New Roof Installation Process

How We Install Your New Roof

We start with a thorough inspection of your existing roof structure. This tells us if there’s any decking damage or structural issues that need addressing before installation begins.

Next, we handle all permit requirements and material ordering. You don’t need to figure out Connecticut building codes or coordinate deliveries. We manage those details so your project stays on schedule.

Installation begins with complete removal of old materials and proper disposal. We inspect and repair any decking issues, then install your new roof system from the deck up. This includes proper underlayment, ventilation, and flashing details that prevent future problems.

Throughout the process, we protect your landscaping and property. Daily cleanup means you’re not living in a construction zone, and final cleanup leaves your property cleaner than we found it.

Your roof installation includes everything needed for a complete, long-lasting system. We don’t cut corners on underlayment or ventilation components that other contractors might skip to save money.

How long does a complete roof installation take in Stonington?

Most residential roof installations in Stonington take 2-4 days depending on size, complexity, and weather conditions. Simple ranch homes often complete in 2 days, while larger colonials or homes with multiple dormers may take 3-4 days. We factor in Connecticut weather when scheduling since we won’t install materials in rain or high winds. During winter months, we may need additional days due to shorter daylight hours and temperature requirements for proper installation. We’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront and keep you updated if weather causes any delays.

What roofing materials work best for Connecticut coastal weather?

Architectural asphalt shingles perform well in Connecticut’s climate when properly installed with adequate ventilation. For coastal areas like Stonington, we recommend shingles rated for high winds and impact resistance. Metal roofing is excellent for longevity and snow shedding but costs more upfront. We don’t recommend basic 3-tab shingles for our climate since they don’t handle temperature extremes well. The key is proper installation with quality underlayment and ventilation regardless of material choice. We’ll recommend specific products based on your home’s exposure, budget, and long-term goals during our consultation.

Do you handle insurance claims for storm damage roof replacement?

Yes, we work with insurance companies regularly for storm damage claims in the Stonington area. We can meet with your adjuster to ensure all damage is properly documented and covered. Our detailed estimates help support your claim with specific material and labor costs insurers expect to see. We understand what insurance companies approve and how to present information that speeds up the claims process. However, we always recommend getting your own independent inspection before filing a claim to understand the full scope of damage. We can guide you through the process but the insurance relationship is between you and your carrier.

How do you prevent ice dams during roof installation?

Proper ventilation is the key to preventing ice dams on Connecticut roofs. We install adequate intake vents at the soffits and exhaust vents at the ridge to maintain consistent airflow under the roof deck. This keeps the roof surface temperature even, preventing the freeze-thaw cycle that creates ice dams. We also install ice and water shield membrane in vulnerable areas like eaves, valleys, and around penetrations. Proper insulation in the attic space is equally important – we’ll identify any insulation issues during installation. Many ice dam problems stem from inadequate ventilation in the original roof design, which we correct during replacement.

What warranty comes with your roof installation work?

Our workmanship warranty covers installation defects and labor issues for several years after completion. Material warranties vary by manufacturer but typically range from 25-50 years depending on the product chosen. We provide all warranty documentation and registration information at project completion. If any installation-related issues arise during the warranty period, we return to make corrections at no charge. This covers things like loose flashing, fastener issues, or ventilation problems related to our installation. Normal wear, storm damage, or maintenance issues aren’t warranty items, but we’re always available for repairs when needed.

How much does roof installation cost in Stonington CT?

Roof installation costs in Stonington typically range from $12,000-$25,000 for most homes, depending on size, material choice, and complexity. Simple ranch homes with basic architectural shingles cost less than large colonials with multiple dormers and premium materials. Factors affecting price include roof pitch, number of penetrations, chimney work, and accessibility. We provide detailed written estimates that break down material and labor costs so you understand exactly what you’re paying for. Beware of estimates significantly below market rates – they often indicate corner-cutting or surprise charges later. We price projects fairly upfront with no hidden costs or change orders.
