Pick Your Town
Laconia
Laconia has the most varied roofscape in the region, and roof form drives a metal quote far more than floor area does. A simple gable and a cut-up…
Gilford
Gilford splits between the Belknap slopes and the Winnipesaukee shore, and wind matters as much as snow on the upper half of the…
Meredith
Meredith is camp-conversion country, and converted camps have the most improvised roofs in the region — which is both the challenge and the reason…
Wolfeboro
Wolfeboro has the most architecturally sensitive roofscape in the region, and on a historic house the question is rarely whether metal performs — it…
Moultonborough
Moultonborough has the largest and most complex private roofs in the region, on houses whose owners are mostly not there in February to watch what…
Alton
Alton Bay has the smallest and most tightly packed roofs in the region, and that changes both the work and the price per square…

Sanbornton
Sanbornton is upland and open, which means both more snow and more wind than the sheltered towns closer to the…

Holderness
Holderness is Squam Lake property: complex, frequently seasonal, often built on ledge with exposure that varies enormously from one site to the…
Ashland
Ashland is a compact river village with dense older housing, and density is the practical constraint on most jobs…
