Residential Roof Replacement
Replacing the Roof on Your Stamford HomeThis referral line serves Stamford homeowners first, plus landlords and businesses. The median Stamford home was built in 1973, and 58.4% were built before 1980, so older decking, attic ventilation and past re-roofs can shape the job. Calls are connected from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. with an independent local roofer who sets the inspection and price.

Warning Signs on a Home Roof
When It Is Time to Call
Curled, cracked or missing shingles, granules piling in gutters, brown ceiling stains, daylight through attic boards, a sagging roofline, icicles and ice dams along the eaves, and leaks that return after a patch all deserve a call. If water is dripping inside, move belongings and set out buckets.
Stay off icy, wet or storm-damaged roofs and keep away from water near light fixtures. Check that the contractor holds a Home Improvement Contractor registration on eLicense before work begins.

Roofs on Older Stamford Homes
Of Stamford's homes, 32.6% were built before 1960. Older roofs may hide extra layers, worn plank decking or patched flashing. Whether a new roof can go over the old one depends on the existing roof and the building code; the contractor checks this at the inspection.
