You’re tired of watching your energy bills climb every summer while your asphalt shingles take a beating from coastal storms. Metal roofing changes that equation completely.
Your new metal roof reflects heat away from your home, keeping indoor temperatures up to 30 degrees cooler during those humid Suffolk County summers. That translates to real savings—around 40% less on your cooling costs year after year.
But the benefits go deeper than your monthly utility bill. You’re investing in a roof that lasts 50+ years, not the typical 20 you get from asphalt shingles. No more worrying about wind damage when the next nor’easter rolls through, or replacing your roof again in two decades.
We bring decades of exterior renovation experience specifically to Suffolk County homeowners. We’re not a national chain trying to figure out your local weather patterns—we’ve been here, working through every hurricane season, nor’easter, and summer heat wave.
Our family-owned approach means every metal roofing project gets personal oversight. We combine traditional craftsmanship with modern metal roofing techniques because we understand what works in Northampton’s unique coastal climate.
When 45 hurricanes have hit Suffolk County since 1930, you need contractors who know how to build for these conditions. That’s exactly what you get with our team.
Your metal roofing project starts with a thorough inspection of your existing roof and honest assessment of what needs to happen. We’ll walk you through exactly what we find and explain your options without pressure.
Once you decide to move forward, we handle all permits and material ordering. Our installation team arrives on schedule with everything needed to complete your project efficiently. We protect your property, remove old roofing materials responsibly, and install your new metal roof using proven techniques designed for Suffolk County’s weather challenges.
The final step involves a complete cleanup and walkthrough with you to ensure everything meets our family name standards. You’ll have our direct contact information for any questions down the road.

Your metal roof installation includes materials specifically chosen for Suffolk County’s coastal environment. We use standing seam or exposed fastener systems depending on your home’s needs, all with advanced coatings that reflect solar radiation and resist salt air corrosion.
Every metal roofing system we install comes with proper ventilation and insulation to maximize energy efficiency year-round. During those humid summers, your roof actively reflects heat away. In winter, proper installation helps retain warmth and prevent ice dam formation.
Suffolk County’s temperature swings from 23 degrees in January to 81 degrees in July put serious stress on roofing materials. Metal roofing handles these extremes better than any other material, expanding and contracting safely when installed with proper fastening techniques.
Metal roofing typically costs more upfront than asphalt shingles—expect around $11,000 for a 2,300 square foot roof compared to $7,000-$9,000 for asphalt. However, the real cost comparison happens over time.
Your asphalt shingles will need replacement in 20-25 years, while metal roofing lasts 50+ years. Factor in the 40% energy savings you’ll see immediately, plus no replacement costs for decades, and metal roofing often costs less over its lifetime.
In Suffolk County’s harsh weather, asphalt shingles may need replacement even sooner due to storm damage and coastal conditions. Metal roofing eliminates that concern completely.
Modern metal roofing installation techniques virtually eliminate noise concerns. When properly installed with adequate insulation and underlayment, metal roofs are no noisier than asphalt shingles during rain or hail.
The key is proper installation. We install metal roofing over solid decking with appropriate insulation layers that dampen any sound. Most homeowners are surprised to discover their new metal roof is actually quieter than their old asphalt shingles.
Suffolk County gets its share of storms, and you’ll appreciate having a roof that handles heavy rain and hail without the noise concerns of older metal roofing installations.
Metal roofing is specifically designed to withstand extreme weather, including the hurricane-force winds Suffolk County experiences. Properly installed metal roofing can handle winds up to 140 mph without damage.
The interlocking seam design and secure fastening systems we use create a continuous barrier that won’t lift or separate under high winds. Unlike asphalt shingles that can blow off individually, metal roofing stays intact as a complete system.
Given that 45 hurricanes have hit Suffolk County since 1930, investing in hurricane-resistant roofing makes financial sense. You avoid repeated storm damage repairs and insurance claims that come with less durable roofing materials.
Most residential metal roof installations in Northampton take 2-4 days depending on your home’s size and complexity. Simple ranch homes often complete in 2 days, while larger homes with multiple angles, chimneys, or skylights may take 3-4 days.
Weather can affect timing, especially during Suffolk County’s storm season. We monitor forecasts closely and adjust schedules to ensure quality installation. We’d rather delay a day than compromise your roof’s performance.
Our installation process includes complete cleanup each day, so your property stays neat throughout the project. We coordinate material deliveries to minimize disruption to your daily routine.
Metal roofing requires minimal maintenance compared to asphalt shingles. Annual visual inspections and occasional cleaning are typically all that’s needed to maintain your roof’s performance and appearance.
In Suffolk County’s coastal environment, we recommend rinsing your metal roof annually to remove salt buildup and debris. Check gutters and downspouts regularly to ensure proper drainage. Any loose fasteners or minor issues should be addressed promptly.
Unlike asphalt shingles that crack, curl, and require regular replacement, metal roofing maintains its integrity for decades with minimal intervention. This low maintenance requirement is one reason metal roofing offers such strong long-term value.
Metal roofing typically increases home value and appeals strongly to buyers, especially in areas like Suffolk County where weather durability matters. The combination of energy efficiency, longevity, and low maintenance creates immediate appeal.
Potential buyers recognize they won’t need roof replacement for decades, which removes a major expense from their future homeownership costs. The energy savings also make homes more attractive in today’s market where utility costs continue rising.
Real estate agents in Suffolk County report that homes with metal roofing often sell faster and command higher prices than comparable homes with asphalt shingles. The investment in metal roofing typically returns 70-80% of its cost in increased home value.
