Metal roofs, shingle roofs and honest repairs for Washington, CT homeowners. Family owned since 2002, and estimates are always free.
Metal roofing is our specialty, but shingles, gutters, soffit and leak work all get the same attention in Washington.
If wind got under your roof once it will try again. We fix the damage and close the edge back up so there is nothing left to catch.
Repair or replace, we handle both, and we work from what the roof actually needs rather than from what an adjuster might approve.
We match the guard to your trees and your gutter profile, and make sure water can still get in where it is supposed to.
We repair what the storm actually broke. If that is one slope, we do one slope, and we will not pad an estimate to make a claim look bigger.
One leak usually has company. We fix the one you called about and check over the rest of the roof while we are already up there.
From a few tabs to a whole slope, we fix shingle roofs without pushing you toward a replacement you are not ready for.
Reflective coatings keep a metal roof cooler in summer and seal up the small stuff before it turns into a leak.
A skylight has to be woven into the roof, not caulked to it. That is the difference between a fix that lasts a season and one that holds.
A metal roof is the one that outlives the mortgage. We install exposed fastener panels and standing seam over solid decking and real underlayment, with around twenty standard colors to choose from.
A limb through the roof or panels peeled back overnight needs covering now, not next week. We get it dried in first so the inside of the house stops taking damage.
Small repairs get the same crew and the same care as a full roof. Free estimate, a price in writing, and the work done before the next rain moves in.
We repair standing seam, exposed fastener panels and metal shingles, and we match the color as closely as the paint system will allow.
Inspections come free with an estimate. We would rather find the small problem this spring than replace a ceiling for you next winter.
Where it makes sense we set low slope metal over a problem section so it finally drains instead of ponding after every rain.
When a roof is genuinely finished we replace it, and we say so plainly rather than dressing it up. Metal and shingle priced side by side so you can compare real numbers.
Steam and hand work, never a hammer and chisel on your roof. Then we check the eaves for the damage the ice already did.
We work around your hours, weekends included when that is what it takes to keep your doors open while the roof goes on.
Rotted fascia and sagging soffit let water and animals in behind the roof edge. We cut the bad wood out and put new in.
Slate and tile take patience and matching pieces. We replace broken and slipped units and rework the flashing they hide.
Underlayment, ice and water shield in the valleys and along the eaves, sealed penetrations, and proper closures at the ridge.
Metal is what we are known for. Since 2002 the bulk of our work has been standing seam and metal panel roofs, and it is still what most Washington homeowners call us about. We measure on site, help you settle on a color, and set the panels straight.
We do shingle roofs too, and plenty of them. But if you have been thinking about a tin roof on your Washington home, that is the conversation we enjoy most — panel type, color, trim, and what it is really going to cost.
Here is what Washington homeowners tell us makes the difference.
The same family started this company putting metal roofs on neighbors houses in 2002. It has never been sold, franchised or handed off to a call center.
You get a start date and we hold to it. If weather moves your job we call you, rather than leaving you watching the driveway.
Around twenty standard metal colors, and the chart comes out with the estimate so you can hold it up against your siding and shutters before you commit.
If your roof needs a repair and not a replacement, we say so. Plenty of our best customers are people we talked out of a job they did not need yet.
Standing seam and metal panel roofs are the work we are known for. Color, trim, fastening pattern — we have done hundreds and we will walk you through all of it.
The questions that come up on just about every estimate we write.
We do. After a storm we photograph the damage on your Washington roof and write an itemized estimate you can hand to your adjuster. We do not file the claim for you and we will not promise you what an adjuster is going to approve — that is their call, not ours.
Any dry stretch works. We roof in Washington year round, though we schedule shingle work for when it is warm enough for the strips to seal properly, and we watch the forecast so your house is never left open overnight.
Sometimes. If the decking is sound and there is only one layer of shingles, a Washington metal roof can go over the top on purlins. If there is rot underneath or two layers already on, we tear off first — and we will tell you that before you sign, not halfway through.
Often, yes. Plenty of the Washington roofs we get called to look at need flashing reworked or a section refastened, not a whole new roof. We will tell you honestly which one you are looking at, and if it is repairable we would rather repair it.
For most Washington homes, yes. A metal roof costs more up front than shingles, but it usually outlives two or three shingle roofs, sheds rain and snow better, and does not peel off in a hard wind. We will price metal and shingle side by side so you can compare real numbers instead of guessing.
Plenty of them. Most Washington customers choose from around twenty standard colors, and green, burgundy, bronze, black, gray, tan and barn red are the ones people pick most. We bring the color chart out with the estimate so you can hold it up against your siding.
