You’re not just getting a new roof—you’re investing in decades of protection for your home. When your roof replacement is complete, you’ll have a weatherproof barrier that stands up to Suffolk County’s harsh winters and humid summers without the constant worry of leaks or structural damage.
Your energy bills drop because modern materials and proper installation create better insulation. No more drafts, no more ice dams, no more emergency calls during storms. Just reliable protection that lets you focus on what matters most—your family and your life inside your home.
The value of your Wheatley Heights property increases immediately. Potential buyers see a well-maintained home that won’t require major repairs, and you see the return on investment every month through lower utility costs and zero repair bills.
We’ve been handling roof replacements in Suffolk County since before many of our competitors even existed. We’re not a national chain or a fly-by-night operation—we’re a local family business that’s watched Wheatley Heights grow and change over the decades.
Our team knows exactly how Long Island weather affects your roof. We’ve seen what happens when contractors cut corners or use substandard materials, and we’ve built our reputation by doing the opposite. Every roof replacement we complete comes with the kind of warranty and workmanship that only comes from contractors who plan to be here for the next thirty years.
You’ll work directly with licensed professionals who live and work in Suffolk County. We understand local building codes, permit requirements, and the specific challenges that come with coastal weather patterns and seasonal temperature swings.
Your roof replacement starts with a thorough inspection and detailed estimate—no surprises, no hidden costs. We measure every square foot, assess your current decking, and explain exactly what needs to be done and why.
The tear-off happens quickly and efficiently. We protect your landscaping, remove every old shingle and nail, and dispose of all materials responsibly. If we find any decking issues during removal, we’ll address them immediately with your approval.
Installation follows manufacturer specifications to the letter. New underlayment, proper flashing around chimneys and vents, and quality shingles installed by certified professionals. We clean up completely each day and perform a final inspection with you before considering the job complete.

Your roof replacement includes complete tear-off, new underlayment, ice and water shield, proper ventilation, and quality shingles with manufacturer warranties. We handle permits, inspections, and all disposal—you don’t need to coordinate anything.
Wheatley Heights homes often require special attention around chimneys and complex rooflines. Our team has experience with the architectural styles common in your neighborhood, from colonial splits to contemporary designs. We know how to properly flash dormers, valleys, and the challenging intersections that cause problems when not done right.
Weather delays happen, especially during Long Island’s unpredictable spring and fall seasons. We monitor forecasts carefully and only work in safe conditions, which means your roof replacement might take an extra day but will be done properly. Quality installation requires dry conditions—we won’t compromise your investment to meet an arbitrary deadline.
Roof replacement costs in Suffolk County typically range from $5,000 to $31,000 depending on your home’s size, roof complexity, and material choices. A standard 1,500 square foot asphalt roof replacement runs about $10,500 to $15,000 including tear-off, disposal, and installation.
The wide price range reflects real differences in quality and scope. A basic three-tab shingle job costs less than architectural shingles with upgraded underlayment and enhanced warranties. Steep roofs, multiple levels, and features like skylights or chimneys add to the complexity and cost.
We provide detailed written estimates that break down every cost—materials, labor, permits, and disposal. No surprises, no change orders unless you discover underlying damage that needs attention. Most Wheatley Heights homeowners find that investing in quality materials and professional installation saves money long-term through better durability and warranty coverage.
If your roof is over 20 years old and you’re facing multiple repair issues, replacement usually makes more financial sense than continued patching. Curling shingles, granule loss, and frequent leaks are clear indicators that your roof has reached the end of its useful life.
Storm damage often reveals underlying problems that make replacement the smart choice. When insurance adjusters find extensive damage or when repairs would cost more than 50% of replacement value, full replacement protects your investment better than temporary fixes.
Consider replacement when you’re planning to stay in your Wheatley Heights home for more than five years. New roofs add significant resale value and eliminate the ongoing stress and expense of emergency repairs. The peace of mind alone often justifies the investment, especially when you factor in potential water damage from a failing roof.
Architectural asphalt shingles perform exceptionally well in Suffolk County’s climate and offer the best combination of durability, cost, and appearance for most homeowners. They handle temperature swings, resist wind uplift, and come with warranties up to 30 years when properly installed.
Metal roofing is gaining popularity for its longevity—up to 50 years—and energy efficiency. It reflects heat in summer and sheds snow effectively in winter. The higher upfront cost often pays for itself through energy savings and minimal maintenance requirements over decades.
Avoid basic three-tab shingles in coastal areas like Wheatley Heights. They don’t handle wind and weather as well as architectural grades. Whatever material you choose, proper installation with quality underlayment and ice dam protection matters more than the shingle brand. Suffolk County’s weather demands professional-grade installation techniques.
Most residential roof replacements in Wheatley Heights take 2-4 days depending on size, complexity, and weather conditions. A straightforward ranch or colonial typically takes 2-3 days, while multi-level homes with complex rooflines may require 4-5 days.
Weather delays are common during Long Island’s spring and fall seasons. We won’t work in rain, high winds, or when conditions aren’t safe for quality installation. This might extend your timeline by a day or two, but it ensures proper installation and worker safety.
The process moves quickly once we start. Day one involves tear-off and inspection of decking. Day two covers new underlayment and beginning shingle installation. Final days complete installation, flashing, cleanup, and inspection. We protect your home throughout the process and clean up completely each evening, so you’re never left with an exposed roof overnight.
Yes, we handle all permit applications and coordinate required inspections with Suffolk County building departments. Roof replacement permits are required in most Long Island municipalities, and we’re familiar with local requirements and processing times.
Permit costs vary by municipality but typically range from $100-$300 for residential roof replacement. We include permit fees in our estimates so there are no surprise costs. Processing usually takes 3-5 business days, which we factor into your project timeline.
Building inspections ensure your roof replacement meets local codes and manufacturer specifications. We schedule inspections at appropriate stages and address any inspector concerns immediately. Our experience with local building departments helps avoid delays and ensures your project passes inspection on the first visit. All permits and inspections become part of your home’s permanent record, which helps with insurance claims and resale value.
You receive two separate warranties with every roof replacement—manufacturer material warranties and our workmanship warranty. Material warranties typically range from 25-50 years depending on shingle grade, while our labor warranty covers installation for 5-10 years.
Manufacturer warranties cover defects in materials but require proper installation by certified contractors to remain valid. We maintain certifications with major manufacturers like GAF and Owens Corning, which qualifies your roof for enhanced warranty coverage including wind resistance and algae protection.
Our workmanship warranty covers installation-related issues including leaks, flashing problems, or installation defects. We stand behind our work because we plan to be serving Suffolk County for decades to come. Warranty service is handled directly by our team—no third-party administrators or complicated claim processes. If there’s ever an issue, one phone call gets it resolved quickly and professionally.
