Quick Answer
Looking for a roofer in Newbury, MA?
Merrimack Valley Roofing has worked on Newbury, MA homes and commercial buildings since 1976. Family-run, GAF certified, fully licensed and insured. Services include residential and commercial roofing, gutters, ice and snow removal, storm damage inspections, and siding. 24-hour emergency response.
The Newbury roofer who picks up the phone.
Newbury runs from Plum Island and the Parker River marshes inland along Route 1 and Route 1A, next to Newburyport, with a mix of coastal cottages, historic homes, and newer inland construction. Coastal wind and salt air are hard on roofs here, so flashing, ventilation, and gutter drainage matter as much as the shingles.
We work the whole roof system, not just the shingle. Decking, ice and water shield, attic ventilation, flashing, gutter pitch. The leak you see is rarely directly under the failure. We trace it back to the real problem before recommending anything.
If your roof needs replacing, we'll tell you. If it doesn't, we'll tell you that too. We work with builders and developers across the Valley on repeat projects.
What roofing services do you offer in Newbury?
We inspect the whole roof system before recommending anything. Decking, flashing, valleys, ventilation, gutters, and the shingles themselves all get a look.
Residential Roof Replacement
Tear-off, deck check, ice and water shield at the eaves and valleys, proper ventilation, new shingles, manufacturer-backed warranty. The selected roof system, written warranty terms, and expected schedule are discussed at the estimate.
See residential roofing →Roof Repair & Leak Diagnosis
Single-spot leaks, chimney flashing failure, pipe boot replacements, storm-damaged shingles. We trace the leak back to the actual failure point, not the spot where the water shows up.
Talk about a repair →Commercial & Flat Roofs
EPDM rubber, low-slope membrane, edge metal, penetrations sealed. Small commercial in Newbury, multifamily, additions, garages. We handle seams, drains, and long-term maintenance access.
See commercial roofing →Gutters & Drainage
Seamless aluminum or copper, properly pitched and sized for the roof above them. We check drainage, overflow points, and the condition of the fascia when assessing the roofline.
See gutter services →Ice & Snow Removal
Roof snow and ice dam removal for New England winter conditions. We assess the roof, access, and ice buildup before choosing an approach suited to the property.
See ice & snow removal →Siding Installation & Repair
If the roof needs replacing, the siding around the rake and the soffit usually needs attention too. Vinyl, fiber cement, repairs around new chimneys and dormers. Done together so the trim lines match.

Roof replacement questions from Newbury, MA homeowners
Do I need a full roof replacement, or can it be repaired?
If you've got curling shingles across the whole roof, granules washing into the gutters, recurring leaks in more than one spot, or a roof past 20 years old, you're probably looking at a replacement. Single-area leaks, flashing failures, pipe boot replacements, or storm-damaged sections can usually be repaired. We inspect the decking and flashing before we tell you which one it is. If a repair is a sound option, we'll explain its scope and the condition of the surrounding roof.
How long does a roof replacement take in Newbury, MA?
The schedule depends on roof size, material, access, weather, and any damaged decking found during the work. We discuss the expected work schedule at the estimate and explain changes if hidden conditions affect it.
How much does a new roof cost in Newbury, MA?
The estimate depends on roof size and pitch, access, existing layers, decking condition, flashing, valleys, penetrations, ventilation, and the selected roof system. We inspect the property and provide a written scope and estimate before work is scheduled.
Will the crew clean up after themselves?
Yes. Tarps cover the landscaping while we work. A magnet rolls the lawn for nails when we're done. The trailer leaves with the old roof. You shouldn't be picking up debris the next morning, and no one should be pulling 200 nails out of the yard a week later.
What's the warranty?
Materials get a manufacturer-backed lifetime warranty through GAF. Our workmanship and materials are covered under a 14-year warranty. Paperwork is in your hands before we drive away. Family-run since 1976, so the warranty isn't from a company that disappears next spring.
Do you handle storm damage and insurance claims?
We document the damage with photos and a written assessment for your insurance carrier. The claim is between you and your insurer, but we'll give you the documentation you need to support it.
Are you licensed and insured?
Merrimack Valley Roofing is fully licensed and insured. Ask for the applicable license and insurance documentation before work is scheduled.
