Call (888) 685-2250What roof repair in New Milford, CT usually involves
The weather decides which parts of a roof fail first. With snowy winters, ice dams and nor'easters, these are the repairs that come up again and again in Connecticut.
Chimney leaks
Water gets into a chimney through the cap, the crown, the mortar, the brick itself or the flashing. The flashing is the roofer's part of that list, and caulk smeared over it is not a repair.
Nor'easter wind damage
Wind-driven rain lifts shingle tabs along ridges, rakes and eaves. A few lifted tabs are a small repair if they are resealed or replaced before water finds the deck.
Freeze–thaw at the joints
Repeated freezing and thawing opens joints in step flashing and around vent pipes. Sealant over a moving joint fails within a season; the flashing needs resetting.

Why isn't the leak right above the ceiling stain?
Water runs along rafters and insulation before it drips, so the stain can be several feet from the hole. That is why a proper inspection covers the attic as well as the roof.
When should I worry about ice dams?
When icicles are thick along the eaves or water stains appear on ceilings near outside walls during a thaw. Don't chip at the ice: it damages shingles. The long-term fix is attic insulation and ventilation.
