Hear from Our Customers
You get a roof that handles Long Island weather without drama. No more lying awake during storms wondering if water’s getting in. No more emergency calls to roofers after every nor’easter hits Suffolk County.
Your new roofing system means real protection. Proper installation stops leaks before they start, keeps your attic dry, and prevents the expensive damage that comes from water infiltration.
You also get lower energy costs. When your roof installation includes proper ventilation and quality materials, your heating and cooling systems don’t work overtime fighting against poor insulation and air leaks.
We’ve been installing roofs in Suffolk County since before most contractors even existed. We’re not the guys who show up after storms with door-to-door pitches and disappear when warranty issues arise.
We’re the local roofing company your Flanders neighbors actually recommend. Every residential roofing installation gets personal oversight from our experienced team, combining traditional craftsmanship with modern roofing techniques that work in our climate.
Suffolk County throws everything at roofs – coastal winds, nor’easters, summer storms, and winter freeze-thaw cycles. We know exactly which materials and installation methods survive here because we’ve been doing this work locally for decades.
First, we inspect your existing roof system completely. You’ll know exactly what needs replacement, what can stay, and why – no hidden costs or surprise discoveries halfway through the job.
Next comes proper tear-off when needed. We protect your landscaping and property, then remove old materials systematically. This includes checking roof decking and making structural repairs before new installation begins.
Installation follows manufacturer specifications and local building codes exactly. We install proper underlayment, ice and water shield, flashing, and ventilation. Every component gets placed according to proven methods that ensure decades of performance.
Final inspection covers every detail before we call it finished. We walk the entire roof, check all penetrations and flashing, clean up completely, and provide you with warranty documentation and maintenance guidelines.

Your roof installation includes complete removal of old materials when necessary. We don’t overlay new shingles over existing problems – that’s asking for leaks and shortened roof life down the road.
You get proper underlayment and ice dam protection throughout. This matters in Suffolk County where winter weather drives moisture under shingles. We install synthetic underlayment that outperforms traditional felt paper in our coastal climate.
All flashing gets replaced with new materials designed for Long Island conditions. Chimney flashing, valley flashing, and step flashing around dormers prevent most roof leaks, so we use quality materials and proven installation techniques.
Ventilation gets addressed properly during every installation. Ridge vents, soffit vents, and balanced airflow keep your attic dry and energy costs reasonable. Poor ventilation causes most premature roof failures, so we design systems that actually work.
Most residential roof installations in Flanders take 1-3 days, depending on your home’s size and complexity. Weather affects timing – we don’t install roofing systems in rain or high winds because it compromises quality and safety.
A straightforward ranch house might get completed in one full day with good weather conditions. Two-story homes with dormers, multiple chimneys, or complex rooflines typically require 2-3 days to complete properly without rushing.
We provide realistic timelines during your estimate based on your specific roof and current weather patterns. We’d rather schedule extra time than rush installation and create problems that show up later.
Architectural asphalt shingles perform well in Long Island’s climate and offer solid value for most homeowners. They resist wind uplift better than basic shingles and come with longer manufacturer warranties.
Metal roofing excels in Suffolk County conditions but requires higher upfront investment. It handles snow loads, resists wind damage, and can last 50+ years with minimal maintenance. Smart choice if you’re planning to stay long-term.
Synthetic materials are gaining popularity because they resist impact damage from hail and falling branches common in our area. They cost more than asphalt but less than metal, and they won’t rot or split like traditional wood shingles.
We recommend materials based on your budget, how long you plan to stay in your home, and the specific weather challenges your Flanders location faces throughout the year.
Yes, most roof installations require building permits in Suffolk County. We handle the entire permit application process as part of our roofing services – you don’t deal with paperwork or town hall visits.
Building permits ensure your roof installation meets local codes and gets proper inspection. This protects you during insurance claims and when selling your home – buyers and insurers want to see permitted work.
Some minor roof repairs don’t require permits, but full roofing system installations almost always do. We determine permit requirements upfront and include all costs in your project estimate.
Skipping permits might seem like a cost-saver initially, but it creates serious problems later. Insurance companies and potential buyers expect permitted work on major home components like roofing systems.
Age tells the biggest story – most asphalt shingle roofs need replacement after 20-25 years in Suffolk County’s climate. If your roof is approaching this age with multiple issues, replacement usually makes more financial sense than ongoing repairs.
Multiple leaks in different areas typically indicate your roofing system is failing systematically. Fixing leaks one at a time gets expensive quickly, and you’re still left with an aging roof developing new problems.
Missing shingles after storms, significant granule loss, or widespread curling edges signal material deterioration. We assess whether targeted repairs will hold or if you should start planning replacement.
During our inspection, we give you honest recommendations about what makes financial sense. Sometimes strategic repairs buy you time to plan replacement. Other times, continuing to patch an old roof wastes money that should go toward new installation.
Our workmanship warranty covers installation defects for the life of your roofing materials. If problems develop because of how we installed your roof, we fix them at no cost to you.
Material warranties come directly from manufacturers and vary by product type. Basic shingles might carry 25-year warranties, while premium materials offer 50-year or lifetime coverage options.
We work exclusively with manufacturers who stand behind their products and process warranty claims fairly. Our experience with GAF, Owens Corning, and CertainTeed has been consistently positive for our Suffolk County customers.
Proper installation makes all warranties meaningful – even premium materials fail when installed incorrectly. That’s why our installation warranty matters as much as the material warranty for your long-term protection.
Roof installation costs in Suffolk County typically range from $8,000-$15,000 for basic asphalt shingles, with premium materials or complex rooflines running $20,000-$35,000 or more depending on specific requirements.
Home size affects cost most significantly – roofing gets priced per square foot, so larger homes require more materials and labor. Steep pitches, multiple levels, and numerous dormers or chimneys increase both time and material waste.
Material selection impacts your investment substantially. Basic shingles offer the lowest upfront cost, architectural shingles provide better durability for moderate increase, and metal or synthetic options represent premium performance at premium prices.
We provide detailed written estimates breaking down materials, labor, permits, and any additional work needed. You’ll know exactly what you’re investing in before we start your roofing project.
