Common Roofing Projects We Handle in Seattle
Specialized roofing dumpster solutions for every type of roof project in the Pacific Northwest
Asphalt Shingle Roof Replacements
Most common in Seattle: Replacing aging asphalt shingles on residential homes. Our 20-yard dumpsters handle 25-30 squares of shingle removal perfectly. Popular in neighborhoods like Queen Anne, Wallingford, and Green Lake where homes were built in the 1950s-1980s.
Clay Concrete Tile Tear-Offs
Spanish-style homes: Removing heavy clay or concrete tiles common in Mediterranean-style homes in Magnolia and West Seattle. These projects require 30+ yard dumpsters due to extreme weight. Tiles can weigh 800-1,500 lbs per square.
Fire-Resistant Roofing Installations
Wildfire zones: Installing Class A fire-resistant roofing materials in areas like North Seattle and shoreline communities. Projects involve removing old materials and disposing of new installation waste including metal roofing, fire-resistant shingles, and specialized underlayments.
Flat Roof Tear-Offs (BUR)
Commercial buildings: Built-Up Roofing (BUR) removal from commercial and industrial buildings in SODO, Georgetown, and Ballard. These projects involve multiple layers of tar, gravel, and membrane materials requiring specialized heavy-duty containers.
Storm Damage Roof Repairs
Wind weather damage: Emergency roof repairs after Pacific Northwest storms. Disposing of damaged shingles, broken tiles, tree branches, and temporary tarping materials. Common after windstorms in fall/winter months affecting Capitol Hill, Beacon Hill areas.
Multi-Family Roofing Projects
Apartment condo buildings: Large-scale roofing projects on multi-family buildings in Belltown, South Lake Union, and University District. These require multiple 30-40 yard dumpsters and coordinated delivery schedules to minimize tenant disruption.
