Steady. Strong. True.

Where craftsmanship meets conviction.

We are a permanent local roofing company in Asheville — not a storm-response crew that arrives after hail and disappears before the warranty matters.

Who we are

We would rather teach than close.

Roofing has a trust problem, and it is earned. Storm chasers roll into Western North Carolina after every significant hail event with out-of-state plates and a pitch about a free roof. Homeowners sign, the crew leaves, and five years later there is nobody to call.

We built True North to be the opposite of that. Our sales philosophy is literally “teach first, then sell” — we would rather lose a job to a homeowner who did not need one than sell a roof that had eight good years left in it. We give you the photographs, we explain what they mean, and then we let you decide.

That is not altruism. It is the referral engine. In a market this size, reputation compounds faster than advertising does.

The owner

Who owns True North

True North Roofing is owned by Wes Webb. He grew up handing tools to his grandfather, a carpenter and businessman, sold building materials through college, then worked his way through other roofing companies from sales to general manager, with manufacturer training on the specifications that keep a roof system reliable. The crew he built here has worked together for years.

Our lines

What we refuse to do

  • We never waive deductibles.

    It is insurance fraud, and a contractor willing to commit it for you is telling you exactly what they are willing to do to you.

  • We do not chase storms.

    We work the market we live in, year round, including the winter months when it is not profitable to be visible.

  • No same-day discount.

    If a price is only good while the salesperson is standing in your kitchen, it was never a real price.

  • No single lump-sum quotes.

    Every proposal is line-itemed across three scoped options so you can see exactly what changes between them.

Our warranty

The Lifetime Craftsmanship Warranty

Our warranty covers our workmanship — the installation itself — for as long as you own the home. It is written in plain English with no appendix of exclusions, and the clock starts the day you sign off on the final walkthrough rather than the day we started the job.

Material defects are covered separately by the manufacturer’s warranty, which we register on your behalf within 24 hours of completion. You receive a PDF certificate and care instructions.

Warranty claims are triaged within one business day. An active safety leak gets a same-day tarp. Anything else gets an inspection within 48 hours, root-cause analysis, and photo documentation of the resolution.

How a job runs

Six steps, in the same order, every time.

Step 01

Intake

A real conversation, not a qualification script. We ask about roof age, where you have seen water, how long you plan to be in the home, and whether access is going to be a problem. Then we book the inspection around your calendar.

Step 02

Forensic inspection

We measure the roof, get into the attic, and photograph every plane, valley, penetration and flashing detail. We check ventilation balance and decking condition — the two things most estimates skip entirely.

Step 03

Roof Health Report

You get the photos and a plain-English read on what is actually happening up there, including honest remaining service life. If the roof has good years left, we will tell you so and put the report in writing.

Step 04

Three options at the table

Good, better and best — each line-itemed so you can see exactly what changes between them. Financing shown alongside. Then one question: which option fits best? No same-day discount, no manufactured deadline.

Step 05

Install to the checklist

A CraftsmanCert-badged crew works the 30-point checklist. Magnet sweeps twice daily. Photos at every stage, uploaded as we go, so you can watch the job from your phone while you are at work.

Step 06

Zero-punch walkthrough

The dumpster does not leave until the foreman and you have walked the property together and every item on the checklist has passed. Your warranty clock starts the day you sign off — not the day we started.

Your foreman works the same 30-point checklist on every install, and the dumpster does not leave until every item passes and you have walked the property with them.

    “Wes, Jerry and Daniel are absolute gems and we are lucky to have stumbled upon them. It's very hard to find honest business owners that care about the work they do and these guys delivered in spades. They were communicative despite us having to postpone multiple times due to the non-stop rain we had. But they came in, worked for hours, and did an immaculate job. Jerry is a problem solver and can think outside the box and was able to work around a few complications we had. The whole crew is just a group of solid hard working folks that care about the work they do. If you're tired of big companies taking you for a ride and giving you insane quotes to redo your entire roof when instead you need someone to give you an honest opinion and a solid repair. Look no more. These guys will take good care of you. Thanks again for your exceptional workmanship. If I ever need anything roofing related. Y'all are the first people I will call. You can count on that.”
