Roofing in Burlington, WA
Roofing for Burlington homes, from Builders Service Company.
Two local factors shape roofing work here: the wind that moves through the Skagit Valley and the city’s setting on the valley flood plain. Wind puts the most stress on a roof at its edges, so eaves, rakes, ridges and flashing get close attention on every job, along with how each course is fastened.
Housing age matters too. With a median build year of 1993, a large share of Burlington homes are on original or early replacement roofs, and some may carry more than one layer of shingles. Before any new roofing goes on, we assess the roof deck underneath to confirm it is sound and plan the ventilation, since proper airflow keeps attic moisture down and helps shingles wear evenly. We also look at the condition of each layer to decide whether a repair can still do the job or a full replacement makes more sense.
We install two main roofing types and give them equal weight in the conversation:
- Asphalt shingle roofing offers a wide range of colors and profiles and fits most budgets.
- EDCO metal roofing is a long-term option with a clean, uniform look.
Wildfire risk is rated low here, at the 34th percentile statewide, so the choice between the two usually comes down to appearance, budget and how long you plan to stay. Either way, the job includes underlayment, flashing around chimneys and vents, and cleanup at the end. Learn more about Burlington home exterior services.

Asphalt or metal: which roof is right for my Burlington home?

Wildfire risk is rated low here, at the 34th percentile statewide, so the choice usually comes down to appearance, budget and how long you plan to stay in the house.
Do you check the roof deck before reroofing?
Yes. With a median build year of 1993, many local homes are on original or early replacement roofs, and some may have more than one layer. We assess the roof deck, plan ventilation and confirm what is underneath before new roofing goes on. Edges, ridges and flashing get extra attention because of Skagit Valley wind.
