INroof.solar is an Amesbury manufacturer of standing-seam metal roofing with integrated solar thermal collectors. The company says the roof system can provide heat for domestic hot water, radiant floors, forced-air heating, ice melt and pools, and says its Nor'easter panels carry ICC-SRCC certification. Its Houzz profile lists roofing, insulation and several solar-thermal services; Procore also lists electrical work. The written mentions are limited and dated. In 2018, a project article described an INroof commercial installation at Johnson Lumber in Salisbury that used solar thermal energy for space heating. A 2017 industry post said its author was impressed after meeting the team at a Boston trade show. These older accounts show a commercial installation and product discussions, but they do not establish a current residential project history. Before booking, clarify whether INroof will manufacture and supply the roof system or whether the project also includes installation by a local roofer; the company describes itself as a manufacturer and says it works with local roofing contractors. It is best suited to projects where an integrated solar-thermal metal roof fits the building plan.
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from INroof.solar. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.
A square is 100 sq ft of roof surface — bigger than the floor plan because of pitch and overhangs.
Estimated range

“I attended a trade show in Boston recently and had the pleasure of meeting some of the fine folks from INroof Solar. They took the time to carefully explain their product features and benefits.”
