Building in Rockland

Local know-how for Rockland homes

Rockland is a compact inland town in Plymouth County, next to Hingham, Weymouth, Norwell and Hanover. Its neighborhoods around Union Street and the town center are full of older capes, colonials, Victorian era homes and multi family houses, with newer subdivisions toward the edges of town. Many of those homes have original or aging wood clapboard, older roofs and decks that were added decades ago. PLJ replaces and repairs siding, rebuilds decks and porches, and replaces roofs throughout Rockland. With no ocean exposure, the main enemies here are freeze and thaw, ice dams and simple age. Front porches on older homes often need new framing, decking, railings and trim, and older roofs benefit from new underlayment, ice and water barrier and better ventilation. Rockland is a short drive from our South Shore office in Cohasset.

FAQ

Rockland FAQ

Can PLJ restore the front porch on an older Rockland home?

Yes. We repair or rebuild porch framing, decking, railings, columns and trim, matching the style of the house where possible.

Should I replace or repair the wood clapboard on my Rockland home?

If damage is limited to a few areas, repairing and repainting can make sense. If rot and peeling are widespread, replacing it with fiber cement, vinyl or new wood siding over a fresh weather barrier is usually the better long term choice. PLJ looks at the walls up close during the estimate visit.

Do I need a permit to replace my roof in Rockland?

In Massachusetts, a roof replacement generally requires a building permit from the local building department. PLJ helps with the permit application as part of the job.
