Last 6 months: 0 reviews, 0 negative. ## The honest read Russo Roofing Inc says on its website that it is a family owned and operated roofing company that has been servicing the southern CT area since 1928. Its Houzz profile says Dominic Russo started the business in 1928 and that his son, Fred Russo, took it over in 1972. A 2024 customer said the company stripped and redid their roof, came when they said, and left the house, yard and driveway as if the materials, equipment and traffic had never been there. A 2021 customer said they had watched the company strip and recover a neighbor's roof, covering the exterior with plywood to protect the property. That 2021 customer said the company also replaced a skylight and gutters on their own house. A 2024 customer said Bruce estimated the job and kept them informed, and praised Pat and his crew. A 2024 customer said the company responded quickly to a quote request, scheduled the project promptly and left the clean-up perfect. A 2025 customer gave one star after the woman at the front desk would not open the locked front door to speak with them. On r/Connecticut, a commenter wrote, "Russo - never called me back." **Strengths:** - Roof strip and redo — a 2024 customer said they came when they said - Plywood protection — a 2021 customer said the exterior was covered during a re-roof - A quick quote — a 2024 customer said the project was scheduled promptly **Concerns:** - Front-desk service — a 2025 customer was spoken to through a locked door - No call back — an r/Connecticut commenter said Russo never called back ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - Describes itself as a family owned and operated roofing company servicing the southern CT area since 1928 _(confidence: medium)_ - [Official Website](http://www.russoroofing.com) — “About (self-reported, verbatim): Russo Roofing Inc. is a family owned and operated roofing company that has been servicing the southern CT a…” - Its Houzz profile says Dominic Russo started the business in 1928 and his son Fred Russo took over in 1972 _(confidence: medium)_ - [Houzz](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/roofing-and-gutters/russo-roofing-inc-pfvwus-pf~1202519316) — “About (Houzz profile, the business's own statement): Russo Roofing is a third generation family run business started in 1928 by Dominic Russ…” - A 2024 customer said the company stripped and redid their roof _(confidence: high)_ - [Angi](https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/ct/hamden/russo-roofing-inc-reviews-1.htm) — “Ruth M.
