Roofing in Sudden Valley
What lake and forest weather does to a Sudden Valley roof.
Tall firs, lake moisture and hillside lots mean many Sudden Valley roofs stay damp and covered in needles for much of the year.
Sudden Valley homes
Homes in the trees, built in the 70s and 80s.
Many Sudden Valley homes were built in the 1970s and 80s and are now on their second or third roof. We tear off to the deck, replace soft or damaged boards and install a complete GAF roofing system.
Sudden Valley has community guidelines for exterior changes. We can help you pick colors and materials and give you the details you need for any approval.

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.

Sudden Valley roofing questions
Do you serve all of Sudden Valley?
Yes. Topside works throughout Sudden Valley and around Lake Whatcom, including Geneva and Agate 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.
Can you help with Sudden Valley approval requirements?
Yes. We can provide material and color details for your community approval. Check current requirements with Sudden Valley before work starts.
How much does a new roof cost in Sudden Valley?
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.
