Full tear-off roof systems installed to manufacturer specification — so the warranty you're promised is the warranty you actually have. More than 16 years replacing roofs across CT and RI.
A repair makes sense when the damage is isolated and the rest of the roof has years left in it. Replacement is the better call when the problem is the roof itself, not one spot on it.
We'll tell you honestly which category you're in. If a repair will genuinely get you another five years, that's what we'll recommend.
Laying new shingles over an existing layer is faster and cheaper, and it's how a lot of roofs get done. It also hides deck damage you'd want to know about, traps heat that shortens shingle life, adds weight to the framing, and voids most manufacturer warranties.
Every replacement we do starts with a complete tear-off to the wood deck. It costs more up front. It's the reason the roof lasts.
Nine steps, in this order, on every replacement.
Tarps over landscaping, plywood against siding, dumpster placed to keep your driveway usable.
All existing layers stripped down to the wood deck.
Every sheet checked for rot, delamination, and soft spots. Damaged sheathing gets replaced — and we show you what we found before we cover it back up.
At eaves, valleys, and penetrations. This is what stops ice dam backup. In New England it isn't optional.
Across the full deck, over the ice and water membrane.
Intake at the soffits, exhaust at the ridge. Poor ventilation is the most common reason a roof fails early, and it's the step most often skipped.
New flashing at chimneys, walls, valleys, and pipe boots. Reusing old flashing is where leaks come back.
Installed to manufacturer nailing pattern and exposure spec — the part that actually qualifies the warranty.
Magnetic sweep of the entire property, debris hauled, site left as we found it.
We're certified to install CertainTeed, GAF, Owens Corning, and Tamko roofing systems.
That certification matters more than it sounds. A manufacturer warranty only pays out if the roof was installed to specification by a certified contractor — which is why so many homeowners discover their coverage is void at exactly the moment they need it.
We'll walk you through the options at estimate time: architectural versus three-tab, color, impact and wind ratings, and what warranty term each system carries.
Qualified homeowners can spread the cost over up to 24 months at 0% interest. Approval is quick and it doesn't change your price.
Ask About FinancingLarger or more complex roofs — multiple dormers, steep pitch, cut-up rooflines — take longer. We'll give you the realistic number before we start rather than after.

Christopher Home Improvement did a wonderful job on my roof and gutters. No more rain overflowing down the house. These guys were great — very fast and professional, with no mess left behind. The new roof looks great! They did my mother's house as well. She told me not to go with anyone else, and she was right.
