Every roofing service, one phone number
Roof problems in the Newton area follow the housing. Slate and copper on older Waban and Chestnut Hill houses, asphalt on mid-century ranches in Needham and Framingham, flat and low-slope sections on triple-deckers around Watertown and Somerville, brick chimneys on pre-1940 houses almost everywhere. Pick the page closest to what you can see, or call and describe it.
Winter shapes the list. Boston averages about 44 inches of snow a year, ice forms at eaves when heat leaks into the attic, and nor'easters and summer thunderstorms bring wind. If you are not sure which service you need, the inspection page is a good place to start.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Which service do I need for a stain on the ceiling?
Start with roof leak repair. A stain is a symptom, and the roofer traces it to the roof, the flashing, a chimney or an ice dam before suggesting anything. If it appeared only in winter, also read about ice dam prevention.
Is every service on this list available in every town?
The call line covers all 27 areas, but a roofer's specialty varies. Slate, cedar and flat membrane work are narrower trades than asphalt, so tell the line what roof you have and you are put through to a contractor who works on it.
Do you list prices for each service?
No. A written quote comes from the roofer after an inspection, and published Massachusetts cost guides disagree with each other by a factor of two or more. The pricing page explains what moves a roof quote.
What if my roof is a mix of materials?
That is common on older houses, where a slate main roof meets a flat porch roof or a metal bay. Describe each part on the call, and ask the roofer to quote the sections separately so you can see where the work and the cost sit.
