Time and weather cause damage to roofs. Years of sun exposure combined with snow and ice break down roofing materials and cause roofs to start to leak! We are experts are repairing leaking roofs so that additional costly damage doesn't happen to the inside of your house. Whether your roof is asphalt shingles, a flat rubber roof, or even a slate or copper roof we have the experience to repair the damage.
New Haven, CT roofs take a beating year-round due to cold, wet winters and warm, humid summers. If you're replacing a roof for the first time, there is some basic terminology that can help you understand the choices available to you. Some roofing materials require a larger upfront investment but last a long time with little on-going maintenance or repair.
Finding where a roof is leaking can be easy or very difficult to determine. If there are missing shingles or clear damage to a roof the process is often easy. If the attic is open and the beams and raters can be inspected this also makes leak detection easy. However, if there is no visible damage, once water enters a house it can run along wood support beams for quite a distance before the water appears on the ceiling or wall.
Asphalt shingles are one of the most popular roofing materials used in the New Haven area. Giant Roofing believes this is due to their lower cost coupled with a long life-span. If you're considering an asphalt shingled roof, it's important to understand the choices that you'll need to make. Fiberglass shingles are constructed of woven fiberglass, which are then covered in waterproof asphalt.
New Haven averages approximately 48 inches of rain annually. With four feet of rain coming down on your property, rain gutters need to be a priority. Properly installed gutters are essential to keeping your siding from getting mold and rot, and keeping your basement dry. Rain gutters move water away from the house to protect it.

I found them friendly and easy to work with. They installed a new roof on my single family colonial house. It was not a difficult job, but I liked that they only used top notch materials that have a very long warrantee and they also have a guarantee on labor which told me that they have confidence in their own work. The south side of the roof was in really bad shape and the roofer told me the north side could have survived another year or two, but I decided to replace the whole roof at one time because it was less expensive in the long run to do the whole job at once. I did not feel pressured at

They fixed flashing around the chimney which was leaking. A huge rain storm earlier in the week and not a drop of water. Yeah.

I got a leak in my roof because of frozen water in the gutter backing up the roof and literally peeling away some of the roof tiles! Giant came out the same day, and did a quick patch to keep my ceiling and wall dry through the winter. The two men who did the job were professional and polite.
