About Newton Roof Pros: Licensed Roofing Pros in MA
Newton Roof Pros works on the housing stock this city actually has: 1890s Queen Annes in Newtonville, gambrel colonials in West Newton Hill, foursquares in Auburndale, post-war capes in Oak Hill, and two-families in Nonantum. Plank sheathing, slate originals, steep multi-plane roofs and finished third floors are the normal conditions here, not the exceptions, and we price and license the work accordingly.
What we sell is a scope you can read and a permit you did not have to pull. Every estimate meets the Chapter 142A requirements for a written residential contracting agreement, every deposit stays inside the statutory cap, and every job that needs a building permit is filed by us under our own Construction Supervisor License. We will name which license class is on your permit if you ask, and we would rather you asked.
Three jobs we turn down: a coating painted over failing shingles, a third layer on a roof that already carries two, and tile on framing never designed to hold it. We decline all three and put the reason in writing. Nor are we the people to call if you want your insurance claim negotiated, which is a separately licensed activity in Massachusetts that we do not perform.
If you have a roofing project in Newton, the fastest way to get a real number is a free on-site estimate. See every Newton service we handle, check whether we cover Waltham, MA and the rest of Middlesex County and the inner-western suburbs, or go back to the Newton Roof Pros homepage to start.

How Newton Roof Pros works
How a job with Newton Roof Pros runs, start to finish
Site visit first, always. We measure, look at the real condition of the work area, and ask what you are actually trying to solve — then you get an itemized free estimate in writing with materials, scope and a realistic date on it.
Once the work starts, the same crew stays on the job until it is done. We protect the surrounding area, clean up daily, and tell you the moment something under the surface changes the plan, because the alternative is a surprise invoice and nobody wants that conversation. a written workmanship warranty backs the finished work.
What we will not do
We do not quote a roofing job over the phone, take deposits before a written scope exists, or bid work we are not set up to do properly. If your project needs a different trade, we say so and point you at someone who does it well. Losing a job is cheaper than doing one badly in Newton.
Where Newton Roof Pros works and who we work with
Newton, MA first, then the surrounding communities of Middlesex County and the inner-western suburbs: Waltham, Watertown, Brookline, Needham, Wellesley, Weston, Belmont, Dedham and more. Each of those has its own page with local detail rather than a copy of this one.
Work splits roughly between homeowners and commercial property — offices, retail, restaurants, apartment complexes and HOA boards across Middlesex County and the inner-western suburbs. Start with the Newton services, the Newton Roof Pros homepage, or just call (844) 511-2320.
Why Newton Chooses Newton Roof Pros
- ✓We check the deck before quoting, because a roof covering license covers only a quarter of the sheathing and Newton's pre-1930 stock regularly exceeds it.
- ✓Every estimate is already a Chapter 142A contract: materials, dates, capped deposit and cancellation rights on the same page you sign.
- ✓We file the building permit under our own license, which is what keeps your Guaranty Fund eligibility intact if anything ever goes wrong.
- ✓Photographs by roof plane, layer counts at the rake, and deck probes at eaves and valleys, given to you whether or not you hire us.
- ✓We will quote the repair when the repair is right, and we will tell you when a roof has good years left in it.
- ✓We decline coatings over failing shingles, third layers, and tile on framing that cannot carry it, and we say why in writing.
What Newton Customers Say
They probed the eaves before quoting and warned us the deck might go past what a roofing license covers. It did. Because they had the right supervisor on the permit already, the extra sheathing was done in two days instead of stopping the job.
Called about a hail claim after a bad night in June. They got up there, showed me the gutters and vent caps were unmarked, and told me it was age blistering rather than hail. No invoice. I hired them for the reroof eighteen months later.
Two-family with a chimney that had been caulked by three previous roofers. They cut a reglet, set the counterflashing with lead wedges and built a proper cricket behind it. First winter with a dry third-floor ceiling in years.
The estimate was already a real contract with the deposit capped and the dates written in. They pulled the permit themselves and explained why that mattered for the state fund. Nobody had ever explained that to me before.
