AMP Roofing is a GAF-certified, family-owned roofing contractor serving Thompson, CT and the rest of Windham County’s northeast corner with insurance-based roof replacement and storm-damage repair. From Thompson Hill down through Grosvenordale and Quinebaug, we pair GAF Timberline HDZ shingles and a GAF 50-year limited warranty with something most contractors can’t offer: a licensed, independent public adjuster we bring in who works your insurance claim for you.

In Thompson, the biggest roof threat isn’t a single storm type — it’s the trees. Tucked into Connecticut’s quiet northeast corner against the Massachusetts and Rhode Island lines, Thompson’s heavily wooded lots mean falling limbs are a year-round hazard, whether from a January ice storm or an August thunderstorm rolling over Quaddick State Park.
The damage we see most around town:
Thompson’s remote, rural setting is its own complication: when a storm hits this corner of the state, emergency response can lag. AMP keeps a 2–4 hour storm response so a Thompson roof doesn’t sit open and leaking while you wait.
Thompson’s housing stock skews old and rural — aging farmhouses, Capes, and New England colonials spread across Thompson Hill, West Thompson, and North Grosvenor Dale, many of them well over a century old. These homes are beautiful, but their roofs come with real challenges.
Steep farmhouse pitches, multiple additions stitched on over generations, and original wood decking all make for roofs that need an experienced hand. Older homes in the Thompson Hill Historic District and Grosvenordale Historic District often hide layers of old shingles, soft sheathing, and outdated flashing around chimneys and dormers.
When we replace a roof in Thompson, we strip to the deck, check the wood, and reframe ventilation where the original build skimped on it. For a typical single-family Thompson home, a full roof replacement generally runs $9,000–$22,000 depending on size, pitch, and how many layers come off — larger or more complex farmhouses land at the higher end.
“When my insurance only wanted to approve a repair, Nick’s knowledge of the policy and the matching law got my entire roof covered — plus the interior smoke damage. My $85,000 claim cost me only my $2,000 deductible. The crew was professional, thorough, and cleaned up every nail. I recommend AMP to everyone.”
“Had a great experience with the company. They made the whole process smooth and I didn’t have to do anything.”
“The roof was removed and replaced with great concern and professionalism. I appreciate not having to worry about my roof for the next 50 years.”

Roofing permits in Thompson are filed directly with the town building department, and AMP handles the entire process for you as a licensed Connecticut contractor. You don’t pull the permit or stand in line — we do.
The Thompson Building Department is located at 815 Riverside Drive, North Grosvenordale, CT 06255, phone (860) 923-9900. As a fully licensed and insured CT contractor, AMP files your permit there; approval typically takes about 2–5 business days, and Connecticut requires a final inspection once the new roof is on.
If your home falls inside the Thompson Hill or Grosvenordale Historic District, the project may also need Historic District Commission review, which adds lead time. We coordinate that review for you so the work stays compliant and the timeline stays predictable.
AMP Roofing covers all of Thompson, from the village centers to the back roads. We work every neighborhood in town — Thompson Hill, North Grosvenor Dale, Grosvenordale, Quinebaug, and West Thompson — and the rural stretches in between.
We run our crews up and down Route 12, Route 131, Route 193, Route 200, and I-395, reaching homes near West Thompson Lake, Quaddick State Park, and Thompson Speedway with no trouble. The remote lots that slow other contractors down are exactly the ones we’re set up to serve.
Thompson sits at the hub of the Quiet Corner, so we also cover neighboring Putnam, Killingly, Woodstock, Pomfret, and Eastford — handy if you own more than one property in the area.
Most full roof replacements in Thompson run between $9,000 and $22,000. Older farmhouses and Capes with steep pitches, multiple additions, or extra layers to tear off land toward the higher end, while smaller, simpler homes come in lower. AMP provides a free written, itemized estimate so you see exactly what you’re paying for before any work begins.
Yes — Thompson requires a building permit for a roof replacement, and a final inspection once it’s complete. AMP files the permit on your behalf with the Thompson Building Department at 815 Riverside Drive, North Grosvenordale, (860) 923-9900, as a licensed CT contractor. Homes in the Thompson Hill or Grosvenordale Historic District may also need Historic District Commission review, which we coordinate for you.
Most Thompson roofs are torn off and replaced in one to two days once materials are on site. The bigger variable is the front end: town permit approval usually takes about 2–5 business days, and historic-district homes on Thompson Hill or in Grosvenordale may need extra review time. AMP manages the schedule from permit to final inspection.
Yes. AMP specializes in insurance-based roof replacement, and a licensed, independent public adjuster we bring in works your storm claim directly with your carrier — a real advantage when a fallen limb or ice dam damages a Thompson home.
