You’re not looking for the cheapest patch job. You need a roof that protects your home through another New England winter without surprise leaks or ice dam headaches.
When your roof works the way it should, you’re not calling for emergency tarps during storms. You’re not dealing with water stains spreading across your ceiling. You’re not wondering if that small problem is about to become a big insurance claim.
A proper roof repair means the problem gets diagnosed correctly, fixed with quality materials, and backed by a contractor who’s been doing this since 2012. It means your home stays dry, your energy bills don’t spike from air leaks, and you can actually trust that the work will hold up when the next storm rolls through Exeter.
We’re an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor serving Exeter and the seacoast. That certification isn’t just a badge—it means we’ve met strict standards for quality work and customer service that most roofing contractors don’t qualify for.
We’re not a crew that disappears after the deposit clears. We’re licensed, insured, and we’ve built a reputation in Exeter by showing up when we say we will and fixing problems the right way. No upselling services you don’t need, no cutting corners with cheap materials.
Exeter homeowners deal with specific challenges—ice dams from our winters, storm damage from nor’easters, and the need to maintain historic properties correctly. We understand the local permitting process and what it takes to keep your roof performing in this climate.
First, we come out and actually look at your roof. Not a quick glance from the ground—a real inspection to find the source of the problem. Leaks don’t always show up directly below where water’s getting in, so we trace it back to the actual failure point.
Once we know what’s wrong, you get a clear explanation and an honest estimate. If it’s a simple flashing repair, we’ll tell you that. If your roof needs more attention, we’ll walk you through what’s required and why. No pressure, no games.
When we do the work, we use quality materials from brands like Owens Corning and CertainTeed. We handle everything—permits, material delivery, cleanup, timeline coordination. If you’re filing an insurance claim for storm damage, we’ll work with your adjuster to document everything properly.
You’ll know the schedule before we start, and we keep job sites clean. Most repairs are completed quickly, but if we run into hidden damage, you’ll know about it immediately with photos and options for how to proceed.

We handle everything from emergency storm damage to planned repairs. That includes leak repairs, missing or damaged shingles, flashing problems around chimneys and vents, ice dam damage, and structural issues from water infiltration.
Exeter’s weather is tough on roofs. The freeze-thaw cycles we get create ice dams at roof edges when snow melts and refreezes. This backs water up under shingles and into your home. We don’t just patch the ceiling stain—we fix the ventilation and insulation issues that cause ice dams in the first place.
If you’ve got an emergency, we offer same-day tarping to prevent further damage while we schedule the permanent repair. Winter storms don’t wait for business hours, and neither do we when your home is at risk.
For older homes in Exeter’s historic areas, we’re experienced with the specific requirements and materials needed to maintain your property correctly. Metal roofing, slate repairs, and proper ventilation upgrades that don’t compromise your home’s character—we’ve handled it all.
We offer same-day emergency tarping service when you’ve got active water coming into your home. That’s not a marketing line—it means if you call in the morning with a leak, we’ll have someone there that day to get a tarp secured and stop further damage.
The permanent repair gets scheduled as soon as possible after that, usually within a few days depending on weather and material needs. For storm damage, we’ll document everything for your insurance claim while we’re there doing the emergency work.
Winter storms are the worst time for roof problems, but they’re also when leaks happen most. We keep emergency supplies ready and crews available specifically for these situations because waiting three days while water pours into your house isn’t acceptable.
It depends on what caused the damage. Storm damage from wind, hail, or falling trees is typically covered. Gradual wear and tear from an old roof usually isn’t. Insurance companies look at whether the damage was sudden and accidental versus something that developed over time from lack of maintenance.
We work with insurance adjusters regularly and can help document damage properly for your claim. That means photos, measurements, and detailed notes about what failed and why. Most adjusters appreciate working with contractors who know how to provide the information they need.
One important thing—your policy requires you to prevent further damage once a problem occurs. That’s why emergency tarping matters. If you don’t take reasonable steps to protect your home after a leak starts, the insurance company can deny coverage for additional damage that happens while you’re waiting for repairs.
Ice dams form when heat escaping through your roof melts snow, and that water runs down and refreezes at the cold roof edge. The ice builds up, creating a dam that forces water back up under your shingles. That’s when you get leaks, water damage, and those huge icicles hanging off your gutters.
The real fix isn’t just removing the ice—it’s addressing why your roof is warm enough to melt snow in the first place. That usually means improving attic insulation to keep heat inside your home and upgrading ventilation so cold air can flow under the roof deck.
We also look at things like bathroom and kitchen exhaust vents that dump warm, moist air into your attic. In Exeter’s climate, these issues show up every winter. A proper ice dam solution combines immediate removal when needed with long-term fixes to insulation and airflow so the problem doesn’t keep coming back every time it snows.
Most straightforward repairs—replacing damaged shingles, fixing flashing, sealing a leak source—take one to two days once we’re on site. That includes prep, the actual repair work, cleanup, and a final inspection to make sure everything’s sealed correctly.
Larger repairs involving structural damage, extensive ice dam problems, or work that requires permits take longer. We’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront based on what your specific situation requires. Weather plays a role too—we can’t install certain materials in freezing temperatures or during rain.
If we discover additional damage once we open things up (which happens sometimes with water infiltration), we stop and walk you through what we’ve found before proceeding. You’ll get photos, an explanation of the problem, and options for how to address it. We don’t surprise you with bills for work you didn’t approve.
Roof repair makes sense when the damage is localized and the rest of your roof is in decent shape. If you’ve got a few damaged shingles from a storm, a flashing leak, or ice dam damage in one area, repair is usually the right call and costs significantly less than replacement.
Replacement becomes necessary when your roof is near the end of its lifespan (most asphalt shingle roofs last 20-25 years), when damage is widespread, or when you’re dealing with multiple leak points that indicate systemic failure. Sometimes a roof looks okay from the ground but has extensive hidden damage from years of water infiltration.
We’ll be straight with you about which situation you’re in. If a repair will buy you several more years, we’ll tell you that. If we’re looking at a roof that’s going to need replacement soon anyway and repair is just throwing money at a temporary fix, we’ll tell you that too. The inspection gives us enough information to make an honest recommendation based on what’s actually happening with your roof.
Yes, and we understand the specific requirements that come with working on historic properties in Exeter. These homes often have architectural details, specific material requirements, or historic district guidelines that need to be followed. We’ve worked with the local permitting process and know what’s required.
Historic homes also tend to have different roofing systems—slate, metal, or older wood construction—that require specialized knowledge to repair correctly. You can’t just slap standard asphalt shingles on a Victorian home and call it done. The materials need to match the original construction, and the repair methods need to preserve the home’s integrity.
We source appropriate materials and work with the craftsmanship these homes deserve. That might mean custom flashing, matching existing slate, or repairing metal roofing systems that most contractors won’t touch. The goal is fixing the problem while maintaining your home’s character and meeting any historic preservation requirements that apply in your area.
