Cathlamet Washington Roofing Contractor
Licensed · Bonded · Insured | Roofing Cathlamet, Puget Island & the Lower Columbia
Integrity to the Core
Cathlamet and Puget Island sit on the Lower Columbia, surrounded by river, farmland, and steep timbered hills. It isn't the open ocean, but the weather is just as demanding: heavy rain through fall, winter, and spring, wind funneling up and down the river, and tall evergreens that keep roofs shaded and damp for months.

We're based in Astoria, we answer the phone 24/7, and we're rated 5.0 stars from more than 100 Google reviews.

Our Integrity
Owner Christopher (Chris) Horton built Apple Roofing on Integrity to the Core. In a rural community where neighbors talk, that means fair, straightforward bids, honest advice about what your roof really needs, and crews who respect your property and clean up completely.
Our Core Beliefs
Rural homes, farm buildings, and riverfront properties each come with their own challenges – steep slopes, long drives, and roofs that have been patched over the years. We take the time to understand your property and give you options that make sense for how you use it.
Homeowners, Farms & New Builds
From older homes in town to farmhouses on Puget Island and new builds on the hillsides, we roof it all – and we can work alongside your builder on new construction.
Some of Our Reviews
“Our new construction home on the Columbia river really needed the best protection from 80-100 inches of rain a year and a cool modern look. So that meant siding the house with metal as well as the roof.”
— David, Columbia River new build
“When it was time for the work to be done, his crew was very pleasant, hard working, and they cleaned up the work site when they were done which was much appreciated. Highly recommended for the Naselle-Grays River Valley.”
— Jeff, Naselle-Grays River
“Christopher Horton, founder/CEO of this business knows about kindness and generosity! He helped us out while he was doing a job in Westport.”
— Tammy, Westport
“Only a few weeks after initial contact, we have a beautiful new roof on our 100 year old farmhouse!”
— Mitch
Our Cathlamet Services
Roof Replacement
When an older roof leaks, sags, or holds moss year-round, replacement protects the home and the structure underneath. We inspect decking and flashing and explain your options. Learn about roof replacement
Metal Roofing & Siding
Metal sheds rain and debris and stands up well to wind, which makes it a popular choice for homes and farm buildings along the river. We also install metal siding for a clean, durable exterior.
New-Construction Roofing
Building on a hillside or riverfront lot? We work with owners and builders on custom details so the new roof is done right from day one.
Barn & Outbuilding Re-Roofs
We re-roof barns, shops, and outbuildings to keep equipment, hay, and gear dry.
Roof Repair & Emergency Leaks
Storm damage or a sudden leak? Call us 24/7 and we'll work to stop the water quickly.
Gutters & Moss Treatment
Tall firs and constant rain fill gutters and grow moss fast. We clean, repair, and replace gutters and treat moss-covered roofs.
Roofing for Lower Columbia Conditions
River rain and wind: The Columbia River corridor channels wind past Cathlamet and Puget Island, and long rainy seasons test every seam and flashing. Roofs here need to shed water quickly and hold up to gusts.
Shade and evergreen debris: Homes tucked against the hills and timber stay shaded and damp, which speeds up moss growth and keeps gutters full of needles.
Farmhouses and older homes: Many homes in the area are older, with additions and roofs that have been repaired many times. We inspect carefully and explain what we find before work begins.
Where we work: We serve Cathlamet, Puget Island, Skamokawa, and Grays River on the Washington side, and Westport and Clatskanie-area homes on the Oregon side.
Planning your project: Requirements vary by project and jurisdiction. Check with the Town of Cathlamet or Wahkiakum County (or Columbia County, OR, for Westport) before major work, and we'll help you understand what applies.
