You’re not thinking about your roof until water stains appear on the ceiling or ice dams form every February. By then, what could’ve been a repair becomes a replacement.
A solid roof does more than keep rain out. It cuts your heating bill when insulation stays dry, protects your home’s value when buyers look up during showings, and gives you one less thing to stress about when the forecast calls for heavy snow. Most homes in Lyndeborough were built between 1970 and 2000, which means your shingles are either near the end or past their expected lifespan.
Getting ahead of roof problems means you’re not scrambling to find a roofing contractor during storm season when everyone else is calling too. You’re scheduling on your terms, comparing options without pressure, and avoiding the premium prices that come with emergency repairs. That’s the difference between reacting and planning.
We started as a general contractor serving Massachusetts and expanded into New Hampshire because the work speaks for itself. We’re an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor, which isn’t handed out freely—it requires meeting strict standards for quality and reliability.
Lyndeborough homeowners deal with specific challenges: older housing stock, harsh winters, and limited contractor options in a small town. You need someone who shows up when they say they will, gives you a straight answer about what your roof actually needs, and doesn’t disappear after the deposit clears. We’ve been handling roofing projects across New Hampshire long enough to know what works here and what doesn’t.
You’re not getting a sales pitch. You’re getting an assessment, a timeline, and work that holds up when the next nor’easter rolls through.
First, we come out to look at your roof. Not from the ground with binoculars—we get up there, check the shingles, flashing, ventilation, and decking. You get photos of what we find and a breakdown of what needs attention now versus what can wait.
If you’re moving forward, we schedule the work around your timeline and New Hampshire’s weather. Our crews show up on the day we commit to, handle all the tear-off and disposal, install your new roofing system, and clean up like we were never there. We assign a project manager to your job so you’re not calling a general number hoping someone knows what’s happening with your house.
After installation, we walk the property with you, answer your questions, and make sure you understand your warranty coverage. Most roofing projects in Lyndeborough take two to four days depending on size and complexity. You’ll know the timeline before we start, and we’ll tell you immediately if weather pushes anything back.
Ready to get started?
We handle full roof replacements, storm damage repairs, and roof maintenance for homes across Lyndeborough. That includes asphalt shingle systems, metal roofing installations, and emergency leak repairs when you can’t wait for a scheduled appointment.
New Hampshire requires roofs that handle freeze-thaw cycles, ice damming, and wind-driven rain. We install ice and water shield in valleys and along eaves, ensure proper attic ventilation to prevent moisture buildup, and use materials rated for this climate. Lyndeborough sits in a zone where winter temperatures regularly drop below freezing and summer heat can push shingles past their tolerance—your roofing system needs to handle both extremes.
You’re also getting transparent pricing before work starts. We break down material costs, labor, disposal fees, and any additional work like replacing damaged decking or upgrading ventilation. No surprises when the final bill comes. If your home was built before 1990, there’s a good chance you’ll need some decking repair once we pull off the old shingles—we’ll know during the inspection and include it in the estimate.
If your roof is under 15 years old and you’re seeing isolated damage—a few missing shingles after a storm, a small leak in one area, flashing that’s come loose—repair usually makes sense. You’re fixing the problem without replacing material that still has life left.
Once your roof hits 20 years or you’re seeing widespread issues like curling shingles, granule loss across multiple sections, or leaks in different areas, replacement becomes the better investment. Repairs start adding up fast, and you’re still left with an aging system that’ll need more attention soon. Most asphalt shingle roofs in New Hampshire last 20 to 25 years depending on installation quality and weather exposure.
We’ll tell you honestly which direction makes sense for your situation. If repairs buy you another five years and you’re planning to sell, that might be the right call. If you’re staying long-term and the roof’s near the end, replacement saves you from repeating this conversation in two years.
Most full roof replacements in Lyndeborough run between $8,000 and $18,000 depending on size, pitch, material choice, and how much decking needs replacement. A straightforward ranch with asphalt shingles sits on the lower end. A two-story colonial with steep angles and metal roofing pushes higher.
