeling department becoming Gallop Roofing & Remodeling, Inc.
We contracted with Gallop after several failed attempts at roof repair from another contractor. They were quick to respond and accurate in their diagnosis of the problem. Follow up and resolution of open issues was prompt and professional. Gallop Roofing did an excellent job replacing our cafe roof.
There are many types of roofs and each roof leak is unique. Some leaks may be visible at the roof surface level while others will go undetected by an trained eye, particularly on a leaking flat roof. A thorough assessment requires an experienced repair contractor with highly trained roofing inspectors to investigate and identify the extent and severity of damage to your roof system.
When you imagine a roof, you probably think of asphalt shingles. That is because asphalt shingle roofing is the most common type of roofing for steep sloped roofs, such as homes and businesses. Because our clients have a wide range of needs, we strive to offer a wide variety of shingle styles and colors.

Buyer beware! I engaged Gallop Roofing to repair some issues with my roof that were discovered as part of a home inspection. This home is not my full-time residence, so I was not able to inspect their work once the job was finished. Since Gallop was highly recommended by my realtor, I paid them for their work once the job was finished. The invoice from Gallop specifically said that they had "walked roof and seal over any exposed or low nailed nails".
About 2 weeks later, I arrived and got onto the roof to inspect for myself. I was shocked to see so many nail heads exposed. I also noticed a water leak in 5 different areas. When I contacted Gallop roofing to come to my home as soon as possible to help repair the leak in my roof, and to re-seal the nail heads they had no sense of urgency and placed me #41 on a list.
Two weeks later, when I asked how soon they would be able to come out to my home, they said that there were a number of other customers ahead of me and that I was #41 on the list. Attached are photos of the nail heads and the ensuing water damage after a rain storm. After numerous complaints, they have still refused to make things right. I would NOT consider hiring Gallop Roofing unless you are willing to get up on your roof to inspect any work that they do or if you expect their work to be done in a timely fashion.

When I was having major problems with a raccoon, a buddy recommended Gallop Roofing & Remodeling. The raccoon ripped the lattice from beneath my deck! The Gallop crew restored the lattice with solid wood, coloured it to match the deck, and rebuilt the steps and railings! This organisation deserves 5 stars for their quality, cost, and dependability!

Excellent service! I'd dealt with several roofers before, but Gallop was the only one that walked us through the entire process, gave us alternatives, and made sure everything was in order the entire time. With something you can't see, trust is essential, and we felt well taken care of. Previous firms only patched up holes in our roof. Gallop did, in fact, repair it.
We replaced old wood and maintained constant communication throughout the procedure. It was reassuring to have a supervisor examining the job throughout the entire process. Also, the service was quite swift. Our roof was completed in only one day! I cannot recommend this firm highly enough, and I will continue to use them in the future.

Excellent service. We first called Gallop Roofing & Remodeling for a new roof for our addition, but they ended up completing a new roof on the old house as well. They were really quick and attentive, and they installed a gorgeous roof. They were frequently on-site to oversee his staff. We would absolutely use it again and strongly suggest it. Thank you very much, Gallop Roofing & Remodeling.

Highly recommend and will happily use again for future projects. We bought a house and had a list of a few projects that needed to be completed and Gallop Roofing and Remodeling exceeded all expectations. Their pricing was reasonable and the quality of their work was outstanding. They addressed everything from cutting down these large bolts that could cut someone open to making a no-fall window enhancement near our hut tub.
They replaced siding that had become weathered, checked seals on the roof and attic and replaced a drainage vent. Their ability to solve a multitude of problems made it much easier to correct the deficiencies of the house we had just purchased. Highly recommend - they were friendly, helpful, explained what they could do and recommended an electrician when a project exceeded their scope, truly a pleasure to work with and will be using them as our primary for years to come.

They sent in a crew of wonderful young people who tore my old roof off, installed another layer of plywood sheeting and put the new shingles on, all in one day! Plus they hung my Christmas lights on my house! Highly recommend! Services: Gutter repair, Storm/wind damage roof repair, Roof repair, Roof installation

I had to continually call with my fingers crossed about my small roof repair job (sub 4K), that ended up getting pushed back from each date range they told me 3 different times. The 3rd arangement, Aug 12 (23 days after paying 50% deposit), Vicki said I was next in line, which would be about 1 week out if no rain, and she agreed when I yet again asked for a call leading up to specifying exactly what day.
And yet again no call (the only call they ever made to me was from Darla regarding payment). My trust was nonexistent, but I officially decided to put it elsewhere, and thankfully this other company completed my repair in no time. Gallop's delays was delaying putting my house up for sale. Week of my job date I hurriedly attempted to call 2 or 3 times to cancel to no avail.
No answers. Next thing I know, they are in my driveway! Poor guys. But good thing I was home and they didn't go tear off my new roof! I bet they totally would have. I picked their cigarette butt up off my driveway, and told myself it was all over as they drove away. Only plus out of this entire headache was a seamless refund! It truly felt like the small job sideliner, talk out of the side of their mouth type stuff.

I choose Gallop Roofing for the roof replacement on my home in Kill Devil Hills, NC. Working with Devon Holshausen and Tucker Simpson was a very professional and rewarding experience. They were always responsive to my questions and performed the work in a timely fashion. They helped me apply for and receive a $6,000.00 grant from the North Carolina Insurance Underwriting Association for my new, FORTIFIED roof. I highly recommend Gallop Roofing if you need roof repairs or a new roof. RF Diegelmann

I had some issues with strong storms/hurricanes blowing off my shingles for years. Not any more with this great looking metal roof. Gallop is the best in the area in my opinion. They completed the installation on time with no issues. and it looks great. Really good quality. Richard and Ben were both very knowledge and answered all my questions easily. They ever did a great job cleaning up when they were done. I can't recommend them enough for any rook repairs or replacement.

I want to share with others who may consider using this company for their roofing needs, that I was VERY impressed with Gallop's work. From initial appraisal to the completion and follow up, they were very neat, professional, and friendly. Clean-up was excellent and they even came back and cleaned out the gutters following a hard rain. I also have to recognize the efforts of Tucker Simpson, who managed the project.
He listened to my concerns about protecting the surface of our dry deck and the swimming pool cover from falling debris. He took the time to protect them both from any damage. Great job and will definitely recommend them to anyone needing their service!
