Farmington's Main Street is lined with colonial houses, some dating to the 17th century, while Unionville and the newer subdivisions hold a much wider mix. Old houses tend to carry old fixes: roofing laid over earlier roofing, flashing patched with tar and chimneys that have shifted over time. We look past the surface patches to the condition of the deck and framing, because a new roof is only as good as what it sits on.

Leaks in Farmington homes often show up first in the attic, around chimneys or where an ell or wing meets the main house. These joints move with the seasons, and the flashing that seals them wears out before the shingles do. A careful roofing repair at the joint can keep a roof in service for years when the rest of it is still sound.

Roofing in Farmington's Historic District

The Farmington Historic District, listed on the National Register in 1972, takes in parts of Main Street, Mountain Road, Porter Road and Farmington Avenue. The town's Historic District Commission reviews roof work in the local district, and its agendas include requests to replace composite slate with architectural shingles on Main Street. If you live in the district, we plan for that review before materials are ordered.

The Metacomet Ridge runs along the east side of town, and the Farmington River bends through Unionville and past Farmington Center. With that much change in terrain, no two roofs in town face quite the same conditions, so we look at each roof's exposure and drainage on its own.

Questions About Roofing in Farmington, CT

Can old roofing be left in place under a new roof?

Building codes limit how many layers a roof can carry, and an overlay hides the deck. A tear-off shows soft sheathing, failed flashing and framing problems that would otherwise stay buried. We explain the options for your house after inspecting it.

My house is in the Farmington Historic District. What changes need approval?

The Historic District Commission reviews exterior changes in the local district, and swapping one roofing material for another is a common item on its agendas. We plan the material choice with that review in mind and schedule the roof once approval is in place.

How long does a typical roof replacement take?

It depends on the size and complexity of the roof, the weather and what we find under the old shingles. Most of the time goes into tear-off, deck repair and flashing details. We give you a realistic schedule once the scope is clear.
