Buncombe County had 15 roofing establishments with paid employees in the Census Bureau's 2023 count; 53.3% had fewer than 5 employees. The count excludes self-employed owners without employees and gives no commercial specialty breakdown. For an Asheville commercial project, ask each bidder for a staffing plan identifying the assigned crew and any subcontracted work. A county count is not a staffing commitment to your building.

Our read: commercial roofing in Asheville
Does the county roofing establishment count show available commercial crews?
The 2023 Census count of 15 Buncombe County roofing establishments covers locations with paid employees, not crews available for your project. Request a project staffing commitment from the bidder, including who supervises any subcontracted roofing work.
What commercial roofing is, and what to ask about it
Commercial roofing covers retail, office, warehouse, church and multi-family buildings. Most of these roofs are flat or low-slope and use single-ply membranes, modified bitumen, built-up roofing or standing seam metal.
Crews, materials and warranties differ from house roofing. A company that is good on shingles may not be the right one for a membrane roof.
Signs you need it
- Ponding water after rain on a flat roof
- Open seams or failed flashing at rooftop units and parapets
- Ceiling stains below drains, units or roof edges
- A roof near the end of its warranty, with a lease or sale coming up
Ask each roofer
- How many buildings like mine have you roofed in the last two years?
- Do you scope the whole drainage path or only the wet spot?
- Can you scan or core the roof to see whether the insulation is wet?
- Who holds the membrane warranty, you or the manufacturer?
What Asheville changes about commercial roofing
A large share of Asheville's housing sits outside single-family houses, so flat and low-slope roofs are common. Ask every company about its experience with your type of building, not only with houses.

That day brought 4 reports, with the largest from Craggy.
A commercial roof laid before May 2025 was in place for the largest stone in the record, so ask for a roof survey and keep it with the warranty papers.

Why this page prints no city price for commercial roofs
A commercial roof is priced by the building: its area, membrane, insulation, drainage and rooftop equipment. One range per city would mislead.
Ask each company for a written scope and a price per square foot of roof, so bids can be compared line by line.
