Our storyWe live here. We answer for every roof.
Eighteen years and 2,400-plus Maine roofs, run out of Greater Portland by the people who actually climb them.
The promise hasn't changed in eighteen years
Summit was founded in 2007 by Ryan Caron, a Westbrook framer who watched the brutal winter of '07 peel ice dams and shingles off half the houses on his street — and watched fly-by-night crews take advantage of his neighbors.
He started Summit on one promise: do honest work, stand behind it, and treat a Maine homeowner's roof like the thing standing between their family and the weather.
Eighteen years and 2,400-plus roofs later, our crews still work out of Greater Portland, still answer for every job, and still believe the best advertising is a roof that holds through twenty Maine winters.
Storm-chasers leave. We live here.
After every big Maine storm, out-of-state crews show up, slap on a roof, and vanish before the warranty matters. We're the opposite.
Local & accountable
Based in Greater Portland, here year-round. If something's wrong in five years, we're a short drive away — not a disconnected phone number in another state.
Manufacturer certified
GAF Master Elite and Owens Corning Preferred status that fewer than 3% of roofers earn — and that unlocks the strongest warranties available.
Honest scope
If you need a repair, we won't sell you a replacement. If the storm didn't cause it, we'll tell you that too.
Clean, fast crews
Most roofs done in a day, yard swept with a magnet for every stray nail, and a final walkthrough before we leave.
Built for this climate
Ice-and-water shield, proper ventilation, and ice-dam prevention done right — because a roof that works in June has to survive February.
The work speaks
Eight, ten, fifteen years on a Summit roof through every nor'easter — and the referrals from neighbors who watched it hold.
