Pembroke isn’t just a town we serve — it’s home. Our office and shop are at 260 Washington Street, which means when a Pembroke homeowner calls about a leak, we’re often on the roof the same day. We’ve re-roofed homes in nearly every corner of town, from the neighborhoods around Oldham Pond and Furnace Pond to the newer developments off Route 53.
What Pembroke roofs deal with
Most of Pembroke’s housing stock went up between the 1960s and the 1990s — capes, colonials, and split-levels with asphalt shingle roofs that are now on their second or third cycle. The two problems we see most often here are aging three-tab shingles that have outlived their rating, and attic ventilation that was never brought up to modern code, which cooks shingles from below in summer and feeds ice dams in winter. When we quote a Pembroke roof we check ridge and soffit ventilation as part of the estimate, because fixing it at install time costs almost nothing and adds years to the new roof.
Common questions from Pembroke homeowners
Do I need a permit to replace my roof in Pembroke? Yes — a building permit through Pembroke’s building department at Town Hall. We pull it for you as part of every job; it’s included in our quote.
How fast can you get to me? Faster than anyone hauling a crew from Boston or the Cape. We’re based here — estimates in Pembroke usually happen within a day or two of your call, and for storm emergencies we can usually tarp the same day.
What do you install most in Pembroke? Architectural asphalt shingles are the bread and butter, backed by our 50-year material warranty and 15-year workmanship warranty. We also install metal, cedar, and flat rubber roofing for the porches, garages, and additions that don’t take shingles well.
