Top-Quality Roofing Materials For Any Local Project
Choose Your Preferred Option From Our List Of Trusted Manufacturers
What type of roofing is the best fit for your property in Fairfield County, CT? The answer depends on a range of factors, including your building’s architecture and your personal preferences.
But no matter the specific type of roofing works best, one thing’s for certain. The materials used to create it must be durable, dependable, and aesthetically pleasing.
Looking for the perfect option? You’ll find it at Sound Renovation.
We feature premium materials in more than half a dozen common and uncommon roofing types. Whether it’s asphalt, cedar, metal, slate, tile, or flat roofing, we have one goal: Using your chosen material to create a reliable, weather-tight shield for your valuable property.
Asphalt Shingles

As GAF Master Elite contractors, we feature complete roofing systems from this trusted manufacturer. The heart of these systems is the Timberline HDZ asphalt shingle.
Made in the U.S.A., Timberline HDZs are known for their beauty and advanced technology. They’re also known for their superior product warranties. You can expect:
- Two complete color collections – High Definition and Bold Definition
- Layer-Lock® technology that supports dead-accurate shingle nailing
- StainGuard Plus™ warranties on your shingles’ algae resistance
- WindProven® infinite speed wind warranties
- DuraGrip™ advanced sealants
Since we install complete systems, all Timberline warranties apply in full.
Cedar Shingles

Cedar shingles aren’t brand-specific like asphalt shingles. Instead, what matters is the grade of cedar used for the job.
We feature the highest grade of Western Red Cedar available, known as number one blue-label perfection. These shingles:
- Are made from 100% heartwood with zero defects in their key areas
- Come in a uniform length of 18 inches with a half-inch-thick butt end
- Are cut specifically to prevent splitting, warping, or twisting in extended use
To ensure they perform as expected, we hand nail our cedar shingles with meticulous care.
6 Superior Metal Roofing Options

Metal roofing is prized for its long-term durability and resistance to fire and wind. The gold standard for this type of roofing is the mechanically seamed panel. Panels of this type rely on hidden standing seams that combine beauty with maximum water-tightness.
We feature mechanically seamed metal roofing in six different premium materials:
- Galvalume® alloy-coated steel
- Lead-coated copper
- Zinc-coated copper
- Red copper
- Aluminum
- Steel
You can also turn to us for flat-seamed metal panels, suitable for mansard and high-slope roofs.
Natural And Synthetic Slate

Slate is a classic roofing material dating back centuries. It’s known for its extreme toughness and extended lifespan.
However, slate is much heavier than asphalt shingles, cedar shingles, and metal panels. Before installing it, you may need to beef up your building’s structure to withstand the extra weight. For this reason, many of today’s property owners choose lighter, modern synthetic slate instead.
You’ll find both options at Sound Renovation.
Our natural slate comes from Vermont’s Evergreen Slate, the nation’s top provider. Adaptable to a range of building styles, it’s available in various thicknesses and textures.
Our featured synthetic slate comes from supplier DaVinci Roofscapes. It’s a lightweight U.S.-made product that can typically be installed without any structural upgrades. It combines the best qualities of natural slate with lasting, fade-resistant colors.
EPDM And Kemper Flat Roofing

Have a residence, multi-home building, or commercial building with a flat roof? We feature two standout material options: EPDM and the Kemper System.
EPDM
EPDM is a synthetic rubber membrane known for its:
- Ability to help you stabilize indoor temperatures
- Multiple convenient application methods
- Relatively simple maintenance needs
- Flexibility and durability
In most cases, we pair this material with waterproof, UV-resistant Ecodur® coatings.
The Kemper System
The state-of-the-art Kemper System combines a waterproofing membrane with a two-part resin fabric. It’s prized for its:
- Ability to stick tightly to almost any surface
- Resistance to chemicals and UV rays
- Superior weather protection
- High durability and strength
- Extended lifespan
We’re specifically certified to install this complex system.
Ludowici Tile Roofing

While not very common in our area, tile is another top-tier roofing option. If you prefer it, we’ve got you covered.
Our tiles come from renowned manufacturer Ludowici. Choose from traditional Mission and Spanish barrel styles, as well as interlocking tiles and shingle tiles. We’re Ludowici experts. In fact, we’ve been awarded for our work installing the company’s products.
