Falmouth is the second-largest town on the Cape and the only one with two coastlines: Vineyard Sound on the south and Buzzards Bay on the west. That matters for exterior work, because homes in Falmouth Heights, Woods Hole and West Falmouth get hit from different directions than homes in East Falmouth or Hatchville. The housing stock ranges from year-round Capes and ranches to large waterfront properties and Victorian houses around the village green. Falmouth is about 30 minutes from our Centerville shop, and it is one of the towns where we work most often outside Barnstable.
Falmouth's south-facing roofs along Vineyard Sound bake in summer and take wind-driven rain in winter. We recommend architectural shingles with a high wind rating and a full synthetic underlayment for Falmouth reroofs.
Cedar shake and cedar shingle roofs are part of the Cape's traditional look, and on many historic-district homes they are the expected material. A cedar roof is a different craft from asphalt: each course is laid with the right exposure and keyway spacing, on a breathable underlayment or skip sheathing that lets the wood dry, with stainless steel fasteners so nothing rust-streaks. Done right, a cedar roof weathers to silver and lasts decades. Done wrong, it cups and rots in ten years. We build them the right way and we help with historic review where it applies.
Problems we solve
- Curling, cracked or missing shingles after a storm
- Black algae streaks on north- and shade-facing slopes
- Ice dams and interior leaks every winter
- Soft spots or sagging that point to rotted decking
- A roof at 20+ years that has never been inspected
Materials we work with
- Architectural asphalt shingles rated for high wind
- Algae-resistant shingles for shaded and damp lots
- Synthetic underlayment and ice-and-water membrane
- Ridge vents and proper intake ventilation
- Aluminum or copper drip edge and step flashing

Does the budget cover all costs involved?
Yes. Honesty is our trademark. We provide clear, comprehensive quotes so you know exactly what you are paying for to maximize the return on your investment.
Is a cedar roof practical on Cape Cod?
Yes, when it is installed with proper ventilation, stainless fasteners and a breathable underlayment. Cedar has been used on Cape roofs for three centuries. It costs more than asphalt but suits historic and shingle-style homes in a way asphalt cannot.
Do I need historic district approval for a cedar roof?
If your home is in a historic district, a cedar roof is usually the material the committee prefers, so approval is typically straightforward. We prepare the submission and handle the process for you.
Which parts of Falmouth do you cover for cedar shake roofing?
All of them: Falmouth village, Falmouth Heights, East Falmouth, Teaticket, Waquoit, Hatchville, North Falmouth, West Falmouth and Woods Hole. Our crew makes the drive from Centerville in about 30 minutes.
