Roofing and Siding Company in Hanover, MA
Residential Roofing and Siding Solutions in Hanover, MA
Hanover sits right in the middle of the South Shore, close enough to the coast to catch every nor’easter head-on. But heavy tree cover this far inland adds its own problems.
Storms drop branches onto roofs. Shade traps moisture and grows moss. And the freeze-thaw cycle running from November through March grinds down aging shingles, flashing, and siding faster than most homeowners realize.
We’ve been handling roofing and siding in Hanover, MA and across the South Shore for over 20 years. From the older colonials near Walnut Hill to newer builds along Route 53, Giannini Roofing knows what these homes need to stay protected.
Roofing in Hanover, MA
We install roofing systems built to handle Hanover’s heavy snow loads, ice cycling, and the coastal moisture that drifts inland from the South Shore. Standard builder-grade three-tab shingles don’t hold up here.
We’ve replaced roofs in Hanover that were only 12 years into a “25-year” shingle. The material gave out under the conditions this area throws at it.
Three systems we install and trust:
- CertainTeed architectural shingles: Our most-installed option in Hanover. Rated for high wind and impact resistance from storm debris. As a CertainTeed ShingleMaster contractor, we follow their exact install specs, which is what activates the full manufacturer warranty.
- Metal roofing: Sheds snow before it piles up, which is a big deal in Hanover where ice dams form fast on shaded rooflines. Metal is also the longest-lasting option we offer.
- TPO rubber membranes: The right choice for flat or low-slope sections. Creates a watertight seal that handles standing water and ice without cracking over time.
Every roof we install includes high-performance underlayment, proper attic ventilation, and reinforced flashing at every chimney and transition point. These details aren’t extras.
They’re the difference between a roof that lasts and one that leaks within a decade. Full details on our roofing services page.
Siding Installation and Repair in Hanover, MA
We install James Hardie fiber cement and CertainTeed vinyl siding for Hanover homeowners dealing with moisture, temperature swings, and branches scraping against exterior walls. Both materials hold up where wood and cheap vinyl won’t.
Old siding doesn’t just look bad. It lets water in and drives heating costs up, and that combination turns into wall rot fast.
Two options we install and stand behind:
- James Hardie fiber cement siding: Won’t rot, warp, or crack. It holds paint longer than wood and doesn’t attract woodpeckers or insects. No other siding we install handles New England weather this well.
- CertainTeed vinyl siding: Comes in profiles and colors that match the colonial and cape-style homes you see all over Hanover. It’s the lower-cost option and still holds up well if installed correctly.
And that’s the key: installed correctly. We wrap every window, door, and trim transition with house wrap and flashing before any siding goes on.
Most callbacks in siding work come from skipped flashing at transition points, not from the siding itself. We don’t skip those steps. Learn more on our siding services page.
Gutter Installation in Hanover, MA
We install seamless aluminum gutter systems for Hanover homes. The tree coverage in most Hanover neighborhoods means gutters clog faster here than in more open towns. Clogged or leaking gutters send water straight against your foundation, and that’s a repair bill nobody wants.
We fabricate our seamless gutter systems on-site from a single piece of aluminum, custom-cut to your roofline. No seams means no leak points. In our experience, proper downspout placement matters more than gutter size, so we position every downspout based on your property’s specific drainage patterns.
Drainage angle matters most on Hanover’s hillier lots. We use heavy-duty aluminum with corrosion-resistant hardware that won’t buckle under snow and ice. See the full range on our gutters services page.
Roof Repair and Storm Damage Response in Hanover, MA
We respond to storm damage calls across Hanover and Plymouth County. A few missing shingles or cracked flashing can let water into your attic for months without any visible signs inside. By the time you see a ceiling stain, the repair cost has doubled.
We’ve handled hundreds of storm damage calls across Plymouth County. No driveway inspections with binoculars. Our crew gets on the roof, checks every flashing point and valley, and documents the damage before the insurance claim goes in.
We also walk homeowners through the full insurance process. After a nor’easter or a summer storm blows a tree limb onto your roof, the last thing you need is paperwork. We handle the back-and-forth with the adjuster so you can focus on your family.
After a storm? Hanover’s tree coverage means branches hit roofs more often than in coastal towns. Don’t wait for a ceiling stain to show up. Call us at (781) 351-1785 or request a free inspection online.

Common Questions About Roofing and Siding in Hanover, MA
How much does a new roof cost in Hanover?
Roof replacement costs in Hanover depend on the size, pitch, material, and whether the old roof needs a full tear-off. Most residential jobs on the South Shore fall between $8,000 and $25,000. 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 to help make roofing, siding, and gutter projects easier on your budget. 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 in a small area, repair usually makes sense. But if you’re seeing curling shingles, multiple leak spots, or heavy granule loss in the gutters, full replacement will save you more long-term. We’ll give you an honest recommendation, not a sales pitch.
What roofing materials do you recommend for Hanover?
For most Hanover homes, CertainTeed architectural shingles are the best balance of durability, cost, and appearance. Homes with shade and ice dam issues benefit from metal roofing, which sheds snow before it builds up. We’ll recommend the right material based on your roof’s specific conditions.
What’s the best siding for a Hanover home?
James Hardie fiber cement is our top pick for Hanover. It won’t rot, warp, or attract insects, and it holds paint longer than wood.
For homeowners on a tighter budget, CertainTeed vinyl siding works well too. It’s a solid fit on colonial and cape-style homes where you want a classic look without the upkeep.
