Your Roof Problems Actually Get Solved

You’re not just getting a patch job that fails next winter. You’re getting a roofing system designed to handle what coastal Connecticut throws at it – from hurricane-force winds to heavy snow loads to salt air that eats through inferior materials.

When we’re done, you stop worrying about the next storm. No more buckets in the attic or wondering if that stain on the ceiling is getting bigger. Your roof becomes the protection it’s supposed to be, not another source of stress.

The difference shows up in your insurance premiums, your energy bills, and your peace of mind. You get a roof that works, backed by people who live and work right here in Stonington.

Local Stonington Roofing Company

We Live Here Too

Sullivan Contracting has been handling roofs in Stonington and the surrounding area for years. We’re not the crew that shows up after a storm, takes your money, and disappears back to another state.

We’re your neighbors. We know which streets flood first, which houses get hit hardest by nor’easters, and exactly what the building inspector expects to see. When you call us three years from now with a question, we’ll still be here.

That local knowledge matters when you’re dealing with coastal weather and Connecticut building codes. We’ve seen what works and what fails, and we build accordingly.

Roofing Process Stonington CT

Here's Exactly What Happens

First, we actually show up when we say we will and give you a real assessment – not a sales pitch. We’ll get on your roof, check the decking, look at your gutters, and tell you what needs fixing and what doesn’t.

You get a written estimate that spells out exactly what we’re doing and what it costs. No surprises, no “additional work we discovered” that doubles your bill halfway through.

Then we do the work right. That means proper underlayment, correct flashing installation, and materials rated for coastal conditions. We pull the permits, handle the inspections, and clean up completely when we’re done. You get photos of the work and all warranty information before we consider the job finished.

Complete Roofing Services Stonington

Everything Your Roof Needs

We handle complete roof replacements, storm damage repairs, and emergency leak fixes. That includes working with your insurance company to document damage properly and get your claim approved the first time.

You also get proper ventilation systems that prevent ice dams, gutters that actually direct water away from your foundation, and flashing that won’t fail in five years. We use materials designed for salt air and coastal conditions – not whatever’s cheapest at the supply house.

Every job includes complete cleanup and debris removal. We’re not leaving you with a dumpster in your driveway for three weeks or nails scattered across your lawn where your kids play.

How much does a new roof cost in Stonington, CT?

Roof replacement costs in Stonington typically range from $12,000 to $25,000 depending on size, materials, and complexity. Coastal homes often need upgraded materials and additional wind-resistant features, which affects pricing. We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs – materials, labor, permits, and cleanup. The investment makes sense when you consider that a properly installed roof protects your home value and can last 20-30 years in our climate. We’ll show you exactly what you’re paying for and why each component matters for long-term performance.

Do you help with insurance claims for storm damage?

Yes, we work directly with insurance companies and help document storm damage properly. We know what adjusters look for and how to present damage claims that get approved. This includes taking detailed photos, providing material specifications, and explaining why certain repairs are necessary for code compliance. We’ve helped dozens of Stonington homeowners navigate the claims process successfully. The key is getting the damage documented correctly from the start – trying to add items later usually doesn’t work. We handle the paperwork and communicate directly with your adjuster to keep things moving.

How long does a roof replacement take in Stonington?

Most residential roof replacements in Stonington take 2-4 days depending on size and weather conditions. We start by pulling permits with the town, which usually takes a few days to process. The actual roofing work happens quickly once we start – we don’t stretch jobs out for weeks. Weather can delay things, especially during storm season, but we’ll keep you updated on any changes. We also coordinate with waste management for debris removal and schedule the final inspection with the building department. You’ll have a weatherproof roof at the end of each work day, so you’re never left exposed overnight.

What roofing materials work best for coastal Connecticut weather?

Architectural shingles with proper underlayment perform best in our coastal climate. We typically recommend GAF or Owens Corning shingles rated for high winds, along with synthetic underlayment that won’t tear in strong winds. Metal roofing also works well for coastal homes, especially if you’re dealing with ice dam issues. The key is proper installation – even the best materials fail if they’re not installed correctly for wind resistance. We use extra fasteners, proper flashing techniques, and materials designed to handle salt air corrosion. Cheap three-tab shingles rarely last more than 15 years here, so they’re usually not worth the savings.

Do you offer emergency roof repair services?

Yes, we provide emergency roof repairs throughout Stonington, especially after storms. Emergency service means we’ll get your roof weatherproofed quickly to prevent further damage – usually within 24-48 hours of your call. This might involve tarping, temporary patches, or emergency shingle replacement depending on the situation. We carry materials for common emergency repairs and can often fix smaller issues permanently on the first visit. For major damage, we’ll secure your roof first, then work with your insurance company on permanent repairs. Emergency calls do carry premium pricing, but preventing water damage to your interior usually makes the cost worthwhile.

Are you licensed and insured for roofing work in Connecticut?

Yes, Sullivan Contracting is fully licensed for roofing work in Connecticut and carries comprehensive liability insurance plus workers compensation coverage. We can provide proof of insurance before starting any work, and we pull proper permits for all roof replacements and major repairs. Our licensing means we stay current on Connecticut building codes and safety requirements. We’re also bonded, which protects you if something goes wrong with the project. Many contractors skip proper licensing and insurance to keep costs down, but that leaves you liable if someone gets hurt or if the work doesn’t meet code. We handle everything properly so you don’t have to worry about it.
