Residential Roofing for Washington Homeowners
Most of our Washington work is on homes: 1800s farmhouses near the Green, mid-century capes in the Depot, lake cottages in New Preston and newer builds on the outlying roads. Each one has different needs. The old houses need careful flashing work and decking repair. The lake homes need ice dam protection because they sit empty half the winter. The newer builds mostly need storm repair and ventilation corrections. We handle all of it, from a single missing shingle to a full tear-off, and we treat your property like it is our own driveway we have to back a trailer down.
- Full roof replacement in Washington — We strip to the deck, inspect and replace any rotted sheathing, install ice and water shield at the eaves, and rebuild the roof with GAF or Owens Corning architectural shingles. Most Washington homes take two to four days, and we run a magnetic sweeper for nails before we leave.
- Roof leak repair and diagnosis — Washington leaks usually start at a chimney, a vent boot or a valley and show up somewhere else entirely. We use moisture meters and a hose test to find the real entry point, repair the flashing or shingle field, and verify the fix with a second water test before we call it done.
- Ice dam prevention and repair — If your Washington home gets ice dams every winter, the fix is ventilation and eave protection, not just scraping ice. We correct attic ventilation, install ice and water shield up past the interior wall line, and add heat cable on roofs that keep having problems. Two winters of leaks usually means the roof needs this work.
- Storm damage repair and insurance support — After a summer squall or a winter nor'easter, we tarp any open roof the same day, document the damage with photos and measurements, and work directly with your adjuster. We match existing shingles as closely as the manufacturer allows so the repair blends into the rest of the roof.
