Residential Roofing in Old Saybrook
Most of our work in Old Saybrook is residential. We replace and repair roofs on capes, colonials, ranches, and shoreline cottages. Homeowners here care about three things: stopping leaks, improving curb appeal, and getting a roof that will not need replacing again in ten years. We understand the local housing stock, from the historic borough to newer builds near Cornfield Point. Whether you need a full replacement or a simple repair, we treat your home like we would treat our own.
- Asphalt shingle roof replacement — We tear off old shingles, repair any rotted decking, and install new underlayment, ice and water shield, and GAF Timberline or Owens Corning Duration shingles. Most Old Saybrook homes are done in one to two days. We clean up every nail with a magnetic sweeper.
- Roof leak diagnosis and repair — Leaks in Old Saybrook often come from flashing failure around chimneys and skylights, not the shingles. We trace the leak to its source, fix it properly, and test it before we leave. Most repairs are done in a single visit.
- Storm damage assessment and repair — After a nor'easter, we inspect your roof for missing shingles, bent flashing, and cracked ridge vents. We document everything with photos for your insurance claim and handle the repair from tarp to final shingle.
- Attic ventilation and ice dam prevention — Ice dams are a common problem in Old Saybrook. We install ridge vents and soffit vents to improve airflow, and we add ice and water shield along the eaves. This keeps your roof colder in winter and prevents ice dams from forming.
