Hear from Our Customers
You get a roof that actually protects your investment. No callbacks for leaks six months later. No wondering if corners were cut. No dealing with contractors who disappear after cashing your check.
When your roof installation is done right, you sleep better during storms. Your energy bills stay predictable. Your home value increases instead of getting dragged down by obvious patch jobs and amateur work.
The difference between professional installation and everything else shows up in the details most homeowners never see. Proper flashing around chimneys. Correct ventilation that prevents ice dams. Underlayment that creates a real barrier against Long Island’s weather.
We’ve been handling exterior renovations across Suffolk County for decades. This isn’t a side business or something we picked up last year.
Every roof installation gets personal oversight from our team. We combine old-school craftsmanship with modern materials and techniques because your home deserves both durability and performance.
Head Of The Harbor homeowners deal with unique challenges. Salt air from the harbor. Temperature swings. Storm systems that roll in off the water. We understand these local conditions and use materials and installation methods that hold up in this environment.
First, we inspect your existing roof and measure everything properly. No guesswork on materials or timing. You get a detailed written estimate that covers the full scope of work.
When installation starts, we strip everything down to the roof deck. Any damaged or rotted wood gets replaced before new materials go on. We install proper underlayment, starter strips, and ventilation systems according to manufacturer specifications.
Your new roofing system gets installed with attention to every detail. Proper flashing around penetrations. Correct fastening patterns. Ridge vents positioned for optimal airflow. We clean up completely when finished and walk through everything with you to ensure you’re satisfied.

Your roof installation includes complete tear-off of existing materials, inspection and repair of roof decking, and installation of a complete roofing system. We use quality underlayment, proper ventilation, and materials designed for Suffolk County’s coastal climate.
In Head Of The Harbor, homes face specific challenges from salt air and temperature fluctuations. We account for these conditions in material selection and installation techniques. Your installation includes proper flashing around chimneys and other roof penetrations, adequate ventilation to prevent ice dams, and fastening methods that hold up in high winds.
Every installation comes with manufacturer warranties on materials plus our workmanship guarantee. You get documentation of all work performed and recommendations for maintenance that keeps your roof performing properly for years to come.
Most residential roof installations take 2-4 days depending on size, complexity, and weather conditions. Simple ranch homes often finish in 2 days while larger homes with multiple levels or complex roof lines may take 3-4 days.
We schedule installations to minimize disruption to your daily routine. Weather delays happen, especially during Long Island’s storm season, but we communicate any changes immediately and reschedule as soon as conditions allow.
The timeline includes complete tear-off, deck inspection and repairs, and installation of your new roofing system. We don’t rush the process because proper installation techniques take time to execute correctly.
Architectural asphalt shingles perform well in Head Of The Harbor’s coastal environment when properly installed with quality underlayment. Metal roofing also handles salt air and temperature changes effectively, though it requires specific installation techniques for coastal applications.
The key isn’t just material choice but proper installation methods. We use corrosion-resistant fasteners, adequate ventilation systems, and flashing materials designed for coastal conditions. Standard installation methods don’t always account for salt air exposure and temperature fluctuations near the water.
Your material choice depends on your budget, aesthetic preferences, and long-term plans for the home. We discuss all options during our initial consultation and explain how each performs in this specific environment.
Yes, roof installations in Suffolk County require building permits. We handle all permit applications and ensure work meets local building codes and manufacturer specifications.
The permit process includes plan review and inspections at specific stages of installation. This protects you by ensuring work meets safety standards and local requirements. It also ensures your installation qualifies for manufacturer warranties.
Some contractors skip permits to save time or money, but this creates problems when you sell your home or file insurance claims. We handle permits properly because it’s part of professional installation service.
Roof installation costs in Suffolk County typically range from $8,000 to $25,000 depending on size, materials, and complexity. Basic asphalt shingle installations start around $8,000 for smaller homes while larger homes with premium materials can reach $25,000 or more.
Several factors affect final cost including roof size, pitch, number of penetrations, existing damage that needs repair, and material choices. We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs so you understand exactly what you’re paying for.
Financing options are available for qualified homeowners. We discuss all costs upfront and never add surprise charges during installation. Our estimates include all materials, labor, permits, and cleanup.
Our roof installations include manufacturer warranties on materials plus our workmanship warranty covering installation quality. Material warranties typically range from 25-50 years depending on shingle grade and manufacturer.
Our workmanship warranty covers installation defects and ensures your roof performs as designed. This includes proper flashing installation, correct fastening patterns, and adequate ventilation. We stand behind our work because proper installation is critical for long-term performance.
Warranty coverage requires following manufacturer maintenance recommendations and using approved contractors for any future repairs. We provide documentation of all warranty terms and maintenance requirements when installation is complete.
We recommend complete tear-off for most roof installations rather than installing over existing materials. This allows proper inspection of roof decking and ensures optimal performance of your new roofing system.
Installing over existing shingles can hide problems like damaged decking, inadequate ventilation, or moisture issues. It also adds weight and can affect the performance of new materials. Building codes limit the number of shingle layers allowed on residential roofs.
Complete tear-off costs more initially but provides better long-term value. You get proper inspection of all roof components, correct installation of new materials, and full warranty coverage. We explain all options during our consultation and recommend the approach that best serves your specific situation.
