Roof Installation, Repair & Replacement in Falmouth, Maine

Trusted by homeowners from Falmouth Foreside to the Route 1 corridor for construction that holds up against the Maine coast

Roofing for Falmouth Homes

We install and repair metal, rubber (EPDM), and asphalt shingle roofing systems, and we'll walk you through which system and underlayment approach makes sense for your property — whether that's a waterfront home on Foreside Road taking direct wind off the bay, or a more sheltered property further inland.

Siding & Exterior Upgrades

Falmouth's older coastal homes and newer construction both come through our shop, and we install vinyl, fiber cement, and traditional wood and cedar shingle siding to match. For classic Foreside-area homes, we pay particular attention to matching the existing coastal New England look while upgrading the performance behind it.

Additions & Remodeling

Falmouth's larger lots support a healthy market for additions and major remodels — primary suite additions, expanded kitchens, and full second-story additions among them. For any project near the water, we build shoreland zoning review into the planning timeline from the start rather than treating it as a surprise partway through design.

New Construction & Home Improvement

Beyond roofing and siding, we handle new structural framing, garages, and the full range of home improvement work — windows, doors, decks, and interior remodeling — for Falmouth homeowners who'd rather manage one contractor than coordinate several trades.

Falmouth, Maine — Frequently Asked Questions

Do you work on homes along the water in Falmouth Foreside, or mostly inland properties? Both. We work throughout Falmouth, from waterfront homes along Falmouth Foreside and Town Landing to properties further inland along Route 1 and Route 100. Homes closer to the bay get extra attention on material selection and flashing detail because of the added salt and wind exposure.

Does being near Casco Bay actually change what materials you'd recommend? Yes. Salt air accelerates corrosion on metal fasteners and components, and wind-driven rain off the bay finds gaps that wouldn't be an issue further inland. For near-shore Falmouth properties, we typically recommend corrosion-resistant fasteners and flashing, and materials rated for coastal exposure.

Will my project need extra permitting because I'm close to the water? Possibly. Maine's mandatory shoreland zoning applies to properties near water bodies statewide, and Falmouth is no exception — projects near Casco Bay, particularly additions or anything that changes a home's footprint, can trigger additional setback and permitting review. We build that into project planning from the start.

I have an older coastal-style home. Can you match the existing look, or will new siding or roofing look out of place? We regularly work on Falmouth's mix of older coastal homes and newer construction, and we plan for matching the existing look —whether that's traditional cedar shingle siding or a roofing profile that fits the home's original character.

What roofing material holds up best for a home exposed to wind off the bay? It depends on your specific site, roof pitch, and exposure, but metal and properly installed asphalt shingle systems both perform well on Falmouth's coastal homes when the underlayment and flashing details are done right. We'll walk you through the options for your property during a site visit.

Do you handle both roofing/siding work and larger additions or remodels? Yes. We handle roofing, siding, additions, new structural framing, and broader home improvement work like windows, doors, decks, and interior remodeling, so Falmouth homeowners can work with one contractor across a full project.

How far in advance should I contact you before I want work started? It depends on the project. Roofing and siding work can often be scheduled within a few weeks depending on the season, while additions and larger remodels — especially anything requiring shoreland zoning review — benefit from starting the conversation several months ahead.

Are you familiar with Falmouth specifically, or do you mostly work in Portland? We're based in Portland but have worked on homes throughout Falmouth for years, including properties with the added complexity of coastal exposure and shoreland zoning.
