While doing a roof inspection in Milford Connecticut the crew realized this unique home had very limited access to the attic. The homeowners did not expect our crew member to fit in the small opening that leads to their attic. Confused by the request the homeowner asked why our crew needed to see the inside the attic? We used this opportunity to explain how important it was to see that attic to give a complete inspection. The best way to look for any signs of moisture or leaks is to go to the attic. The homeowners was very appreciative of the explanation and felt much better knowing how seriously the crew takes these inspections!

The Eaton family reached out to us looking for a quote on their roof. As soon as the dates and times were agreed upon we sent one of our guys out to take a look at the house and to help come up with a game plan.

Once we reached an agreeable quote we set up a date for our guys to go out and get the job done. Due to the house being almost 38 squares, this was going to be a very big job thus requiring a few days to complete but the Eaton family wanted the roof done as soon as possible which meant we had to change up our game plan. On the day of installation, we grabbed a few extra hands and got to work demoing. The existing shingles were in rough shape and needed to be ripped. Once they were up we could get a better look at the decking layer, after inspecting the layer we determined that we did not need to replace it aside from 2 small sheets. This saved the family some money which they could put toward other improvements.

Once the two small sections were replaced, we proceeded to tape all the seams and edges using water-sealing tape. Following that, we applied Ice and Water to the edges, valleys, and eaves of the roof. Subsequently, a layer of underlayment was installed over the remaining uncovered areas. The tape, Ice and Water, and underlayment collectively serve to protect and seal the roof against any water infiltration that may get through the shingles.

While these layers may be considered excessive for our roofs, given the exceptional craftsmanship invested in each project, it is exceedingly rare for them to develop leaks on their own. However, these layers truly prove their worth in cases of significant weather damage, such as hailstorms or fallen trees. In such situations, they act as an additional barrier, providing a safeguard in the event the shingles are compromised. Although not as durable as shingles, they buy you valuable time to call out a repair team.

After the protective layers were down we moved on to installing the shingles, this family decided on our IKO Dynasty Granite Black Shingles these matched the rest of the house perfectly and really added to the overall curb value of the home. Towards the end of the second day, it was not looking like we were going to finish, but our team pulled through and finished just in time before night fully set in. Within two days our team took care of this massive roof, always making sure to deliver the best possible product and craftsmanship for our customers. The Eaton family now has a safe, dry, and beautiful roof that is guaranteed for 50 years.

This homeowner called us out to their home because they found a leak in their roof. This leak was damaging the homeowner's ceilings and causing mold to grow in the attic. Our sales representative went out to the home and discovered more issues caused by the leak. Due to the size of the leak and the outdated roof system, the homeowner opted to go with a full roof replacement. 

Now that we had the green light from the homeowner we started this replacement process by taking up the old singles. Usually, we would inspect the top side of the decking layer, but because our sales representative already knew that this decking layer was tongue and groove and that it was rotting.  We ripped up the old wood and replaced it with ½ in plywood. 

Next, we installed the sealing layer, which consists of 3 materials that work together to create a watertight yet breathable seal around the decking layer. We first start by taping all the seams with decking tape, then we lay down our Sealeron Ice and Water around all the eaves, rake edges, overhangs, and valleys. Lastly, we installed a synthetic underlayment over any remaining uncovered plywood. 

Finally, this roof is ready for shingles, and this customer decided on our IKO Dynasty Granite Black Shingles. These shingles matched perfectly with the white trim and dark blue shutters. When installing the shingles we always start at the bottom-most corner of the roof. We do this to ensure that the shingles are properly layered and overlapping. As we make our way across and up the roof, we install flashings and boots around any openings in the roof. Then to finish off the roof we hand-nailed the ridge vent and cap shingles. 

This homeowner in Bantam, CT was experiencing leaks coming from around their chimney. Upon inspection our service tech found that the chimney was sealed improperly with clear caulk. We cleared away what was left of the deteriorating caulk and sealed the seams around the chimney properly. The homeowner is now worry free of leaks around the chimney.

Inspector Chase arrived at the property and the homeowner showed him inside. This homeowner was experiencing leaks at the bottom edge of the roof where the windows meet. He also had a leak in the skylight just above it and another leak in a second skylight. Lastly all three of the chimneys were also leaking. The Metal roof was bubbled up in several places. Carlos and crew rebuilt the chimney from the roof line up and replaced all of the skylights during the new metal roof installation.