You’re paying for materials, labor, disposal of old roofing, and any structural repairs we find once the old roof comes off. Homes built in the ’70s and ’80s sometimes have decking that’s deteriorated from decades of moisture exposure—you won’t know until we’re into the tear-off. We include a contingency line item in estimates so you’re not blindsided if we find issues.
Financing options exist if you’d rather spread payments out. Some homeowners use insurance claims if storm damage triggered the need for replacement. We can work with your insurance adjuster to document damage and make sure your claim covers what it should.
Most residential roof replacements in Lyndeborough take two to four days from start to finish. Day one is tear-off and disposal—we strip the old roofing down to the decking, replace any damaged boards, and get the roof weather-tight with underlayment. Days two and three are installation of your new roofing system. Final day is detail work, cleanup, and inspection.
Weather can extend timelines. We don’t install roofing in rain or when temperatures drop too low for shingle adhesive to seal properly. If the forecast changes mid-project, we’ll make sure your roof is protected and pick back up when conditions improve.
You can stay in your home during the work. It’s loud when we’re tearing off old shingles and nailing down new ones, but it’s not unsafe. We recommend moving cars out of the driveway and keeping kids and pets inside while we’re working. Most homeowners leave for the day and come back to a finished roof.
Yes. We document storm damage, provide detailed estimates for your insurance company, and work with adjusters who come out to inspect your roof. Insurance claims can be frustrating—adjusters sometimes lowball damage or deny coverage for issues that clearly resulted from the storm.
We’ve handled enough claims to know what documentation insurance companies require and how to present damage in a way that supports your claim. That includes photos with measurements, material specifications that match your policy coverage, and line-item breakdowns of repair costs. If your adjuster pushes back on something we know is legitimate damage, we’ll advocate for you.
Your deductible applies to the claim total. If your roof replacement costs $12,000 and your deductible is $2,500, insurance covers $9,500 and you pay the rest. We collect your deductible and any non-covered items—insurance sends their portion directly to you, and you pay us once the check clears. Some contractors offer to “cover your deductible,” which is insurance fraud. We don’t do that.
Asphalt shingles are the most common choice in Lyndeborough because they handle freeze-thaw cycles well, come in multiple styles and colors, and cost less than most alternatives. Architectural shingles last longer than three-tab and look better—expect 25 to 30 years with proper installation and ventilation.
Metal roofing is growing in popularity because it lasts 50+ years, sheds snow effectively, and reflects heat in summer to lower cooling costs. Upfront cost is higher—usually double what asphalt runs—but you’re not replacing it again. Metal works especially well on steeper roofs where snow accumulation causes problems.
Slate and tile look great but add significant weight to your roof structure. Most homes in Lyndeborough weren’t built to support that load without structural reinforcement. If you’re set on slate or tile, we’ll need an engineer to assess your framing first. For most homeowners, high-quality architectural shingles or metal roofing deliver the best balance of performance, longevity, and cost.
Emergency repairs—yes. Full replacements—it depends on temperature. If you’ve got an active leak in January, we’ll get up there, identify the source, and make temporary or permanent repairs to stop water from coming in. That might mean sealing around flashing, replacing damaged shingles, or installing a tarp until temperatures allow for proper repair.
Asphalt shingles need temperatures above 40°F to seal correctly. The adhesive strips on the back of each shingle bond to the layer below when warmed by the sun—that doesn’t happen reliably in freezing weather. We can install shingles in cold weather using special techniques, but it’s not ideal and we’ll tell you that upfront.
If your roof fails in winter and needs full replacement, we’ll make it weather-tight with temporary protection and schedule the replacement for early spring. Most insurance companies understand weather limitations and won’t penalize you for waiting until conditions allow for proper installation. You’re better off waiting a few months than rushing a replacement that doesn’t perform because it was installed in 20-degree weather.
