You’re done dealing with shingle blow-offs after every major storm. Your new metal roof handles Cold Spring Harbor’s coastal weather—heavy snow loads, driving rain, and those brutal nor’easters that test every roof on Long Island.
Your energy bills drop because metal reflects heat instead of absorbing it like asphalt. During those sweltering July days, your AC doesn’t work overtime. Come winter, proper insulation keeps warmth where it belongs.
Most importantly, you stop worrying about your roof. No more emergency calls to contractors. No more tarps. No more wondering if this storm will be the one that finally does serious damage.
We’ve been protecting Suffolk County homes for years, and we understand what Cold Spring Harbor weather does to roofs. We’re not some fly-by-night operation—we’re licensed in Suffolk County, fully insured, and our owner Al personally oversees every job.
You can check our 4.9 rating and verified reviews. You can see our completed projects throughout the area. Most importantly, you can count on us to be here when your warranty matters, because this is our community too.
We’ve seen what happens when homeowners choose the cheapest bid from contractors who disappear after cashing checks. That’s not how we operate.
We start with a thorough inspection of your existing roof and provide a detailed written estimate. No surprises, no hidden costs. You know exactly what you’re getting and what it costs before we start.
Next comes the complete tear-off of your old roofing down to the decking. We inspect and replace any damaged wood, install proper underlayment, and ensure your roof structure can handle Long Island’s weather for decades.
Then we install your new metal roofing system with proper flashing around chimneys, vents, and roof penetrations. Every seam is sealed correctly. Every fastener is placed right. When we’re done, you get a final walkthrough to ensure everything meets your expectations and our standards.

Your metal roof comes with a 40-70 year lifespan, not the 15-20 years you get from asphalt shingles. That means you’re likely done with roof replacements for the rest of the time you live in your Cold Spring Harbor home.
Energy efficiency is real—metal roofing reflects solar heat, reducing your cooling costs by up to 25%. Given Long Island’s energy prices, that adds up to serious savings over time. Many insurance companies also offer discounts for metal roofing because of its fire resistance.
Cold Spring Harbor’s coastal location means your roof faces salt air, driving rain, and temperature swings that destroy lesser materials. Metal roofing handles it all—high winds, hail, heavy snow loads, and those sudden temperature changes that cause other roofing materials to crack and fail.
Metal roofing in Suffolk County typically costs $10-$16 per square foot installed, compared to $5-$9 for asphalt shingles. For an average 1,500 square foot roof, you’re looking at around $15,000-$24,000 for quality metal roofing.
Yes, that’s more upfront than asphalt. But here’s what matters: asphalt shingles last 15-20 years in Long Island’s climate, while metal roofing lasts 40-70 years. You’re not just buying a roof—you’re buying the last roof you’ll likely ever need.
Factor in energy savings from metal’s reflective properties, potential insurance discounts, and increased home value, and metal roofing often costs less per year than repeatedly replacing asphalt shingles.
Properly installed metal roofing with adequate insulation and underlayment is not significantly noisier than other roofing materials during rain or storms. The “noisy metal roof” issue comes from poorly installed systems without proper sound dampening.
We install metal roofing over solid decking with quality underlayment, which acts as a sound barrier. Your attic insulation provides additional sound dampening. Most homeowners are surprised that their new metal roof is actually quieter during storms than their old asphalt shingle roof.
The bigger issue in Cold Spring Harbor isn’t noise—it’s protection. When your neighbors are dealing with blown-off shingles and emergency repairs after major storms, your metal roof handles the weather without damage.
Most residential metal roof installations in Cold Spring Harbor take 2-5 days, depending on roof size, complexity, and weather conditions. This includes complete tear-off of existing roofing, inspection and repair of decking if needed, and installation of your new metal roofing system.
Metal roofing installation takes longer than asphalt shingles because it requires more precision and specialized techniques. Every seam must be properly sealed, every fastener correctly placed, and all flashing details properly executed to ensure decades of weather protection.
We don’t rush the job to save time. Cold Spring Harbor’s coastal weather demands perfect installation, and that’s what you get. A few extra days of installation means decades of reliable protection.
For Cold Spring Harbor’s coastal environment, aluminum and galvanized steel with proper coatings perform exceptionally well. Aluminum naturally resists salt air corrosion, while galvanized steel with quality paint systems provides excellent durability and weather protection.
Standing seam metal roofing systems work particularly well in coastal areas because the raised seams shed water effectively and the interlocking panels resist wind uplift—important considerations given Long Island’s nor’easters and coastal storms.
We help you choose the right metal roofing material based on your home’s architecture, your budget, and Cold Spring Harbor’s specific weather challenges. The goal is a roof that looks great and protects your home for decades, not just the cheapest option available.
Yes, metal roofing typically increases home value in Cold Spring Harbor and throughout Suffolk County. Potential buyers recognize the long-term benefits: reduced maintenance, energy savings, superior weather protection, and the fact they won’t need to replace the roof for decades.
Real estate professionals often note that homes with quality metal roofing stand out in listings, especially in coastal areas like Cold Spring Harbor where weather protection is a major concern for buyers. The investment in metal roofing often pays for itself in increased resale value.
More importantly, if you’re staying in your Cold Spring Harbor home long-term, metal roofing provides peace of mind and eliminates the stress of repeated roof repairs and replacements that other materials require.
Replace your roof with metal roofing when your current roof shows signs of widespread damage, frequent leaks, or is approaching 15-20 years old. In Cold Spring Harbor’s climate, asphalt shingles typically need replacement every 15-20 years, making it an ideal time to upgrade to metal.
Don’t wait for emergency situations. If you’re spending money on repeated repairs, dealing with leaks after every major storm, or notice missing or curling shingles, it’s time to consider metal roofing. Proactive replacement costs less than emergency repairs and water damage restoration.
The best time for installation is during favorable weather conditions, typically late spring through early fall. However, we can install metal roofing year-round in Cold Spring Harbor, and emergency installations are available when weather damage requires immediate attention.
