Massachusetts has some of the oldest housing in the country
Age is the main roofing fact in Massachusetts. Table B25034 (ACS 5-year 2020-2024) shows 67.4% of the state's housing units built before 1980, behind only New York and Rhode Island among the states, and 925,420 units built in 1939 or earlier. Table B25035 gives a median year built of 1964 for the same estimates.
Newer homes are a small part of the count. The same table B25034 (ACS 5-year 2020-2024) shows 189,012 units built from 2010 to 2019 and 30,285 built in 2020 or later, against 327,682 built in the 1950s alone. Year built is one way a roofing buyer can judge the age of a house before the first call.
For ownership, table B25003 (ACS 5-year 2020-2024) counts 1,741,158 owner-occupied units among 2,785,042 occupied units, The remaining occupied units are rented, and a renter cannot sign for a roof.
Massachusetts storm and hail records
Hail is uncommon in the Massachusetts record. The NOAA Storm Events 2025 details file lists 15 Massachusetts records with event type Hail, 158 with event type Thunderstorm Wind and 18 with event type High Wind for 2025.
FEMA's Disaster Declarations Summaries show one Massachusetts major disaster since January 1, 2023 that meets the storm count: DR-4780, declared May 15, 2024, titled severe storms and flooding. Its incident type is flood, and it counts because the title names severe storms.
How the counts work: Storm Events figures are 2025 records for Massachusetts by event type, one per county or forecast zone per event. Declarations are distinct state major disaster (DR) numbers since January 1, 2023 whose incident type is a severe storm, tornado or hurricane or whose title names one, excluding severe winter storms.
Who may supervise roofing work in Massachusetts
This section is general information, not legal advice. It summarizes official sources as of October 7, 2026; check the current text of each rule before relying on it.
Massachusetts licenses the person who supervises building work, and roofing has its own specialty license. The state's Construction Supervisor License guide (as of October 2026), published by the Office of Public Safety and Inspections and the Board of Building Regulations and Standards, lists a Specialty CSL for roof covering. Its scope is construction, reconstruction, alteration, repair and removal of roof covering, plus replacement of 25% of sheathing and sistering of 25% of roof rafters.
The same guide (as of October 2026) lists the building types this license covers: 1- and 2-family dwellings with accessory structures, agricultural buildings, and buildings of any use under 35,000 cubic feet.
Home Improvement Contractor registration and the in-home sales cancellation rule are described on leads in Massachusetts, so they are not repeated here.
What Massachusetts roofing buyers filter on
Massachusetts filters follow the housing age and the license scope described above.
- Homeowner status: the first screen in a state where many households rent.
- Project type: full replacement, repair or tear-off, which also tells the buyer whether sheathing work may be involved.
- Insurance claim status: whether the homeowner has filed a claim, so claim and non-claim requests can be routed apart.
- ZIP code: buyers set ZIP codes to the towns their licensed supervisors cover.
