What Snohomish roofs actually deal with
First Street's housing stock runs a century old: steep pitches, layered tear-off histories, skip sheathing under the shingles, and architectural details — finials, turrets, flared eaves — that punish crews who only know production roofing. Down in the valley, river fog feeds moss most of the year. The newer developments up on the plateau toward Highway 9 are conventional composition work, aging on the usual 20–25 year clock. We bid the historic homes with per-sheet decking pricing printed up front, because century-old decking always has opinions.

Permits & logistics in Snohomish
City of Snohomish permits reroofs, and homes in the historic district may need design review for visible material changes — we handle that conversation with the city so you don't have to. County pockets go through Snohomish County PDS.
Snohomish homeowners ask us
Can you match the character of a historic Snohomish roof?
Yes — architectural shingles in period-appropriate profiles handle most of it, cedar where the home and the owner genuinely call for it. If the historic district has a say in your material choice, we manage that review as part of the job.
My 1910 house has skip sheathing. What does that mean for a reroof?
Modern shingles need solid decking, so skip-sheathed roofs get overlay sheeting during tear-off — a normal, priced-in-advance step on our historic-home bids, not a mid-job surprise.
Why is there so much moss on Snohomish roofs?
River-valley fog plus mature tree canopy. North slopes here grow moss nearly year-round; zinc strips and a 2–3 year treatment cycle keep it from becoming structural damage.
