Roofing built for the Quinnipiac valley
Pattison Construction has worked on homes throughout Wallingford’s neighborhoods — from the older colonials around Center Street, to the postwar ranches in Yalesville, to the newer builds out toward Route 68 and Cheshire Road. The shop sits on Harrison Road.
Roofs in central Connecticut work harder than people think. Wallingford sits in a humid continental climate that swings from August thunderstorms to February ice storms in the same calendar year. Heavy spring rains test flashing and valleys. Summer humidity stresses ridge ventilation. Autumn dumps a heavy leaf load from Connecticut’s thick tree canopy — clogged gutters that nobody noticed in October turn into the ice dam that leaks into the upstairs ceiling in January. And the nor’easters that sweep up the coast every winter can drop one to two feet of wet, heavy snow on a single roof.

From a Pattison customer
“I reached out to 5 contractors for a quote and ended up working with Pattison Construction. When they came to survey the area, they didn’t try to sell me their services like the others — very straightforward and honest. The roof was replaced in one day, from stripping the old one to installing the new one. Their work was exceptional, they left no mess.”

Wallingford Roofing FAQs
Are you actually based in Wallingford?

How do Connecticut nor'easters and winter weather affect Wallingford roofs?
Central Connecticut roofs take a real beating. Nor'easters can drop one to two feet of wet snow in a single storm — heavy enough to stress old framing, especially on lower-slope additions. The freeze-thaw cycle between January and March drives ice dams along eaves with poor insulation or ventilation, which forces water back under shingles and into the roof deck. Roofs installed without proper ice-and-water shield along eaves and valleys are the ones that leak first.
When is the best time of year to schedule roof work in central CT?
Late spring through early fall (May–October) is the sweet spot. Shingles seal best when daytime temperatures stay above 50°F, and the ground is dry enough to stage materials without tearing up lawns. If you're planning a full replacement, book your estimate in March or April to get on the calendar before the summer rush.
How long does a typical roof replacement take?
Timeline depends on the size and complexity of the roof, and on weather. Larger homes, complex rooflines, or material changes (asphalt to metal or slate) take longer than straightforward asphalt replacements. We confirm an exact schedule with you at the time of estimate.
