Older Roof Forms

Dormers, masonry chimneys, valleys and prior additions can make deck and flashing conditions more complex.

Tree-Lined Properties

Mature trees add shade, branch exposure and debris around valleys, gutters and roof penetrations.

Two-Step Approval

Chatham handles zoning and engineering review; Madison processes construction permits and inspections.
