You stop worrying about the next rainstorm. You’re not climbing into the attic with a flashlight checking for new water stains. You’re not dealing with that musty smell that shows up after every heavy rain.
A proper roof repair means the problem is gone—not just covered up until next season. It means the shingles that blew off in that last windstorm are replaced with materials that can handle New Hampshire weather. It means ice dams don’t turn into interior water damage because we actually addressed the ventilation issue causing them.
When the work is done right, you get back to not thinking about your roof at all. That’s the point. Your home stays dry, your belongings stay protected, and you’re not burning money on temporary fixes that fail six months later.
We’ve been handling home repairs and roofing work in the Methuen area and throughout southern New Hampshire for over a decade. We’re an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor, which means we meet their standards for quality and reliability—not just ours.
New Ipswich homeowners deal with specific challenges. Over 35% of homes in New Hampshire are more than 50 years old, and this area sees heavy snow loads, ice buildup, and the kind of temperature swings that crack shingles and cause real structural problems. We’ve seen what happens when contractors who don’t understand local conditions try to patch things up.
Our focus is quality work that holds up. We don’t cut corners to come in cheaper than the next guy, because you’ll pay for that later in callbacks and re-repairs. We’d rather do it once and do it right.
First, we come out and actually look at your roof. Not a five-minute glance from the driveway—a real inspection where we identify all the damage, not just the obvious stuff. We check for storm damage, missing shingles, ventilation issues, and anything else that’s going to cause problems down the road.
Then we tell you what needs to be fixed and why. No upselling, no scare tactics about your roof collapsing next week. Just straight information about what’s wrong and what it takes to fix it properly. If your insurance might cover it, we’ll document everything the way adjusters need to see it.
Once you’re ready to move forward, we schedule the work and show up when we say we will. Our crews handle the repairs with the same materials and methods we’d use on our own homes. We clean up when we’re done, and we make sure you’re completely satisfied before we consider the job finished.
If it’s an emergency—active leaks, structural concerns—we prioritize getting someone out fast. Usually within 2-4 hours during business hours, with tarps and materials to stop immediate damage while we plan the full repair.
Ready to get started?
You get a complete damage assessment before any work starts. We’re looking at the whole picture—what caused the problem, what it damaged, and what else might fail soon because of it. That’s how you avoid coming back to the same issue three months later.
The actual repair work uses quality materials. We work with Owens Corning and Mule Hide products because they hold up in New Hampshire weather. That means your repair isn’t the weak point on your roof two winters from now when the next ice dam forms.
New Ipswich sees some serious weather. Heavy snow loads that strain roof structures. Ice dams that form when heat escapes through poor ventilation. Wind that rips shingles off if they’re not installed correctly. Rain that finds every gap and crack. We account for all of that when we’re doing repairs, because a fix that works in a milder climate fails here.
You also get help with insurance claims if that’s relevant. We know what documentation adjusters need, and we’ve got a solid track record getting claims approved. That takes some of the hassle off your plate when you’re already dealing with damage.
For actual emergencies—active leaks, structural damage, anything that’s causing immediate harm to your home—we typically respond within 2-4 hours during business hours. Our trucks carry tarps and basic repair materials, so we can stop the immediate damage while we assess what’s needed for a permanent fix.
Not every repair is an emergency, and we’re honest about that. If you’ve got a few missing shingles but no active leak, that’s urgent but not same-day critical. We’ll get you scheduled quickly, usually within a few days, but we’re not going to pretend it’s a crisis to jump your place in line.
The key is calling as soon as you notice a problem. Storm damage doesn’t get better on its own, and small issues turn into expensive ones fast when water gets involved. Even if you’re not sure how serious it is, it’s worth having us take a look.
We handle everything from missing shingles and wind damage to ice dam problems and structural issues from heavy snow loads. New Hampshire weather is tough on roofs, and we’ve seen pretty much every type of damage it can cause.
Storm damage is common—shingles torn off by wind, punctures from falling branches, leaks that start after heavy rain. Ice dams are another big one, especially on older homes where ventilation wasn’t designed to prevent them. We also deal with the long-term wear that comes from temperature swings, where materials expand and contract until they crack.
If your roof is more than 50 years old, you might be looking at age-related failures on top of weather damage. We’ll tell you honestly whether a repair makes sense or if you’re throwing money at a roof that needs replacement. Sometimes a repair buys you a few more years. Sometimes it’s just delaying the inevitable.
It depends on what caused the damage. Most homeowner’s insurance policies in New Hampshire cover storm damage—wind, hail, falling trees, that kind of thing. They typically don’t cover damage from lack of maintenance or normal wear and tear.
The key is documentation. Insurance adjusters need to see clear evidence that a specific weather event caused the damage, not that your roof just wore out over time. We know what they’re looking for, and we document everything properly when we do the initial inspection.
We’ve got a solid track record getting claims approved because we understand the process. We’ll work with your adjuster, provide the documentation they need, and explain what needs to be repaired and why. That doesn’t guarantee approval—that’s up to your insurance company—but it gives you the best shot at coverage. Even if you’re not sure whether your damage qualifies, it’s worth filing a claim and letting the adjuster make that call.
Most repairs take anywhere from a few hours to a full day, depending on what’s involved. Replacing a section of damaged shingles might be done in half a day. Fixing structural damage from a heavy snow load or addressing a complex leak takes longer.
Weather affects the timeline too. We can’t install certain materials in freezing temperatures or during rain, so winter repairs sometimes require temporary protection first, then permanent fixes when conditions allow. That’s just reality in New Hampshire—we work with the weather, not against it.
We’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront based on what needs to be done. If something unexpected shows up once we start work—hidden water damage, rotted decking that wasn’t visible from the outside—we’ll let you know immediately and explain how it affects the schedule. No surprises, no dragging things out unnecessarily.
A repair fixes specific damage while leaving the rest of your existing roof in place. A replacement means tearing everything off and starting over with a completely new roof system.
Repairs make sense when the damage is localized and the rest of your roof is in decent shape. If a storm tore off shingles in one area, or you’ve got a leak in a specific spot, a repair is usually the right call. It’s faster and costs less than replacement.
Replacement makes sense when your roof is old enough that repairs are just buying time, or when damage is widespread enough that fixing it piece by piece doesn’t make financial sense. If your roof is 20+ years old and you’re starting to see multiple problem areas, replacement might actually save you money compared to ongoing repairs.
We’ll be straight with you about which option makes sense for your situation. We’re not going to push a full replacement if a repair will handle it, but we’re also not going to patch up a failing roof just to get a job done when you’d be better off replacing it.
Yes, and older homes are actually a big part of what we do. With over 35% of New Hampshire homes being 50+ years old, we’ve got plenty of experience working with older roof systems and the specific challenges they present.
Older homes often have different roof structures, materials that aren’t used anymore, and ventilation systems that weren’t designed for modern insulation standards. That means repairs require more than just slapping new shingles over old damage. You’ve got to understand how the whole system works and what modifications might be needed to prevent the same problem from happening again.
We also know how to work within New Ipswich’s building codes and permitting requirements. Older homes sometimes need updates to meet current standards when repairs are done, and we handle that process so you don’t have to figure it out yourself. The goal is getting your roof fixed properly while respecting the character and structure of your home.
