This directory holds a single roofing listing for Cowpens, South Carolina. It is an address and contact record — no Google rating has been matched to it.
The listing is recorded in Spartanburg County. Roofing permits and inspections are issued locally rather than by the state, so a re-roof in Cowpens goes through Spartanburg County or the municipality's own building department, whichever holds jurisdiction at the property.

Licensing for roofers working in Cowpens
South Carolina does not licence roofers as a trade at every job size. A state contractor credential becomes necessary once a project reaches $500, and it is issued by the South Carolina Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation.
Below that figure a Cowpens roofer needs no state licence — but the threshold is about state licensure only. It never exempts the work from a permit and an inspection through Spartanburg County or the city.

National reference bands, not quotes and not local numbers. Local labor rates, permit fees and access all move them.

* The most recent data year is partial. NOAA publishes storm reports on a rolling basis and the final months are still being processed, so a low count in the last year is not evidence of a quiet year. The curated archive behind these counts runs through May 31, 2026; anything later sits in the preliminary block below.
Notable events in the archive
- Feb 6, 2020 -- Tornado (EF1) -- $10.00M property damage reported
- Oct 23, 2017 -- Thunderstorm Wind (65 kt gust) -- $10K property damage reported
- Oct 23, 2017 -- Tornado (EF2) -- $1.00M property damage reported
- Mar 21, 2017 -- Hail (Softball+ hail, 3.00 in)
Selected by the dataset’s own rule rather than by editorial choice: the largest hail, the peak wind gust, the strongest tornado and the two costliest events by recorded property damage, deduplicated and newest first. Any dollar figure above is NOAA’s recorded estimate for that one event.
Preliminary — not yet in the permanent archive
26 preliminary storm reports have been filed for Spartanburg County since June 1, 2026: 26 thunderstorm wind events.
Preliminary reports covering 2026-05-31 onward come from National Weather Service storm reports filed as events occur. They have not yet been through the quality-control review that produces the permanent archive, and individual reports may later be revised, combined or withdrawn. NOAA Storm Prediction Center storm reports.
What these counts cover. County figures count events NOAA recorded against a county (hail, thunderstorm wind and tornadoes). High wind, winter storms, ice storms, blizzards, heavy snow, hurricanes and tropical storms are recorded against National Weather Service forecast zones rather than counties, so they are reported at state level instead. Counts reflect events that were observed and reported.
“Significant” on this page means an event meeting any one of three tests: hail 1.00 in across or larger, a wind gust of 58 kt or more (the National Weather Service severe thunderstorm criterion), or any tornado. It is a severity definition used by this dataset and is not an official NOAA classification.
The damage figure. $11,352,000 is the sum of NOAA’s recorded property-damage estimates across every event in Spartanburg County over the period — a county total, not a figure for any one property, any one building or any one claim. NOAA records these figures as estimates made at the time of reporting. They are not adjusted for inflation, and they are frequently absent or zero — a zero means nothing was recorded, not that nothing was damaged.
Source. Archived figures come from the NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information Storm Events Database, covering 2016 through May 31, 2026. Anything after that date comes from NOAA Storm Prediction Center preliminary storm reports and is labelled preliminary wherever it appears. Both are US Government works in the public domain.
