Homeowners often wait for visible leaks to consider a new roof, but subtler warning signs appear much earlier. Look for curling or missing shingles, granule loss, soft spots, sagging, or dark streaks caused by algae. Flashing around chimneys and vents may also deteriorate. In Connecticut’s climate, weather cycles accelerate wear. Even if water hasn't entered your home, underlying decking may already be compromised. At About Time Home Improvement, we conduct detailed inspections to assess integrity before major damage occurs, helping you act early and save money.

A full replacement isn't always necessary. If damage is localized (e.g., after a storm) and the rest of the roof is in good shape, a repair can suffice. However, if the roof is over 20 years old, has widespread shingle damage, or multiple layers, replacement may be more cost-effective long-term. About Time Home Improvement provides honest assessments—balancing short-term fixes with your home's long-term protection. Our team always explains your options and projected lifespan, so you can make an informed decision.

Absolutely. Many homeowners assume vertical additions are the only option for more space. However, horizontal extensions—like bump-outs, garage conversions, or rear additions—can provide extra square footage without affecting your home's height or structural load. These options are often more cost-effective and easier to permit in areas like Fairfield. At About Time Home Improvement, we help design thoughtful additions that blend seamlessly with your home’s architecture while maximizing usability and value.

One of the most common mistakes is prioritizing appearance over performance. For example, homeowners may choose siding based on color alone without considering insulation value, moisture resistance, or long-term durability. Another pitfall is not coordinating materials and design elements—leading to mismatched exteriors that can hurt curb appeal and value. At About Time Home Improvement, we guide you through material options that are not only beautiful but also energy-efficient, durable, and suitable for Connecticut’s seasonal extremes.

Well-executed additions can significantly increase your home’s resale value by adding functional space—like bedrooms, baths, or living areas. However, they can also raise your property taxes, since they increase your home’s assessed square footage. Before building, it’s essential to weigh value vs. cost. At About Time Home Improvement, we walk clients through the ROI of various expansion options and coordinate with local Fairfield permitting departments to ensure transparency on both zoning and tax implications.

Yes. Matching older materials is one of our specialties. We understand the architectural diversity of homes in Fairfield—from Colonials to Cape Cods—and we use manufacturer networks to source compatible shingles, siding panels, and trims. Even if your exact brand or color has been discontinued, we can suggest alternatives that blend seamlessly. Our team also recommends transitioning elements (like gables or fascia upgrades) to unify new and old surfaces for a cohesive look.
