Proper Underlayment

Ice and water shield at eaves and valleys. Synthetic underlayment over the full deck. Done right for coastal Massachusetts.

Why Lantern

Lauren's New Roof Was Part of a Full Exterior Project. Jack Handled All of It.

When Lauren had her full exterior renovation done, a new roof was part of the scope. Jack coordinated every piece. That is the advantage of working with a general contractor who knows the whole exterior of your home rather than just one trade.

"Jack and his crew did a great job renovating the outside of my house. Rot repair, chimney removal, new siding, new roof, new exterior doors, and more. I am very happy with the quality of his work and feel confident that it will last for a long time."

FAQs

Roofing Questions Answered

A properly installed architectural shingle roof in Massachusetts typically lasts 25 to 30 years. The key is proper underlayment, correct flashing at all penetrations and valleys, and adequate ventilation. Jack does not skip any of these.

Jack will inspect and give you an honest answer. If the roof has more than 20 to 25 years of life, has multiple layers already, or has widespread granule loss, replacement is usually the better investment. He will tell you which situation you are in.

Important question. Jack specifies shingles with high wind resistance ratings for coastal Massachusetts properties. Standard 3-tab shingles are not appropriate for Gloucester and Rockport. He uses materials rated for the conditions.

Yes. Proper flashing is where most roofs fail over time. Jack's crew details every penetration including chimneys, skylights, vents, and valleys correctly.

Most residential roofs in Gloucester are completed in one to two days. Larger or more complex roofs with multiple valleys and penetrations may take three days. Jack gives you an accurate timeline when he provides the quote.
