Woodruff is a city in Spartanburg County with a 2020 census population of 4,212 and an elevation of about 758 feet. Joseph Woodruff's family appears in church records from 1787, and the post office took its name from his son Thomas. The city was incorporated in 1874, the railroad arrived in 1885 with a turntable that returned trains to Augusta, and cotton oil and textile mills opened between about 1898 and 1907. A Jeffery Manufacturing plant opened in 1962. If you are searching for roofers in Woodruff, SC, a railroad and mill history means older houses.
Woodruff is close to Triple Tree Aerodrome, which hosts the annual Joe Nall Week model airplane event, and its motto is Time Well Spent. Houses near the old railroad and mill sites are from the early twentieth century, while newer homes sit on the outskirts. We have not sourced a median home age for Woodruff, so we do not give one.
We are a referral service, not a roofer. We connect Woodruff homeowners with a vetted, licensed local roofing contractor who inspects the roof and attic for free and puts the price of any roof replacement or repair in writing before work starts.
Early-1900s houses and what a tear-off finds
Houses from the mill boom of 1898 to 1907 are now over a century old. Expect board sheathing in places, multiple roof layers and flashing that has been repaired repeatedly. Price decking per sheet in advance, using the $70 to $100 benchmark on our cost page.
