When Is It Time for a New Roof?

Not every failing roof needs replacing, and not every roof that looks fine has much life left. Here’s how we think about it when we’re standing on yours during a free in-home assessment.

Signs it’s replacement, not repair

  • The roof is at or past the end of the lifespan it was sold with.
  • Shingles are coming off in ordinary weather, not just after storms.
  • Damage is spread across the roof rather than concentrated in one area.
  • You’ve repaired the same section more than once.
  • There are stains in more than one room below.

One damaged area on an otherwise sound roof is usually a repair. The same problem in several places at once usually isn’t.

What a replacement looks like with us

1. Free in-home assessment

We inspect the roof’s condition and give you an honest opinion on repair versus replacement. No obligation — if it doesn’t need replacing, we’ll say so.

2. An accurate estimate

You’ll know exactly what the job takes before we start. No hidden costs, ever.

3. Installation on schedule

A crew that’s been on Connecticut roofs since 1931 — asphalt, slate, wood shingle, and flat roofs alike. We’re fully insured and equipped for any size project, residential or commercial.

4. Spotless cleanup

Your lawn, flowers, and walkways are protected on every job, and the site is left clean when we’re done.

Still deciding?

Book the assessment. It costs nothing, and you’ll get a straight answer on where your roof actually stands.

Not Sure What You’re Looking At?

That’s what the free in-home assessment is for. We’ll take a look and give you an honest answer — repair, or leave it alone.
