Hear From Our Clients
You’re not just getting new shingles. You’re getting a roof that actually holds up when nor’easters roll through Suffolk County and temperatures swing from 23°F to 81°F in the same season.
Your home stays dry during heavy rain. Your heating bills don’t spike because warm air isn’t escaping through gaps. You stop worrying every time the forecast mentions wind or hail.
That’s what a proper roof replacement does. It removes the constant low-level stress of wondering if this storm will be the one that finally causes real damage. You get to stop checking the attic for water stains and start trusting that your roof is doing its job.
Most homeowners don’t realize their roof needs attention until water drips through the ceiling. By then, you’re dealing with damaged insulation, rotted framing, and repair bills that could’ve been avoided. A full roof replacement fixes the problem at the source and gives you decades of protection instead of temporary patches that fail within a few seasons.
Home Team Construction has spent over 10 years replacing roofs across Suffolk County. We’re not storm chasers who show up after a hurricane and disappear when problems arise. We’re the roofing company Hauppauge homeowners call when they need their roof fixed right the first time.
Our crews are licensed, insured, and trained to handle everything from complete tear-offs to storm damage repairs. We understand what Long Island weather does to roofs because we see it every day—salt air corrosion, wind-driven rain, ice dams, and the kind of coastal storms that test every weak point in your roof system.
You’ll get photo updates throughout the job. You’ll get clear estimates before we start. And you’ll get a roof that protects your home the way it’s supposed to—because our reputation in this community depends on it.
First, we inspect your roof to document every issue—missing shingles, damaged flashing, deteriorated underlayment, and any hidden problems that aren’t obvious from the ground. You get a detailed estimate that breaks down materials, labor, and timeline so there’s no confusion about what you’re paying for.
If you’re filing an insurance claim, we handle the documentation. We know what insurance companies require, and we work directly with adjusters to make sure damage is properly assessed and fairly compensated. Most claims get delayed or underpaid because homeowners don’t have the right photos or technical language—we take care of that.
Once the estimate is approved, we schedule the tear-off. Our crews remove old shingles, inspect the roof deck for rot or damage, and replace any compromised sections. Then we install new underlayment, flashing, drip edge, and shingles designed to withstand Suffolk County’s coastal conditions.
Throughout the job, you’ll get progress updates with photos. We protect your landscaping, clean up debris daily, and make sure the site is safe. When we’re done, you’ll have a roof that’s built to last—and documentation showing exactly what was installed and why it matters.

We handle complete roof replacements for homes, garages, and flat roof systems across Hauppauge and Suffolk County. That includes asphalt shingle roofs, flat roofs with EPDM or TPO membranes, and garage roof replacements that need to match your home’s existing materials.
Long Island’s coastal location creates unique challenges. Salt spray accelerates shingle deterioration. Wind-driven rain finds every gap in flashing. Ice dams form when attic insulation isn’t adequate. We account for all of it—proper ventilation, weather-resistant underlayment, and installation techniques that prevent the most common failure points.
You’re also getting a roof system, not just shingles. That means new flashing around chimneys and vents, drip edge to prevent water from backing up under shingles, and underlayment that acts as a secondary barrier if wind ever lifts a shingle. Most roof failures happen at these transition points, not in the middle of a shingle field—so we make sure they’re done right.
If you need gutters, siding, or chimney work done at the same time, we handle that too. One contractor means better coordination, fewer scheduling headaches, and a finished job where everything works together instead of being pieced together by different crews who never talk to each other.
Most roof replacements in Suffolk County run between $8,000 and $18,000 depending on roof size, pitch, and material choice. A standard asphalt shingle roof costs around $5 to $9 per square foot installed, while metal roofing runs $10 to $16 per square foot.
The final price depends on factors like how many layers of old shingles need removal, whether the roof deck has rot or damage that needs repair, and how complex your roof is. More valleys, dormers, and chimneys mean more labor and materials.
We give you a detailed estimate upfront that breaks down every cost—materials, labor, disposal, and any repairs needed to the roof deck or flashing. No surprises, no vague line items. You’ll know exactly what you’re paying for before we start.
Most residential roof replacements take two to four days depending on roof size and weather. We start with the tear-off, which usually takes a full day. Then we inspect the roof deck, make any necessary repairs, and install new underlayment and shingles over the next one to three days.
Weather can extend the timeline—we don’t install shingles in rain or high wind because it compromises the seal and creates future leak points. If a storm delays the job, we make sure your roof is protected with tarps until conditions improve.
You’ll get a projected timeline in your estimate, and we’ll update you if anything changes. We also coordinate around your schedule so you’re not surprised by crews showing up unannounced or working late into the evening without notice.
It depends on what caused the damage. Insurance typically covers roof replacement if the damage resulted from a covered event like a storm, hail, or falling tree. Normal wear and tear usually isn’t covered—but storm damage often is, even if you didn’t realize the storm caused problems.
Many homeowners don’t file claims because they assume minor damage won’t be covered. But wind can lift shingles without you noticing, and hail can cause bruising that leads to leaks months later. We document everything during the inspection so you have the evidence needed to file a claim.
We work directly with insurance adjusters to make sure damage is properly assessed. Insurance companies often try to minimize payouts by downplaying damage extent or claiming it’s pre-existing. We provide detailed reports with photos and technical explanations that support your claim and help you get fair compensation.
Asphalt shingles are the most common choice for Long Island homes because they handle coastal weather well and offer good value. Architectural shingles hold up better than three-tab shingles in high wind and last 25 to 30 years with proper installation and ventilation.
Metal roofing is another solid option if you want maximum durability. It costs more upfront but lasts 40 to 50 years, resists wind and salt air better than asphalt, and requires almost no maintenance. It’s especially good for flat or low-slope roofs where water drainage is critical.
For flat roofs on garages or home additions, EPDM rubber or TPO membranes work best. They’re designed for low-slope applications where shingles don’t perform well. Both materials resist UV damage and temperature swings, which matters when you’re dealing with Long Island’s summer heat and winter freeze-thaw cycles.
If your roof is over 20 years old and showing multiple problem areas—curling shingles, missing granules, leaks in different spots—replacement usually makes more sense than repairs. Patching one section doesn’t fix underlying issues with aging underlayment or deteriorated flashing.
Storm damage is another indicator. If a nor’easter or hailstorm damaged large sections of your roof, replacing the whole thing ensures everything is uniform and properly sealed. Mixing old and new materials often creates weak points where leaks develop.
We’ll inspect your roof and give you an honest assessment. If repairs will buy you another five years, we’ll tell you. If you’re throwing money at a roof that’s going to fail anyway, we’ll tell you that too. The goal is to help you make the right decision based on your roof’s actual condition—not to upsell you on work you don’t need.
Yes. Storm damage doesn’t wait for business hours, and neither do we. If a tree falls on your roof or wind rips off shingles during a nor’easter, we’ll get someone out to assess the damage and tarp the affected area to prevent further water intrusion.
Emergency repairs are about stopping immediate damage—getting your home protected so rain doesn’t pour into your attic and ruin insulation, drywall, and belongings. Once the roof is secure, we document everything for your insurance claim and provide a detailed estimate for permanent repairs or full replacement.
We’ve been handling storm damage across Suffolk County for over 10 years. We know how to work with insurance companies, and we know how to prioritize jobs so homeowners with the most urgent needs get help first. You’re not waiting weeks for a callback while water keeps dripping through your ceiling.
