Hear From Our Clients
You wake up knowing your roof can handle whatever Long Island throws at it. No more worrying about leaks during nor’easters or wondering if those missing shingles will cause problems.
Your energy bills drop because proper ventilation and quality materials work together. The house stays cooler in summer and warmer in winter.
Most importantly, you have peace of mind. When neighbors are dealing with storm damage and emergency repairs, you’re not. That’s what happens when your roof replacement is done right the first time.
We’ve been protecting Suffolk County homes since 2002. We’re the roofing company your Stony Brook University neighbors call when they need their roof fixed right.
We’ve seen what Long Island weather does to roofs. The salt air from the coast. The ice dams from winter storms. The UV damage from those brutal summer days.
That’s why we don’t just install shingles—we build complete roofing systems designed for our local climate. Licensed, insured, and local.
First, we strip your roof down to the wooden decking. Any damaged or rotted wood gets replaced—no shortcuts.
Then comes our seven-part weather system: roof deck protection, leak barriers, starter strip shingles, your new asphalt shingles, proper attic ventilation, ridge cap shingles, and vented soffit. Each layer has a job.
We clean up completely when we’re done. That means using magnets to pick up nails and hauling away all the old materials. Your property looks better than when we started.

Your new roof comes with impact-resistant asphalt shingles that can handle the hail and wind that hit Suffolk County. We’re talking about Class 4 impact resistance—the highest rating available.
The materials we use are designed for coastal conditions. Salt air won’t corrode the fasteners. UV rays won’t crack the shingles in two years. High winds won’t lift them off.
In Stony Brook University, you need roofing that can handle everything from winter ice dams to summer heat waves. That’s exactly what you get.
Most roof replacements in Stony Brook University take 2-3 days for an average-sized home, depending on weather and roof complexity. We start by stripping off all the old materials on day one.
Day two involves installing the new roofing system from decking repairs through final shingles. If your roof is larger or has multiple levels, it might extend to a third day.
Weather can affect the timeline—we won’t work in unsafe conditions. But we’ll have your roof watertight each evening so you’re never exposed to the elements.
Architectural asphalt shingles with algae resistance work best for Suffolk County’s coastal climate. The copper granules prevent those black streaks you see on many Long Island roofs.
Look for Class 4 impact resistance if you want the best protection against hail and wind damage. These shingles cost more upfront but can save you thousands in storm repairs.
We typically recommend 30-year architectural shingles for most Stony Brook University homes. They offer the right balance of durability, appearance, and cost for our local conditions.
Roof replacement in Stony Brook University typically ranges from $15,000 to $35,000 depending on your home’s size, pitch, and material choices. A standard 1,500 square foot ranch costs less than a 3,000 square foot colonial with steep slopes.
The breakdown is roughly 40% materials and 60% labor. Quality asphalt shingles run about $90-100 per square (100 square feet), but labor rates in Suffolk County are higher due to demand for skilled roofers.
Always budget an extra 10-15% for unexpected issues like rotted decking or ventilation upgrades that we discover during tear-off. Better to be prepared than surprised.
Yes, roof replacement in Suffolk County requires a building permit from your local town building department. We handle the permit application process for you as part of our service.
The permit ensures your new roof meets current building codes for wind resistance and fire safety. Suffolk County has specific requirements for coastal areas that we know well.
Inspection typically happens after installation is complete. The building inspector checks that everything was installed according to code before issuing final approval.
We monitor weather forecasts carefully and won’t start tear-off if rain is expected that day. If unexpected weather hits during work, we immediately tarp and secure your home.
Our crew carries heavy-duty tarps and knows how to quickly weatherproof a partially completed roof. We’ve been doing this for over 10 years in Suffolk County—we know how to handle weather surprises.
If rain delays the project, we’ll reschedule as soon as conditions are safe. Your home stays protected, and the work continues when weather permits.
If your roof is over 20 years old and you’re seeing multiple issues—missing shingles, granule loss, frequent leaks—replacement usually makes more sense than ongoing repairs. One major storm can reveal problems that make repair costs add up quickly.
Look for curling or cracked shingles, dark streaks, or daylight showing through your attic. These are signs the roof system is failing, not just individual shingles.
We provide honest assessments during our free estimates. Sometimes a few repairs will buy you several more years. Other times, replacement is the only smart financial choice.
