Residential Roofing in New Canaan
Most of our New Canaan work is residential, and most of it is on homes built between 1900 and 1990. That means a mix of architectural asphalt shingles, cedar shakes, and slate, with a flat or low-slope section on the garage or an addition. Homeowners here care about three things: stopping leaks, keeping the house looking right from the street, and not getting surprised by the bill. We handle all three. Whether you are on Ponus Ridge or in the Village District, we walk the roof, explain what we find, and give you a written estimate before any work starts.
- Asphalt shingle roof replacement — We install GAF Timberline, Owens Corning Duration, and CertainTeed systems on New Canaan homes. Ice and water shield goes along the eaves, ridge vents go in for airflow, and we match the shingle color to the house so it looks right from the street. Most replacements take one to three days.
- Roof leak repair and flashing — Leaks in New Canaan usually trace back to chimney flashing, pipe boots, or ice dam damage. We hose-test to find the actual entry point, rebuild the flashing instead of smearing sealant over it, and verify the repair with another water test before we leave. Most repairs take two to four hours.
- Roof inspection for real estate — Buying or selling a home in New Canaan? Our inspection covers the shingles, flashing, ridge vents, drip edge, and attic underside. We photograph everything and give you a written report with remaining life estimates. It takes about 45 minutes and gives you a real number to negotiate with.
- Storm damage and emergency tarping — When a nor'easter takes shingles off your roof, we tarp the opening the same day to stop water intrusion. We document the damage with photos for your insurance claim, then return to do the permanent repair. Emergency response across New Canaan is typically under two hours, 24/7.
