Hear from Our Customers
You wake up on stormy mornings without checking the ceiling for leaks. Your energy bills stay predictable because your roof actually insulates your home properly. When neighbors ask about your roof three years later, you’re still proud to recommend your contractor.
That’s what happens when roof installation is done right from the start. No callbacks for loose shingles after the first windstorm. No discovering shortcuts when the next contractor opens things up. Just a roof that works exactly like it should, protecting your Middle Island home through everything Suffolk County weather throws at it.
Your biggest investment deserves more than the cheapest bid. It deserves craftsmanship that lasts.
We’ve been installing roofs across Suffolk County since before most of our competitors existed. We’ve seen what works and what fails when Long Island weather gets serious.
We’re not the biggest roofing company, and we’re not trying to be. We’re the family business that shows up when we say we will, uses the materials we promised, and stands behind our work long after the last shingle goes on. Three generations of Suffolk County homeowners have trusted us with their most important investment.
Middle Island homeowners choose us because we understand what your roof faces here. Coastal storms that come out of nowhere. Ice that forms in places other contractors don’t think to protect. Summer heat that tests every seal and fastener.
First, we remove your old roof completely. No shortcuts, no layovers that create problems later. Every piece of old material comes off so we can see exactly what we’re working with underneath.
Next comes the foundation work most homeowners never see but always feel. We inspect and replace any damaged decking, install proper underlayment, and ensure your ventilation system will actually work. This is where cheap contractors cut corners and where quality contractors earn their reputation.
Then we install your new roofing system using materials designed for Suffolk County’s climate. Every shingle gets fastened according to manufacturer specifications, not industry minimums. Every flashing detail gets sealed properly the first time.
Finally, we clean up completely and walk you through what we’ve done. You’ll know exactly what you’re getting and how to maintain it.
Ready to get started?
Your roof installation includes complete tear-off of existing materials, structural inspection and repairs as needed, and installation of premium underlayment designed for Long Island’s weather patterns. We install GAF Timberline shingles with advanced DuraGrip adhesive seals that hold in winds up to 130 mph.
Every Middle Island installation includes proper ventilation systems that most contractors skip. Suffolk County’s humidity and temperature swings demand ventilation that actually works, not just meets minimum code. We install ridge vents, soffit vents, and ensure proper airflow that extends your roof’s life and improves your home’s energy efficiency.
Your installation also includes comprehensive flashing around chimneys, skylights, and roof penetrations. We use step flashing and ice-and-water shield in critical areas where most roof leaks start. These details cost more upfront but save thousands in repairs later.
All work comes with our comprehensive warranty plus manufacturer warranties on materials. You’re protected by both our craftsmanship guarantee and GAF’s material coverage.
Most residential roof installations in Middle Island take 2-4 days, depending on your home’s size and complexity. Weather can extend this timeline, especially during Suffolk County’s unpredictable spring and fall seasons.
We start each morning by checking weather conditions and won’t begin work if rain or high winds are forecast. Your home stays protected throughout the process with tarps and temporary coverings as needed. We’ve learned that rushing to beat weather usually creates more problems than delays do.
Complex roofs with multiple levels, chimneys, or skylights may take longer. We’ll give you a realistic timeline during our estimate and keep you updated if conditions change.
GAF Timberline HD and Ultra HD shingles perform exceptionally well in Suffolk County’s climate. These architectural shingles resist the wind uplift that’s common during coastal storms and handle the freeze-thaw cycles that damage lesser materials.
For homeowners wanting maximum durability, metal roofing systems last 50+ years and handle everything from hurricane winds to ice dams. The upfront cost is higher, but the long-term value often makes sense for permanent residents.
We don’t recommend three-tab shingles for Middle Island homes. They’re cheaper initially, but Suffolk County’s weather conditions typically cause premature failure. The money you save upfront gets spent on repairs and early replacement.
Roof installation costs in Middle Island typically range from $12,000 to $25,000 for most homes, depending on size, materials, and complexity. This includes complete tear-off, proper underlayment, quality shingles, and comprehensive flashing work.
Prices vary significantly based on your roof’s size, pitch, and the number of penetrations like chimneys and skylights. A simple ranch house costs less than a colonial with multiple levels and architectural features. We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
Financing options are available for qualified homeowners. Many of our Middle Island customers find that monthly payments are less than the energy savings from a properly installed roof system.
Yes, we handle all permit applications and inspections required for roof installation in Middle Island and throughout Suffolk County. Building permits are required for most roof replacements, and we’re familiar with local requirements and inspection processes.
We submit permit applications with detailed plans and material specifications. Our relationships with local building departments help ensure smooth approvals and scheduling. You don’t need to visit any offices or deal with paperwork.
All work is performed to current building codes and manufacturer specifications. We schedule required inspections and address any inspector concerns immediately. Your project isn’t complete until all inspections pass and permits are closed.
We provide a comprehensive workmanship warranty on all roof installation work, covering labor and installation for multiple years. This warranty covers any issues related to our installation, from loose shingles to flashing leaks.
Your new roof also includes manufacturer warranties on all materials. GAF shingles come with limited lifetime warranties, and other components have warranties ranging from 10-50 years depending on the product. We help you register all warranties and handle any warranty claims that arise.
Our warranty covers both materials and labor, which many contractors don’t offer. If a problem develops that’s related to our installation, we fix it at no charge. This includes any damage caused by installation defects, not just the defective work itself.
We always recommend complete tear-off for roof installations in Middle Island. While building codes may allow layovers in some situations, Suffolk County’s weather conditions make complete removal the better choice for long-term performance.
Layover installations hide existing problems like damaged decking, inadequate ventilation, or failed flashing. These issues don’t disappear under new shingles—they get worse. When problems eventually surface, repairs are more expensive and complicated.
Complete tear-off also allows proper installation of modern underlayment and ice-and-water shield that protect against the ice dams and wind-driven rain common in our area. The small additional cost of tear-off pays for itself through better performance and longer roof life.
