ROOF SYSTEMS
Not every roof should get the same system
We do not force one product onto every house. Pitch, snow load, tree cover, existing ventilation, and how long you plan to stay all change the right recommendation
Most common in Penobscot County
Architectural asphalt
Fastest path to a dry, code-compliant roof with strong warranty coverage and clean curb appeal
•Best fit for most pitched homes•Wide color range and faster install•Upgraded starter, ridge cap, and ventilation included
Snow-country upgrade
Standing-seam metal
Long-life, concealed-fastener system for homeowners who want fewer replacements and cleaner shedding
•Excellent for snow slide and ice control•24-gauge panels with Kynar finish•Ideal for low-maintenance ownership
Porches, additions, garages
Low-slope / EPDM
Single-ply membrane systems for the roofs that fail first when someone installs shingles where they do not belong
•Cleaner drainage on low-slope sections•Better flashing around walls and penetrations•Used where asphalt systems underperform

02
Ice & water shield
6 ft up from eaves + valleys + all penetrations. Code minimum is 2 ft — we go three times that

EARLY WARNING
Signs your roof is already telling on itself.
CATCH IT EARLY AND THIS IS A
ROOFING JOB.
WAIT TOO LONG AND IT BECOMES
ROOFING + DECKING + INSULATION +
CEILING.
01
Granules in gutters
Usually a sign the shingle is aging out, especially on south-facing slopes
02
Dark ceiling staining
Active leaks often show up far away from the actual penetration point
03
Lifted tabs after wind
A few missing shingles often means more are unsealed and waiting to go
04
Soft decking underfoot
Moisture has likely made it past the roofing layer and into sheathing

Questions
Things people actually ask.
More questions? Call +1 (203) 725-5058 or request an estimate — we don't believe in pressure sales.
How long does a re-roof take?
Most homes are 1-2 full crew days. Large or complex roofs (cut-ups, steep pitches, 40+ squares) can run 3-4 days. We do not leave a roof open overnight if weather is coming
Do you handle insurance claims?
Yes. We meet the adjuster on-site, document everything with drone photos, and bill the carrier directly. You pay your deductible, nothing else
What warranty do I get?
50-year material warranty on GAF systems (lifetime on most shingles), plus our 15-year workmanship warranty. Transferable to new owner once
Can you install in winter?
Asphalt shingles need 40°F for proper seal, but we do emergency repairs year-round and full re-roofs down to October in normal years. Metal installs any month
