Balken Roofing is a family-owned roofing contractor in Swannanoa that has been working across Western North Carolina since 1995.

They handle both residential and commercial roofs, along with inspections, ongoing maintenance, gutters and downspouts, and skylight work. The company is a VELUX 5-Star factory-trained installer, which matters if a skylight or sun tunnel is part of the job — that’s a different install from a straight shingle replacement.

Balken holds GAF Master Elite certification, a status GAF limits to roughly three percent of contractors nationally, and belongs to the National Roofing Contractors Association and the Asheville Home Builders Association. They also run the local “No Roof Left Behind” program, which gives away a free roof to a nominated family.

Beyond Asheville and Swannanoa, they cover Waynesville, Hendersonville, and Brevard.

  • Baker Home Exteriors

    Mills River, NC

    Baker Home Exteriors covers the Asheville and Hendersonville area from an office on Emma Sharp Road in Mills River. The family business traces back to 1915, which makes it one of the older roofing names working in Western North Carolina. The scope is the whole exterior — roofing, gutters, siding, windows, doors, and decks — with roof repair and full replacement as the core. They are a Ludowici Crown Roofer, a certification tied to clay tile work that very few contractors in this region hold. Residential focus, and the review volume backs up the tenure.

  • Burish Builders West LLC

    Asheville, NC

    Burish Builders West is a family-owned roofing contractor working out of Hendersonville Road in Asheville. The work covers new installations, repairs, inspections, and maintenance on both residential and commercial buildings, plus emergency response and insurance restoration claims — the storm-damage side of the trade where the roofer deals with the adjuster alongside the homeowner. They're GAF Master Elite certified and FORTIFIED Roof certified, the IBHS standard built around wind and water intrusion, which is worth asking about on an exposed mountain site. The company is licensed, insured, and BBB rated. Service area runs from Asheville out to Hendersonville, Waynesville, Franklin, and Forest City.

  • CM Traber Innovative Roofing

    Clyde, NC

    CM Traber Innovative Roofing is based on Windy Hill Drive in Clyde and covers residential, commercial, and industrial roofing. Metal is their specialty, which fits the county. Standing seam and metal panel roofs shed snow and ice better than shingles at elevation and last long enough to be the last roof a lot of houses here get. They also do inspections, storm and wind damage repair, attic venting, skylights, and gutters, and they're fully insured. Free inspections and estimates. Worth using that after a hail or wind event even if nothing is visibly wrong inside — damage that gets found in year one is an insurance claim, and damage found in year four is usually your own bill.

  • DLV Roofing Systems, Inc.

    Mills River, NC

    DLV Roofing Systems runs its Western North Carolina operation from Brandy Branch Road in Mills River. President Pete De La Vega is a third-generation roofer and founded the company in 1999; the firm counts more than 200 years of combined experience across its crews. They are a **Certified CertainTeed Premier Installer** and a CertainTeed Select ShingleMaster, GAF certified, BBB accredited, and NAHB members — a stack of credentials that matters mostly because the top-tier manufacturer certifications unlock longer workmanship warranties than a standard installer can write. Residential work covers replacement, repair, and maintenance, plus siding, windows, doors, and skylights. They are a licensed general contractor and take commercial roofing as well. Additional offices in Charleston, SC and Indianapolis, IN.
