Ocean City is a family beach resort barrier-island town with a housing stock split between 1880s-1920s Victorian shore cottages in the central historic district and 1990s-2020s modern condos and beach homes that have replaced earlier teardowns. Our work mixes historic cedar shake and slate restoration with modern coastal-rated architectural-shingle and metal roofing.
Barrier-island wind exposure is severe — we install with stainless fasteners, ring-shank nails, and high-wind nailing patterns as standard, and recommend metal roofing for properties closest to the ocean.
