Hear from Our Customers
You get a roof that protects your Melville home for 20-25 years, not just something that looks good for the first few seasons. We install complete roofing systems using materials specifically chosen for Suffolk County’s climate challenges—from winter ice dams to summer heat and coastal humidity.
Your investment stays protected because we handle the details other contractors skip. Proper underlayment, quality flashing, adequate ventilation. The stuff you can’t see but makes the difference between a roof that lasts and one that fails early.
You also get straight talk throughout the process. We explain what we’re doing, why it matters, and what to expect next. No construction mysteries, no surprise costs, no wondering if corners are being cut.
SkyLuxe Construction represents decades of family craftsmanship in Suffolk County roofing. We’re not a national chain or fly-by-night operation—we’re your neighbors, with a reputation built one roof at a time in communities like Melville.
Every project gets personal oversight from our family. We understand Melville’s weather patterns, from nor’easters that test your roof’s wind resistance to summer storms that find every weak spot in poor installations.
We’re fully licensed and insured for Suffolk County work, with the local experience that comes from protecting homes in your neighborhood for years. When you choose SkyLuxe Construction, you’re working with contractors who live where we work.
We start with a thorough inspection and detailed written estimate. You’ll know exactly what you’re getting, what it costs, and why each component matters before we start work.
Next comes the careful prep work that protects your property and sets up success. We strip your old roof down to the decking, replacing any damaged wood we find. This foundation work is crucial—your new roof is only as strong as what’s underneath.
Then we install our complete roofing system layer by layer. Quality underlayment for ice dam protection, proper starter strips, premium shingles rated for Long Island weather, adequate ventilation, and finished ridge work. Every component works together for maximum protection and longevity.

Your roof installation includes everything needed for long-term performance in Melville’s challenging climate. We start with structural assessment and decking repair, ensuring your new roof has the solid foundation it needs.
Our installation process addresses Suffolk County’s specific weather challenges. Advanced ice and water barriers prevent the ice dam damage common in Long Island winters. Proper ventilation systems prevent the moisture buildup that leads to mold and premature failure.
You get premium materials designed for coastal environments—shingles that handle salt air, temperature swings, and the wind loads typical in our area. These aren’t builder-grade materials chosen to hit a price point. We install roofing systems engineered to protect your home and maintain their performance for decades.
Roof installation in Melville typically ranges from $8,000 to $18,000 for most residential homes, depending on size, materials, and complexity. Your roof’s square footage is the primary cost driver—larger roofs require more materials and labor.
Material choice significantly affects pricing. Standard architectural shingles offer good performance at moderate cost, while premium materials like impact-resistant or designer shingles cost more but provide superior protection and longer warranties.
Roof complexity matters too. Simple gable roofs install faster and cost less than complex designs with multiple levels, dormers, or steep slopes. If we discover structural issues during tear-off, necessary repairs will add to the total investment but are essential for long-term performance.
Most residential roof installations in Suffolk County take 2-4 days to complete, depending on your roof’s size and complexity. Weather conditions can extend the timeline—we won’t compromise quality by working in unsafe conditions.
We schedule installations during optimal weather windows, typically spring through fall when conditions favor quality work. Winter installations are possible but may require additional time due to shorter daylight hours and weather delays.
Before starting, we’ll provide a realistic timeline based on your specific roof and current forecast. We coordinate material delivery, crew scheduling, and cleanup to minimize disruption while ensuring thorough, unhurried installation.
Melville’s climate demands materials that handle temperature extremes, ice formation, and coastal humidity. We recommend high-performance architectural shingles specifically rated for Long Island’s weather conditions.
Quality architectural shingles outperform basic three-tab shingles in wind resistance and water protection. Their multi-layer construction and enhanced granule coatings provide better durability against UV exposure and thermal cycling common in our climate.
We also install advanced underlayment systems with superior ice and water protection. Synthetic underlayments outperform traditional felt in temperature extremes and provide better long-term protection against the moisture infiltration that damages Suffolk County roofs.
Yes, we obtain all necessary permits and coordinate required inspections for your roof installation project. We’re familiar with Melville and Suffolk County building requirements, so you don’t need to navigate the permitting process.
We handle permit applications before starting work and schedule inspections at appropriate project stages. This ensures your installation meets local building codes and maintains compliance for insurance and resale purposes.
Our experience with local building departments streamlines the approval process. We know exactly what documentation is required and how to get permits processed efficiently, saving you time and ensuring your project proceeds smoothly.
Your new roof installation includes comprehensive warranty protection covering both materials and installation workmanship. Manufacturer warranties on premium shingles typically provide 25-50 years of material coverage against defects.
Our workmanship warranty protects the installation itself. If issues arise due to installation errors, we return to correct them at no additional cost. We’ve been serving Suffolk County for decades and stand behind every roof we install.
We also provide guidance on warranty maintenance requirements and help you understand what’s covered. Proper maintenance helps ensure warranty validity and optimal roof performance throughout its expected lifespan.
Age is the primary factor—if your asphalt shingle roof is 18-25 years old, replacement usually makes more financial sense than ongoing repairs. Newer roofs with isolated damage often benefit from targeted repairs.
Extent of damage matters significantly. Multiple problem areas, recurring leaks, or widespread shingle deterioration typically indicate replacement needs. Sometimes roofs that look acceptable have underlying issues that make replacement the smarter choice.
We provide honest assessments during free inspections, showing you exactly what we find and explaining your options clearly. Sometimes a roof that appears to need replacement can be effectively repaired, while other seemingly minor issues actually indicate the need for complete replacement.
