Associate Roofing is a Braintree roofing contractor with an active Massachusetts home improvement contractor license, serving Boston, the South Shore, and Martha's Vineyard. The company says it was founded in 1932 and, on its website, describes itself as family-owned and operated by the Lynch family for three generations; a roofing-trade article from April 2026 reported that Valor Exterior Partners had acquired the company, expanding its footprint into southern Massachusetts and nearby coastal islands. The reviews on file describe a company that handles both routine roof replacements and unusual, technically difficult jobs. Reviewers repeatedly name specific staff — John MacDonald, Paul Lynch, and Matt Berry among them — for responsive, professional service, from straightforward re-roofs to a slate-and-copper roof with multiple flat-roof balconies and a red cedar-and-copper roof on a waterfront home. A 2025 review said John MacDonald correctly diagnosed a sunroom leak that two other companies had misdiagnosed, and a January 2026 review said the company returned more than 10 years after an original installation to evaluate and address a warranty issue at no charge. Multiple winter reviews describe same-day or next-day ice-dam and snow removal during storms. The one substantive complaint on file is a 2023 review describing repeated, aggressive follow-up calls and a snarky voicemail over a bill the reviewer had already paid in full the day after receiving it — a billing-communication issue, not a complaint about the roofing work itself, which the reviewer said was addressed promptly. For roofing work in the Braintree and South Shore area, including Martha's Vineyard, this is a licensed, long-established contractor with a consistent, detailed track record on jobs ranging from routine to complex.

As the management team at Vineyard Harbor Motel, we cannot speak highly enough of our recent experience with Associate Roofing. We contracted with them to completely replace the flat roof on our property, and they exceeded our expectations at every single step of the process. Running a busy motel means that guest comfort and safety are always our top priorities. Going into a major construction project like a full roof replacement, we were naturally concerned about noise, debris, and potential disruptions to our daily operations and our guests' stays. Thankfully, we didn't need to worry. The team at Associate Roofing was incredibly professional, communicative, and accommodating from day one. Their crew arrived punctually each morning, maintained a remarkably clean worksite, and went out of their way to minimize noise and disruptions. The project managers kept us in the loop with regular updates, ensuring there were no surprises regarding the timeline or the budget. As for the work itself, the new flat roof is flawless. Commercial flat roofing requires a high level of specific expertise, especially for a coastal property exposed to harbor weather, and it’s clear that Associate Roofing brings top-tier craftsmanship to the table. We now have total peace of mind knowing our building and our guests are perfectly protected from the elements for years to come. If you are a business owner, property manager, or homeowner in need of reliable, high-quality roofing services, look no further. Associate Roofing has earned our absolute highest recommendation and a well-deserved five stars. Thank you to the whole crew for a seamless project! — The Team at Vineyard Harbor Motel - Private Beach
I had an excellent experience with this roofing company, and I want to give special thanks to John Macdonald, who was the main reason I chose to work with them. John was incredibly patient, professional, and thoughtful throughout the entire project. He took the time to explain every detail clearly, answered all my questions, and made sure I felt confident at every step. His honesty and dedication truly set him apart. I also want to thank Manny,Matthew Berry and Paul Lynch for their hard work and professionalism. They were attentive, respectful, and clearly skilled at what they do. The team worked efficiently, kept the area clean, and treated my home with real care. It’s rare to find a team that combines craftsmanship, communication, and genuine kindness. I’m very grateful for everything they did and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality roofing work.
Associate Roofing did an excellent job replacing our roof. From the outset Paul made recommendations, was prompt in delivering an estimate, installation date and communicated with us through the entire process. The installation was seamless and completed by a professional crew that was efficient and courteous in just one day. Our property was left in perfect condition. The company came highly recommended and we would not hesitate to recommend Associate Roofing for all roofing projects.
Mike and his team were great, very professional and responded quickly. Located the problem quickly and did a great job to mitigate the problem. Finished product was stronger than original construction. So nice to find a contractor who cares about every detail and proud to stand by his work.
Wonderful service and communication. The team was swift, competent, and considerate. It was a LOT of money, but my roof was a spongy mess after a really terrible TRI job before I bought the house, so cutting corners would only have delayed the inevitable. It feels good knowing the job was handled by a trustworthy company, and Mike and Matt were fantastic to deal with.
