Roofs in Tuftonboro
A house closed from October to May has nobody to notice the stain spreading on a ceiling, the drip behind a knee wall, or the ice that built at one eave in January and ran water into the wall for six weeks. The failure is not worse than it would be in an occupied house; it simply runs unchecked for far longer.
That is the strongest honest argument for metal on this frontage, and it is worth stating precisely: not that a metal roof cannot fail, but that snow leaving a roof rather than sitting on it produces fewer of the slow failures that nobody is present to catch.
The frontage roofs themselves are complex — the accumulated geometry of camps that became houses — and sightlines from the water make finish and profile a real consideration.
Tuftonboro Note
On a closed Tuftonboro house, arrange for somebody to look at the building in midwinter. Whatever you roof with, the cost of an unwitnessed failure is the number that actually matters here.
