What Above All Roofing & Construction, Llc does

Above All Roofing & Construction, LLC (AARC) is a privately held, founder-owned exterior contracting company operating from Fuquay-Varina, North Carolina, with a second regional office in New Bern. Founded in 2015 by co-owners TJ Wilson (CEO) and Kaitlyn Kelsey (COO), a Navy Veteran (Devin Kelsey) leads the coastal division. The company delivers residential and commercial roofing (asphalt shingles, standing seam and exposed fastener metal, TPO/EPDM flat membranes, modified bitumen) and a full exterior envelope that includes James Hardie and LP SmartSide siding, seamless aluminum gutters, ProVia windows and doors, VELUX skylights, and custom decks and porches.

The company's service delivery is built on in-house crews (no subcontractor handoffs), layered manufacturer and workmanship warranties (up to 50 years through Owens Corning Preferred Contractor, CertainTeed Shingle Master, VELUX Preferred Installer, ProVia Authorized, and IBHS FORTIFIED credentials), and 24/7 emergency response across North Carolina's Triangle and coastal regions. Proprietary workflow elements include Xactimate-based insurance documentation and on-site adjuster meetings, which the company claims produce 20-40% more approved claim scope, and drone-assisted roof inspections for conditions that limit manual roof walking.

AARC's business model is direct-to-consumer project-based contracting with unit pricing per service line (e.g., $8,000-$22,000 for asphalt shingle replacements, $4.50-$16.00/sf for siding, $1,500-$4,500 for gutter replacement). Revenue is split across seven service streams (roofing, siding, gutters, windows and doors, decks and porches, skylights, and insurance restoration) with insurance restoration functioning as a professional services overlay where the customer pays only the deductible. Marketing is concentrated in local SEO, Google reviews (121 verified), Facebook/Instagram, and storm-driven emergency response. The company has 1-10 employees, no external funding, and founder-ownership only.

Direct peers

• Bone Dry Roofing: National roofing franchise with multiple NC-area locations offering residential roofing, repair, and exterior services. Operates a similar in-house-crew, certified-installer model and competes for the same storm-damage and reroof customers.
• Baker Roofing Company: Raleigh, NC-based full-service residential and commercial roofing contractor serving the same Triangle market as AARC. Overlaps on shingle, metal, and commercial systems and competes head-to-head for Triangle-area storm restoration and reroof work.
• Aspen Contracting: National residential roofing, siding, and gutters contractor with regional NC presence and a strong insurance-restoration sales motion. Competes for similar storm-driven claim work and exterior replacement projects.
• Cochran Exteriors: Midwest-based full-service exterior contractor offering roofing, siding, gutters, windows, and doors under one contract. Mirrors AARC's one-contract, multi-trade exterior water-management positioning.
• Storm Guard Roofing & Construction: National franchise specializing in residential roofing, siding, windows, and storm-damage restoration with NC franchisees. Closely comparable GTM (insurance restoration focus) and product mix to AARC's residential exterior offering.

Broad incumbents

• Roofing Corp of America: Private-equity-backed national roofing and exterior services rollup aggregating regional contractors. Represents the consolidation path AARC could face as a competitor or potential partner; operates across residential reroofing, commercial roofing, and storm restoration.
• Tecta America Commercial Roofing: National commercial roofing platform operating across TPO, EPDM, modified bitumen, and metal systems for property managers and institutional owners. Overlaps on AARC's commercial roofing services but at much larger scale and broader geographic reach.

Regional players

• Paramount Builders: Virginia Beach-based home exterior contractor offering roofing, siding, windows, and gutters across the Mid-Atlantic. Comparable full-service exterior model but operates in a different primary geography than AARC's NC footprint.
