Roofing Contractor in Scottsville, VA

Scottsville roofing has a different feel than just about anywhere else we work. Sitting on the James River, with a downtown that's been here longer than the country it sits in, this is one of the parts of Albemarle where you'll still find tin and standing-seam metal as original roofing material — and where homeowners often want to keep it that way.

We respect that. Most of the calls we take in Scottsville are split between historic-home owners along the downtown grid and homeowners along the Hardware River and the lower streets where flooding is a real consideration in how a roof, gutters, and downspouts have to work together. When your house has had a foot of water in it before, water management isn't an aesthetic question — it's a structural one. We approach those projects accordingly: 6-inch gutters with the right pitch, downspouts run to clear the foundation, and a roof system that gives the water somewhere to go fast.

For the historic-downtown homes around Valley Street and the Canal Basin area, we do a fair amount of standing-seam metal work and careful repair on the older slate or pressed-metal roofs that some owners are keeping. Scottsville is the kind of small Virginia town where our 'family-owned since 1975' line means something — we're a similar kind of business in a town that values that. If your Scottsville home is overdue for a real look, we'll come out and treat it like the building it is.
