Visocchi Roofing Company

Ice dams are apparently Visocchi Roofing's specialty in a Waltham winter — five different reviews describe Chris Visocchi and his crew showing up the same day or the next morning to hammer off ice and stop water damage before it spreads. The business traces back to 1982, when Bruno Visocchi started Visocchi Construction; his son Chris relaunched it as Visocchi Roofing in 2010 and still runs it, handling roof replacement, repair, and gutter work across Waltham, Newton, Cambridge, and the rest of Metrowest. The written record backs the reputation up: 41 reviews from 2022 through this year, every one five stars, with the last six months alone accounting for 16 of them and nothing negative in that stretch. The specifics repeat — a 1895 Victorian in Newton had a 25-year-old shingle roof stripped and replaced in two days despite steep valleys, an old house's deteriorated flashing got sorted out in a 2024 job, and a historic roof's replacement tile was matched to the original. More than one reviewer mentioned the crew going past the job itself — one noted Chris's team hauling off unused internet cable along their chimney as an unasked-for favor. There's not much of a downside to point to. BBB gives the company an A+ rating, though it isn't an accredited business, and lists 21 years in business — a figure that doesn't quite square with the 2010 founding date the company gives for itself. For a leaking roof or a stubborn ice dam around Waltham, this is a company reviewers keep coming back to; the main thing worth confirming going in is simply how fast they can get to you, since speed is what most of the praise comes down to.
