UnclaimedWhat a good quote should include
Comparable quotes are how you avoid the small-owner upcharge. Ask every pro to cover:
- Roofing system and manufacturer named, not just "new roof"
- Whether the old roof is torn off or overlaid, and who hauls it away
- Allowance for rotted decking, priced per sheet
- Who pulls the permit, and that the permit cost is included
- Workmanship warranty length, separate from the manufacturer warranty
Licensing in Massachusetts
In Massachusetts, roofing work on most buildings falls under the state Construction Supervisor License (CSL) rules, and residential work usually requires Home Improvement Contractor (HIC) registration too. Ask for both numbers and check them with the state.
Permits come from Salem's building department. Plumbing, gas, and electrical work each need their own permit, pulled by the licensed trade doing the work.
Common roofing jobs in Salem
Salem has some of the oldest building stock on the North Shore, including many 19th-century multifamily and mixed-use buildings. Exterior work on a building in one of Salem's local historic districts may need historical commission approval before a permit is issued, so ask any pro whether they've worked in the districts before.
- Full reroofs on flat and low-slope commercial roofs
- Shingle and tile roof replacement on multifamily buildings
- Leak repairs and storm damage
- Roof inspections before buying or insuring a building
