When your roof is done right, you stop worrying about the next storm. You stop checking the ceiling after every heavy rain. You stop wondering if this is the year you’ll need emergency repairs.
That’s what happens when you work with roofers who actually understand Hampton Bays weather. We know what coastal winds do to flashing. We know how salt air affects materials over time. We know which products hold up and which ones fail after three years.
Your roof becomes the thing you don’t think about anymore—because it’s working exactly like it should.
Home Team Construction has been protecting Hampton Bays homes for years, and we’ve seen what works and what doesn’t in this coastal environment. We’re the team that gets called when other roofers’ work fails after the first nor’easter.
We’re licensed, experienced, and we use the materials that actually hold up here. Not the cheapest options. Not the flashiest marketing claims. The ones that work when Hurricane Sandy-level weather hits your neighborhood.
Every job gets the same approach: thorough inspection, honest assessment, quality materials, and installation that meets the standards we’d want on our own homes.
We start with a complete inspection—not just the obvious problem areas, but everything that could cause issues down the line. We check flashing, ventilation, gutters, and the condition of your decking. You get a clear explanation of what we find and what needs attention.
During installation, we protect your property and work efficiently to minimize disruption. We use proven materials designed for coastal conditions and install them according to manufacturer specifications—not shortcuts that save time but cost you later.
When we’re finished, you get documentation of the work completed, warranty information, and a roof that’s ready for whatever Hampton Bays weather brings next.

Your Hampton Bays home faces unique challenges that inland properties don’t deal with. Salt air, storm surges, high winds, and rapid weather changes all take their toll on roofing systems. We address all of these factors.
Our roofing services include emergency storm damage repairs, complete roof replacements, and preventive maintenance designed specifically for coastal conditions. We work with impact-resistant materials, proper ventilation systems, and flashing techniques that hold up against driving rain and wind.
We also handle the related systems that keep your roof working properly—gutters that channel water away from your foundation, proper attic ventilation that prevents ice dams and moisture problems, and chimney work that prevents leaks around one of the most common failure points.
Most standard asphalt shingle roofs in Hampton Bays last 15-20 years, but coastal conditions can shorten that lifespan if the wrong materials or installation methods are used. Salt air, high winds, and storm exposure are harder on roofing materials than inland conditions.
The key is using materials specifically rated for coastal applications and ensuring proper installation. Impact-resistant shingles, corrosion-resistant flashing, and adequate ventilation can extend your roof’s life significantly. We’ve seen properly installed roofs with quality materials last 25+ years even in Hampton Bays’ challenging environment.
Metal roofing is an excellent option for coastal areas, often lasting 40-50 years with minimal maintenance. The initial investment is higher, but the long-term value and storm resistance make it worth considering for many Hampton Bays homeowners.
First, ensure everyone’s safety—don’t go on the roof yourself, especially if there’s visible damage. If water is entering your home, place buckets to catch drips and move valuables away from affected areas.
Call a professional roofer immediately for emergency tarping if there are holes or missing shingles. This prevents further water damage while permanent repairs are planned. Document everything with photos for insurance purposes, but do this from ground level or through windows.
Don’t wait to address storm damage. What starts as a small leak can quickly become major structural damage, mold problems, or electrical hazards. Emergency tarping and board-up services can prevent thousands of dollars in additional damage while you arrange for proper repairs.
Age is a major factor—if your roof is over 20 years old and showing multiple problem areas, replacement usually makes more sense than ongoing repairs. Look for curling or missing shingles, granule loss in gutters, and multiple leak points.
From inside your home, check for daylight coming through the roof boards, water stains on ceilings or walls, and sagging areas. These indicate structural issues that typically require replacement rather than patching.
A professional inspection can give you the complete picture. We’ll assess the roof deck condition, check for proper ventilation, and evaluate whether the existing system can be repaired cost-effectively. Sometimes what looks like a major problem can be fixed with targeted repairs, while other times seemingly minor issues indicate the need for complete replacement.
Impact-resistant asphalt shingles are the most popular choice for Hampton Bays homes. They’re designed to withstand hail damage and high winds while offering good value. Look for shingles rated for 130+ mph winds—standard shingles often fail in coastal storms.
Metal roofing is excellent for coastal areas because it resists salt air corrosion, reflects heat to reduce cooling costs, and handles wind extremely well. Standing seam metal roofs can withstand hurricane-force winds and last decades with minimal maintenance.
Synthetic materials are gaining popularity because they combine durability with traditional appearance. They resist moisture, don’t rot like wood, and maintain their appearance better than standard materials in harsh coastal conditions. Whatever material you choose, proper installation with coastal-rated underlayment and flashing is crucial for long-term performance.
Roof replacement costs in Hampton Bays typically range from $15,000 to $35,000 for most homes, depending on size, materials, and complexity. Coastal-rated materials and proper installation techniques cost more upfront but save money long-term through better durability and fewer repairs.
Factors affecting cost include roof size and pitch, material choice, need for decking repairs, and accessibility. Complex rooflines with multiple angles, chimneys, and skylights require more labor and materials. Emergency work or storm damage repairs may cost more due to urgent timing and potential structural issues.
Get detailed written estimates that specify materials, labor, and warranty coverage. The lowest bid often means corners will be cut on materials or installation quality. In Hampton Bays’ challenging environment, paying for proper materials and installation is an investment in avoiding future problems and protecting your home’s value.
Yes, we work with insurance companies regularly and understand the claims process for storm damage. We provide detailed documentation of damage, including photos and written assessments that insurance adjusters need to process claims effectively.
Our experience helps homeowners navigate the sometimes complex insurance requirements. We know what insurance companies look for in damage assessments and can provide the proper documentation to support your claim. This includes distinguishing between storm damage and normal wear-and-tear.
We can also work directly with your insurance company and adjuster to ensure repairs meet policy requirements and industry standards. Having a contractor who understands insurance processes can make the difference between a smooth claim experience and months of back-and-forth with your insurance company.
