What Seattle roofs deal with
Local conditions shape the right scope.
Seattle's housing stock is older than most of the region: Craftsman bungalows and Tudor-era homes from the 1900s–1940s sit beside mid-century ramblers and newer townhomes. Older roofs often carry multiple shingle layers, original plank decking, and chimneys or dormers that need careful flashing.
Roughly 150 days of measurable rain a year, long shaded winters, and tree cover in most neighborhoods mean moss, clogged gutters and north-slope algae are the usual early warning signs rather than sudden storm damage.
Roof replacement in Seattle
Complete asphalt-shingle and metal roof systems: tear-off and disposal, decking review, underlayment and leak barriers, flashing, ventilation and cleanup, all spelled out in a written scope.
Plan a replacementPermits and paperwork
Seattle (SDCI) does not require a permit to re-roof a one- or two-family home when the building envelope stays the same and insulation is equal or better; replacing sheathing or altering the roof structure does. Landmark and historic-district homes can have extra review.

Good to know
Questions homeowners ask.
Do you offer free roof consultations in Seattle?
Yes. In-home consultations and estimates in Seattle are free and carry no obligation. We look at the roof, talk through what you have noticed, and follow up with a written scope before anything is scheduled.
How fast can you respond to a leak in Seattle?
Call (360) 340-1494 for urgent leaks. Emergency tarping and urgent repairs are available, including outside posted office hours when the team can confirm availability. Website requests are answered within one hour during business hours but are not monitored for emergencies.
Do older Seattle homes need a permit for a new roof?
Usually not. SDCI does not require a re-roof permit for a one- or two-family home when the roof is replaced like-for-like without changing the building envelope. Structural work, sheathing replacement beyond a repair, or homes in landmark and historic districts can trigger review. We confirm what applies to your address and the written scope spells it out.
