Metal roofs, shingle roofs and honest repairs for Danville, VT homeowners. Family owned since 2002, and estimates are always free.
Everything we do on a roof, done by crews who have been doing it the same careful way since 2002.
New skylights set into metal or shingle roofs, with the flashing kit the roof actually calls for rather than a tube of sealant.
Backed out screws, split washers, rust starting at a seam, a panel lifted at the eave. These are our roofs, and most of the time a repair is all it takes.
A metal roof is the one that outlives the mortgage. We install exposed fastener panels and standing seam over solid decking and real underlayment, with around twenty standard colors to choose from.
Rotted fascia and sagging soffit let water and animals in behind the roof edge. We cut the bad wood out and put new in.
Water runs along decking and rafters before it ever drips, so the stain is rarely under the hole. We trace the leak back to where it really starts and fix that.
We repair what the storm actually broke. If that is one slope, we do one slope, and we will not pad an estimate to make a claim look bigger.
When a roof is genuinely finished we replace it, and we say so plainly rather than dressing it up. Metal and shingle priced side by side so you can compare real numbers.
Inspections come free with an estimate. We would rather find the small problem this spring than replace a ceiling for you next winter.
A limb through the roof or panels peeled back overnight needs covering now, not next week. We get it dried in first so the inside of the house stops taking damage.
Churches, shops, barns and small commercial buildings. We have roofed everything from a wood shed to a steeple.
If wind got under your roof once it will try again. We fix the damage and close the edge back up so there is nothing left to catch.
Guards installed as part of a roof job or on their own. Either way we check the hangers and the pitch while we are up there.
Coatings for low slope and older metal roofs that are still sound but weathered. Washed down, refastened, primed at the rust, then coated.
Porch roofs, additions and low slope sections that hold water instead of shedding it. We rework the flashing, seal the seams, and get water moving again.
We still shingle plenty of roofs. Cracked, curled and blown off shingles get replaced, and the valleys and flashing get reworked while we are up there.
Steam and hand work, never a hammer and chisel on your roof. Then we check the eaves for the damage the ice already did.
Small repairs get the same crew and the same care as a full roof. Free estimate, a price in writing, and the work done before the next rain moves in.
Not every hailstorm ruins a roof. We look before we tell you anything, and if the damage is only cosmetic we will say that too.
Careful footwork, matched materials, and flashing done the way it was done when the roof went on.
Waterproofing details on additions, porches and low slope tie ins, where two roofs meet and most leaks quietly begin.
Here is what working with us looks like in Danville: you call, somebody comes out and measures, and you get a written estimate with the panel or the shingle spelled out on it. If you say go, we schedule you and we show up on that day.
The crew tarps the beds, keeps the yard picked up as they go, and runs a magnet over the drive before pulling out. Small things, but they are the ones Danville homeowners still mention a year later.
Why people around Danville call us back and send their neighbors our way.
The same family started this company putting metal roofs on neighbors houses in 2002. It has never been sold, franchised or handed off to a call center.
A few backed out screws or a whole roof off a church — we take both. No job is too small to get the same crew and the same care.
You get a start date and we hold to it. If weather moves your job we call you, rather than leaving you watching the driveway.
Around twenty standard metal colors, and the chart comes out with the estimate so you can hold it up against your siding and shutters before you commit.
Somebody comes out, measures, gets on the roof, and leaves you a written price. No charge, no obligation, and no number that expires if you do not sign today.
Straight answers to what Danville homeowners ask us most often.
For most Danville homes, yes. A metal roof costs more up front than shingles, but it usually outlives two or three shingle roofs, sheds rain and snow better, and does not peel off in a hard wind. We will price metal and shingle side by side so you can compare real numbers instead of guessing.
That is most of what leak work is. Water runs along decking and rafters before it ever drips, so the stain on your Danville ceiling is rarely under the actual hole. We work back to the real entry point, fix that, and check the rest of the roof while we are up there.
Often, yes. Plenty of the Danville roofs we get called to look at need flashing reworked or a section refastened, not a whole new roof. We will tell you honestly which one you are looking at, and if it is repairable we would rather repair it.
Sometimes. If the decking is sound and there is only one layer of shingles, a Danville metal roof can go over the top on purlins. If there is rot underneath or two layers already on, we tear off first — and we will tell you that before you sign, not halfway through.
A metal roof installed properly on a Danville home should give you 40 to 60 years, and standing seam often goes longer because there are no exposed fasteners. Screws and sealants on a panel roof want attention around year 20, which is a small job next to a re-roof.
Plenty of them. Most Danville customers choose from around twenty standard colors, and green, burgundy, bronze, black, gray, tan and barn red are the ones people pick most. We bring the color chart out with the estimate so you can hold it up against your siding.
