Hubert sits along NC 24 between Jacksonville and Swansboro, an unincorporated part of Onslow County with Camp Lejeune on one side and Queens Creek and Bear Creek running down toward the Intracoastal Waterway on the other. Life Construction & Roofing is based at 632 Court St in Jacksonville, so a Hubert roof is a short drive down NC 24 for our crew. That means a fast inspection, a crew that can come back the same week if the weather turns, and a local company that is still around when you need warranty service.
Hubert homes are a mix: older family houses on big wooded lots, brick ranches off the side roads, and newer subdivisions where many military families live for a few years at a time. The roofs face the same things, though: humid summers, pine needles in the valleys, afternoon thunderstorms, and tropical-storm wind coming in off the water with little to slow it down.
Roof replacement in Hubert
When a roof is past repairing, we replace the whole system, not just the shingles.
- 1. We check the decking, the attic ventilation, the flashing and the drip edge, and we take photos so you can see what we see.
- 2. We strip down to the deck and replace any soft or rotted sheathing. That is common under shaded valleys on wooded Hubert lots.
- 3. New synthetic underlayment, ice-and-water protection in valleys and at penetrations, and new flashing at walls, chimneys and pipe boots.
- 4. We're an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor and TAMKO Pro Gold certified, and our shingle systems carry a 50-year materials warranty. If you're considering metal, see our Hubert metal roofing page.
- 5. We sweep for nails with a magnet across the yard, driveway and beds, then walk the finished roof with you.

Roof repair in Hubert
Not every leak means a new roof. We fix lifted or missing shingles after storms, failed pipe boots, flashing leaks around chimneys and skylights, and damage from fallen limbs. If a repair makes sense, we'll tell you, and we won't push a replacement you don't need. See our roof repair options and storm damage repair.
FORTIFIED roofs and the grant
Hubert is close enough to the coast that wind is the main threat to a roof. As a FORTIFIED installer, we can build your new roof to the FORTIFIED Roof standard: a sealed roof deck, upgraded nailing, and stronger edge details. Eligible homeowners may qualify for a FORTIFIED roof grant of up to $6,000. We'll explain eligibility and the paperwork at your inspection. Learn about FORTIFIED roofs.
Permits in Hubert
Because Hubert is unincorporated, there is no town permit office. Permits and inspections go through Onslow County Planning & Development. Many like-for-like reroofs don't need a building permit under North Carolina law, but structural repairs and larger projects can. Lots near the creeks may also fall under county floodplain rules. We confirm what applies and handle it.
Insurance claims
If a storm damaged your roof, we document it with photos and measurements you can give your adjuster. Read our insurance guide before you file.
