A small roof leak doesn’t stay small. Water finds its way into insulation, down walls, and into places you won’t see until the damage is done. By then, you’re not just paying for roof repair—you’re dealing with interior damage, mold concerns, and a much bigger bill.
You need someone who can get out there quickly, figure out what’s actually wrong, and handle the repair before it turns into a full replacement. That’s what matters when you’re staring at a water stain on your ceiling or missing shingles after a nor’easter rolled through.
We’ve been doing roof repairs in Salem since 2012. We know how New England weather beats up roofs—ice dams in winter, wind-driven rain in spring, and those random summer storms that rip shingles off in minutes. We also know that most homeowners just want the problem fixed without getting sold a whole new roof they don’t need yet.
Paradise Remodeling Inc is a licensed home improvement contractor serving Salem and the surrounding New Hampshire communities. We’re an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor, which means we meet strict standards for quality and reliability—not just anyone gets that designation.
We handle everything from emergency storm damage repairs to planned maintenance and full replacements. Most of our roof repairs in Salem get done in a day, sometimes two for larger homes. We’re not a fly-by-night crew that disappears after the job.
Salem’s location near the Massachusetts border means you get hit with lake effect weather, highway salt corrosion if you’re near 93 or 28, and the same unpredictable storms that make New England famous. We account for all of that when we assess your roof and recommend repairs.
First, we come out and actually look at your roof. Not from the ground with binoculars—we get up there and inspect the damage, the surrounding area, and anything else that might be contributing to the problem. If you’ve got ice dams forming every winter, that’s a ventilation issue, not just a gutter problem.
We’ll tell you exactly what needs to be fixed and what it’s going to cost. No vague estimates or surprise charges later. If it’s an emergency repair, we prioritize getting it watertight fast, then handle the permanent fix.
Once you approve the work, we schedule it and show up when we say we will. Our crews are supervised, and we assign the right people for your specific job. Most repairs are done in a day. We handle the tear-off, install the new materials, clean up the site, and make sure everything’s sealed properly before we leave.
You get a warranty on the workmanship that lasts as long as you’re in your home, plus the manufacturer warranty on materials. We use Owens Corning and Mule-Hide products—both built for durability in climates like ours.

We handle storm damage from wind, hail, and falling branches. Missing or damaged shingles get replaced with materials that match your existing roof. If flashing around chimneys or skylights is compromised, we reseal or replace it. Leak repairs include tracking down the source—which isn’t always where the water shows up inside—and fixing the underlying issue.
For Salem homeowners dealing with ice dams, we address the root cause. That usually means improving attic ventilation and insulation, not just scraping ice off your gutters every January. Properties near Route 93 or 28 often need corrosion-resistant materials because highway salt accelerates wear on metal components.
We also handle partial roof replacements when a section is damaged beyond repair but the rest of the roof still has life left. If you’re planning to sell in the next few years, we’ll recommend cost-effective solutions that protect your home without over-investing in upgrades you won’t be around to enjoy.
New Hampshire has seen 21 billion-dollar weather disasters since 1980, including 11 winter storms. Your roof takes a beating here. We make sure repairs hold up against whatever comes next.
Most roof repairs in Salem run between a few hundred dollars for minor shingle replacement to a couple thousand for more extensive damage. The cost depends on the size of the damaged area, the materials needed, and how accessible your roof is.
If you’re dealing with storm damage and have homeowner’s insurance, your policy might cover most of the repair cost minus your deductible. We can work with your insurance adjuster to document the damage and provide the necessary estimates.
Emergency repairs to stop active leaks usually cost less upfront because we’re focused on making it watertight quickly. The permanent fix might happen in a second visit once materials are ordered and weather permits. We’ll always give you a clear breakdown before starting work so there’s no confusion about what you’re paying for.
For emergency situations where water is actively coming in, we prioritize getting someone out the same day or next day to tarp or temporarily seal the damage. That stops further water intrusion while we plan the permanent repair.
The permanent fix depends on material availability and weather conditions. Most repairs get scheduled within a few days to a week. If we’re in the middle of a major storm event that hit the whole region, there might be a backlog, but we’ll be straight with you about timing.
Once we start the actual repair work, most jobs are completed in one day. Larger repairs or those requiring custom materials might take two days. We don’t leave your roof exposed overnight—if we can’t finish in a day, we make sure everything’s sealed and protected before we leave.
If the damage is localized to one area and your roof is less than 15 years old, repair usually makes more sense. You’re fixing the problem without the expense of a full replacement you don’t need yet.
If your roof is over 20 years old and you’re starting to see multiple issues—curling shingles, granule loss, frequent leaks in different spots—replacement might actually save you money in the long run. You’ll spend less on repeated repairs and get better energy efficiency and protection.
We’ll assess the overall condition during our inspection and give you an honest recommendation. If you’re planning to sell your house in the next couple years, a repair might be the smarter financial move. If you’re staying put for another decade, replacement could be worth considering. We’re not going to push you toward the bigger job if it doesn’t make sense for your situation.
Ice dams form when heat escapes through your roof, melts snow at the peak, and that water refreezes at the colder eaves. The ice builds up and prevents proper drainage, forcing water under your shingles and into your home.
The real fix isn’t just removing the ice every winter—it’s improving your attic insulation and ventilation so heat stops escaping in the first place. We assess your attic space, identify where heat is leaking, and install proper ventilation systems that keep your roof deck cold enough to prevent melting.
Sometimes the issue is blocked soffit vents or insufficient ridge venting. Other times it’s inadequate insulation on your attic floor. We address the specific cause in your home rather than applying a one-size-fits-all solution. Once the ventilation and insulation are right, ice dams stop forming and you’re not dealing with the same problem every winter.
Yes. You get a workmanship warranty that covers our installation for as long as you live in your home. If something fails because of how we installed it, we come back and make it right at no cost to you.
The materials themselves come with manufacturer warranties—Owens Corning and Mule-Hide both offer strong coverage on their products. Shingles typically carry 25 to 50-year warranties depending on the product line. Flashing, underlayment, and other components have their own coverage terms.
We’ll give you all the warranty documentation after the job is complete. Keep it with your home records—it adds value if you sell, and it protects you if any issues come up down the road. As an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor, we’re held to higher standards, which means you get additional protection beyond what a non-certified contractor can offer.
Architectural asphalt shingles are the most common choice in Salem because they handle freeze-thaw cycles well, shed snow effectively, and come in at a reasonable price point. Owens Corning Duration series shingles are designed specifically for climates with severe weather and temperature swings.
If your property is within a half mile of Route 93 or Route 28, we recommend marine-grade or coated metal components for flashing and trim because highway salt accelerates corrosion on standard materials. That small upgrade prevents rust-through and extends the life of your roof system.
For homes with low-slope sections or areas prone to ice dam formation, we sometimes use ice and water shield underlayment that extends further up the roof deck than standard installation. It’s an extra layer of protection that makes sense given how much snow and ice Salem gets each winter. We’ll recommend what actually works for your specific roof and location rather than just selling you the most expensive option.
