Roofing the Midlands since 2011
A West Columbia roofing and gutter company with its own crews, a real shop address, and a professional insurance claims estimator on staff.
Quick answer
Beaver Roofing & Gutters has been roofing the SC Midlands since 2011 from 3190 Leaphart Rd in West Columbia. We run our own crews, hold a 4.9-star rating across 440+ Google reviews, and keep a professional insurance claims estimator on staff — which is why storm claims here get documented in Xactimate instead of guessed at.
Who is Beaver Roofing & Gutters?
Quick answer
A local, licensed roofing and gutter contractor in West Columbia, SC, serving the Midlands and any home within 90 minutes of West Columbia since 2011 with its own crews and in-house claims estimating.
We started in 2011 doing what most small roofing companies do: tear-offs, leak repairs and gutter runs for neighbors around West Columbia and Cayce. What changed the company was storm work. After a few Midlands hail seasons it became obvious that the homeowners losing money were not the ones with bad roofers — they were the ones whose roofers could not read an insurance estimate. So we built the company around that gap.
Today Beaver Roofing & Gutters replaces and repairs roofs, forms seamless aluminum and true copper gutters on site, installs standing seam metal, handles low-slope commercial work, and manages hail and wind claims end to end. Along the way we absorbed the roofing and gutter divisions of Anthony John Construction, which brought restoration, mitigation and abatement-side estimating discipline into a roofing company. Our leadership team is local, and the shop address on this page is a real building you can drive to. Leave it to Beaver!
Why does insurance claim expertise matter in a roofer?
Quick answer
Because the carrier's estimate is written in Xactimate, and if your contractor cannot read or rebut it, you either pay the gap or get a partial roof.
Our estimating team handles insurance claims every day. They are Xactimate and Symbility scope writers experienced with USAA, State Farm, Allstate, Liberty Mutual, Farmers, Nationwide and every major carrier writing in South Carolina, water mitigation, and asbestos and lead abatement scoping. Our estimators do not swing a hammer on your roof — they write and defend the scope, meet adjusters, and file the supplements. That is a full-time job on a storm file, and it is the single biggest reason homeowners end up paying only their deductible.
Who will actually be at my house?
Quick answer
Local crews and office staff whose work shows up in our Google reviews time and again.
Homeowners name our people in reviews, which is the only team page that means anything. Our inspectors and repair techs handle inspections and repairs. Our tear-off and installation crews run the roof jobs. Our office staff keeps claim files and schedules moving, which is why our reviews so often say “I never had to chase anybody.” Our estimating team handles estimating and claims. Everyone on your roof is a Beaver employee, covered by our liability and workers' compensation — never a subcontracted storm crew.

Frequently asked questions
How long has Beaver Roofing been in business?
Since 2011 — first as Anthony John Construction, and under the Beaver name since 2022 — out of the same West Columbia shop. In that time we have grown from a two-truck roofing crew into a full roofing and gutter operation covering the Midlands and any home within 90 minutes of West Columbia.
Are you licensed and insured in South Carolina?
Yes — licensed, fully insured and bonded, with general liability and workers' compensation on every crew member. Certificates go out before work starts, no questions asked.
Do you use your own crews or subcontractors?
Our own Lexington County crews. The same names show up in our reviews year after year because the same people show up on the roofs.
What is the connection to Anthony John Construction?
Beaver Roofing & Gutters absorbed the roofing and gutter divisions of Anthony John Construction, which brought seasoned restoration and abatement-side estimating experience into the company — including the insurance claims expertise that now drives how we document every storm loss.
