You noticed the ceiling stain. Or maybe shingles in your yard after last week’s storm. Whatever brought you here, you’re dealing with something that gets worse every day you wait.
Water doesn’t stay in one spot. A small leak becomes rotted decking. Ice dams turn into structural problems. Missing shingles let moisture seep into insulation, and suddenly you’re looking at mold, energy bills that don’t make sense, and repair costs that could’ve been avoided.
We fix roof damage fast and completely. That means finding what caused the problem, not just patching what you can see. You get a roof that holds up through the next storm, the next freeze-thaw cycle, and the next heavy snow load that hits Hancock. No callbacks. No wondering if it’ll hold.
Paradise Remodeling Inc has spent over a decade working on homes across New Hampshire. We’re an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor, which means we meet manufacturer standards most companies don’t qualify for.
Hancock gets hit with everything: heavy snow loads that stress roof structures, ice dams from freeze-thaw cycles, wind that tears shingles loose. We’ve seen it all, fixed it all, and we know exactly what your roof is up against each winter.
Our crews are licensed, insured, and trained on the specific challenges New Hampshire weather throws at residential roofing. You’re not getting a generic repair crew. You’re getting people who understand what 50 pounds per square foot of snow does to a roof structure.
First, we inspect your roof completely. Not just the obvious damage, but what’s underneath and around it. Leaks rarely start where water shows up inside your home, so we trace it back to the actual entry point.
Then we explain what we found in plain terms. You’ll know what needs immediate repair, what’s causing the problem, and what it’ll cost before any work starts. No surprises, no upselling, no pressure.
Repairs happen fast, especially for emergency situations. We use quality materials that match your existing roof and hold up to New Hampshire weather. Owens Corning and Mule Hide products, installed correctly the first time. Once the repair is complete, we walk you through what we did and answer any questions about maintenance or future concerns.
You get photos of the damage and the completed work. If your insurance is involved, we document everything you’ll need for your claim.
Ready to get started?
Every roof repair starts with a full inspection of the damaged area and surrounding sections. We check for hidden moisture damage, compromised decking, and any structural issues that developed because of the leak or storm damage.
Repairs cover everything from replacing damaged asphalt shingles to fixing flashing around chimneys and vents where leaks commonly start. If ice dams caused the damage, we address the ventilation and insulation issues that let them form in the first place. Hancock homes deal with significant snow accumulation each winter, and your roof needs proper airflow to prevent ice buildup at the edges.
We also handle emergency repairs when storms hit. Missing shingles, wind damage, fallen tree limbs – anything that leaves your roof exposed gets tarped and secured immediately, then permanently repaired as soon as conditions allow. You’re not waiting weeks with a tarp on your roof hoping it holds.
All work is backed by manufacturer warranties on materials and our own guarantee on labor. You get documentation, photos, and a point of contact if anything comes up after we’re done.
For emergency situations, we can get someone out the same day or within 24 hours depending on weather and our current schedule. A tarp goes up immediately if your roof is actively leaking or exposed to the elements.
Permanent repairs usually happen within a few days once we’ve assessed the damage and ordered any materials we don’t have in stock. Simple fixes like replacing a few shingles or resealing flashing can often be completed in one day. Larger repairs involving damaged decking or structural issues take longer, but we’ll give you an exact timeline after the inspection.
Winter repairs are trickier. We can’t install shingles in freezing temperatures because the adhesive won’t seal properly, but we can secure your roof with temporary weatherproofing and complete the permanent fix as soon as temperatures allow. You won’t be left with an open roof through a New Hampshire winter.
Ice dams form when heat escapes through your roof and melts snow. The water runs down to the colder roof edges, refreezes, and creates a dam. More meltwater backs up behind it, and eventually that water finds its way under your shingles and into your home.
The real problem isn’t the ice itself – it’s inadequate attic insulation and ventilation. If your attic is too warm, you’ll keep getting ice dams no matter how many times you clear the ice. We fix this by improving attic ventilation so cold air circulates properly and adding insulation to prevent heat loss from your living space.
Hancock sees enough snow each winter that ice dams are a common issue, especially on older homes that weren’t built with modern insulation standards. Once we address the ventilation and insulation problems, ice dams stop forming. You might still get some ice buildup during extreme cold snaps, but it won’t cause the leaks and damage you’ve been dealing with.
If storm damage or a sudden event caused the problem, yes – file a claim. Wind damage, hail, fallen trees, and ice dam leaks are typically covered. Your insurance company will send an adjuster to assess the damage and determine what they’ll pay for.
Wear and tear from age isn’t covered. If your roof is just old and deteriorating, insurance won’t help. But if a recent storm tore off shingles or a heavy snow load caused structural damage, that’s usually claimable.
We document everything with photos and detailed notes about what’s damaged and what caused it. This helps your claim go smoothly. We’ve worked with insurance adjusters for years and know exactly what they need to see. Some homeowners worry about their rates going up, and that’s a valid concern – but major damage that’ll cost thousands to repair is usually worth claiming. We can give you a repair estimate so you can decide whether to file based on your deductible and the total cost.
Small repairs like replacing a few shingles or resealing flashing usually run a few hundred dollars. Larger repairs involving damaged decking, multiple sections of shingles, or structural fixes can range from $1,000 to $5,000 depending on the extent of the damage.
Ice dam damage often falls somewhere in the middle because we’re not just fixing the immediate leak – we’re addressing the ventilation and insulation issues that caused it. That’s more involved than slapping on new shingles, but it actually solves the problem instead of waiting for it to happen again next winter.
We give you an exact price after inspecting your roof. No ballpark estimates that change once we start working. You’ll know what it costs, what’s included, and how long it’ll take before we touch your roof. If your damage is extensive enough that replacement makes more sense than repair, we’ll tell you that too. Sometimes patching an old roof is just throwing money away when a replacement would cost only slightly more and last another 20 years.
Yes, but with limitations. We can handle emergency repairs year-round – tarping, temporary sealing, securing loose materials. What we can’t do is install asphalt shingles when temperatures drop below freezing because the adhesive strips won’t seal properly.
If you need emergency work in January, we’ll weatherproof your roof immediately so you’re not dealing with leaks or exposure. Then we schedule the permanent repair for spring when temperatures cooperate. This is standard practice for New Hampshire roofing contractors – anyone who tells you they’ll install shingles in 20-degree weather either doesn’t know what they’re doing or doesn’t care that those shingles won’t seal correctly.
Metal roofing and some flat roof materials can be installed in colder weather, so the season matters less for those repairs. But for standard asphalt shingle work, winter means temporary fixes followed by permanent repairs once we hit consistent temperatures above 40 degrees. You won’t pay twice – the temporary work is part of the overall repair cost.
Age is the biggest factor. Asphalt shingle roofs last 20 to 30 years depending on quality and maintenance. If your roof is approaching that range and you’re seeing multiple problem areas, replacement usually makes more sense than patching individual spots.
Widespread damage is another sign. If the last storm damaged shingles across your entire roof, or you’re seeing curling and deterioration in multiple sections, you’re looking at a roof that’s failing overall. Repairing one section won’t help when the rest fails six months later.
We’ll be honest about what makes financial sense. Sometimes a repair buys you another 5 to 10 years, and that’s the right move if you’re not ready for a full replacement cost. Other times, you’d spend $3,000 on repairs for a roof that needs replacing within two years anyway – and in those cases, we’ll tell you to save that money toward a new roof instead. You’re not getting upsold. You’re getting the truth about what condition your roof is actually in.
