Hear from Our Customers
You know that feeling when you hear rain hitting your roof and wonder if this is the night it finally gives way. That stops here. A properly installed roof means no more buckets in the attic, no more stressing about the next storm, and no more wondering if your biggest investment is actually protected.
When your roof installation is done right, you get decades of reliable protection. Your energy bills stay predictable because your insulation stays dry. Your home value holds strong because buyers see quality work that won’t need replacing anytime soon.
The peace of mind alone is worth it. You’ll actually look forward to weather reports instead of dreading them.
We’ve been installing roofs across Suffolk County for decades, and we’ve learned what matters most to Blue Point homeowners. You want contractors who show up when they say they will, use materials that actually last, and stand behind their work when the job is done.
We’re not the cheapest option, and that’s intentional. Quality materials cost more upfront but save you thousands in repairs and replacements down the road. Our installations use proven techniques that handle Long Island’s unpredictable weather, from nor’easters to summer storms.
Every project gets personal oversight from our family-owned team. We live here too, so your satisfaction directly affects our reputation in the community we call home.
First, we inspect your existing roof and measure everything precisely. No ballpark estimates that change later. You get a detailed breakdown of materials, labor, and timeline before any work begins.
Next comes the preparation. We protect your landscaping, set up proper safety equipment, and handle all permit requirements. The old roof comes off systematically, and we inspect the decking for any issues that need addressing before the new installation.
Installation happens in stages. Underlayment goes down first, then shingles are installed following manufacturer specifications. Flashing gets sealed properly around chimneys, vents, and roof penetrations. Finally, we clean up completely and walk through the finished work with you to ensure everything meets your expectations.

Your roof installation covers everything from tear-off to final cleanup. We remove old materials, inspect and repair decking as needed, install proper underlayment, and apply new shingles according to manufacturer specifications. All flashing gets replaced, not just patched.
Blue Point homes face unique challenges with coastal weather patterns and seasonal temperature swings. We account for this with proper ventilation systems that prevent ice dams in winter and reduce heat buildup in summer. Your installation includes ridge vents, soffit vents, and proper attic airflow to extend your roof’s lifespan.
Material choices matter here. Asphalt shingles work well for most Blue Point homes, lasting 20-30 years with proper installation. For homes near the water or in particularly exposed areas, we discuss upgraded options like architectural shingles or metal roofing that handle wind and salt exposure better.
Most residential roof installations in Blue Point take 2-4 days, depending on your roof size and complexity. Weather can extend this timeline, especially during Long Island’s unpredictable spring and fall seasons.
We start early each day to maximize productive hours and minimize disruption to your routine. Simple ranch-style homes often finish in two days, while multi-level homes with dormers or complex angles need additional time for proper installation around all the details.
The timeline includes complete tear-off, any necessary decking repairs, and full installation of your new roofing system. We don’t rush the process because shortcuts lead to problems later.
Asphalt shingles handle Blue Point’s climate well and offer the best value for most homeowners. Architectural shingles provide better wind resistance than basic three-tab shingles, which matters during nor’easters and summer storms.
For homes in particularly exposed locations or near the water, metal roofing offers superior durability against salt air and high winds. The upfront cost is higher, but metal roofs can last 40-50 years with minimal maintenance.
We evaluate your specific location, home style, and budget to recommend materials that make sense for your situation. There’s no one-size-fits-all solution, but there are definitely materials that perform better in our local conditions.
Yes, roof installations in Blue Point require building permits, and we handle all the paperwork for you. Suffolk County has specific requirements for roofing work, and permits ensure the installation meets current building codes.
The permit process typically takes 1-2 weeks, so we start this early in the planning phase. Inspections happen at key stages during installation to verify proper techniques and materials are being used.
Working without permits can create problems when you sell your home or file insurance claims. We make sure everything is documented properly so you never have to worry about compliance issues down the road.
Roof installation costs in Blue Point typically range from $8,000 to $25,000 for most homes, depending on size, materials, and complexity. A standard 1,500 square foot ranch with asphalt shingles usually runs $12,000-$18,000 installed.
Factors that affect cost include your roof’s pitch, the number of penetrations like chimneys and skylights, and whether decking needs replacement. Homes built in the 1980s sometimes need sheathing upgrades to meet current codes, which adds to the total.
We provide detailed written estimates that break down materials and labor separately, so you understand exactly what you’re paying for. No hidden fees or surprise charges after work begins.
Your roof installation includes both manufacturer warranties on materials and our workmanship warranty on the installation itself. Asphalt shingles typically carry 20-30 year manufacturer warranties, while our installation work is warranted for several years.
The key is proper installation technique. Manufacturer warranties can be voided if shingles aren’t installed according to their specifications, which is why professional installation matters. We follow all requirements to ensure your warranty stays valid.
We also provide ongoing support if issues arise. Roofing problems are rarely convenient, so we respond quickly to warranty calls and address concerns promptly to protect your investment.
Late spring through early fall offers the best conditions for roof installation in Blue Point. May through October typically provides consistent weather with fewer surprise storms that can delay work.
Summer installations can be challenging due to heat, but the stable weather patterns make scheduling more predictable. Fall installations work well before winter weather arrives, though scheduling fills up quickly as homeowners prepare for the cold season.
We work year-round when weather permits, but spring and fall bookings tend to fill earliest. If you’re planning a roof installation, contacting us several months ahead helps ensure we can schedule your project when conditions are optimal.
