Lyme Connecticut Roofing Company

We Know Connecticut Roofs

We’ve been handling roofing projects in Lyme and surrounding Connecticut communities for years. We understand what works here and what doesn’t.

Connecticut weather is tough on roofs. Heavy snow, ice dams, summer storms—your roof takes a beating. We use materials and techniques that hold up to what you actually deal with, not what works somewhere else.

We’re licensed, insured, and local. When you call, you’re talking to people who live and work in your area, not a call center three states away.

Here's How We Handle It

First, we come out and actually look at your roof. Not just from the ground—we get up there and see what’s really going on. We check for damage you can’t see from your driveway.

Then we give you a straight answer about what needs to happen. If it’s a simple repair, we’ll tell you. If you need a full replacement, we’ll explain why and what your options are.

During the work, we protect your property and clean up our mess. We don’t leave nails in your driveway or materials scattered around your yard. When we’re done, your roof works right and your property looks like we were never there—except for the new roof.

How do I know if I need roof repair or full replacement?

Age is the biggest factor. Most asphalt shingle roofs in Connecticut last 20-25 years, depending on weather exposure and maintenance. If your roof is approaching that age and you’re dealing with multiple leaks, missing shingles, or granule loss, replacement usually makes more sense than patching problems. We’ll inspect your roof and give you an honest assessment. Sometimes a few strategic repairs can buy you several more years. Other times, continuing to patch an old roof just wastes your money.

What should I expect during a roofing project at my home?

Most residential roofing projects take 2-5 days, depending on size and complexity. We start early to maximize daylight hours. You’ll hear noise—there’s no way around that with roofing work. We use tarps to protect landscaping and magnetic tools to pick up nails. We’ll coordinate with you on things like moving cars and accessing power outlets. If weather interrupts the project, we secure everything so your home stays protected. We clean up daily and do a final cleanup when finished.

How much does roofing cost in the Lyme area?

Roofing costs depend on your roof size, pitch, material choice, and what we find when we remove old materials. Basic asphalt shingle replacement typically runs $8-12 per square foot. Premium materials or complex roof designs cost more. Repairs might be a few hundred dollars for minor issues or several thousand for extensive damage. We provide written estimates that break down materials and labor. No surprises or change orders unless we discover hidden damage that needs addressing for safety reasons.

Do you work with insurance companies on storm damage claims?

Yes, we regularly work with homeowners’ insurance companies on legitimate storm damage claims. We can meet with your adjuster and provide documentation of damage and repair needs. We know what insurance companies look for and how to present information clearly. However, we won’t inflate estimates or claim damage that isn’t really there—that’s insurance fraud and it hurts everyone. If you have storm damage, call your insurance company first, then call us to assess the damage and provide repair estimates.

What roofing materials work best in Connecticut weather?

Architectural asphalt shingles are the most popular choice here because they handle our weather well and offer good value. They’re designed for wind resistance and thermal cycling from our temperature swings. Metal roofing is excellent for snow shedding and longevity, though it costs more upfront. We don’t recommend basic 3-tab shingles for Connecticut—they don’t hold up to our storms and ice. Whatever material you choose, proper installation and ventilation matter more than brand names. A mediocre shingle installed correctly outperforms premium materials installed poorly.

How quickly can you respond to emergency roof repairs?

For true emergencies—active leaks or storm damage that’s letting water into your home—we typically respond within 24 hours, often sooner. We carry materials for temporary repairs and can usually stop immediate water intrusion quickly. However, permanent repairs might need to wait for better weather or material delivery. We’ll always secure your home first, then schedule proper repairs as soon as conditions allow. Keep in mind that after major storms, everyone needs help at once, so response times can be longer during those periods.
