Your Trusted Roofing Contractor in Rhodhiss, NC
S&S Roofing is a veteran-owned roofing company serving Rhodhiss, NC and the surrounding Caldwell County area. We have been installing, repairing, and replacing roofs across the Foothills since 1995 — more than 4,500 roofs — and Rhodhiss is 10 miles northwest of Hickory, comfortably inside the area we cover every week.
Whether you need a full replacement, a fast repair after a storm, or an honest inspection before you buy or sell, you get certified installation, our own crews rather than subcontractors, and a 5-year workmanship warranty on every full re-roof on top of the manufacturer’s material coverage.
If you are comparing roofers in Rhodhiss, ask each one whether they subcontract, what their workmanship warranty covers, and which manufacturers have certified them. Those three answers separate most companies quickly.
Roofing in Rhodhiss: What We Actually See Here
Roofing a Town That Reached the Moon
Rhodhiss is one of the most storied small towns we cover. It grew up around the cotton mill that John M. Rhodes and George B. Hiss built on the upper Catawba River in 1902 — the town’s name is literally its two founders’ names joined together. Under Burlington Industries the mill later wove the fabric for the U.S. flags planted on the Moon by Apollo 11. Today a town of roughly 1,000 people still straddles the Catawba, split between Caldwell and Burke counties, with Rhodhiss Dam holding back Lake Rhodhiss just upstream. For a roofer, that history is right there on the ground: block after block of early-1900s mill-worker houses — small, closely spaced, simple gable roofs over old board decking — now mixed with newer homes built out along the water.
Lake Rhodhiss Exposure and Foothills Storms
At about 1,060 feet in the upper Catawba valley, Rhodhiss gets the full Foothills weather pattern: spring and summer thunderstorms that drive hail and hard wind, winter freeze-thaw that works sealant loose, and heavy rain off the tail ends of tropical systems. Homes on the water take extra punishment — open lake fetch means stronger wind-driven rain hitting the eaves and rakes, and shaded slopes down near the river hold humidity that grows algae and moss. We answer that with higher wind-rated shingles, sealed valleys, ice-and-water shield where it counts, and careful flashing around the dormers and additions that lake homes tend to collect over the years.
Free Inspections on Both Sides of the River
Rhodhiss is only about 10 miles northwest of us, and we work both sides of the Catawba — the Caldwell side up Caldwell Street toward Granite Falls, and the Burke side down Burke Street toward Icard. We know how the two-county permitting works here, so it never slows your job down. We have roofed this region since 1995 with our own employee crews, and every full replacement carries a 5-year workmanship warranty on top of the manufacturer’s material coverage. We will measure the actual roof and put an honest, written price in your hands at no cost.

Roofing Considerations Specific to Rhodhiss
On the older mill houses, the real question is almost always what sits under the shingles. Many of these homes have had a second layer added over the decades, and the original 1x6 board decking can hide soft, punky spots you cannot see from the ground. We tear off to the deck, replace any rotten boards, and re-roof over fresh underlayment rather than laying new shingles over old — it costs a little more up front, and it is the only way we can stand behind a real warranty.
On the newer homes out along Lake Rhodhiss the work is more straightforward, but the lake exposure still shapes the details: higher wind-rated shingles, sealed penetrations, and gutters sized for the runoff. After 4,500-plus roofs across the region since 1995, we quote every Rhodhiss roof from what is actually on it rather than treating them all the same.
