Expert Roofing for Sumter & the Shaw AFB Community

Sumter is one of South Carolina's most established cities, located about 45 miles east of Columbia. As home to Shaw Air Force Base — one of the largest military installations in the Southeast — Sumter has a vibrant community built around both its historic downtown and the military families who cycle through the area. The city's housing stock reflects that diversity, from century-old homes near downtown Sumter to suburban developments along Patriot Parkway and the neighborhoods surrounding Shaw AFB.

Military families make up a significant portion of Sumter's homeowner base, and their roofing needs are unique. Many purchase homes near the base knowing they may PCS in three to five years — which means the roof needs to be in excellent condition for resale and VA appraisal. Landlords renting to military tenants need dependable roofing that withstands the elements and requires minimal maintenance between tenant turnover. Whatever your situation, Sands Roofing & Construction has the experience to deliver the right solution.

As the Midlands' only TAMKO Diamond Elite contractor, we bring Sumter homeowners access to premium roofing materials, extended warranty coverage, and factory-certified installation that other contractors in the area simply cannot offer. Our warranties are transferable, adding real value when it comes time to sell.

Sumter Roofing FAQs

Most residential roof replacements in Sumter range from $8,000 to $18,000 depending on the size of the home, roof pitch, material selected, and whether the existing decking needs repair. Sumter has a wide range of housing, from compact homes near Shaw AFB to larger properties in the suburbs, so costs vary accordingly. As the Midlands' only TAMKO Diamond Elite contractor, we offer premium shingle options at competitive prices backed by our Best Price Guarantee. Every estimate is free and comes with no obligation.
Absolutely. We understand the unique needs of military families in Sumter. Whether you own a home near Shaw Air Force Base and need a roof that will last through your time at the installation, or you are a homeowner renting to military tenants and want to protect your investment, we have you covered. For homeowners preparing for a PCS move, a new roof or documented maintenance plan can significantly increase your home's resale value. We also work with VA loan inspectors and understand the roof condition requirements for VA appraisals. Our warranty coverage is transferable, which adds real value when it comes time to sell.
Sumter County sits in the heart of South Carolina's coastal plain, which means it experiences intense summer heat, high humidity, frequent thunderstorms, and occasional hail. These conditions accelerate shingle wear, promote algae and moss growth, and put roofing materials under constant stress. The area is also in the path of tropical systems that track inland from the coast, bringing heavy rain and sustained winds. We recommend algae-resistant TAMKO Heritage shingles with enhanced wind ratings for Sumter homes, along with proper ridge and soffit ventilation to manage the persistent humidity. Schedule a free roof inspection to see how your roof is holding up to Sumter's demanding climate.
