You shouldn’t have to wonder if your roof will hold up through the next storm. When your roof works properly, you sleep better knowing your family and belongings stay dry and protected.

A solid roof means lower energy bills too. No more heat escaping through gaps or cold spots in winter. No more water stains on your ceiling or scrambling for buckets when it rains.

You get peace of mind that comes from knowing your home’s biggest investment is secure. That’s what happens when your roofing contractor actually knows what they’re doing and uses materials built for Connecticut weather.

Our Roofing Process

Here's How We Handle Your Roof

First, we inspect your roof thoroughly. Not just from the ground – we get up there and check everything. Shingles, flashing, gutters, ventilation. We document what we find and explain it in plain English.

Next, we give you a clear estimate. No hidden fees or surprise costs later. If insurance is involved, we help you navigate that process and work directly with your adjuster.

Then we do the work. We protect your property, use quality materials, and clean up completely when we’re done. You get a warranty on our work and direct contact information if you ever have questions later.

Complete Roofing Solutions

Everything Your Roof Needs

We handle roof repairs, full replacements, and emergency storm damage. Whether you need a few shingles replaced or a complete new roof, we use materials designed for Connecticut’s climate.

Our services include gutter installation and repair, because your roof system only works when water flows away from your house properly. We also handle ice dam prevention and ventilation improvements that keep your energy bills reasonable.

Every job includes cleanup and a final walkthrough. You’ll know exactly what we did and why. Most importantly, you get our direct contact information for any questions down the road.

How quickly can you respond to emergency roof repairs?

We prioritize emergency calls and typically respond within 24 hours, often sooner depending on the situation. If your roof is actively leaking or has storm damage, we’ll get there as quickly as possible to prevent further damage to your home. We carry tarps and emergency materials to secure your roof temporarily if needed while we arrange for permanent repairs. During severe weather events, response times may be longer due to high demand, but we maintain a list of emergency calls and work through them systematically.

Do you help with insurance claims for roof damage?

Yes, we work with insurance companies regularly and can help guide you through the claims process. We provide detailed documentation of damage, including photos and written assessments that insurance adjusters need. We can meet with your adjuster on-site to ensure all damage is properly identified and documented. While we can’t guarantee claim approval, our experience helps homeowners present their case effectively. We also provide estimates in the format insurance companies prefer, which speeds up the approval process.

What type of roofing materials work best in Connecticut?

Asphalt shingles remain the most popular choice in Connecticut because they handle our weather well and offer good value. We recommend architectural shingles over basic three-tab shingles for better wind resistance and longer life. For homes with specific architectural styles, we also install metal roofing, slate, and cedar shakes. The key is proper installation with adequate underlayment and ventilation. We’ll recommend materials based on your home’s style, your budget, and how long you plan to stay in the house.

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

Age is the biggest factor – most asphalt shingle roofs last 20-25 years in Connecticut. If your roof is approaching that age and you’re seeing multiple issues like missing shingles, granule loss, or small leaks, replacement often makes more sense than ongoing repairs. However, newer roofs with localized damage from storms or fallen branches usually just need repairs. We’ll give you an honest assessment of whether repairs will solve your problems long-term or if you’re better off replacing the roof now.

What causes ice dams and how do you prevent them?

Ice dams form when heat escapes through your roof, melting snow that then refreezes at the roof edge where it’s colder. The ice blocks proper drainage, causing water to back up under shingles. Prevention involves proper attic insulation to keep heat inside your house, adequate ventilation to keep the roof deck cold, and sometimes adding heating cables in problem areas. We can assess your attic insulation and ventilation during roof inspections and recommend improvements that prevent ice dam formation.

How long does a typical roof replacement take?

Most residential roof replacements in North Franklin take 1-3 days, depending on the size of your house, weather conditions, and complexity of the roof design. Simple ranch homes often get done in one day, while larger homes with multiple levels or complex rooflines may take longer. We’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront and keep you updated if weather or unexpected issues affect our schedule. We work efficiently but never rush quality. Your roof needs to be done right, and that’s more important than finishing fast.
