Our roof had reached its limit after 25 years. Arterra Design & Build removed everything down to the decking and replaced it with new architectural shingles. John ensured that the framing and ridge vents were updated before the installation. The lines are clean, and the roof drains perfectly. Couldn’t ask for a smoother process.
Arterra Design & Build's reply
Thank you for the wonderful feedback! We’re glad the full reroof went smoothly and that the new architectural shingles and upgraded ventilation made such an improvement. John and the crew take great pride in clean lines and proper drainage, so it means a lot to hear you’re happy with the results. We truly appreciate the trust!

The reroofing on our property was extensive, covering three connected sections totaling nearly 5,700 sq. ft. Arterra Design and Build assigned Tom to oversee the project, and the crew replaced aging asphalt shingles with stone-coated steel panels. It required new framing along one ridge to correct a dip and new flashing around two chimneys. The work took about twelve days, including inspections and cleanup. The craftsmanship is evident in how consistent the seams and fasteners look across the entire roofline. Rainwater channels properly now, and the soundproofing is noticeably better. The team worked efficiently without ever rushing the details, and that level of care shows in the new roof.

We had Arterra install a new roof using standing-seam metal panels. John checked every measurement and slope transition. The craftsmanship is outstanding, and inspections cleared easily.

I reached out to them when we started seeing leaks near the dormers after heavy rain. The inspection revealed water intrusion across multiple sections of the hip roof. Tom led the reroofing project using high-performance shingles and a waterproof membrane underlayment. They removed the old layers, corrected uneven framing, and reinstalled the gutters to improve drainage. Every ridge and valley was sealed and aligned precisely. The crew stayed consistent throughout the three-week project, and their work passed inspection on the first attempt. Since completion, the runoff is even, and the roofline looks sharper than it has in years. It’s the kind of improvement that adds real value long term.

Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re so glad we could resolve the leaks and give your roof the overhaul it needed. Correcting the framing, updating the drainage, and installing the new high-performance system made a big difference, and we’re happy everything passed inspection smoothly. We truly appreciate your trust and are glad the home now feels protected for the long run.
