When your roof replacement is done, you’re not just getting new shingles. You’re getting real protection against Shirley’s 48 inches of annual rainfall and those brutal Long Island storms that test every home.
No more middle-of-the-night worries about leaks. No more buckets in the living room when the weather turns nasty. Just a solid roof that does its job so you can focus on everything else that matters.
Your home value goes up. Your stress goes down. And you get the kind of sleep that comes from knowing your biggest investment is actually protected.
We’ve been handling roof replacements across Suffolk County long enough to understand what works here and what doesn’t. We’ve seen what happens when contractors cut corners, and we’ve seen the difference quality materials and proper installation make.
Every roof replacement we do uses materials designed for Long Island’s unique climate challenges. We’re not trying to be the cheapest option because we know what cheap roofing costs you later.
When you work with us, you’re working with contractors who understand that your roof replacement isn’t just about today—it’s about the next 20 years of storms, snow loads, and everything else Mother Nature throws at Shirley homes.
First, we completely strip your existing roof down to the deck. This isn’t just about removing old shingles—we inspect every piece of decking and replace anything that’s damaged or rotted.
Next comes the protection system. We install leak barriers in the most vulnerable areas, proper deck protection, and ensure your ventilation system actually works. These aren’t extras—they’re essentials for a roof that lasts.
Finally, we install your new roofing system using quality materials designed for Suffolk County weather. Every step gets documented so you can see exactly what you’re getting. When we’re done, you’ll have a roof replacement that’s built to handle whatever Shirley’s weather brings.

Your roof replacement includes complete tear-off and disposal of old materials, deck inspection and repair, leak barrier installation in critical areas, proper ventilation systems, and professional-grade shingles with manufacturer warranties.
We handle all the details that matter in Shirley’s climate. That means proper flashing around chimneys and vents, adequate ventilation to prevent ice dams during those February snow dumps, and materials rated for the wind speeds we see during storm season.
You also get photo documentation of the work, cleanup that leaves your property better than we found it, and a team that shows up when we say we will. No surprises, no hidden costs, just the roof replacement you need done the way it should be done.
Roof replacement costs in Shirley typically range from $12,000 to $25,000 for most homes, depending on size, materials, and complexity. The biggest factor is usually the scope of work needed beyond just shingles.
If your decking needs repair or replacement, that adds to the cost. Same with upgrading ventilation systems or addressing structural issues we find during tear-off. We always inspect the deck thoroughly and let you know exactly what needs attention before we start.
The investment makes sense when you consider that a quality roof replacement protects your home for 20-30 years. Compare that to patching and repairing an old roof every few years, and the numbers work in your favor.
If your roof is over 20 years old and you’re dealing with multiple leaks, missing shingles, or granule loss, replacement usually makes more financial sense than ongoing repairs. One major indicator is when you start seeing daylight through the roof boards in your attic.
In Shirley’s climate, roofs take a beating from snow loads, ice dams, and summer storms. When the protective granules on asphalt shingles wear away, the underlying material starts breaking down quickly. At that point, you’re not just fixing problems—you’re chasing them.
We’ll give you an honest assessment of whether repair or replacement makes sense for your situation. Sometimes a few strategic repairs buy you time to plan for replacement. Other times, replacement is the only way to actually solve the problem.
Most residential roof replacements in Shirley take 2-4 days, depending on the size of your home and weather conditions. We start with complete tear-off, which usually takes most of the first day for an average-sized home.
Day two typically involves deck repairs, installing the protection systems, and starting the new roofing material. We finish installation and cleanup by day three or four, unless we run into structural issues that need addressing.
Weather can extend the timeline since we won’t install roofing materials in rain or high winds. We’ll cover your home with tarps if weather interrupts the project, but we prefer to work with clear forecasts to ensure quality installation.
Architectural asphalt shingles perform well in Shirley’s climate and offer the best value for most homeowners. They handle temperature swings, resist wind uplift, and come with strong manufacturer warranties when properly installed.
For homes that see heavy snow loads or have low-slope areas, we sometimes recommend upgraded materials or additional protection systems. Metal roofing is another option that handles ice and snow well, though the initial cost is higher.
The key isn’t just the shingles—it’s the complete system underneath. Proper deck protection, leak barriers, and ventilation matter more than the brand name on the shingles. We focus on building a roof system that works together to protect your Shirley home.
Yes, roof replacement in Shirley requires a building permit from the Town of Brookhaven. We handle the permit application process as part of our service, including submitting plans and ensuring the work meets local building codes.
The permit process typically takes 1-2 weeks, and inspections are required during installation. We coordinate with building inspectors to ensure everything passes inspection the first time, so there are no delays in completing your project.
Having proper permits protects you if you ever sell your home, and it ensures the work meets current building standards for wind resistance and structural requirements. It’s not optional, and any contractor who suggests skipping permits is someone you want to avoid.
Your roof replacement includes both material and workmanship warranties. Material warranties from manufacturers like GAF typically cover 25-50 years depending on the shingle grade you choose. Our workmanship warranty covers installation issues for 5-10 years.
The key is proper installation that qualifies for manufacturer warranties. Many material warranties are voided if installation doesn’t meet specific requirements. We’re certified installers who know these requirements and document our work accordingly.
We also provide photo documentation of your completed roof replacement, showing proper installation of all components. This documentation supports warranty claims if issues arise and gives you peace of mind about the quality of work.
