You’ll never worry about leaks again. Your new roof handles everything Suffolk County weather throws at it—heavy snow, ice dams, driving rain, and summer heat. No more buckets in the attic or ceiling stains spreading across your living room.
Energy bills drop because your home stays comfortable year-round. The constant stress of wondering “will my roof hold up” disappears completely. You get decades of protection, not just a temporary fix.
Your home value increases, and you’ll have the confidence that comes with knowing your biggest investment is properly protected by materials designed specifically for Long Island’s climate extremes.
We’ve been protecting Suffolk County homes for years, and we understand exactly what your roof faces here. The harsh winters, the summer storms, the constant freeze-thaw cycles that destroy inferior work.
We’re a family-owned business that treats every project like it’s our own home. Licensed, insured, and committed to doing things right the first time. When we say we’ll be there, we show up. When we give you a price, that’s what you pay.
Our team knows Suffolk County building codes, weather patterns, and the specific challenges that Stony Brook University area homes face. We’re not just contractors—we’re your neighbors who happen to be really good at protecting roofs.
We start with a thorough inspection to identify every issue, not just the obvious ones. You get a detailed explanation of what we found and a transparent quote before any work begins. No pressure, no surprises.
On installation day, we protect your landscaping and property, then strip everything down to the decking. Any damaged wood gets replaced. We install a seven-part weather system including roof deck protection, leak barriers, starter strips, premium shingles, proper ventilation, ridge caps, and vented soffits.
Every step is designed for Suffolk County’s weather extremes. We clean up completely when finished and test everything to make sure it’s working properly. You get a detailed walkthrough of your new roof and maintenance tips to keep it performing for decades.

Your roof replacement includes complete tear-off and disposal of old materials, damaged decking replacement, premium underlayment, high-grade shingles rated for Long Island weather, proper ventilation systems, and thorough cleanup. We handle permits and inspections.
In Stony Brook University, homes face unique challenges from the university area’s microclimate and the North Shore’s weather patterns. Heavy snow loads require proper structural support. Salt air from Long Island Sound demands corrosion-resistant materials. We specify everything based on your specific location and home requirements.
You also get our guarantee on workmanship, manufacturer warranties on materials, and detailed documentation of your new roof system. We coordinate with insurance companies when storm damage is involved and provide all the paperwork you need for claims or future reference.
Roof replacement costs in the Stony Brook University area typically range from $8,000 to $25,000, depending on your home’s size, roof complexity, and material choices. A standard 1,500 square foot home with architectural shingles usually falls between $12,000 and $18,000.
Several factors affect your final cost: the number of layers we need to remove, any structural repairs required, the pitch and complexity of your roofline, and the specific materials you choose. Premium materials like metal or designer shingles cost more upfront but often provide better long-term value.
We provide detailed written estimates that break down every cost, so you know exactly what you’re paying for. No hidden fees, no surprise charges after we start work. Most homeowners find the investment pays for itself through increased home value, lower energy bills, and decades of worry-free protection.
Replace your roof when it’s over 20 years old, has multiple problem areas, or when repair costs exceed 30% of replacement cost. If you’re dealing with recurring leaks, missing shingles after every storm, or visible sagging, replacement is usually the smart choice.
In Suffolk County’s harsh climate, roofs typically need replacement every 20-25 years, sometimes sooner if they weren’t installed properly or used inferior materials. Signs that repair won’t cut it include granule loss covering your gutters, daylight visible through the roof decking, or multiple leaks in different areas.
The key question is whether you want to keep throwing money at temporary fixes or invest in decades of protection. We’ll give you an honest assessment of whether your roof can be repaired effectively or if replacement is the better long-term solution for your situation and budget.
Most residential roof replacements in Stony Brook University take 1-3 days, depending on your home’s size, roof complexity, and weather conditions. A typical single-family home is usually completed in 2 days—one day for tear-off and decking repairs, one day for installation.
Weather is the biggest variable in Suffolk County. We don’t work in dangerous conditions, so storms or high winds might delay the project. However, we monitor forecasts carefully and schedule work during stable weather windows to minimize delays.
Complex roofs with multiple dormers, skylights, or steep pitches take longer. We’ll give you a realistic timeline during your estimate and keep you updated if anything changes. The goal is doing the job right, not rushing to meet an arbitrary deadline that compromises quality.
Architectural asphalt shingles are the most popular choice for Stony Brook University homes because they handle our climate extremes well and offer good value. We typically recommend GAF Timberline or similar premium shingles with impact resistance and algae protection.
Metal roofing performs exceptionally well in Suffolk County, especially for homes near the water where salt air is a concern. It sheds snow effectively, resists wind damage, and lasts 40+ years. The higher upfront cost often pays off through longevity and energy savings.
For homes in heavily wooded areas prone to debris damage, we might recommend impact-resistant shingles rated for hail and falling branches. The key is matching the material to your specific location, home style, and budget while ensuring everything is designed to handle Long Island’s weather patterns.
Yes, we work directly with insurance companies and can help navigate the entire claims process. We document storm damage thoroughly, provide detailed repair estimates, and communicate directly with adjusters to ensure you get fair coverage for necessary work.
After major storms in Suffolk County, we inspect roofs for damage that might not be immediately obvious—like loosened shingles, damaged flashing, or compromised underlayment. Insurance companies often miss these issues during initial assessments, but they’re crucial for proper repairs.
We handle all the paperwork, coordinate with adjusters for inspections, and ensure repairs meet both insurance requirements and our quality standards. Our goal is making the process as smooth as possible while ensuring your roof is properly restored to protect your home long-term.
We’re a family-owned Suffolk County business that specializes in exterior home improvements, so roofing is our core expertise, not a side service. We understand local weather challenges, building codes, and the specific needs of homes in the Stony Brook University area.
Our approach is straightforward: thorough inspections, transparent pricing, quality materials, and professional installation with no shortcuts. We’re licensed and insured, we show up when promised, and we stand behind our work with solid guarantees.
