Roofing & Siding for Brewster homes
Brewster is entirely within the Old King's Highway Regional Historic District, so most visible exterior work needs to go through the local committee. Many homes sit in wooded lots where shade and moisture shorten the life of roofs and decks.
Brewster is known as the sea captains' town, and a town-wide inventory surveyed more than 300 houses that are a century old or more. Work on these homes is about restraint: matching shingle exposure and trim profiles, keeping original details where they can be saved and making new work hard to tell from old.
Away from Route 6A, many Brewster homes sit in deep shade on wooded lots around the ponds. Shade and moisture shorten the life of roofs and decks, so we pay close attention to ventilation, flashing at every wall and chimney, and decking materials that dry out well.
About 42 percent of Brewster homes were used seasonally in 2020, higher than the Cape average. We plan projects around when you are here, keep you updated while you are not, and close the house up at the end of every day.
Approvals that can apply in Brewster
Brewster Old King's Highway Historic District Committee
Covers the land north of the center line of Route 6, which is most of the town. Exterior changes, fences, signs, new construction and demolition need approval. Exemption certificates are available for architectural asphalt shingles in black, gray or weatherwood, or natural cedar at no more than 5 inch exposure, and for small sheds and low fences.

FAQ
Roofing & Siding in Brewster, MA: common questions
Do I need a permit for roofing & siding in Brewster?
A roof replacement and a siding replacement each need a building permit in Massachusetts, normally pulled by the contractor. In Brewster, permits go through the Brewster Building Department at Town Offices, 2198 Main Street, Brewster, MA 02631, 508-896-3701 ext. 1125. Exterior changes in Brewster can also need review by the Brewster Old King's Highway Historic District Committee and the Conservation Commission, depending on where the house sits, so it is worth checking before work is scheduled.
Which roofs qualify for a faster OKH approval in Brewster?
Brewster offers exemption certificates for architectural asphalt shingles in black, gray or weatherwood, and for natural cedar shingles laid at 5 inches or less to the weather. Other materials or colors go through the regular certificate review.
Why replace the roof and siding at the same time?
The flashing where the roof meets the walls, the drip edge and the trim tie the two together. Doing both at once means that detail is done right one time, the trim and colors match all the way around, and you deal with one estimate and one schedule.
