We are Roofing Contractors Serving Fairfield & New Haven County, CT | Marut Home Improvement

Your roof is one of the most important structural components of your home. When it begins to fail, it can lead to leaks, insulation problems, and costly interior damage.

At Marut Home Improvement, we provide professional roofing services designed to protect homes throughout Fairfield County and New Haven County Connecticut.

Our team installs durable roofing systems designed to withstand harsh winters, heavy rain, and seasonal temperature fluctuations common in the Northeast.

Your Roof Is Your Home's First Line of Defense

Connecticut homeowners face some of the most demanding weather in the Northeast — heavy snow loads, ice dams, nor’easters, and summer heat cycles. A properly installed roof protects everything beneath it. Ignoring early warning signs can turn a small repair into a $30,000+ replacement.

🌨️  Built for CT Winters

Ice dams, freeze-thaw cycles, and heavy snow loads put enormous stress on your roof every winter. The right material and proper installation make the difference between a roof that lasts 30 years and one that fails in 10.

💧  Stop Leaks Before They Start

Water intrusion is the leading cause of interior structural damage in Connecticut homes. A compromised roof leads to mold, rot, and damaged insulation — all of which cost far more to fix than the roof itself.

📈  Protects Your Home’s Value

A new roof is one of the top ROI home improvements. It increases curb appeal, satisfies home inspectors, and gives buyers confidence. Homes with aging roofs sell for less and sit on the market longer.

⚡  Improves Energy Efficiency

A properly ventilated and insulated roof reduces heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer — directly lowering your heating and cooling bills year-round.

Our Roofing Services

From full roof replacements to targeted repairs and skylight installations, we handle every aspect of your roofing project — including all Connecticut building permits and inspections.

Roof Replacement

Full tear-off and replacement of your existing roof. We remove all old materials down to the decking, inspect and repair any underlying damage, then install your new roofing system with proper underlayment, flashing, and ventilation. The most common and comprehensive roofing service we provide.

Roof Repair

Not every roof issue requires a full replacement. If damage is limited — a few missing shingles, a small leak around flashing, or a storm-damaged section — a targeted repair can extend your roof's life for years at a fraction of the cost. We'll give you an honest assessment during your free inspection.

Skylights

Properly installed skylights add natural light and increase home value without compromising your roof's integrity. We install and replace skylights of all sizes, ensuring watertight seals and correct flashing to prevent leaks — the most common cause of skylight failure.

Roof Inspection & Assessment

Not sure if your roof needs a repair or a full replacement? We offer free on-site inspections and provide honest, written recommendations. No scare tactics — just a straightforward assessment of your roof's condition and your options.

Roofing Material Options for Connecticut Homes

The right material depends on your home's style, budget, and how long you plan to stay. Here's how each option performs in Connecticut's climate — from our harsh winters to humid summers.

Metal roofing is the premium long-term investment. Standing seam metal roofs offer exceptional durability, energy efficiency, and a modern aesthetic that's increasingly popular on Connecticut homes. The higher upfront cost is offset by a dramatically longer lifespan and near-zero maintenance. Key Benefits: • 40–70 year lifespan — often outlasts the home • Snow and ice shed naturally off the smooth surface • Reflects solar heat — reduces summer cooling costs • Withstands winds over 140 mph • Environmentally friendly — 100% recyclable

Cedar Shake Roofing

Cedar shake delivers a timeless, natural look that's popular on colonial and craftsman-style Connecticut homes. Each shake is hand-split from western red cedar, giving roofs a distinctive texture and warm tone that ages beautifully. Cedar provides natural insulation and is biodegradable. Key Benefits: • Rich, natural aesthetic — enhances curb appeal significantly • Natural insulating properties — reduces heating costs • Naturally resistant to insects and rot when maintained • 30–40 year lifespan with proper care • Sustainable and biodegradable material

flat roofs

Flat & Low-Slope Roofing

For sections of your home with a flat or low-slope roof — common on additions, garages, and some modern home designs — we install EPDM rubber membrane or TPO systems. These materials are specifically engineered for flat surfaces where traditional shingles cannot be used. Key Benefits: • Purpose-built for flat and low-slope applications • EPDM offers excellent flexibility in cold CT winters • Highly resistant to UV, ozone, and weathering • Low maintenance and easy to repair • 20–30 year lifespan with proper installation

