Your roof stops being a worry. Metal roofing handles whatever Suffolk County weather throws at it—from nor’easters to summer storms—while cutting your energy bills year after year.
You’re looking at 40+ years of protection instead of replacing shingles every 15-20 years. That’s fewer disruptions, fewer expenses, and more peace of mind. Plus, your home value goes up the day we finish installation.
The best part? You’ll barely think about your roof again. Metal roofing requires almost no maintenance compared to traditional materials, which means more time for what matters to you.
We’ve been serving Southold and Suffolk County homeowners for years, specializing in exterior home improvements that actually last. We understand the unique challenges of Long Island weather—from hurricane-force winds to heavy snow loads.
Our team focuses exclusively on residential work in Suffolk County, which means we know local building codes, permit requirements, and the specific roofing challenges your neighborhood faces. We’re not a fly-by-night operation or a national chain with no local accountability.
Every project comes with proper licensing, full insurance coverage, and the kind of local references that matter when you’re making a major investment in your home.
We start with a detailed inspection of your current roof structure and discuss your specific needs and preferences. You’ll get a comprehensive estimate that covers everything—no surprise costs later.
During installation, we handle the complete tear-off and disposal of your old roofing materials. Our crew prepares the roof deck, installs proper underlayment, and then begins the metal roofing installation using manufacturer-approved techniques.
Most residential metal roof installations in Southold take 2-4 days, depending on your home’s size and complexity. We clean up completely each day and protect your landscaping throughout the process. You’ll have a final walkthrough to ensure everything meets our standards before we consider the job complete.

Your metal roofing project includes complete tear-off and disposal of existing materials, structural repairs if needed, and professional installation of your chosen metal roofing system. We work with standing seam, metal shingles, and other premium options.
In Southold’s coastal environment, we pay special attention to proper ventilation and moisture management. Salt air and humidity require specific installation techniques that many contractors skip. We don’t.
You’ll also receive detailed warranty information covering both materials and workmanship. Most metal roofing systems come with 30-50 year manufacturer warranties, plus our own guarantee on installation quality. We provide all necessary permits and ensure everything meets Suffolk County building codes.
Metal roofing typically costs $12-18 per square foot installed in the Southold area, though the exact price depends on your roof’s size, complexity, and the metal type you choose. Standing seam steel generally costs less than aluminum or copper options.
The higher upfront cost compared to asphalt shingles pays for itself over time. You’ll save on energy bills due to metal’s reflective properties, avoid frequent repairs, and won’t need another roof replacement for 40+ years. Most Southold homeowners find the long-term value makes metal roofing a smart investment.
We provide detailed estimates that break down all costs—materials, labor, permits, and cleanup—so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
Modern metal roofing with proper installation and insulation isn’t significantly noisier than other roofing materials. The key is using adequate underlayment and ensuring your attic has proper insulation.
Most of our Southold customers are surprised that their new metal roof sounds quieter during rain than their old asphalt shingles. This is because we use sound-dampening techniques and quality materials that absorb rather than amplify sound.
If noise is a concern, we can discuss additional sound-dampening options during your consultation. The slight sound difference is usually far outweighed by the peace of mind that comes with knowing your roof can handle whatever weather Suffolk County delivers.
Most residential metal roofing projects in Southold take 2-4 days from start to finish, depending on your roof’s size and complexity. Simple ranch homes might be completed in 2 days, while larger homes with multiple dormers or complex angles may take 4-5 days.
Weather can affect timing, especially during Suffolk County’s unpredictable spring and fall seasons. We monitor forecasts closely and will pause work if conditions aren’t safe or could compromise installation quality.
We provide a realistic timeline during your estimate and keep you updated throughout the project. Our goal is quality installation, not speed, so we won’t rush critical steps to meet an arbitrary deadline.
Aluminum and copper perform exceptionally well in Southold’s coastal environment because they resist salt corrosion naturally. Steel options with proper coatings also work well and typically cost less than aluminum.
Standing seam systems are particularly good for coastal areas because they have fewer penetrations where salt air could cause problems. The panels interlock tightly and shed water quickly, which is important when dealing with wind-driven rain from nor’easters.
We’ll recommend specific materials and coatings based on your home’s exposure to salt air. Properties closer to the water need more corrosion-resistant options, while inland Southold homes have more flexibility in material choices.
Yes, roof replacement in Southold requires building permits through Suffolk County. We handle all permit applications and ensure your project meets local building codes and requirements.
The permit process typically takes 1-2 weeks, and we won’t start work until permits are approved and posted. This protects you from potential code violations and ensures your insurance coverage remains valid.
Suffolk County has specific requirements for wind resistance and structural attachments, especially given Long Island’s exposure to hurricanes and severe storms. We’re familiar with these requirements and ensure your installation exceeds minimum standards.
Metal roofing typically includes two separate warranties: a manufacturer warranty on materials (usually 30-50 years) and our workmanship warranty on installation (typically 5-10 years).
The manufacturer warranty covers defects in the metal panels, coatings, and other roofing components. Our workmanship warranty covers installation-related issues like leaks or attachment problems.
We provide detailed warranty information for your specific materials and explain exactly what’s covered. Most quality metal roofing systems are designed to last much longer than their warranty periods, so you’re getting protection that extends well beyond the coverage terms.
