Roofing in Hollis, NH

On 6 September 2014 a microburst hit Hollis. The National Weather Service estimated the gust at 96 knots, roughly 110 miles an hour, the strongest thunderstorm wind on record in any of the twenty-six towns we cover. Two large trees were snapped twenty to thirty feet off the ground on Eastman Lane, branches eighteen inches thick came down across Dow Road, and a house was damaged by a tree falling onto it.

It happened again smaller on 5 August 2022, when 61 knot outflow winds downed numerous trees in Hollis and one damaged a building in Silver Lake State Park. And the largest dollar figure attached to this town has no coordinates at all: a lightning strike on 16 August 2002, logged under Hollis at 350,000 dollars, which no radius search will return.

Hollis publishes no roofing permit type and no roofing exemption. Its fee schedule, revised 1 August 2026, has no roofing line; the only roof entry in it is a rooftop solar array at seventy-five dollars. The application does have a roofing row in its contractor table, but that is a subcontractor disclosure, not proof that a standalone permit exists. We ask the Building Department rather than infer.

Two things about that department shape the schedule. Applications must be submitted in person during business hours and will not be accepted by mail, payment is by check only, and inspection requests are not accepted by email. Enforcement is complaint-driven: the town processes building and zoning violations on a complaint basis. So nobody is patrolling for an unpermitted roof, and nobody is checking one either.

The town does keep its code current and publishes it: the 2021 international residential, building, plumbing, mechanical, existing building and pool codes, the 2018 energy code and the 2023 electrical code, effective for all new plans from 31 December 2024. That matches the state statute, which several neighbors do not.

Hollis counts 3,409 housing units whose median build year is 1979, with 468 of them raised in 1939 or earlier and owner occupancy at 91.7 percent. Bottled gas serves 36.8 percent of occupied units against 4.4 percent on utility gas. The antique houses at the center need hand-fitted flashing rather than a standard kit forced to fit, and we quote that as its own line.

What we would say in Hollis and not in Manchester: the exposure here is wind, not age, and it is documented. Ask for the fastening schedule in writing, the fastener length and the nailing pattern at the perimeter, and ask what the shingle is classified to. A 110 mile an hour gust has already been measured over this town once.

About Hollis, NH — and why local matters here

Hollis sits in Hillsborough County with a population of roughly 8,342, close enough to Manchester that crews move between the two constantly. Local landmarks and corridors residents know well include Silver Lake State Park, the Nissitissit River.

Local knowledge is not a marketing line here. Hollis properties share soil, weather, permit rules and construction eras with the rest of Hillsborough County, and a roofing contractor who works the area weekly already knows what fails locally and what holds up. That is the difference between a bid and an accurate bid.

Roofing work we do in Hollis, NH

Manchester Premium Roofing covers the same range of work in Hollis that we do in Manchester — nothing is carved out because the address is a few miles up the road:

  • Fascia & Soffit — Fascia and soffit work here is mostly carpentry on old growth timber, and the standard offer to wrap it all in aluminum coil is usually wrong. The wood on these houses is denser and better than what would replace it, and it is generally sound apart from its ends.
  • Chimney Flashing — The chimney produces more leaks in Manchester than any other part of a roof, because it is the one place a moving timber roof is tied to rigid old masonry. Get that junction wrong and the quality of everything else stops mattering.
  • Commercial Roofing — Commercial work in Manchester splits into two populations that need different thinking. There is nineteenth-century brick, much of it along the river and converted to offices and apartments, and there is late-twentieth-century single-story building along the highway corridors.
  • Insurance Claim Help — We document, we scope, and we meet the adjuster on site. Negotiating the claim itself is not ours to do, and a roofer volunteering to run it for you is offering something that ought to worry you rather than reassure you.
  • Roof Replacement — A replacement here is a paperwork problem before it is a carpentry problem. New Hampshire licenses no roofer and many towns near us never inspect the work, so what you signed is the only record of what was promised.
  • Roof Leak Repair — Most Manchester leaks are not holes in the field. They are a joint where the roof meets something else, and on this housing stock that something else is usually brick, an addition built at a different date, or a valley where two eras of roof were married together.

Hollis Written-Scope Roofing Services: Common Questions

How soon can you start a roofing job in Hollis?

We can usually walk a Hollis property within a couple of days and put the written free estimate in your hands the same week. Start dates depend on material lead times and, where Hollis requires a permit, on how long that review takes — we tell you both before you commit to anything.

Are you licensed to work in Hollis, NH?

Yes. New Hampshire issues no roofing license.

The Office of Professional Licensure and Certification runs boards for electricians and for mechanical trades - plumbers and fuel gas fitters sit under a single Mechanical Licensing Board, the separate plumbing chapter having been repealed in 2013 - and none of them covers roofing, so nobody can hand you a state roofing credential to check.

What does govern is RSA 155-A:2, I, applying the state building code to every repair, alteration and renovation of a building already standing, and RSA 155-A:2, VII, placing responsibility for meeting it on the contractor and saying plainly that no municipality is liable if he fails.

We pull the permit where the town issues one and print the adopted code edition on the contract - and note that the state's own published statute and three towns' building departments currently name DIFFERENT editions, so we print which one your town is enforcing, General liability and workers' compensation carried without a gap, and the paperwork reaches you direct from the insurer instead of as a copy we forward on.

Ask any bidder for it the same way, since in a state with no licensing board this is one of the few things about a roofer that a stranger can actually confirm, and every job in Hollis is backed by You get the workmanship warranty as a document, its duration and every exclusion typed onto it.

That matters more here than most places: RSA 359-G:2, III says a construction defect carries the meaning assigned by the written express warranty, so the sheet of paper we hand you is what a court reads first.

Where there is no written warranty at all the statute supplies its own broader definition - but that is a worse position to argue from than a document that says what it covers.

Where Hollis issues a permit for this work we pull it in our own name; not every jurisdiction we serve requires one, and we tell you which yours is.

Do you charge extra to come out to Hollis?

No. Hollis is inside our regular roofing service area, so the free estimate and the pricing are the same as they are in Manchester. Crews are in Hillsborough County most weeks already.
