Roof Replacement Griswold, CT
Project Overview
JS & R Roofing recently completed a roof replacement in Griswold, Connecticut, installing CertainTeed Weathered Wood 50-year architectural shingles. This project was designed to give the home a refreshed look while providing the homeowners with the long-lasting protection they need against New England’s demanding climate. The result is a roofing system that combines durability, performance, and timeless style.
The existing roof had reached the end of its useful life, showing signs of wear from years of exposure to heavy snow, rain, and seasonal weather shifts. Our crew began by carefully removing the old roofing materials and thoroughly inspecting the roof deck to ensure it was in proper condition. Any necessary repairs were addressed before moving forward, creating a strong and stable foundation for the new installation. This preparation step is critical for achieving both performance and longevity.
The homeowners chose CertainTeed Weathered Wood architectural shingles, a top-quality option that offers both reliability and beauty. Weathered Wood is one of CertainTeed’s most popular colors, known for its subtle blend of gray and brown tones. This versatile color scheme complements a wide variety of exterior finishes, from siding and brick to stone accents, making it an excellent choice for Connecticut homes. The dimensional appearance of the shingles adds depth and texture to the roofline, creating a classic, finished look that enhances the home’s curb appeal.
In addition to its attractive appearance, this roofing system offers unmatched performance. With a 50-year rated lifespan, CertainTeed’s architectural shingles are built to withstand the toughest conditions. Whether it’s heavy snowfall in the winter, strong winds in the fall, or summer heat and humidity, these shingles are designed to deliver reliable protection year after year. Their layered construction provides extra strength, while algae resistance helps maintain the roof’s clean look over time. For the homeowners, this means peace of mind knowing their roof is built to last.
During installation, our team focused on precision and craftsmanship. Every aspect of the job—from flashing and ventilation to shingle alignment—was completed with careful attention to detail. These elements may not always be visible once the project is finished, but they play a key role in ensuring the roof performs properly for decades. By combining industry-leading materials with expert installation, JS & R Roofing delivered a system that meets the highest standards of quality.
The transformation was immediately noticeable. What had been an aging, weathered roof is now a striking feature of the home, bringing new life and value to the property. The Weathered Wood shingles provide a balanced, timeless look that feels right at home in the Connecticut landscape, while also delivering the resilience needed for the region’s variable climate.
This Griswold project is a perfect example of JS & R Roofing’s commitment to excellence. By installing CertainTeed Weathered Wood 50-year architectural shingles, we provided the homeowners with a roof that blends beauty, strength, and peace of mind—an investment that will serve them well for generations to come.
