Roofing in Old Town: What Makes It Different

Old Town is Albuquerque’s original settlement, and much of its adobe architecture predates modern building codes entirely. Roofs here are almost universally flat or low slope, drained through canales cut into thick adobe parapet walls, some of which have been repaired and recoated many times over the decades. Getting the coating and drainage right matters more here than almost anywhere else in the city, since these buildings were not engineered with modern flat roof membranes in mind.

Many Old Town properties are also commercial, part of the shops and galleries that define the district, which means roof work often has to be scheduled around business hours and foot traffic. We coordinate timing with property and business owners to minimize disruption while still getting the work done right.

Roofing in Old Town Albuquerque

Old Town is Albuquerque’s original 1706 plaza, a roughly 0.8-square-mile historic district near the Rio Grande just west of Downtown and next to the ABQ BioPark.

Old Town’s protected historic district status and adobe-style construction mean roofing work here often has to match strict architectural guidelines — we’ve handled repairs and replacements on the historic flat and pitched roofs found throughout the plaza area.

From the shops along the plaza to the residential streets nearby, we know how to work within Old Town’s historic character.
