Compare 21 verified roofing contractors in Vermont with ratings, reviews, and contact information.
Vermont roofs face harsh, long winters with heavy snow, ice dams, and bitter cold. The Green Mountains get significant snowfall, and the entire state is subject to freeze-thaw damage from November through April. The short construction season concentrates all roofing work into five months.
Vermont does not require a statewide roofing contractor license, but all contractors must register with the Vermont Secretary of State. Many municipalities require building permits for roof replacements.
Roof replacement in Vermont costs $9,000 to $16,000 for asphalt shingles, with ski resort areas running significantly higher. For a detailed breakdown by material type, see our roof replacement cost guide. Compare asphalt shingles and metal roofing to choose the right material for your Vermont home.
Standing seam metal roofing is very popular for its ability to shed snow. Slate is traditional on older Vermont homes.
