Hear From Our Clients
You stop worrying every time dark clouds roll in from the ocean. No more buckets in the attic or stains spreading across your ceiling.
Your energy bills drop because your home isn’t bleeding heat through damaged shingles or gaps in the flashing. You’re not calling emergency roofers at midnight when nor’easters dump two feet of snow on Long Island.
The roof becomes what it should be—a barrier that keeps you dry, warm, and protected year-round. You get clear estimates before work starts, so you know exactly what you’re paying for. And when the job’s done, you have a 50-year warranty backing the materials and workmanship, not just a handshake and a hope.
That’s what happens when you work with roofing contractors who’ve spent over a decade fixing what coastal weather does to homes in Amityville.
Home Team Construction is a family-owned roofing company that’s been serving Suffolk County homeowners since before “coastal resilience” became a buzzword. We’re licensed, insured, and local—which means when we install your roof, our reputation is on the line every time you drive past our work.
We’ve handled everything from emergency roof repair after hurricane remnants tear through to full replacements on homes where salt air finally won. Every crew member is trained and insured. We use GAF materials because they’re the best at handling what Long Island throws at them.
You’re not getting a sales pitch. You’re getting someone who understands that your roof takes a beating from nor’easters, temperature swings from 23°F to 81°F, and salt-laden air that accelerates wear faster than most of the country ever sees.
First, we come out and actually look at your roof. Not a satellite image—a real inspection where we check shingles, flashing, gutters, and any spots where water’s been sneaking in. You get photos and a clear explanation of what needs fixing and why.
Then you get a written estimate with line-item pricing. No surprises, no “we’ll figure it out as we go.” If insurance is involved, we walk you through that process too, since about 21% of roofing projects get insurance funding.
Once you approve, we schedule the work around your life, not ours. Our crews show up on time, protect your property, and clean up daily. We’re not the cheapest option in Amityville—and that’s intentional. You’re paying for materials that resist salt air corrosion, workmanship that passes inspection, and a warranty that actually means something when the next storm hits.
When we’re done, you get documentation of everything we did, warranty information, and our number for any questions down the road.
Ready to get started?
You get a full roof system—not just shingles slapped on and a bill. That means proper underlayment, ice and water shield in vulnerable areas, new flashing around chimneys and skylights, and ventilation that actually works. We’re installing roofs that handle Suffolk County’s coastal storms, not just passing inspection.
In Amityville, that matters more than most places. Since 1930, 45 hurricanes have hit this area. Salt air accelerates granule loss on shingles, dropping their lifespan from 25 years to 15-20 years or less. Your roof needs materials that don’t absorb moisture, resist algae growth, and handle temperature swings without cracking.
We use aluminum and galvalume systems that resist corrosion. GAF shingles with 25-year stain guard protection against algae. Proper attic ventilation so your roof doesn’t cook from the inside out during summer. And we handle gutters, siding, skylights, and chimney work—because your roof is part of a system, not an island.
You also get transparent communication throughout the project. We send photos and videos of our work, answer every question, and make sure you’re satisfied before we consider the job done.
For a typical 1,500 square foot home in Amityville, you’re looking at a wide range depending on materials, roof complexity, and what we find when we remove the old shingles. That’s why we don’t throw out numbers over the phone.
Here’s what affects your price: how many layers of old roofing need removal, whether your decking is damaged from leaks, the pitch of your roof, and what materials you choose. A basic asphalt shingle replacement costs less than architectural shingles with extended warranties. But in Suffolk County’s coastal climate, cheaper materials often mean you’re replacing your roof again in 15 years instead of 25.
We give you a written estimate after inspecting your roof in person. That estimate breaks down labor, materials, disposal, and any repairs we find. And if insurance is covering storm damage, we help you navigate that process so you’re not leaving money on the table.
Most residential roof replacements in Amityville take 2-4 days, depending on size, weather, and what we discover once we start tearing off old shingles. A straightforward ranch with good decking? Two days. A two-story colonial with multiple valleys, chimneys, and skylights? Closer to four.
Weather delays happen on Long Island—we’re not working through driving rain or high winds because that compromises the installation. Your roof needs to be dry when we’re laying new materials, and we need safe conditions for our crews.
We protect your property during the project with tarps and barriers, clean up debris daily, and make sure your home is weather-tight every night. You’ll know the timeline before we start, and we’ll update you if anything changes. Most homeowners are surprised how fast it goes once we’re on site.
If your roof is 15-20 years old in Amityville, it’s time for an inspection. Coastal weather shortens shingle lifespan compared to inland areas. But age isn’t the only factor.
Look for black streaks or bare spots where granules have worn off. Check if shingles are curling, cracking, or missing entirely after storms. Inside your home, water stains on ceilings or walls mean water’s getting through. Even small leaks cause mold growth and insulation damage if you wait.
After major storms, inspect for lifted shingles, damaged flashing around chimneys, or granules collecting in your gutters. Those granules protect shingles from UV damage—once they’re gone, your roof deteriorates fast. If you’re seeing multiple issues or your roof is approaching 20 years old, replacement usually makes more sense than patching problems one at a time.
Yes. When storms damage your roof, you need repairs that stop the leak and hold up until we can schedule a full fix or replacement. We respond to emergency calls in Amityville and throughout Suffolk County.
Emergency roof repair means we tarp damaged areas, replace missing shingles, seal leaks, and make your home weather-tight. It’s not a permanent fix—it’s damage control so you’re not dealing with water pouring into your home while we schedule proper repairs.
If the damage is extensive, we document everything for your insurance claim and give you a full assessment of what needs replacing versus what we can repair. Most homeowners don’t realize that insurance funds cover about 21% of roofing projects, so if storm damage is involved, we help you file correctly and get the coverage you’re entitled to.
Amityville’s location near the coast means your roof faces salt air, high winds, temperature swings, and moisture that accelerates wear. Not all roofing materials handle that equally.
Architectural asphalt shingles with algae resistance work well here—they’re cost-effective and hold up to wind and rain when installed correctly. We use GAF products because they offer 50-year warranties and 25-year stain guard protection. For metal components like flashing and gutters, aluminum and galvalume resist salt air corrosion better than standard galvanized steel.
Proper underlayment and ice-and-water shield matter just as much as the shingles you see. In coastal areas, moisture finds every weak point. We install multiple layers of protection so your roof system works together, not just individual components doing their own thing. Ventilation also extends your roof’s life—without it, heat and moisture build up in your attic and cook your shingles from underneath.
Yes. Home Team Construction is fully licensed and insured to perform roofing work throughout Suffolk County, including Amityville. Every crew member carries proper insurance, and we pull permits when required.
That matters more than most homeowners realize. If an unlicensed contractor damages your property or someone gets hurt on your roof, you’re liable. Our insurance protects you. Our license means we follow building codes and pass inspections.
We also back our work with real warranties—50-year manufacturer warranties on materials and workmanship guarantees that last years, not months. You can verify our credentials, check our references, and see examples of our work throughout Amityville. We live here too, so our reputation is on the line with every roof we install.
