Historic Roof Restoration

Revitalize Beautiful Architecture From the Past With Our Restoration Services

No matter what type of roofing material your job calls for, Rainville-Carlson’s team has the expertise to ensure a smooth restoration. Our aim with each project is to maintain the integrity of a building’s historical value while improving and protecting it with a new roof.

Maintain a Building’s Look and Integrity With Historic Roof Restoration

To restore a building to its former glory, you need a contractor that understands historical building methods and materials and can incorporate modern safety and building standards into the overall roof design.

As architectural designs and technologies have evolved, so have roofing systems. This helps explain why buildings of specific eras tend to have completely different roofing materials than those from an earlier period. During the restoration process, Rainville-Carlson works with local historical societies to make sure the proper roofing system is applied to your building. We restore many types of historical roofing systems other than slate and tile, including:

  • Copper roofing
  • Asphalt shingles
  • Wood shingles
  • Tin plate roofing
  • Stainless steel

With any roof repair or roof replacement, we preserve the historic integrity of your building by staying as true to the existing roof as we can while strengthening it to meet modern standards.

What Makes a Property Historic?

Age, style, and significance combine to determine how historical a roof is. If a structure is over 50 years old, is relatively unchanged from its original construction, and embodies a distinctive form or architecture or was present during a historical event, it’s usually considered historic. Historic roof restoration projects must be handled with care, and Rainville-Carlson has the experience to maintain the authentic look of your roof while maximizing structural integrity.

When Is Restoration Necessary?

The older the building, the more wear and tear the roof has experienced. Building materials, such as metal roofs or clay tile, require different care. Many areas need historic buildings to comply with regulations to keep them as accurate to their original design as possible. Before starting the restoration process, we do a thorough roof inspection to make sure we know what roofing materials will be required to meet local standards.

Restore the Elegance, Beauty, and Integrity of Your Historic Building

A historic renovation requires the knowledge and understanding of every component of the building, and when they begin to leak and fail, Rainville-Carlson is your best resource to return it to a safe and functional condition.
