EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.

Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.

Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.

Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.

150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.

Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.

Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.

EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.

150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.

Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.

EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.

Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.

Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.

Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.

Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.

150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.

Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.

150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.

Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.

EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.

03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.

Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.

Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.

Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.

Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.

EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.

Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.

150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.

Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.

EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.

Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.

What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.

Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.

Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.

150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.

Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.

Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.

Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.

Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.

Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03

150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.

Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.

Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.

Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.

EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.

Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.

Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.

Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.

Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.

Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.

150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.

Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.

Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.

Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.

Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.

EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.

Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.

Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.

EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.

Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.

Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.

EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.

Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.

Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.

Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.

Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.

Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.

Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.

Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.

Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.

Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.

Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.

Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.

Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.

Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.

Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.

Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.

Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.

Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.

What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.

Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.

Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
Roofing for Massachusetts — for the home, the triple-decker, and the mill conversion.
Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.

Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.

Massachusetts has more roofing variety in a 90-mile radius than any other NE state. Boston brick triple-deckers. Cambridge Victorian gables. North Shore Federal-style homes. Cape Cod cottages. Western MA farmhouses. The state’s roofing problem isn’t choosing a material — it’s matching the material to the architecture, the climate microzone, and the historic preservation regs.
Coastal MA (Cape, North Shore, South Coast) sees fewer extreme-cold events but more wind and hurricane exposure. Central and Western MA (Worcester, Springfield, Berkshires) sees serious snow and Vermont-level ice-dam risk. The Boston metro area is its own microclimate — heat-island summers, normal NE winters.
Triple-deckers (Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Somerville). Federal-style brick (Boston, Cambridge, North Shore). Cape Cod cottages (Barnstable, Falmouth, Truro). Victorian and shingle-style (Newton, Brookline, Wellesley). Mid-century ranches throughout the western suburbs.
What we see here
Three roofing patterns specific to Massachusetts.
01
Triple-decker flat-roof failures
EPDM rubber roofs from 1990s install era are reaching end-of-life simultaneously across older Boston neighborhoods. We replace with TPO or new EPDM depending on rooftop conditions.
02
Historic preservation constraints
Slate-roofed historic homes in Boston, Cambridge, and the North Shore often have HDC restrictions on visible material substitution. We work within the regs — sometimes that means natural slate; sometimes it means a code-compliant synthetic that passes the HDC review.
03
Coastal wind damage on Cape Cod and Islands
150+ mph hurricane wind ratings required for new Cape roofs. We use 6-nail fastening, hurricane straps in framing where applicable, and class-IV impact-rated shingles for the most exposed sections.
