Roofing in Orcas Island
What island weather does to an Orcas roof.
Orcas homes range from exposed shoreline to deep forest, and both are hard on roofs in their own way.
Orcas homes
From waterfront homes to cabins in the woods.
Waterfront homes around Eastsound, Deer Harbor and Olga need roofs that stand up to wind and salt. We pay close attention to edges, ridges and flashing.
Cabins and homes up in the trees deal more with shade and moss. We tear off to the deck, replace soft boards and set the roof up to dry out between storms. Metal roofing is a good fit for many island homes.

What's included
Every Topside roof replacement includes:
Full tear-off to the deck
No roofing over old roofing. We remove everything so the deck can be checked.
Decking repair
Soft or rotted plywood is replaced before the new roof goes on.
Underlayment and leak barrier
Synthetic underlayment, plus ice and water leak barrier in valleys and at eaves.
New flashing
Walls, chimneys, skylights and vents get new flashing, not reused metal.
Ventilation check
Ridge and intake venting sized so the attic can dry out in our damp months.
Cleanup and walkthrough
Magnet sweep for nails, all debris hauled away, and a final review with you.

Orcas Island roofing questions
Do you serve all of Orcas Island?
Yes. Topside works across Orcas Island, including Eastsound, Deer Harbor, Olga and Doe Bay.
Do you do roof repairs too, or only replacements?
Both. If the roof is in good shape and the problem is in one area, a repair may be all you need. See our roof repair page.
How do island jobs work with the ferry?
We schedule crews, materials and disposal around ferry times and plan island jobs further ahead than mainland work. We will walk you through timing when we give your estimate.
How much does a new roof cost in Orcas Island?
It depends on roof size, pitch, layers, material and what we find under the old roof. We give a free written estimate, and monthly payments are available through our financing partners.
What about moss on my roof?
Moss holds water against the shingles and lifts their edges. We can clean and treat a roof that still has life left, or talk through replacement if the shingles are worn out. See roof maintenance.
Is Topside local?
Yes. Topside is a family-owned roofing company based in Bellingham that has been roofing Northwest Washington since 1989.
