Central Connecticut’s housing stock is full of older New England colonials, capes, and historic homes that take a beating from inland winters. We replace and repair asphalt, cedar, slate, synthetic, metal, and flat/low-slope roofs across the county, and back qualifying roof replacements with the GAF Golden Pledge lifetime warranty, the strongest in the industry. We handle the permits, protect your property, clean up daily, and assign a dedicated project manager to every job.
Hartford County sits inland, away from the coast, so the dominant roofing stressors here are winter-driven: heavy snow load, persistent ice damming, and repeated freeze-thaw cycling that cracks brittle shingles and lifts flashing. The county’s mature tree canopy across West Hartford, Glastonbury, and Farmington adds debris and shade-driven moss and algae, and summer storms bring high winds and occasional hail.
For asphalt roofs we recommend architectural shingles rated for 130 mph wind or higher, ideally SBS-modified for cold-weather flexibility and Class 4 impact-resistant (which can lower your insurance) — GAF Timberline HDZ is the regional standard and qualifies for the Golden Pledge warranty. Central CT’s older colonials and historic homes often suit cedar, slate, or synthetic slate/shake. On every roof we extend ice-and-water shield well beyond the code minimum at the eaves, rakes, and valleys given the area’s heavy ice-dam exposure.
Each Hartford County town — Hartford, West Hartford, Glastonbury, Manchester, and the rest — issues building permits through its own building department, and roof replacements require a permit and inspection. Gunner handles the entire permit process for you in every municipality we work, from application and fees to scheduling inspections, so there’s nothing for you to file. We’re fully licensed in Connecticut (HIC) and carry full general liability and workers’ comp insurance.
