Hear From Our Clients
No more buckets catching drips during storms. No more sky-high energy bills from poor insulation. No more embarrassment when neighbors walk by your weathered, patched-up roof.
Instead, you get solid protection overhead that handles whatever Long Island throws at it. Your heating and cooling costs drop because your home actually holds temperature properly. Your property value goes up, and you stop dreading the next weather forecast.
That’s what happens when your roof replacement is done right the first time. You get back to living your life instead of managing roof problems.
We’ve been protecting Babylon homes for years, and we understand what works here. Long Island weather is tough on roofs – those humid summers dry out shingles, and winter storms with 50mph winds test every installation.
We’ve seen what happens when roof replacement is done cheap or fast. That’s why we use quality materials from manufacturers like Owens Corning and GAF, and we install them properly for Long Island conditions.
You’re not getting a crew that learned roofing somewhere else and moved here. You’re working with contractors who know Babylon building codes, understand local weather patterns, and have relationships with suppliers who stock the right materials for this climate.
First, we come out and actually look at your roof – not just from the ground. We inspect the decking, check for proper ventilation, and identify any structural issues that need addressing before new materials go on.
Next, we walk you through material options that make sense for your home and budget. No pressure, just clear information about what each choice means for durability, appearance, and cost.
When we start work, we protect your property with tarps and barriers. We do complete tear-off when needed – no shortcuts that cause problems later. Our crew installs proper underlayment, ice and water shield, and ventilation before any shingles go on. We clean up daily and do a final walkthrough with you when finished.
You get a roof that’s built to last, installed by people who take pride in their work.

Your roof replacement includes complete tear-off of old materials, inspection and repair of decking as needed, and installation of new underlayment designed for Long Island’s weather conditions. We install proper ice and water shield along eaves and valleys – critical for preventing the ice damming that’s common here.
You get quality shingles or metal roofing installed according to manufacturer specifications, proper ridge ventilation to prevent moisture buildup, and new flashing around chimneys, vents, and other penetrations. All gutters are cleaned and checked, and we handle permits and inspections required by Babylon building codes.
In Babylon’s coastal environment, your roof faces salt air, high winds, and temperature swings that stress roofing materials. That’s why we don’t cut corners on installation details that matter for long-term performance. You get a roof system designed to handle what this area dishes out.
Roof replacement costs in Babylon typically range from $8,000 to $25,000 depending on your home size, materials chosen, and complexity of the job. A standard asphalt shingle roof replacement on a 1,500 square foot home usually runs $12,000 to $18,000 including tear-off and disposal.
Metal roofing costs more upfront – usually $15,000 to $30,000 for the same size home – but lasts longer and handles Long Island weather better. The final cost depends on factors like roof pitch, number of chimneys and skylights, and whether decking needs repair.
We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs so you know exactly what you’re paying for. No surprises, no hidden fees.
Most residential roof replacements in Babylon take 2-4 days depending on size and weather conditions. A typical ranch home can often be completed in 2 days, while larger two-story homes or complex rooflines may take 3-4 days.
Weather plays a big role in timing since we won’t install materials in rain or high winds. Long Island’s unpredictable weather means we sometimes need to pause work for safety, but we protect your home with tarps when necessary.
We start early and work efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily routine. Most of the noise happens during tear-off on the first day – after that, installation is much quieter.
Architectural asphalt shingles are the most popular choice in Babylon because they handle our climate well and offer good value. Brands like Owens Corning Duration and GAF Timberline perform well in high winds and temperature swings.
Metal roofing is becoming more common here because it’s extremely durable in coastal conditions and reflects heat to reduce cooling costs. Standing seam metal roofs can last 40+ years and handle hurricane-force winds better than any other material.
For flat or low-slope areas, modified bitumen or EPDM rubber systems work well. The key is proper installation with adequate underlayment and ice barriers – materials matter, but installation quality matters more in Long Island’s challenging climate.
Yes, Babylon requires building permits for roof replacement projects. The permit process typically takes 1-2 weeks and costs around $150-300 depending on your home’s value and project scope.
We handle the permit application process for you, including submitting plans and scheduling required inspections. Babylon building codes require specific installation standards for wind resistance and energy efficiency that we follow on every job.
Working without permits can cause problems when you sell your home or file insurance claims. We make sure everything is done legally and up to code so you never have issues down the road.
You likely need full roof replacement if your shingles are over 20 years old, you have multiple leaks, or granules are washing off into gutters regularly. Curling, cracked, or missing shingles across large areas indicate the roof system is failing.
Interior signs include water stains on ceilings, visible daylight through roof boards in the attic, or sagging sections. If your energy bills have increased significantly, poor roof insulation might be the cause.
We provide honest assessments – sometimes repairs are sufficient, but when multiple problems exist, replacement is more cost-effective than ongoing patch jobs. A thorough inspection tells you exactly where you stand.
We provide comprehensive warranties covering both materials and workmanship. Material warranties come directly from manufacturers like Owens Corning or GAF and typically last 25-50 years depending on the product chosen.
Our workmanship warranty covers installation for 10 years, ensuring that if any problems develop due to installation issues, we fix them at no cost. This includes proper flashing, ventilation, and underlayment installation.
We also help you register manufacturer warranties properly and provide all documentation you need for insurance or future home sales. Good warranties only matter if the company stands behind them – we’ve been serving Babylon homeowners for years and plan to be here for many more.
