Picture this: the next big storm hits Gilgo, and you’re not scrambling for buckets or calling emergency repair services at 2 AM. Your new roof handles whatever Long Island weather throws at it.
You wake up dry. Your ceilings stay intact. Your energy bills drop because your home actually holds temperature the way it should.
That’s what happens when you stop patching problems and start with a roof installation that’s built right from day one. No more wondering if this winter will be the one that finally does your old roof in.
SkyLuxe Construction isn’t some fly-by-night operation that showed up yesterday. We’re a family business that’s been solving roofing problems in Suffolk County for decades.
We know Gilgo. We know how the salt air affects your materials, how the coastal winds test every nail and seal, and what it takes to build a roof that lasts here.
Every roof installation gets personal oversight from our family to yours. We combine old-school craftsmanship with modern materials and techniques because that’s what works in our local climate.
First, we inspect everything – not just what’s visible from the ground. We check your decking, ventilation, and structural integrity to catch problems before they become expensive surprises.
Then we strip everything down to the deck and replace any damaged wood. We install a complete weather protection system: deck protection, leak barriers, starter strips, quality shingles, proper ventilation, and ridge caps.
We clean up completely when we’re done. No nails in your driveway, no debris in your landscaping. Just a roof that’s ready to protect your home for the next 20-30 years.

Your roof installation includes everything needed to handle Gilgo’s unique challenges. We use impact-resistant materials that stand up to coastal storms and salt air exposure.
Every installation meets or exceeds local building codes and manufacturer specifications. We’re licensed in Suffolk County and carry full insurance because this is serious work that requires serious professionals.
You get a comprehensive warranty on both materials and workmanship. We also provide detailed documentation of your installation, which helps with insurance claims and adds value when you sell your home.
Most residential roof installations in Gilgo take 1-3 days, depending on your home’s size and complexity. Weather can extend this timeline, but we don’t rush quality work.
We start early and work efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily routine. Our crews are experienced with Suffolk County building requirements and local permit processes, which keeps projects on schedule.
If weather delays the project, we secure your home completely before leaving each day. Your protection is our priority, even during the installation process.
Gilgo’s salt air and coastal storms require materials that can handle moisture and high winds. We typically recommend architectural asphalt shingles or metal roofing systems designed for coastal applications.
These materials resist algae growth, wind uplift, and salt corrosion better than basic options. We also use enhanced underlayment and flashing systems that create multiple barriers against water intrusion.
The specific material choice depends on your home’s architecture, your budget, and your long-term plans. We’ll explain the pros and cons of each option during your consultation.
Yes, roof installations in Gilgo require building permits from the Town of Babylon. We handle all permit applications and inspections as part of our service.
The permit process typically takes 1-2 weeks, and we can’t start work until permits are approved. This protects you by ensuring the work meets local building codes and safety standards.
We coordinate with local inspectors throughout the project to ensure everything passes inspection the first time. This is included in our service – you don’t pay extra for permit handling or inspection coordination.
If your roof is over 15-20 years old and you’re dealing with multiple leaks, missing shingles, or visible sagging, replacement usually makes more financial sense than repairs.
We provide honest assessments during our inspections. Sometimes a few targeted repairs can extend your roof’s life by several years. Other times, continuing to patch an aging system just wastes money.
Our evaluation looks at the roof deck condition, the extent of damage, and the age of your current system. We’ll show you exactly what we find and explain why we recommend repair or replacement.
Our roof installations include comprehensive warranties covering both materials and workmanship. Material warranties typically range from 25-50 years depending on the products chosen.
Our workmanship warranty covers installation quality for several years after completion. This means if something fails due to installation error, we fix it at no charge to you.
We also help with manufacturer warranty claims if needed. Having proper installation documentation and working with certified installers protects your warranty coverage long-term.
Roof installation costs in Gilgo typically range from $15,000-$30,000 for most homes, depending on size, materials chosen, and complexity of the job.
Factors affecting price include roof pitch, number of penetrations (chimneys, vents, skylights), accessibility, and material selection. We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs clearly.
We also help homeowners explore financing options and insurance coverage. Many insurance policies cover roof replacement after storm damage, and we assist with the claims process when applicable.
