Midcoast, Lincoln County
Newcastle runs from the Damariscotta River across to the Sheepscot, with historic homes near the river and Damariscotta Mills and farmhouses inland. Snow, ice, and freeze-thaw are the main things these roofs have to handle.
Every Newcastle roof gets an in-person inspection by Jeff or Aaron. We climb it, photograph the conditions, and check the attic when you allow it. Then we explain what we found and what we'd recommend.
Older homes near the village and Damariscotta Mills often have chimneys, ells, and roof-to-wall transitions where flashing wears out. Inland there are capes, farmhouses, and newer homes, and both rivers have waterfront homes.
Newcastle sees full Midcoast winters. Ice-and-water coverage at eaves and valleys and good attic ventilation get as much attention as the roofing material.
We serve homes in Newcastle village, at Damariscotta Mills, along River Road and Route 215, and in Sheepscot village. We specialize in full roof replacement. Options include asphalt shingles, standing seam metal, Brava composite, and an honest repair-or-replace answer on leaks.
Recent work
A full reroof of this Yarmouth home and garage, start to finish in one day. Everything came off and everything is new: drip edge, ice and water shield, synthetic underlayment, IKO architectural shingles, and a new ridge vent. Before the roof went on, we took the time to clean up the chimney brick and renew the flashing, one of those small extras that gets skipped on a lot of jobs, and one of the first places an older roof shows its age.

When a late-summer microburst tore through the greater Portland area, a tree came down on this Yarmouth home, straight through the roof and into the truss system. This wasn't a shingle patch: it meant working with the homeowner, their insurance company, the town, and an engineer to rebuild the damaged framing correctly. New structural members went in alongside the originals, fresh sheathing closed the deck, and the roof went back together over it. Storm repairs like this are part of what we do, and doing them right means getting the structure right first.

Google reviews
"Jeff and Aaron were amazing right from the first phone contact with Jeff onto the first in person meeting with Jeff and Aaron all the way to the very end of the installation. Everything was explained thoroughly to me and I had a very good …"
"Aaron & Jeff are exceptional to work with. The roof was done on schedule, looks awesome and clean up was perfect. I would recommend them to everyone."
"The best!! I felt very comfortable and taken care of working with Pine & Gable. They were super honest and transparent during the whole process, and their level of craftsmanship is unmatched. My new roof looks so great and I could be happier with how smooth the entire process went"
Almost always. Old flashing is a common source of leaks, and re-roofing is the right time to replace it. We check it in person and include it in the written quote.
Yes. We serve both towns, along with Wiscasset, Boothbay, and Bristol.
