Roofing Contractor – Madison CT

Madison's beach neighborhoods sit directly in the wind off the Sound, and roofs near East Wharf, West Wharf, and the Hammonasset side take it without much shelter. Wind-driven rain finds its way past details that would never leak on an inland house — which is why edge metal, starter course, and fastener pattern deserve as much attention here as the shingle itself.

Many of the older cottages along the water still carry cedar, and the salt environment ages it faster than the same roof would age elsewhere. Whether to restore cedar or move to a high wind-rated architectural asphalt is one of the more common decisions Madison homeowners face, and it is worth getting two opinions.
