Jim Cram, Chair of the Committee recalls, “In my early meetings with Jeff Taylor I was so impressed with his knowledge of how to detail the various flashings and connections required for our job that I became very comfortable with assigning Viking Roofing the project. Then, as the job was installed and they were able to make a 200-year-old barn with a 100 foot-ridge look perfectly straight, I knew I could recommend them to anyone. ”Viking Roof selected a metal roof with a color that would blend with the time period while meeting modern codes and expectations. We custom fabricated the different fascia profiles. Then we added subdued stainless steel snow rails above the doors to protect community members from rain and snow as they entered the building. The Town of Hollis is now enjoying their 21st century community center in a building restored to the glory of 200 years ago.

The
town of Hollis, New Hampshire received a wonderful gift: a 1760s
English-style barn. The town decided to convert the barn into a
community center. But how could they keep its historic integrity
while accommodating the needs of a 21st century building? For example,
the barn needed a new roof, yet the roof ought to look like it belonged
on a 200-year-old structure.The Lawrence Barn Committee chose Viking
Roofing, Inc., to design and install the roof.
