    Josh and his crew are fantastic and I highly recommend this company for their conscientious approach and speed in service delivery. I sustained a 5-in hole in my garage roof in Dillsboro(long story) and called Highlander in some desperation given rain that evening in the forecast. Josh came by that morning, scoped the job, and then swung by with a crew that same afternoon and replaced the plywood between the rafters and matched the shingles in a seamless job, then cleaned up so well you couldn't tell they had been there. I can't thank the team at Highlander Roofing enough - they are my roofer from here on!

    At 2,041 ft, Dillsboro's wind, rain and UV exposure pushes us toward designer shingle systems, with attention to drainage capacity and flashing at every transition. We specify against your specific address and exposure rather than a single default product.

    Dillsboro falls under Jackson County. Jackson County permits are handled through the county Permitting and Code Enforcement office in Sylva, with steep-slope and stormwater considerations common on plateau and lakefront parcels. Cashiers, Sapphire, and Lake Glenville projects frequently involve community design review in addition to the county permit.
