Call (413) 555-0147What wears out roofs in the Pioneer Valley
Ice dams along the eaves
Freeze-thaw cycles in the Connecticut River valley push meltwater under shingles. Massachusetts requires an ice barrier where ice dams have a history of forming.
Heavy, wet snow and falling limbs
The October 2011 nor'easter dropped wet snow on trees still in leaf, and branches came down across Western Massachusetts.
Wind
On June 1, 2011 an EF3 tornado crossed more than six miles of Springfield. Many roofs from that rebuild are now about 15 years old.
Older houses
Victorians, colonials, triple-deckers and mill-era homes often hide board decking, multiple old layers and tired chimney flashing.
Towns covered
Calls from these communities are connected with participating local roofers, subject to contractor availability.

Questions homeowners ask
Is this a roofing company?
No. SpringfieldMARoofing.com is a referral service. When you call, you're connected with an independent local roofing contractor. That contractor, not this website, inspects your roof, provides a proposal and performs any work you agree to.
What kinds of roofing projects is this line for?
Full roof replacement and new roof installation on homes: asphalt shingle, metal and low-slope roofs. If you're not sure whether your roof needs replacing, a contractor can inspect it and explain the options.
Do I need a building permit to replace my roof in Springfield?
Reroofing in Massachusetts generally requires a building permit, and the work must be supervised by someone holding a Construction Supervisor License with the right scope. Your contractor usually pulls the permit. In one of Springfield's local historic districts, a change in roofing material or appearance may also need Historical Commission approval. See our permits and licenses guide.
How do I check a Massachusetts roofing contractor's credentials?
Ask for the contractor's Home Improvement Contractor (HIC) registration number and Construction Supervisor License (CSL) number, then look both up on the Commonwealth's online search. Ask for a certificate of insurance as well.
Can a roof be replaced in the winter?
Yes. Many crews work through Western Massachusetts winters on dry, milder days, but asphalt shingles seal more reliably in warmer weather, and snow and short days can stretch the schedule. Ask the contractor how they handle cold-weather installs.
Which towns does this line cover?
Springfield and nearby Hampden County communities: Agawam, Chicopee, West Springfield, Westfield, Holyoke, Ludlow, Longmeadow, East Longmeadow and Wilbraham.
