Roofing Services in Tillamook, OR
J&K Roofing has been working Tillamook County since 1956, long enough to know the difference between a roof on a working farm out toward Trask River and a coastal-exposed home up toward Cape Meares.
Tillamook gets some of the highest rainfall in Oregon, 90+ inches a year on average, and the roofing approach reflects that. Repair, replacement, new construction, all licensed and insured.

Why Roofing Is Different in Tillamook
Tillamook sits in a rain pocket. The Coast Range catches westerly weather and dumps it on Tillamook County: 90 to 120 inches of rain per year depending on exact location, with the heaviest months running October through March.
What that means for a roof:
- Underlayment is everything. A 90-inch-rain roof needs full coverage ice-and-water shield on the deck, not just valleys. Marginal underlayment shows up as deck rot in 8–10 years.
- Ventilation matters more here than in drier areas. Attic moisture buildup is constant. Proper ridge vents and intake at the eaves prevent sheathing rot from below.
- Coastal-adjacent salt exposure on properties closer to the bay or out toward Bay City and Garibaldi. Standard inland fasteners corrode faster than they should.
- Dairy-country housing stock tends toward modest, single-story farmhouses and bungalows. Replacements are usually straightforward composition jobs, but the moisture margin is unforgiving, so the spec has to be right.

Questions
Frequently Asked Questions in Tillamook
Do I need a permit to re-roof in Tillamook?
Yes. Tillamook County issues the permit for re-roof projects. We pull the permit and handle the inspection. Properties with coastal-zone designation may have additional requirements; we handle that during the estimate.
Why does Tillamook need a different underlayment than Portland?
90+ inches of annual rain is roughly 2–3× what Portland gets. Standard synthetic underlayment is rated for normal exposure; on a Tillamook roof, water under shingles isn’t a question of “if” but “how much.” Full deck-coverage ice-and-water shield costs more upfront but protects the sheathing from the moisture that inevitably gets through.
What roofing material works best in Tillamook County?
For most Tillamook homes, Class 4 architectural asphalt shingles with proper underlayment is the right balance of cost and performance. Standing-seam metal is a good option for higher-spec homes or properties with significant wind exposure (closer to the coast). Cedar shake is rare for new installs because of the moisture environment.
How much does a Tillamook re-roof cost?
For a typical 1,400–1,800 sq ft farmhouse or bungalow: $10,000–$18,000 with architectural shingles. Coastal-exposed homes with upgraded specs run higher.
When is the best time to roof in Tillamook?
Mid-July through mid-September is the only reliably dry stretch. The weather window here is tighter than the Willamette Valley. We book ahead and don’t gamble on shoulder-season forecasts.
Do you cover Bay City, Garibaldi, and the rest of Tillamook County?
Yes. We cover the full Tillamook County service area: Tillamook, Bay City, Garibaldi, Pacific City, Netarts, Oceanside, and the smaller communities along the coast.
What's your warranty?
10-year J&K labor warranty, transferable. Manufacturer material warranty (30–50 years on architectural shingles) on top.
