Poquonock Bridge Roofing Company

We Know Connecticut Roofs

Sullivan Contracting has been fixing and replacing roofs in southeastern Connecticut for years. We understand how nor’easters, ice dams, and heavy snow loads affect your roof differently than they would in other states.

You’re not getting a contractor who learned roofing in Florida and moved north. You’re getting people who’ve been dealing with Connecticut weather challenges since day one.

We’re licensed, insured, and we show up when we say we will. That shouldn’t be remarkable, but apparently it is in this business.

Roofing Contractor Process

Here's How We Handle It

First, we actually look at your roof. Not a quick glance from the driveway – a real inspection where we check for damage you can’t see from the ground.

Then we give you a written estimate that breaks down exactly what needs to be done and what it costs. No surprises, no “additional work we discovered” that doubles your bill.

During the work, we protect your property and clean up each day. When we’re done, we walk through everything with you and make sure you’re satisfied before we consider the job complete. You get warranty information in writing, not just a handshake and a promise.

Roof Repair and Replacement

What's Included in Every Job

Every roofing project gets a thorough inspection of your roof deck, flashing, gutters, and ventilation. We don’t just replace shingles and call it done.

You get quality materials designed for New England weather. We’re talking about ice and water shield where it matters, proper ventilation to prevent ice dams, and flashing that won’t fail in two years.

We handle permit applications, insurance documentation if you’re filing a claim, and coordinate inspections. The job site stays clean and safe throughout the project. Your landscaping and property get protected with tarps and barriers, not left to chance.

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

Age and damage extent determine this. If your roof is over 20 years old and you’re seeing multiple leaks, missing shingles, or granule loss, replacement usually makes more financial sense than ongoing repairs. We’ll inspect your roof deck, flashing, and underlayment to give you an honest assessment. Sometimes a roof that looks bad from the ground just needs targeted repairs. Other times, what seems like a small leak indicates bigger structural issues that require replacement.

What should I expect during a Connecticut roof replacement project?

Most residential roof replacements take 2-4 days depending on size and weather. We start by protecting your landscaping and property with tarps. Old materials get stripped down to the deck, which we inspect for damage. New underlayment, ice and water shield, and shingles go on systematically. We clean up debris daily and do a final walkthrough with you. Weather delays happen – we don’t work in unsafe conditions, but we’ll communicate schedule changes immediately.

Will my homeowner's insurance cover roof damage from storms?

Storm damage is typically covered, but you need to document everything properly. Take photos of damage before any temporary repairs. Contact your insurance company within a reasonable timeframe after the storm. We can help you understand what your adjuster is looking for and provide detailed estimates that match insurance requirements. Wind damage, hail damage, and damage from fallen trees are usually covered. Wear and tear or maintenance issues are not.

How much does roof replacement cost in Connecticut?

Residential roof replacement typically runs $8,000-$25,000 depending on size, materials, and complexity. Factors that affect cost include roof pitch, number of penetrations, chimney work, and material choice. Architectural shingles cost more than basic three-tab but last longer. We provide written estimates that break down labor, materials, and any additional work needed. Emergency repairs usually cost $300-$1,500 depending on the extent of damage and accessibility.

What roofing materials work best for Connecticut weather?

Architectural shingles with proper ice and water shield work well for most Connecticut homes. The key is proper installation with adequate ventilation to prevent ice dams. We use synthetic underlayment that won’t tear in wind and quality flashing around chimneys and valleys. Metal roofing performs excellently in snow but costs more upfront. Avoid basic three-tab shingles – they don’t hold up well to our freeze-thaw cycles and wind conditions.

How do I choose a reliable roofing contractor in Connecticut?

Check licensing through the Connecticut Department of Consumer Protection and verify insurance coverage. Get written estimates from multiple contractors and compare what’s included, not just the bottom line price. Ask for recent local references and drive by some completed projects if possible. Avoid door-to-door contractors after storms and anyone demanding full payment upfront. A reliable contractor will provide detailed contracts, proper permits, and warranty information in writing.
