Local Address In Dallas, PA
Roofs Up Here Work
Harder Than Most
Feet of snow sitting on the deck for weeks. Ice dams building along the eaves every thaw. Wind coming off the ridges hard enough to strip shingles. If you own a home up here, you already know your roof works harder than most — and you need a roofing company that knows the Poconos, not one that treats a mountain winter like a Philadelphia one.
Garrison has a local address in Dallas, PA, right in the Wilkes-Barre area — so we’re not an outside contractor driving in when it’s convenient. GAF Certified, 20+ years, working across Stroudsburg, East Stroudsburg, Mount Pocono, Wilkes-Barre, Scranton, and the towns in between.
Not The Same Problems
What Poconos Winters
Do to a Roof
Snow load, ice, and freeze-thaw cycles are the real enemies up here — and they cause damage in ways a lot of homeowners don’t catch until water is already coming through a ceiling.
01
Ice Dams
Heat escapes through the roof, snow melts, runs down to the cold eave, and refreezes. That ridge of ice backs water up under your shingles — usually a ventilation and insulation problem as much as a roofing one.
02
Snow Load
A heavy, wet snowpack puts serious weight on a roof. Older or already-weakened decking and flashing show their weak spots fast under that kind of load.
03
Wind & Storm Damage
Exposed ridges and open lots mean wind hits Poconos roofs harder. Lifted shingles, torn flashing, and downed limbs are routine after a bad storm.
04
Freeze-Thaw Cracking
Water gets into small gaps, freezes, expands, and pries them wider every cycle. A tiny crack in the fall can be an open leak by spring.
Just came through a storm? See our storm damage roof repair. When your roof springs a leak, a straightforward roof repair done right the first time is usually all it takes — and when the roof is past saving, we’ll tell you that too.
Weather Doesn’t Wait
24-Hour Emergency
Response
A tree comes down on your roof at 11 p.m. in a February storm. A leak opens up over a holiday weekend while the house is full. That’s exactly when you can’t get a roofer to answer the phone — and exactly when you need one most.
We get out, stop the water, and protect the inside of your home before the damage spreads into your insulation, drywall, and framing. We don’t put you on a list for next week.
Second Homes
Nobody There To Catch It
Built for Second Homes
& Vacation Properties
A lot of Poconos roofs sit over houses that aren’t lived in year-round. That’s a real problem, because a leak in an empty vacation home can run for weeks before anyone notices — and by then the damage is deep.
We work with second-home and vacation-property owners who need a roofer they can actually reach and trust to show up. We do a thorough inspection, document what we find with photos and a written report, and give you a straight answer on what your roof needs before the next season hits.
If you can’t be here to meet us, we handle it and send you the documentation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Garrison Roofing serve the Poconos and Luzerne County?
Yes. We have a local address in Dallas, PA, and serve the Poconos and Northeast PA, including Luzerne County, Monroe County, and the Wilkes-Barre and Scranton areas. Towns we cover include Stroudsburg, East Stroudsburg, Mount Pocono, and the surrounding communities. If you’re not sure whether your address is in range, give us a call and we’ll tell you straight.
How does winter weather in the Poconos affect roof lifespan?
Hard. Snow load, ice dams, and repeated freeze-thaw cycles put far more stress on a roof here than in milder areas. Ice dams force water up under shingles, snow weight strains decking and flashing, and freeze-thaw slowly pries small cracks open. A roof that might last 20-plus years in a gentler climate can wear out faster in the Poconos if it wasn’t installed with proper ventilation and ice protection.
What roofing materials hold up best in the Poconos climate?
For most Poconos homes, quality architectural asphalt shingles from a manufacturer like GAF, installed with proper ventilation and ice-and-water shield, hold up well and give you the best value. Metal roofing is another strong option up here — it sheds snow well and stands up to the weather — though it’s a bigger investment. The material matters, but honestly the install matters more: even the best shingle leaks if the flashing, ventilation, and ice protection weren’t done right.
