"Highest quality shingles I've seen. The crew was incredibly respectful and the cleanup was so thorough you couldn't tell they were even there."
"Prompt estimate and the price was fair. My new roof looks fantastic. It's rare to find such honest contractors these days."
Look for "The Big Five": 1. Curled, cracked, or missing shingles. 2. Excessive granules in gutters (looks like coarse sand). 3. Water stains on interior ceilings or in the attic. 4. Visible sagging. 5. Age—asphalt roofs over 20 years old are nearing the end of their reliable life.
Flashing is a thin metal material installed at "high-risk" areas like chimneys, vents, and valleys to direct water away from joints. Because these are the most common points for leaks, high-quality flashing is your roof's best defense against water damage.
It depends on the "Rule of 30%." If damage is localized (like a few blown-off shingles) and affects less than 30% of the roof, a repair is often sufficient. However, if the roof is old or showing widespread wear, a full replacement is more cost-effective in the long run.
Absolutely. Steeper "high-pitch" roofs are ideal for asphalt shingles or metal because they shed water quickly. Low-slope or flat roofs require specialized waterproof membranes like TPO or EPDM to prevent "ponding" water from seeping through.
In CT, materials must handle heavy snow, ice dams, and high humidity. Architectural Asphalt Shingles are the most popular for their durability and value. For longevity, Metal Roofing is excellent at shedding snow, while Synthetic Slate offers a classic look with modern weather resistance.
Most residential projects are completed in just 1 to 2 days. This includes the tear-off of old materials, installation of the new system, and a thorough magnetic sweep of your property to ensure no stray nails are left behind.
Usually, yes—if the damage is "sudden and accidental," such as from a storm, fallen tree, or hail. However, insurance typically does not cover damage caused by lack of maintenance or normal wear and tear due to age.
Twice a year—once in the spring and once in the late fall. In Connecticut, clogged gutters are the leading cause of ice dams and basement flooding. If your gutters are sagging, leaking at the seams, or pulling away from the house, they likely need professional repair.
Yes. A professional job includes two types: 1. A Manufacturer Warranty (covering the shingles themselves) and 2. A Workmanship Warranty (covering the actual installation). We offer industry-leading warranties to ensure your investment is protected for decades.
Seamless gutters are custom-fabricated on-site to the exact dimensions of your home. Because they have no joints between corners, they eliminate the most common leak points. They are stronger, look better, and require significantly less maintenance than sectional gutters.
