Your new metal roof transforms more than just your home’s appearance. You’re looking at decades of worry-free protection against Long Island’s harshest weather, from hurricane-force winds to heavy snow loads.
Energy bills drop by 10-25% as reflective metal surfaces bounce solar heat away from your home. No more dreading summer cooling costs or winter ice dam repairs.
Most importantly, you get peace of mind. While your neighbors face repeated roof replacements every 15-20 years, your metal roof keeps performing for 50-80 years with minimal maintenance.
SkyLuxe Construction isn’t just another roofing company. We’re a family legacy built on decades of exterior renovation experience right here in Suffolk County.
We’ve weathered every storm Long Island has thrown at us, from nor’easters to hurricanes. That experience shows in every metal roof we install, combining time-tested craftsmanship with modern hurricane-resistant techniques.
Our local expertise means we understand Babylon’s unique challenges. We know which metal roofing systems perform best against coastal winds, how to handle the permitting process, and which materials offer the best value for Suffolk County homeowners.
We start with a thorough inspection of your existing roof and property. Our team evaluates structural integrity, identifies any necessary repairs, and discusses your specific needs and preferences for materials and design.
Next comes precise measurement and engineering. Every metal roofing system is custom-designed for your home’s specifications, ensuring proper wind uplift resistance and water management for Babylon’s climate conditions.
Installation begins with careful removal of old materials and preparation of the roof deck. We install high-performance underlayment, then secure interlocking metal panels using specialized fasteners designed to withstand 140+ mph winds. Final steps include flashing installation, gutter integration, and thorough cleanup.

Our metal roofing systems are specifically chosen for Suffolk County’s demanding climate. We install standing seam, architectural metal shingles, and corrugated panels, all rated for Class 4 impact resistance and hurricane-force wind uplift.
Babylon homeowners face unique challenges from coastal humidity, salt air, and severe weather events. Our aluminum and galvanized steel options resist corrosion while providing superior fire resistance with Class A ratings.
Every installation includes comprehensive warranties covering both materials and workmanship. We use only hurricane-tested fastening systems and ensure proper ventilation to prevent moisture issues common in Long Island’s humid climate. Your investment is protected by both manufacturer guarantees and our commitment to quality craftsmanship.
Metal roofing costs vary based on your home’s size, roof complexity, and material choice, but most Babylon homeowners invest between $12,000-$25,000 for a complete replacement. While the upfront cost is higher than asphalt shingles, the long-term value is significant.
Consider this: a quality metal roof lasts 50-80 years versus 15-25 years for shingles. You’ll likely replace an asphalt roof 2-3 times in the same period, making metal roofing more cost-effective over time.
Factor in energy savings of 10-25% on cooling costs, reduced maintenance expenses, and increased home value, and most homeowners see positive returns within 10-15 years. We provide detailed cost breakdowns during our free consultation so you can make an informed decision.
Absolutely. Our metal roofing systems are engineered specifically for hurricane resistance, tested to withstand sustained winds of 140+ mph – equivalent to a Category 4 hurricane. The interlocking panel design creates a unified surface that won’t tear off like individual shingles.
Long Island’s location makes hurricane preparedness critical. Metal roofing offers Class 4 impact resistance against hail up to 2 inches in diameter and superior performance against wind-driven rain infiltration.
We follow strict installation protocols including hurricane ties and specialized fastening systems. Many of our metal roofs have successfully weathered major storms including Hurricane Sandy with minimal damage while neighboring asphalt roofs required complete replacement.
Metal roofing requires minimal maintenance compared to other roofing materials, which is one of its major advantages for busy Suffolk County homeowners. We recommend annual visual inspections and gutter cleaning to ensure optimal performance.
The main maintenance tasks include removing debris from gutters and roof valleys, checking for loose fasteners after severe storms, and occasional washing to maintain appearance. Most metal roofs never need repairs during their first 20-30 years.
In coastal areas like Babylon, we recommend periodic inspection of fasteners and flashing, but the corrosion-resistant materials we use are specifically chosen for Long Island’s salt air environment. Your biggest maintenance task will be enjoying the energy savings and peace of mind.
Metal roofing excels in Babylon’s varied climate conditions. The reflective surface reduces cooling costs during hot, humid summers by reflecting solar heat away from your home. In winter, the smooth surface sheds snow efficiently, preventing ice dam formation that plagues many Long Island homes.
Coastal humidity and salt air don’t affect properly installed metal roofing. We use aluminum and galvanized steel with protective coatings designed for marine environments. These materials resist corrosion far better than traditional roofing materials.
The thermal expansion properties of metal are engineered into our installation process. Proper fastening techniques and expansion joints ensure your roof performs optimally through Suffolk County’s temperature swings from winter lows to summer heat without compromising structural integrity.
Modern metal roofing installation techniques virtually eliminate noise concerns. The key is proper installation with adequate insulation and solid roof decking, which we include as standard practice in all our installations.
When installed over solid plywood or OSB decking with quality underlayment, metal roofs are actually quieter than many other roofing materials during rain. The mass of the roof deck absorbs sound, while proper attic insulation provides additional sound dampening.
Many of our Babylon clients are surprised to discover their new metal roof is quieter than their previous asphalt shingle roof. The combination of professional installation techniques and quality materials ensures comfort during even the heaviest Long Island downpours.
Metal roofing typically increases home value by 1-6% according to real estate studies, with the exact amount depending on your home’s current value and the local market. In Suffolk County’s competitive real estate market, energy-efficient improvements like metal roofing are particularly attractive to buyers.
The 50+ year lifespan means potential buyers won’t face roofing concerns for decades. Energy efficiency documentation showing 10-25% cooling cost reductions adds measurable value. Many buyers specifically seek homes with hurricane-resistant features after experiencing storm damage.
Insurance companies often offer discounts for impact-resistant and fire-resistant roofing materials, providing ongoing savings that enhance your home’s marketability. The combination of durability, efficiency, and storm protection makes metal roofing a smart investment in Long Island’s climate.
