- My Bow home was built in the 90s — what should I expect from a replacement?
- Most 90s-era Bow roofs carry builder-grade 3-tab or early dimensional shingles at or past their realistic NH lifespan. The replacement is usually a clean upgrade story: modern dimensional shingles with stronger wind ratings and warranties, ice-and-water shield at the eaves (code now, often absent then), and new flashing throughout. Suburban colonials and capes here have straightforward rooflines, which keeps labor honest — the estimate itemizes everything before a shingle moves.
- Do you handle the Bow permitting, and does it slow things down?
- We pull the permit on every Bow roof — it’s part of the job, not your homework — and because we work in town regularly, we know the process and it rarely surprises us. Once it’s issued, a typical single-family replacement is days of roof work scheduled around weather. If we open the deck and find soft spots, you get photos and a price before anything is covered up; that’s standard on every A&E roof, in Bow or anywhere.
