What You Get When It's Done Right

You stop worrying about water damage every time it rains. Your energy bills drop because your roof actually insulates like it should. You sleep better knowing your family is protected under a roof built to handle whatever Connecticut weather throws at it.

That’s what happens when roofing is done right the first time. No callbacks for leaks that should have been fixed. No surprise failures two years later because corners were cut on materials or installation.

You get a roof that works. Period. One that handles the ice dams we get here in eastern Connecticut, sheds snow properly, and keeps doing its job year after year without constant repairs eating into your budget.

Occum Roofing Contractor Experience

We Know Connecticut Roofs

We’ve been handling roofing projects throughout eastern Connecticut for years. We understand how ice dams form on roofs here, which materials hold up best against our winters, and how to install everything properly so it lasts.

We’re licensed, insured, and based right here in the area. When you call, you’re talking to people who live and work in these communities, not some call center three states away.

You’ll get straight answers about what your roof needs, realistic timelines for the work, and pricing that reflects quality without the markup you’d pay larger companies with fancy offices and big advertising budgets.

Roofing Process Occum CT

Here's How We Handle Your Project

First, we come out and actually look at your roof. Not just from the ground with binoculars, but up there where we can see what’s really going on. We’ll show you any problems, explain what needs to be done, and give you a written estimate that covers everything.

Once you’re ready to move forward, we handle the permits and order materials. We protect your landscaping and property before we start, then remove old roofing carefully so debris doesn’t damage anything below.

Installation follows manufacturer specifications exactly. We don’t skip steps or use shortcuts that cause problems later. When we’re done, we clean up completely and walk through everything with you so you know exactly what was done and how to maintain your new roof.

Complete Roofing Services Connecticut

What's Included In Our Service

You get complete roof replacement or repair using materials designed for Connecticut weather. That means proper underlayment, ice and water shield where needed, and shingles or other roofing materials that handle our freeze-thaw cycles.

We handle storm damage repairs quickly because we know water damage gets worse every day you wait. Emergency tarping when necessary, then permanent repairs done right so the problem doesn’t come back.

Every project includes proper ventilation setup, gutter work if needed, and cleanup that leaves your property looking better than when we started. You’ll get warranty information in writing and know exactly who to call if you ever have questions down the road.

How long does a typical roof replacement take in Occum?

Most residential roof replacements take 2-4 days depending on the size of your home and weather conditions. We start early and work efficiently, but we don’t rush critical steps like proper underlayment installation or flashing work around chimneys and vents. Connecticut weather can add delays, especially during winter months, but we’ll keep you updated throughout the process and protect your home with tarps if needed between work days.

What roofing materials work best for Connecticut weather?

Architectural shingles perform well here because they handle our freeze-thaw cycles and high winds better than basic three-tab shingles. Metal roofing is excellent for shedding snow and ice, though it costs more upfront. The key is proper installation with adequate ice and water shield, especially around eaves and valleys where ice dams typically form. We’ll recommend materials based on your budget, home style, and specific exposure to weather patterns in your area.

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

Age is the biggest factor – most asphalt shingle roofs need replacement after 20-25 years in Connecticut’s climate. But we also look at missing or curling shingles, granule loss, multiple leak points, and the condition of flashing and underlayment. If you’re spending money on frequent repairs, replacement usually makes more financial sense. We’ll give you an honest assessment of whether repairs will actually solve your problems or just delay the inevitable.

Can you help with insurance claims for storm damage?

Yes, we work with insurance companies regularly and can help document storm damage properly. We’ll provide detailed estimates that match what adjusters expect to see, including photos and material specifications. The key is getting damage assessed quickly after storms – waiting too long can complicate claims. We can also spot damage that homeowners might miss, like compromised flashing or subtle shingle damage that leads to leaks later if not addressed.

What's your warranty on roofing work?

Our workmanship warranty covers installation issues for several years, and manufacturer warranties on materials vary by product – typically 25-50 years for shingles. We’ll explain exactly what’s covered before you sign anything. The important thing is that we stand behind our work and we’re local, so you can actually reach us if problems develop. We’ve seen too many homeowners stuck with warranties from companies that disappear or don’t honor their commitments.

Do you offer emergency roof repair services?

Yes, we handle emergency repairs for storm damage, fallen trees, and sudden leaks. We prioritize emergency calls because water damage gets worse every hour you wait. Emergency service includes temporary protection like tarping, then permanent repairs as soon as weather permits. We keep common repair materials in stock so we can respond quickly without waiting for special orders. Call us immediately if you have active leaks or storm damage – don’t wait until regular business hours.
