Material costs go up every year. Labor follows. On April 15, ABC Supply bumped steep-slope roofing 6–10%. Run the math three years out and the same roof is about 20% more expensive. Here’s how that plays out on a $15,000 job.

BBB A+ AccreditedIf your shingles are near the end of their life anyway, waiting doesn’t make the roof cheaper. Here’s what’s stacking against you.
ABC Supply, Beacon, Lansing — they all send us the same letter every year. Sometimes twice. Shingles, underlayment, flashing, the whole list.
Good roofers in New England are harder to find than they were five years ago, and the schedule’s tighter. Labor rates track that.
If you’re going to replace it anyway, the dollar you spend today buys a better roof than the same dollar in three years.
A slow leak you don’t see becomes rotten decking, wet insulation, and a ceiling stain. Small problem becomes several problems.
Most roofers look at your roof from the ground. Or send a drone. Or grab a photo and guess. We climb up, walk every slope, and record the whole thing with narrated explanations so you can see and understand exactly what we find.
We got this letter from ABC Supply on March 5. 6 to 10% more on steep-slope roofing starting April 15. If you’ve been thinking about it, you just paid a little extra for thinking.
We get a letter like this pretty much every year, often twice. It’s not a scare tactic — it’s how the business works. Every contractor in New England got the same letter. It quietly shows up in every new quote written after April 15.
ABC Supply is a roofing and exterior materials distributor. The letter above is real correspondence to their contractor customers. We buy from several suppliers — ABC is one of them. The percentages are supplier-to-contractor and are shown here to illustrate industry pricing direction.

“Ben and his team were outstanding from start to finish. They did a thorough inspection, explained everything clearly, and completed our roof replacement in just two days. The quality of work is exceptional.”
“Transparent about everything — pricing, materials, timeline. No pressure at all. They found issues with our decking that the previous roofer missed.”
“Professional from beginning to end. The crew showed up on time, protected our landscaping, and the new seamless gutters look fantastic. Fair pricing and no surprises.”
A handful of jobs from the last six months across Southern NH and Northern MA. More on the Our Work page.
Full asphalt shingle tear-off and replacement. New ridge venting, upgraded flashing throughout. Two days, start to finish.
Our work comes from referrals. Selling someone a roof they didn’t need is a great way to never get referred again.
We’ll walk you through what’s available during the inspection. Nothing to sign until you see the numbers.
Materials, labor, disposal, permit — all of it. If something comes up mid-project, we tell you before we touch it.
If something we installed isn’t right, we come back. You get our workmanship commitment in writing, plus the material warranty from the manufacturer.
Exact warranty terms are spelled out on your estimate.
We climb your roof and walk the whole thing. A rep records a narrated video pointing at each issue and explaining what it is (in plain terms, not “it needs work”). Then you get a written report with photos, plus an itemized estimate. Video, report, and estimate are yours to keep — hire us or don’t.
Usual tells: 20–25+ year old asphalt, widespread granule loss, curling, leaks, bad flashing. Sometimes a good repair buys another 5–7 years. Sometimes it doesn’t. We’ll tell you which one you’re looking at when we get up there.
Then we’ll say so. This page is for people who already know it’s coming and want to get ahead of the price hikes. If that’s not you, it’s not you.
Yeah. Third-party lenders we work with. $0 down, 0% for 12 months, up to 10-year terms if you qualify. The lender decides approval — we just tell you what’s on the table.
