Professional South Ryegate Roofing Contractor. GAF Certified

Full tear-off down to the decking, inspect every board, replace what's rotten, and install a complete roofing system from ice and water shield up. Most residential jobs finished in 1-2 days.

Step flashing at chimney walls is the number one leak source we see in South Ryegate. Improper step flashing causes roof leaks. It's that simple. We install new step flashing with a chimney cricket for proper water diversion, sealed with Geocel tripolymer sealant. Fix it once, fix it right.

HAAG Certified Inspector on every storm claim we handle in South Ryegate. HAAG certification is the insurance industry standard for forensic roof inspection. Adjusters trust our reports. We document hail hits per square, wind creasing, and granule displacement. FM 4473 hail resistance ratings determine whether your roof qualifies for full replacement or spot repair.

A new roof installation starts with getting the specs right. Roof pitch determines your material options. Attic space determines ventilation needs. Local code determines underlayment requirements. We handle all of that before the first shingle goes on.

Corrugated metal and R-panel are cost-effective options for barns, detached shops, and covered patios in South Ryegate. We install 29-gauge and 26-gauge corrugated with exposed fasteners using neoprene washer screws. For homes, we recommend 24-gauge standing seam with concealed fasteners. Cleaner look, no exposed fastener maintenance. DaVinci composite shake and slate profiles give you the metal longevity with a traditional Vermont aesthetic.

Three-tab shingles are cheaper upfront but they don't hold up like architectural. We recommend them for sheds, detached garages, and rental properties where budget matters more than aesthetics. For your South Ryegate home? Go architectural.

PVC roofing membrane for South Ryegate restaurants, commercial kitchens, and any rooftop near grease exhaust. PVC resists animal fats and chemical exposure that destroys TPO and EPDM. We install IB Roof Systems and Duro-Last PVC with heat-welded seams and custom-fabricated accessories. Built-up roofing (BUR) with 3-4 plies of fiberglass felt in hot asphalt is still the longest-proven flat roof system with a 30+ year track record in Vermont.

Your commercial roof is protecting your inventory, your equipment, and your employees. We do annual inspections for South Ryegate business owners. Catch small problems before they become $50,000 problems.

Clogged gutters cause fascia rot. We see it on every other house in South Ryegate. We install new gutters with proper pitch, adequate downspout capacity, and optional gutter guards if you're done cleaning them twice a year.

Infrared moisture scanning available for South Ryegate commercial and flat roof inspections. Thermal imaging locates trapped moisture in the insulation layer without cutting core samples. We use Flir E8 cameras to map wet areas, then core sample only the suspect zones to confirm. Saves time, reduces disruption, and gives you a precise repair scope instead of a guess.

After we tarp and secure your roof, we document everything for insurance purposes. Photos, measurements, damage descriptions. Your adjuster gets a professional report, not a handwritten note.

Skylights bring natural light into rooms that don't have it. Bathrooms, hallways, closets. We install VELUX and Fakro fixed and vented skylights with proper flashing kits designed for asphalt shingle roofs.
