Roofing help in Vermont
Vermont's roofs carry heavy snow for months, and many homes are older farmhouses, Capes and converted barns with complex rooflines. Metal roofing is a regional tradition because it sheds snow, and summer storms, including the 2023 floods, have shown how much water a roof and its drainage must handle.

What roofs face in Vermont
- Snow & ice dams
- Heavy rain & moss
Snow shedding
Steep metal roofs are common for good reason. Snow guards above entries and careful placement of chimneys and vents keep sliding snow from causing damage.
Ice dams on older homes
Old farmhouses with little insulation lose heat to the roof deck. Air sealing and insulation upgrades prevent most ice-dam leaks.
Heavy rain and drainage
Intense summer storms test gutters, valleys and flashing. Clear drainage paths and properly sized gutters reduce overflow and fascia rot.
Historic villages
Many Vermont towns have historic village centers with slate and standing seam metal roofs on older homes and churches. Repairing slate and old metal calls for roofers experienced with those materials.
Licensing, permits and contracts in Vermont
