Roofs in Laconia
The mill-era housing through Lakeport and downtown brings steep gables, dormers and the occasional slate-era pitch — good ground for standing seam, because steep roofs shed well and the panel runs are long and clean. What raises the price is penetrations: chimneys, plumbing stacks and the valleys where a later ell meets the original roof.
The post-war ranch belt is the opposite. Low hip roofs, wide and shallow, with short panel runs and a lot of hip flashing. Those are more work per square foot than the number suggests, and a quote based on footprint alone will be wrong.
The converted cottages around the Weirs and Paugus Bay are the hardest to price sight-unseen. Forty years of additions produce roofs that meet at odd angles, with valleys that were never designed and flashing details that have been patched repeatedly.
Laconia Note
In Laconia, get any quote confirmed against the actual roof rather than the footprint. A cut-up conversion roof and a clean gable of identical area are different jobs, and the difference shows up in valleys and flashing, not in square feet.
