Weather & Climate Considerations

How does South Burlington, Vermont's weather affect roof lifespan? The roofs up in South Burlington get slammed with somewhere between thirty‑five and forty inches of rain each year. A hefty seventy to a hundred inches of snow that’s been pumped up by Lake Champlain. Toss, in winter wind gusts the relentless freeze‑thaw dance and a decent dose of sun and the result is a recipe that spikes ice‑dam formation wears shingles down faster and trims the roof’s useful life compared with drier sunnier locales.

In South Burlington the optimal window for roofing stretches from May through September with June, July and August emerging as the most favorable months. The warmer drier summer climate, alongside snowfall and a marked decline in freeze‑thaw cycles, helps shingles adhere better and keeps crews productive. Because Vermont’s construction season is brief and nearby Lake Champlain tempers the weather summer generally supplies the dependable days, for roofing work.

Insurance & Storms
