What You Get When It's Done Right

You get a roof that actually handles what Connecticut throws at it. Ice dams, heavy snow loads, summer storms – your new roof installation is built to take it all without letting you down.

No more lying awake during storms wondering if water’s getting in. No more emergency calls to roofers because something wasn’t installed properly the first time. Just solid protection that lets you focus on everything else that matters.

The difference shows up in your energy bills too. Proper installation means better insulation performance, which means your heating and cooling systems don’t have to work overtime. Your home stays comfortable year-round, and you’re not throwing money away on wasted energy.

We Know Connecticut Roofs Inside Out

Sullivan Contracting has been handling roof installations across Connecticut for years, and we’ve seen what works and what doesn’t in this climate. We’re not the guys who show up, slap on some shingles, and disappear.

We’re local contractors who understand that your roof needs to handle ice dams in February and severe thunderstorms in July. Every installation we do in Chesterfield reflects that reality. We use materials rated for New England weather and installation techniques that account for our specific challenges.

When you call us, you’re working with people who’ve been doing this long enough to know the difference between a roof that looks good and one that actually protects your home.

Roof Installation Process Connecticut

Here's Exactly How We Handle Your Project

First, we come out and assess your current roof and underlying structure. We’re looking for any issues that need addressing before new materials go on – because covering up problems just creates bigger problems later.

Next, we provide you with a detailed estimate that breaks down materials, labor, and timeline. No surprises, no “unforeseen circumstances” that suddenly cost extra. You know what you’re paying and when the work gets done.

Installation day, we protect your property and landscaping before we start. Old materials come off carefully, and we inspect the decking underneath. Any repairs get handled before your new roof goes on. We clean up completely each day because we know you still have to live there.

What's Included in Your Roof Installation

Your roof installation includes complete removal of old materials, inspection and repair of underlying decking, and installation of new underlayment, flashing, and roofing materials. We handle permits, cleanup, and disposal of all old materials.

We also address ventilation during installation because proper airflow prevents ice dams and extends your roof’s life. Most contractors skip this step, but it’s critical for Connecticut homes. Your installation includes ridge vents, soffit vents, or other ventilation solutions your home needs.

Every installation comes with manufacturer warranties on materials and our workmanship warranty. We also provide you with documentation for insurance purposes and maintenance recommendations to keep your new roof performing properly for decades.

How long does a complete roof installation take in Chesterfield?

Most residential roof installations in Chesterfield take 2-4 days, depending on your home’s size and complexity. Weather can extend this timeline – we won’t install roofing materials in unsafe conditions or when rain is forecast. We’d rather take an extra day than compromise the installation quality. We’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront and keep you updated if anything changes. The goal is getting your roof done right, not just done fast.

What roofing materials work best for Connecticut weather?

Architectural shingles rated for high winds and impact resistance work well for most Connecticut homes. They handle our freeze-thaw cycles better than basic 3-tab shingles and offer better wind resistance for summer storms. Metal roofing is another excellent option – it sheds snow and ice effectively and lasts longer, though the upfront cost is higher. We’ll recommend materials based on your home’s specific needs, your budget, and how long you plan to stay in the house.

How much does roof installation cost in Chesterfield, CT?

Roof installation costs vary based on your home’s size, roof complexity, materials chosen, and any underlying repairs needed. Most installations in Chesterfield range from $12,000 to $25,000 for architectural shingles. Factors that affect cost include roof pitch, number of penetrations, chimney work, and decking repairs. We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs so you understand exactly what you’re paying for. No hidden fees or surprise charges.

Do you handle permits and inspections for roof installation?

Yes, we handle all permit applications and schedule required inspections with Chesterfield building officials. Roof installations typically require permits, and we make sure everything meets local building codes and manufacturer specifications. We coordinate with inspectors and address any issues that come up during the process. This is part of our service – you shouldn’t have to navigate municipal requirements yourself when you’re already dealing with a major home improvement project.

What happens if it rains during my roof installation?

We monitor weather forecasts carefully and plan installation phases around predicted rain. If unexpected weather hits, we have tarps and temporary protection to keep your home dry. We won’t remove your old roof if rain is forecast within 24 hours – that’s just asking for trouble. If we’re caught mid-installation by sudden weather, we stop work immediately and secure everything until conditions improve. Your home’s protection comes first, even if it means extending the project timeline.

How do I know if I need complete roof replacement or just repairs?

If your roof is over 20 years old, has multiple leak areas, missing or damaged shingles across large sections, or visible sagging, replacement usually makes more sense than repairs. Granule loss, cracked or curling shingles, and daylight visible through the roof boards are also signs replacement is needed. We’ll give you an honest assessment – sometimes repairs can buy you a few more years, and sometimes they’re just throwing money away. We’ll explain what we see and why we recommend replacement or repairs based on your specific situation.
