Baldwinsville is a village of about 7,500 on the Seneca River, split between the towns of Lysander and Van Buren, with a lock on the canal system right in the village. The streets near the river hold older two-story houses, some with steep roofs and original details. Out from the village, Lysander and Van Buren have grown fast: the planned Radisson community and many subdivisions from the 1980s through today.
That gives Baldwinsville two very different roofing calendars. The older village homes need the same care as any old house: chimney flashing, valleys, multiple layers to remove, and decking to check. The newer subdivisions are working through their first roof replacement. Builder-grade shingles from the 1990s and 2000s are reaching their end, often on large roofs with several gables and a lot of valley.
Valleys are where those bigger roofs leak first, especially when they collect snow between two gables. On replacement we run ice and water shield the full length of every valley and choose a valley style that sheds meltwater cleanly. Permits come from the Village of Baldwinsville inside the village, and from the Town of Lysander or Van Buren outside it.

Baldwinsville roofing questions
My house is in Radisson. Who issues the permit?
Radisson is in the Town of Lysander, so the town does. We file it.
Why does my roof leak in the valley?
Valleys carry the most water and hold snow between gables. Worn shingles, a poor cut or missing membrane all show up there first.
Can you handle a big multi-gable roof in one day?
Larger roofs can take two or three days. We open only as much as we can close each day.
