You wake up to water stains spreading across your bedroom ceiling. Again. Your neighbors are getting new roofs, and yours looks embarrassingly worn next to theirs. Every storm has you checking the attic with a flashlight, wondering what you’ll find this time.
Here’s what changes when we replace your roof. No more emergency buckets positioned around your living room during rainstorms. No more lying awake during nor’easters wondering if this will be the storm that finally caves in your ceiling. No more watching your energy bills climb because your 20-year-old roof can’t keep the heat where it belongs.
Your home becomes the one neighbors actually notice – in a good way. The one that looks solid, protected, ready for whatever Suffolk County throws at it. You sleep through storms instead of listening for new drips.
We’re not just another roofing company sending crews around Long Island. We’re a family legacy that’s been protecting Suffolk County homes for decades. When your Westhampton neighbors need their roofs done right the first time, they call us.
We know this area like the back of our hands. We know how Long Island storms test every single shingle. How the salt air works on metal flashings over time. How those brutal freeze-thaw cycles can crack what seemed rock-solid last spring.
Every job gets personal oversight because our family name goes on it. We combine old-school craftsmanship – the kind that built roofs to last 50 years – with modern materials and installation techniques. When we’re done, you get a roof built to handle everything from August heat waves to February ice storms.
First, we inspect everything – not just the obvious damage you can see from the ground. We check the decking underneath, the underlayment, the flashing around chimneys and vents. You get a complete picture of what actually needs fixing, not just what looks bad.
Next comes the full roof tear-off. We strip everything down to the wooden deck, haul away all the old materials in our trucks, and inspect the structure underneath. If we find rotted decking or other structural issues, we fix them right then. No nasty surprises three months later when something starts sagging.
Then we build your new roof from the bottom up. New underlayment, proper ventilation systems, quality shingles installed exactly to manufacturer specifications. We clean up completely each day – no nails in your driveway for your car tires to find. Final walk-through happens with you present so you can see exactly what you’re getting.

Your roof replacement includes complete tear-off and disposal of all old materials – we haul everything away in our trucks. We replace any damaged decking we find, install new underlayment and ice barrier protection, and use architectural shingles specifically designed to handle Long Island’s coastal climate. All flashing around chimneys, vents, and valleys gets replaced or upgraded.
In Westhampton, we see consistent patterns. Wind damage from coastal storms that strip shingles right off. Ice dam problems from those brutal winter storms that back water up under shingles. That’s why we pay extra attention to proper edge protection and attic ventilation systems that most contractors skip.
We handle all Suffolk County permits and required inspections. Our cleanup goes beyond what most contractors do – we use magnetic sweepers to grab every nail and metal scrap from your property. You get full manufacturer warranties on all materials plus our comprehensive workmanship guarantee that covers our installation.
Roof replacement costs in Westhampton typically run $8,000 to $25,000 for most homes, depending on size and material choices. A standard 2,000 square foot ranch or cape with quality architectural shingles averages $15,000-18,000 including complete tear-off, disposal, and new installation.
Your final cost depends on several factors: roof size and pitch, complexity of the roofline, materials you choose, and what we find when we tear off the old roof. Architectural shingles cost more upfront than basic three-tab but last significantly longer and handle our weather better.
We provide detailed written estimates that break down every cost – labor, materials, permits, disposal fees. No surprises, no change orders unless you specifically approve additional work. Most Westhampton homeowners find that investing in quality materials and proper installation saves substantial money over time compared to cheaper options that fail prematurely.
Replace your roof when it’s over 20 years old and showing multiple problems, when you’re regularly finding granules washing out of your gutters, or when you have widespread shingle damage across different areas. If you’re calling for roof repairs more than once a year, replacement almost always makes better financial sense.
Age matters, but overall condition matters more. A 15-year-old roof with multiple active leaks, missing shingles, and widespread curling needs replacement now. A well-maintained 25-year-old roof might have several good years left with strategic repairs.
Major storm damage often tips the decision toward full replacement. When insurance adjusters find damage affecting more than 30% of your roof surface, replacement becomes the smart choice. We work directly with insurance companies regularly and can help ensure you get the coverage you deserve.
Most residential roof replacements in Westhampton take 1-3 days depending on size and complexity. A typical ranch or cape gets completed in one full day with our experienced crew. Larger colonials or homes with multiple levels and complex rooflines typically take 2-3 days.
Long Island weather can extend timelines. We won’t work in high winds, heavy rain, or when roof surfaces become too slippery for safe work. Our crews’ safety comes first, and we’d rather delay a day than risk someone getting hurt.
The complete tear-off, installation, and cleanup all happen during the same period. We never leave your home exposed overnight unless absolutely unavoidable. If weather forces us to stop mid-project, we’ll properly tarp and secure everything until conditions improve and we can return to finish.
Architectural asphalt shingles perform best for most Long Island homes. They resist wind uplift significantly better than basic three-tab shingles and handle the freeze-thaw cycles we experience here. We recommend shingles rated for 110+ mph winds with built-in algae resistance for our coastal climate.
Metal roofing also works excellent, especially for homes closer to the water where salt air accelerates deterioration of other materials. Metal sheds snow and ice more effectively than shingles and typically lasts 40+ years, but requires higher upfront investment.
Avoid basic three-tab shingles in this area – they simply don’t handle our weather patterns well and often fail within 10-15 years. The small price difference between three-tab and architectural shingles isn’t worth the risk of premature failure. We typically recommend GAF Timberline or CertainTeed Landmark series for optimal performance and value.
Yes, we handle all required permits and coordinate inspections with Suffolk County building departments. Most residential roof replacements require permits, and we include all permit costs in our written estimates upfront. We maintain established relationships with local building departments and know exactly what’s required.
The typical process involves initial permit approval before we start work and a final inspection after completion. We schedule these inspections at the appropriate times and ensure everything meets current building codes. You don’t deal with any paperwork, phone calls, or scheduling hassles.
If inspectors identify any issues requiring correction, we handle those immediately at no additional cost provided they relate to our workmanship. We guarantee your new roof will pass all required inspections and meet or exceed all local building codes and manufacturer specifications.
You receive two distinct types of warranties with our roof replacement service. Manufacturer material warranties typically cover 25-50 years depending on the specific shingles you choose, protecting against manufacturing defects in the shingles themselves.
Our comprehensive workmanship warranty covers our installation for a minimum of 5 years. This protects against any problems resulting from installation errors – leaks from improper flashing installation, shingle blow-offs from inadequate fastening, or any other installation-related issues.
We also offer premium extended warranty programs through select manufacturers that provide up to 50 years of coverage on both materials and workmanship combined. These enhanced warranties require certified installation by qualified contractors like us who meet strict performance standards. We’ll explain all available warranty options during your consultation so you can choose what makes sense for your situation.
