You stop worrying every time it rains. No more buckets in the hallway, no more stains spreading across your ceiling, no more wondering if that drip is going to turn into something worse.
A solid roof repair means your home stays dry when the next storm rolls through. It means your energy bills don’t spike because heat isn’t escaping through damaged shingles or poor flashing. It means you’re not scrambling to file an insurance claim after the next nor’easter hits Arlington.
You get back to normal. Your home protects you the way it’s supposed to. And if you’re planning to sell down the line, you’ve got documentation showing the work was done right—by a licensed contractor who knows Massachusetts building codes and actually shows up when they say they will.
We’ve spent nearly two decades handling roof repairs across Arlington and the Greater Boston area. We’re an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor, which means we’ve met strict standards for quality and reliability—not just once, but consistently.
We’re locally owned, fully licensed, and insured with both Construction Supervisor and Home Improvement Contractor credentials. That’s not just paperwork. It’s proof we’re accountable to Massachusetts regulations and to you.
Arlington’s mix of historic and contemporary homes means every roof is different. We’ve worked on them all—steep slopes, flat sections, asphalt shingles, older materials that need careful handling. We know how New England weather beats up roofs, and we know how to fix them so they last.
First, we come out and inspect your roof. Not just the obvious problem spot—we check the whole system. Flashing, shingles, underlayment, ventilation. We’re looking for what caused the issue and what else might fail soon.
Then we explain what we found. No jargon, no upselling. Just a clear breakdown of what needs fixing now, what can wait, and what it’ll cost. If you’re dealing with insurance, we document everything and work with your adjuster.
Once you approve the work, we schedule it fast—especially if it’s an emergency. We use quality materials, follow Massachusetts building codes, and clean up when we’re done. You get a detailed invoice and warranty information. If something doesn’t look right to you, we fix it. That’s the job.

We handle leak repairs, storm damage, missing or damaged shingles, flashing issues, ice dam damage, and wind damage. If your roof is letting water in or losing pieces, we can fix it.
Arlington sees harsh winters and heavy storms. Ice dams are common here—they form when heat escapes through your roof, melts snow, and refreezes at the edges. That backup forces water under your shingles and into your home. We repair the damage and can address the ventilation or insulation issues that caused it.
Storm damage is another big one. After a nor’easter or high winds, you might have missing shingles, torn flashing, or punctures from falling branches. We respond quickly because the longer you wait, the more damage water does to your decking and interior.
We also work with insurance claims. We know what adjusters need to see, and we provide the documentation to back up your claim. Most roof repairs in this area run between $2,000 and $5,000 depending on the damage, but we’ll give you an honest estimate before we start.
We prioritize emergency calls and aim to get someone out the same day or within 24 hours, depending on the situation. If your roof is actively leaking or you’ve got storm damage that’s exposing your home to the elements, that’s an emergency—and we treat it like one.
After a major storm, response times can stretch a bit because everyone’s calling at once. But we’re local, we’re established, and we’re not going to disappear on you like the out-of-town crews that show up after every big weather event.
When we arrive, we’ll do temporary repairs if needed to stop further damage, then schedule the full fix as soon as possible. Speed matters, but so does doing it right.
It depends on the extent of the damage and the age of your roof. If the problem is isolated—a few damaged shingles, a flashing issue, a small leak—repair makes sense. It’s faster and costs a fraction of a full replacement.
But if your roof is over 20 years old, has multiple problem areas, or the damage is widespread, replacement might be the smarter move. Pouring money into repairs on a roof that’s near the end of its lifespan usually doesn’t pay off.
We’ll be honest with you about what we see. If a repair will buy you several more years, we’ll tell you. If you’re just delaying the inevitable and wasting money, we’ll tell you that too. Our job is to give you the information you need to make the right call for your situation.
It depends on what caused the damage. Insurance typically covers sudden events like storm damage, fallen trees, or wind that rips off shingles. It usually doesn’t cover wear and tear, poor maintenance, or damage that happened gradually over time.
If you think you have a claim, call your insurance company first and let them know what happened. Then call us. We’ll document the damage thoroughly, take photos, and provide a detailed estimate your adjuster can review.
We’ve worked with plenty of insurance claims in the Arlington area. We know what documentation they need and how to present it. That doesn’t guarantee your claim will be approved, but it helps. And if insurance doesn’t cover it, we’ll still give you a fair price for the repair.
Ice dams form when heat escapes through your roof and melts snow. The water runs down to the colder edges of your roof and refreezes, creating a dam. More meltwater backs up behind it and seeps under your shingles, causing leaks and water damage inside your home.
The immediate fix is repairing the damage—replacing damaged shingles, fixing water-damaged decking or insulation, and addressing any interior damage. But if you don’t fix the root cause, it’ll happen again next winter.
The root cause is usually poor attic insulation or ventilation. Heat shouldn’t be escaping through your roof in the first place. We can assess your attic situation and recommend improvements that’ll prevent future ice dams. It’s an extra step, but it saves you from dealing with the same problem every year.
Most repairs take anywhere from a few hours to a full day, depending on what’s involved. A simple shingle replacement or flashing repair might be done in a couple of hours. A larger repair involving damaged decking or multiple problem areas could take a full day or more.
Weather plays a role too. We can’t do quality roofing work in heavy rain or on icy surfaces. If conditions aren’t safe or won’t allow the materials to properly seal, we’ll reschedule. Rushing a roof repair in bad weather just creates more problems.
We’ll give you a realistic timeline when we assess the damage. If it’s an emergency and we need to do temporary work first, we’ll explain that upfront. The goal is to get your roof watertight and solid as quickly as we can without cutting corners.
First, contain the water inside your home. Put down buckets, move furniture and valuables out of the way, and soak up any standing water. If water is dripping from a ceiling fixture, turn off the electricity to that area.
Then call us. Don’t wait to see if it gets worse—it will. Even a small leak can cause serious damage to your decking, insulation, and interior walls if left alone. Water damage adds up fast, and the longer it sits, the more expensive the fix becomes.
If you can safely get on your roof, you can try to locate the source and put down a tarp as a temporary measure. But don’t take risks. If it’s icy, steep, or you’re not comfortable up there, leave it to us. We’ll get there as quickly as we can and stop the leak properly.
