Stephanie Vanderbilt
Owner, Coastal Windows & Exteriors
I grew up around here, and I started this company because North Shore homeowners deserved an exterior contractor who shows up when they say they will and installs things the right way the first time. When you book a roofing estimate in Essex County, you get a real measure, an honest scope and a written price — not a sales pitch with a countdown clock. If anything ever falls short of that, my number is on the contract.
“From estimate to final walkthrough everything was clear and no pressure. The new GAF roof looks fantastic and the yard was spotless.”

A look at how our crews handle roof replacement on North Shore homes, start to finish.
Get StartedWhat to Expect from Roof Replacement in Essex County
Every roof replacement project in Essex County starts with a measured, on-site assessment rather than a phone quote — the condition of what's already on the house drives both the scope and the price.
We install manufacturer-specified systems, not mixed parts, so the product warranty stays intact and the assembly performs the way it was tested to perform in a coastal climate.
Our crews protect landscaping, run daily cleanups, and finish with a walkthrough so you sign off before the final invoice.

About Essex County, MA
Coastal Windows & Exteriors is proud to serve Essex County, MA, providing top-quality windows, siding, roofing and doors to North Shore homeowners.
Essex County homes face the same coastal New England pressures as the rest of Essex County: salt-laden air, wind-driven rain off the water, ice dams at the eaves and freeze-thaw cycling that opens up seams in siding, roofing and window flashing.
We install with those conditions as the baseline — corrosion-resistant fasteners, correctly detailed flashing, and materials rated for northern climate zones — and we pull the local permits ourselves. Crews cover 01915, 01965, 01970, 01971, 01923 and nearby Beverly, Danvers.

What Does Roofing Cost in Essex County, MA?
Roof pricing depends on square footage and pitch, the number of layers coming off, how many valleys, chimneys, skylights and penetrations need flashing, and what the deck looks like once the old roof is gone. Ventilation corrections and ice-and-water coverage beyond code also factor in. We price after an on-site inspection, and any sheathing replacement is quoted at a stated per-sheet rate up front.
