Roofing Contractor Serving Franklin, MA

Franklin boomed in the 1980s and 1990s. About 57% of its homes were built in 1980 or later, many in the subdivisions off Route 140 and King Street near I-495. Those Colonials and split-levels are now on aging first roofs, and many are due for a full replacement.

Franklin also has a historic side, from the Greek Revival and Victorian homes around the Common and Central Street to the old mill village of Unionville. We have replaced roofs and skylights all over town, and we use only premium GAF [link: /gaf-roofing] and Owens Corning [link: /owens-corning] shingles, installed as a complete roofing system.

What We See on Franklin Roofs

These are the four issues that come up most on Franklin inspections, and how we handle each one.

  • 1980s and 1990s subdivision homes on first roofs

    Builder-grade shingles, lichen, broken ridge caps and clogged ridge vents. We tear off to the deck and install a complete GAF system. Compare 3-tab vs. architectural shingles

  • Leaking skylights and roof features

    Older skylights and decorative cupolas often leak before the roof does. We replace skylights with VELUX units and remove or rebuild failing features. See skylight replacement

  • Historic homes downtown and in Unionville

    Plank decking, older chimneys and rot at the eaves. We repair the deck and rebuild chimney flashing before the new roof goes on. Read why a solid roof deck matters

  • Ice dams every winter

    We run GAF StormGuard leak barrier along eaves, valleys and around chimneys, and balance intake and exhaust venting. Learn about preventing ice dams.

What MetroWest Homeowners Say

“Wilson was great to work with and very responsive through not just the estimating process but installation process as well. I’ve had other projects where the GC will disappear when the work starts but he’s available all the way through for questions and final walkthrough. He caught a small detail at the end and without being asked had his crew come back and make it right. Top level of service all at a reasonable cost. Would definitely recommend and use again should we have a roofing need.”
Steve C.
"Great experience from start to finish. Install was completed in one day with minimal disruption, and cost was competitive. Would definitely use again, but hopefully not for another 50 years."
John B.
"Very pleased with the service and speed! Our daughter used Master two years ago and was pleased with her service. We advise anyone needing roof replacement to use this roofing company."
