Roofing and Siding Company in Lexington, MA

Roofing in Lexington, MA

We install roofing systems built for Lexington’s combination of historic-home complexity, heavy snow loads, and the tree cover that defines most neighborhoods. Builder-grade three-tab shingles don’t belong on these properties.

We’ve replaced Lexington roofs where the original install used quick-cycle material that gave out at year ten or twelve. On homes worth what Lexington homes are worth, that’s the wrong economy.

Three systems we install and trust on Lexington homes:

• CertainTeed architectural shingles: Our most-installed option for Lexington’s mid-tier and premium homes. Rated for high wind and impact. As a CertainTeed ShingleMaster contractor, we follow the exact install specs that activate the full manufacturer warranty.
• Metal roofing: The right answer for many of Lexington’s larger estate-style homes. Sheds snow before it builds up against valleys and chimneys, and ice dams never get a foothold. Lasts 50 years when installed right.
• TPO rubber membranes: Used for flat dormers, porch roofs, and additions on Lexington’s older homes. Stays watertight when ice or standing water sits for weeks.

Every roof we install includes high-performance underlayment, proper attic ventilation, and reinforced flashing at every chimney, valley, and transition point. On historic-district homes, we also coordinate with local guidelines when the exterior is visible from a designated street.

These details aren’t extras. They’re the difference between a roof that lasts and one that fails inside the warranty window. Full details on our roofing services page.

Siding Installation and Repair in Lexington, MA

We install James Hardie fiber cement and CertainTeed vinyl siding for Lexington homeowners dealing with old wood clapboard, woodpecker damage, and moisture that creeps in behind siding that hasn’t been redone in 30 years. The wrong material on a Lexington home shows fast.

Old siding doesn’t just hurt curb appeal in a town where appearance and resale matter. It lets water reach the sheathing, and once rot starts behind the wall, you’re looking at framing repairs, not a re-side.

Two options we install and stand behind:

• James Hardie fiber cement siding: The closest replacement for wood clapboard on a historic-district home. Handles moisture, holds paint longer than any wood option, and won’t attract insects or woodpeckers. The premium choice for Lexington’s older properties.
• CertainTeed vinyl siding: Profiles and colors that fit the cape and colonial lines you see across Lexington. A cost-effective option that performs when the install is done right.

The install is where most siding jobs go wrong. We wrap every window, door, and trim transition with house wrap and properly lapped flashing before any siding goes on.

Most siding callbacks trace back to unflashed transitions, not the panels themselves. We don’t skip those steps. Learn more on our siding services page.

Gutter Installation in Lexington, MA

We install seamless aluminum gutter systems for Lexington homes. The heavy oak and pine coverage across most Lexington neighborhoods clogs gutters fast. Once water backs up, it dumps against fascia boards and foundations, and on a Lexington home that means visible damage you don’t want.

We fabricate seamless gutters on-site from a single piece of aluminum, custom-cut to your roofline. No seams, no leak points. From experience on hundreds of installs, downspout placement matters more than gutter size. Every downspout is positioned for the actual drainage path on your property.

Drainage angle matters most on Lexington’s sloped lots near the reservoir and the hillier streets above Mass Ave. We use heavy-duty aluminum with corrosion-resistant hardware that holds up under snow loads and ice. See the full range on our gutters services page.

Roof Repair and Storm Damage Response in Lexington, MA

We respond to storm damage calls across Lexington and Middlesex County. A few missing shingles or a piece of cracked flashing can let water into your attic for months without leaving a ceiling mark. By the time the stain shows up, the damage has reached the framing.

We’ve handled hundreds of storm damage calls across eastern Massachusetts. No driveway inspections with binoculars. Our crew gets on the roof, checks every flashing point, valley, and chimney, and documents the damage before the insurance claim goes in.

We also handle the insurance side. After a wind event or a tree limb on the roof, the last thing a Lexington homeowner needs is a paperwork battle. We deal with the adjuster directly so you can focus on getting the house back to normal.

Common Questions About Roofing and Siding in Lexington, MA

How much does a new roof cost in Lexington?

Roof replacement costs in Lexington run higher than most Massachusetts towns because the homes are larger, the materials are often premium, and historic-district properties carry added complexity. Most residential jobs fall between $12,000 and $40,000, with slate and copper jobs going higher. We provide free on-site estimates with a full itemized breakdown so there are no surprises.

Does Giannini Roofing offer financing?

Yes. We offer flexible financing for roofing, siding, and gutter projects. Ask about available plans when you schedule your free estimate.

Should I repair my roof or replace it?

If your roof is under 15 years old and the damage is contained, repair usually makes sense. If you’re seeing curling shingles in multiple spots, repeat leaks, or heavy granule loss in the gutters, full replacement saves more long-term. We’ll give you an honest call, not a sales pitch.

What roofing materials do you recommend for Lexington?

For most Lexington homes, CertainTeed architectural shingles offer the right balance of durability, cost, and curb appeal. Larger estate homes and shaded properties often do better with metal, which sheds snow and lasts decades longer. Historic-district homes may need slate or cedar to match the original material.

What’s the best siding for a Lexington home?

James Hardie fiber cement is our top pick for Lexington. It handles moisture, holds paint, and gives a wood-clapboard look without the upkeep, which makes it the right call for historic-district replacements.

For owners on a tighter budget, CertainTeed vinyl siding still performs. On the capes and colonials common across town, the right vinyl profile holds the classic look without yearly maintenance.
