Roofing and exterior updates for Stanton Heights homes
Stanton Heights is largely made up of mid-20th-century homes, which sets it apart from most of the East End's older housing. Straight A Exterior Renovations offers roof replacement, siding, gutters and windows to Stanton Heights homeowners.
Homes from this era usually have simpler roofs than a Victorian or a rowhouse: fewer valleys and dormers, more open roof planes. That often makes replacement straightforward. It also means many homes here are ready for a broader exterior update, with original windows, gutters and siding that have done their time.
We can quote the roof alone or the full exterior. Either way, you get a free inspection, a written quote and your choice of materials and color.
Local know-how
What we look for on Stanton Heights homes
Mid-century homes have their own set of common issues. They are less about complex flashing and more about aging materials, ventilation and how the exterior works as a whole.
Simpler, open rooflines
Broad roof planes and fewer intersections mean fewer leak points, but they also take the full force of wind and sun.
Original exterior components
Windows, gutters and siding on some homes may be original or several decades old. They often wear out on the same timeline as the roof.
Attic ventilation
Homes from this era may have limited roof venting. Improving airflow during a replacement helps shingles last and reduces ice dam risk.
Wind exposure
Homes on higher ground and more open lots can feel stronger storm winds. Proper nailing and edge details matter.

Our process
Our process for Stanton Heights homes
When a project covers roof, siding and windows, we sequence the work so each part ties into the next and your home stays protected.
- Step 1
Free inspection
We check the roof, attic ventilation and the rest of the exterior, including original windows, gutters and siding.
- Step 2
Detailed written estimate
You can quote the roof alone or the full exterior. Each part is listed separately, and you pick the materials and colors.
- Step 3
Insurance assistance, only if a storm caused damage
Broad roof planes on higher ground can take storm wind head-on. If that caused damage, we document it and work with your insurer through the claim.
- Step 4
Installation
Work is sequenced so the roof edge, trim, siding and windows tie together, with careful nailing and edge details for wind.
- Step 5
Cleanup and final walkthrough
We clear debris from every part of the project, check the finished work and walk the exterior with you.
- Step 6
Warranty activation
Once we finish, your new roof is covered two ways: a lifetime product warranty on the materials and our own 2-year workmanship guarantee on the labor. If you updated siding or windows at the same time, the workmanship guarantee covers that installation too.
FAQ
Questions from Stanton Heights homeowners
Should I replace my roof and siding at the same time?
It is not required, but doing them together lets us coordinate the roof edge, trim and gutters in one project. If your budget calls for one at a time, we will tell you which to do first.
What siding options do you offer?
We install vinyl siding and board and batten. We can show you styles and colors that suit a mid-century home.
Can you add ventilation to my attic during a roof replacement?
We check ventilation during the inspection. If the attic needs better airflow, that work goes into your quote.
Do you install new windows?
Yes. We install replacement windows and can coordinate them with siding work so the openings are trimmed and sealed together.
How long does a typical roof replacement take?
Many roof replacements are finished in a single day, weather permitting. Your project manager will confirm the schedule for your home.
My roof looks fine from the street. Should I still have it inspected?
If the roof is getting older or has been through a strong storm, yes. Lifted shingles, worn sealant around vents and early granule loss are hard to see from the ground. The inspection is free and comes with photos.
