Roof Replacement
A roof replacement in Scarborough, ME should be built around the details that prevent leaks long-term—flashing, underlayment strategy, ventilation, and clean edge work. Iron Badger Roofing is owner-operated and backed by 25+ years of hands-on residential construction experience, including roofing. We’ll give you clear options and a scope you can compare apples-to-apples.
Your workmanship warranty and the exact scope are confirmed in writing with your quote/contract. For package details, see our main roof replacement page.
Our most popular choice is GAF Timberline HDZ shingles with LayerLock technology, rated for 130 mph winds and backed by GAF’s lifetime limited warranty, plus 25+ years on our workmanship with our upgraded packages. For premium properties we also install authentic and synthetic slate (75-100+ year lifespans), standing-seam metal roofing (50+ years, superior snow shedding, salt-air corrosion resistance), EPDM rubber for flat sections, and cedar shake for a traditional New England look.
We’ll give you a realistic schedule up front, and if your project may qualify as an insurance claim, we handle the documentation and adjuster communication for you.

Roof Replacement FAQ
How do I know if I need replacement vs repair?
If the roof is failing in multiple areas, has widespread shingle damage, or is near end-of-life, replacement usually makes more sense than chasing leaks. We’ll tell you honestly either way.
How long does a roof replacement take?
Most residential roofs are completed efficiently once scheduled. Timeline depends on size, pitch, layers, and weather, but we focus on efficient completion and clean job sites.
Will you replace flashing and vents too?
Yes—flashing is where many leaks start. We address the details (chimneys, step flashing, pipe boots, valleys) so the new roof performs like it should.
Can you help with storm damage insurance claims?
Yes. We can document damage and provide line-item details to support the claim process.
Which roofing material holds up best on Scarborough’s coast?
Standing-seam metal and GAF Timberline HDZ shingles both perform well against salt air and nor’easter winds. Metal sheds snow fastest and resists corrosion longest; HDZ shingles are rated for 130 mph winds at a lower cost. We’ll walk you through the tradeoffs for your specific property, whether you’re near Higgins Beach or further inland.
Where can I see your warranty terms by package (Good/Better/Best)?
We keep the package-by-package terms on our main roof replacement page so the wording stays consistent. Your exact workmanship warranty is confirmed in writing with your quote/contract.