Our Clients Testimonials

Chris converted our wood porch to a trex like material with aluminum railings. We couldn't be happier with the work done. Price was very reasonable, the communication was excellent. I would highly recommend him.
We’re very pleased with our new James Hardie siding and new windows, both installed by Marut Home Improvement, in Trumbull, CT. Chris was consistently great at communicating throughout all phases, from demo to finishing details. He was very attentive to the details and progress, and very responsive to all my feedback His staff was very professional and diligent also. Like any project on an old house, there were minor challenges along the way, and Chris promptly found solutions. The final product looks great, and high quality. I highly recommend this contractor to anyone.
Chris and his team are true professionals. From the moment I reached out and explained what I was looking to accomplish, Chris was transparent and honest about all my options, including cost and timeline. That level of clarity made it easy to trust the process from the start. Not only did they deliver exactly what was agreed upon, but they consistently went above and beyond to ensure I was fully satisfied. Chris made it a point to involve me in key decisions that impacted the final outcome, which I genuinely appreciated. What stood out most was their work ethic and strong client-focused approach. Chris and his team are hardworking, highly skilled, and take real pride in what they do. The scope of work included siding replacement, porch reconstruction, deck repairs and modifications, installation of a kitchen vent, roof extension with new roofing, and even holiday lighting. Every aspect was handled with professionalism and attention to detail.

We reached out to Chris for a patio door replacement, and he got back to us right away. He made everything as smooth as possible, was mindful of our budget, and stayed incredibly responsive. He and his team installed the door quickly and did a great job. Big kudos to them.
Can't recommend Chris and his team enough! He came out over a year ago to give us a quote for a deck rebuild and expansion. His quote was by far the most competitive and he honored his price over a year later when we were ready to move forward on his project. The team was communicative through the whole process. They ran into a slight issue which they worked with us on to troubleshoot and still stay within our budget. His whole team was kind, respectful, and treated our property with the utmost care. We are so happy with the final product and will be calling him for future projects for sure!

Roofing FAQ

How do I know if my roof needs to be replaced?

Common signs that your roof may need replacement include missing or curling shingles, frequent leaks, granules in gutters, sagging areas, or visible damage after storms. If your roof is over 20–25 years old, it’s a good idea to have a professional inspection to determine whether repairs or a full replacement is the best option.

How long does a roof replacement take?

Most residential roof replacements take 1–2 days, depending on the size of the home, roof complexity, and weather conditions. Larger homes or roofs with multiple layers may take longer, but experienced crews work efficiently to minimize disruption.

What roofing materials do you install?

We install high-quality asphalt shingle roofing systems, which are the most popular and cost-effective option for homeowners. We work with trusted manufacturers to ensure durability, weather resistance, and long-lasting performance. We also install metal roofs and cedar roofs for modern and traditional appearance.

How much does a new roof cost in Connecticut?

Roof replacement costs vary depending on the size of the roof, material choice, ventilation requirements, and structural condition. Most homeowners in Fairfield and New Haven Counties invest in a new roof to protect their home and improve long-term property value. We provide detailed estimates so you understand the full scope of the project.

Do you offer roof inspections?

Yes. Professional roof inspections help identify leaks, storm damage, worn shingles, and ventilation issues. Regular inspections can extend the life of your roof and prevent small problems from turning into costly repairs.

Can you repair my roof instead of replacing it?

In many cases, roof repairs are possible if the damage is localized or the roof still has useful life remaining. However, if the roof is older or has widespread damage, replacement may be the more cost-effective long-term solution.

Do you provide roofing services in my area?

Marut Home Improvement proudly provides roofing services to homeowners throughout Fairfield County and New Haven County, Connecticut, including towns like Milford, Orange, Stratford, Fairfield, West Haven, and surrounding communities.

Will a new roof improve my home’s energy efficiency?

Yes. A properly installed roofing system with adequate ventilation and insulation can help regulate attic temperatures, reduce energy loss, and improve overall energy efficiency.

What happens if you find damage under the shingles?

During roof replacement, we inspect the roof decking. If we find rotted or damaged plywood, it will be replaced to ensure the roof structure is solid before installing the new roofing system.

Is a roofing permit required in Connecticut?

Yes, most municipalities require a building permit for roof replacement. A professional roofing contractor will handle the permitting process and ensure the work meets local building codes.
