When your metal roof is properly installed, you’re looking at 50+ years of protection instead of replacing asphalt shingles every 8-12 years. Your new metal roof reflects heat during brutal Long Island summers, cutting cooling costs by up to 25%. No more worrying about wind damage during nor’easters or ice dams during heavy snow seasons.
You get peace of mind knowing your roof can handle 140-mph winds, heavy snow loads, and hail that would damage traditional roofing. Plus, your property value increases significantly with a premium metal roof that buyers recognize as a smart, long-term investment.
The maintenance is practically nonexistent. An occasional rinse from the ground keeps it looking great while other homeowners are dealing with repairs, leaks, and replacements.
We’ve been serving Suffolk County homeowners with metal roofing solutions designed specifically for our unique weather challenges. We understand what Long Island throws at your roof—from coastal salt air to heavy snow loads to summer heat that can buckle inferior materials.
Our team knows local building codes inside and out. We’ve handled everything from historic homes in Poquott to modern builds across Suffolk County, always using the highest-quality materials that can handle decades of Long Island weather.
When you work with a local contractor who’s seen every type of weather damage and knows exactly which materials perform best here, you get results that last. We’re not just installing a roof—we’re protecting your biggest investment with solutions proven in our specific climate.
We start with a thorough consultation at your property to assess your current roof, discuss your needs, and explain your metal roofing options. You’ll see exactly what we recommend and why, with no surprises about materials or costs.
Next, we handle all permits and scheduling, coordinating delivery of your premium metal roofing materials. Our experienced crew removes your old roofing carefully, inspects the decking for any issues, and installs proper underlayment before your new metal roof goes on.
The installation itself takes longer than asphalt—typically 2-3 times longer—because metal roofing requires specialized techniques and precision. But this extra care ensures your roof is installed correctly the first time, with every seam, fastener, and detail done right.
We clean up completely when finished, leaving you with a beautiful new metal roof backed by comprehensive warranties on both materials and workmanship.

We offer standing seam, corrugated, and metal roofing sheets in various styles and colors to match your home’s architecture. Steel roofing with galvanized or Galvalume coatings provides excellent corrosion resistance—crucial for Suffolk County’s coastal environment. Aluminum options work especially well near the water for their superior rust resistance.
Your metal roof comes with reflective coatings that bounce back solar heat, keeping your home cooler during Long Island’s hot summers. This isn’t just about comfort—it’s about cutting your cooling costs significantly while reducing strain on your HVAC system.
We customize every installation based on your home’s specific needs. Steep roofs, complex angles, skylights, chimneys—we handle it all with the same attention to detail. In Poquott and throughout Suffolk County, we’ve learned that coastal conditions, snow loads, and temperature swings require materials and installation techniques that many contractors don’t fully understand.
Every metal roof we install meets or exceeds local building codes and is designed to handle the weather extremes that make Long Island challenging for roofing materials.
Metal roofing in the Long Island area typically costs between $10,000 and $54,500 for an average-sized home, or about $7-14 per square foot installed. The final cost depends on your roof size, the type of metal you choose, and complexity factors like steep pitches or multiple levels.
While this is 2-3 times more than asphalt shingles upfront, you need to consider the full picture. Asphalt roofs require replacement every 8-12 years, while your metal roof lasts 50+ years with minimal maintenance. When you factor in energy savings from reduced cooling costs and the increased property value, metal roofing often pays for itself over time.
We provide detailed, transparent estimates that break down all costs so you understand exactly what you’re investing in and why.
Metal roofing is specifically designed to handle Long Island’s challenging weather. Your metal roof can withstand winds up to 140 mph—far exceeding what most storms produce. Heavy snow loads that cause problems for other roofing materials aren’t an issue because metal roofs shed snow quickly, preventing ice dams and structural stress.
The coastal salt air that corrodes many materials won’t affect properly coated metal roofing. We use galvanized and Galvalume coatings specifically chosen for Suffolk County’s environment. Hail that dents or cracks asphalt shingles typically bounces right off metal without damage.
During summer heat waves, metal roofing reflects solar radiation instead of absorbing it, keeping your home cooler and reducing thermal expansion that damages other materials. This is why metal roofing has become increasingly popular in areas experiencing more extreme weather—it’s built to last through conditions that destroy traditional roofing.
Metal roofing installation takes 2-3 times longer than asphalt shingle installation because of the precision required. For most homes in Poquott, expect the project to take 3-5 days depending on your roof’s size and complexity.
This isn’t a drawback—it’s actually a benefit. The extra time ensures every seam is properly sealed, every fastener is correctly placed, and every detail meets the high standards metal roofing requires. Rushing a metal roof installation leads to problems down the road, which is why we take the time to do it right the first time.
We coordinate the entire process to minimize disruption to your daily routine. Weather delays are always possible on Long Island, but we plan for contingencies and keep you informed throughout the project. The result is a roof installed with the precision and care that ensures decades of reliable performance.
Modern metal roofing with proper installation and solid sheathing actually reduces noise from rain and storms compared to many other roofing materials. The key is professional installation with appropriate underlayment and insulation.
The “noisy metal roof” reputation comes from old agricultural buildings with metal roofing installed directly over open rafters. Your home installation includes solid decking, quality underlayment, and proper insulation that dampen sound effectively.
Many of our Poquott customers are surprised to find their new metal roof is actually quieter during storms than their previous asphalt roof was. The solid construction and quality materials we use create a barrier that reduces noise transmission rather than amplifying it. You’ll enjoy the peace of mind that comes with knowing your roof is protecting you without the distraction of excess noise.
Metal roofing requires minimal maintenance compared to other roofing materials—one of its biggest advantages. An occasional rinse with a garden hose from the ground removes debris and keeps your roof looking great. That’s typically all the regular maintenance required.
We recommend annual visual inspections to check for loose fasteners around penetrations like vents and chimneys, especially after severe weather. Any scratches in the protective coating should be touched up promptly to prevent rust, though this is rare with quality materials properly installed.
Suffolk County’s coastal environment means checking for salt buildup if you’re near the water, but a simple rinse handles this easily. Compare this to asphalt roofs that require regular repairs, cleaning, and eventual replacement every decade or so. With metal roofing, you’re essentially maintenance-free for decades, saving both time and money while enjoying reliable protection.
Metal roofing significantly increases property value in the Suffolk County market. Potential buyers recognize the long-term benefits—50+ year lifespan, energy efficiency, low maintenance, and superior weather resistance. These aren’t just selling points; they represent real financial value.
Real estate professionals in our area report that homes with metal roofing often sell faster and for higher prices than comparable homes with asphalt roofing. Buyers understand they won’t face roof replacement costs for decades, won’t deal with storm damage repairs, and will enjoy lower energy bills.
The investment in metal roofing typically returns 60-70% of its cost in increased home value immediately, with the remainder recovered through energy savings and avoided maintenance costs. In Poquott’s market, where quality and longevity matter to buyers, a metal roof is often seen as a premium upgrade that sets a property apart from others.
