Roofing Problems We See Most in Woonsocket
Woonsocket roofing means old buildings. Much of the housing went up around the mills, close together and built to last, with steep pitches that were originally slate or wood shingle.
Those roofs were converted to asphalt decades ago, sometimes over the original decking without correction. Layer count is the first thing checked on a Woonsocket roof, because a third layer is not legal and not safe.
Snow is heavier in northern Rhode Island. Woonsocket sits at the top of the state, away from the moderating water, and roofs here carry accumulation longer than roofs on the bay.
