Roofing in New Hampshire

New Hampshire sits in the New England weather pattern, where the heavy snow, the ice dams, and the nor’easters test every roof. The coastal cities face the salt air off the Atlantic, and the inland cities face the colder winters and the freeze-thaw cycles. Roofing in New Hampshire means building roofs for the snow, the ice, and the coast — and we do it in 10 cities across the state.

The Roofing Regions of New Hampshire

The state splits into two main roofing climates, and the roofs need to match each one.

The seacoast — Portsmouth, Dover, and Rochester — faces the salt air off the Atlantic. The salt corrodes the metal and the moisture feeds the algae.

The inland cities — Concord, Nashua, Manchester, Derry, Londonderry, Keene, Merrimack, and Salem — face the colder, snowier winters and the freeze-thaw cycles. The ice-and-water shield at the eaves is essential.

New Hampshire Roofing Considerations

The winter is the dominant force across the state. The heavy snow piles on the roofs and the attic heat melts it unevenly. The ice dams form at the cold eaves and the water backs up under the shingles.

The nor’easters are the second force. The storms off the Atlantic bring the high wind and the heavy rain that test every roof.

The freeze-thaw cycles stress the flashing and the seals. The temperature swings through the winter open the gaps that the spring rain finds.
