Your roof leak isn’t getting better on its own. Every storm that rolls through Centerport brings salt air, driving rain, and wind that finds every weak spot. You’ve probably noticed the water stains growing on your ceiling, or maybe you’re up in the attic with a bucket again.
Here’s what happens when we fix it right: no more emergency calls during the next storm. No more wondering if that stain is getting bigger. Your insurance stays happy, your family stays dry, and you get back to the things that actually matter to you.
We’ve been handling Long Island weather for over 15 years. We know exactly what your roof is up against, and more importantly, we know how to fix it so it stays fixed.
Home Team Construction has been keeping Centerport roofs solid since we started. We’re not the biggest roofing company on Long Island, but we’re the one that answers the phone when you call and shows up when we say we will.
Our team knows what Long Island weather does to roofs. The salt air from the Sound, the ice dams from those brutal winters, the summer storms that come out of nowhere—we’ve seen it all, and we’ve fixed it all. When other contractors are booking you three weeks out, we’re usually there the next day.
We’re licensed, insured, and we’ve built our reputation one roof at a time. Most of our customers call us back for their next project, which tells you something about how we do business.
First, we come out and actually look at your roof—not just from the ground, but up there where the problems are. We take photos of what we find so you can see exactly what you’re dealing with. No guessing, no upselling, just the straight story about what needs to happen.
Then we give you a real estimate. Not a ballpark figure that doubles when we start working, but an honest price for honest work. We explain what we’re going to do, how long it’ll take, and what it’ll cost.
When we start the job, we protect your property like it’s ours. Tarps go down, landscaping gets covered, and we clean up every day before we leave. Most jobs get done in a day, weather permitting. When we’re finished, your roof is solid, your property is clean, and you have photos of the completed work.

We handle the full range of roofing work that Centerport homes need. Leak repairs, storm damage, full replacements, gutters, chimneys, skylights—if it’s on your roof or connected to it, we fix it. We’re not specialists in just one thing; we’re the team you call when your roof has problems.
Centerport sits right on the water, which means your roof takes a beating from salt air and coastal storms. We use materials that can handle what Long Island throws at them. GAF shingles, proper flashing, ice and water shield where the code requires it—we don’t cut corners on the stuff that keeps water out.
Most of our calls come from storm damage, but we also do plenty of maintenance work. Sometimes fixing a few loose shingles now saves you from replacing half your roof later. We’ll tell you honestly whether you need a repair or a replacement, and we’ll show you why.
We typically get to roof leaks within 24 hours, often the same day you call. Long Island weather doesn’t wait, and neither do we.
For emergency situations—like active leaks during a storm—we can usually get someone out to at least stop the water from coming in while we wait for conditions to improve for permanent repairs. We keep tarps and emergency materials on our trucks specifically for these situations.
Most leak repairs in Centerport get completed in a few hours once we start working. If it’s a simple flashing issue or a few damaged shingles, we can usually fix it and have you protected the same day. More complex problems might take longer, but we’ll always stabilize the situation first so you’re not dealing with water damage while we work.
Roof replacement costs in Centerport typically run between $8,000 and $15,000 for most homes, depending on size, materials, and complexity. That’s for a complete tear-off and replacement with quality materials that can handle Long Island weather.
The price includes everything: permits, materials, labor, cleanup, and disposal of your old roof. We don’t hit you with surprise charges for things like ice and water shield or proper ventilation—that’s all part of doing the job right the first time.
Factors that affect cost include your roof size, the pitch and complexity of your rooflines, what type of shingles you choose, and whether we find any deck damage that needs repair. We give you a detailed written estimate that breaks down exactly what you’re paying for, so you know where every dollar goes.
Yes, we work with insurance companies regularly and can help guide you through the claims process. We know what adjusters look for and how to document damage properly to support your claim.
When we inspect storm damage, we take detailed photos and notes that your insurance company will need. We can meet with your adjuster on-site to explain the scope of work and make sure nothing gets missed. This often speeds up the approval process and helps ensure you get fair coverage.
We’ll work directly with your insurance company on approved claims, so you don’t have to pay out of pocket and wait for reimbursement. Just keep in mind that you’re still responsible for your deductible, and any work that goes beyond what insurance covers needs to be approved by you first.
For Centerport’s location right on Long Island Sound, we recommend architectural shingles from manufacturers like GAF or CertainTeed. These hold up better against salt air and coastal storms than basic three-tab shingles.
The key is proper installation with the right underlayment and flashing materials. We use synthetic underlayment instead of felt paper—it doesn’t absorb moisture and won’t deteriorate if it gets wet during installation. For flashing, we use corrosion-resistant materials that won’t break down from salt exposure.
Ventilation is crucial in coastal areas. Trapped moisture and heat will kill your roof faster than storms will. We install ridge vents and soffit vents to keep air moving through your attic space. This prevents ice dams in winter and reduces cooling costs in summer. The investment in proper materials and installation pays for itself in how long your roof lasts.
We recommend annual inspections for most Centerport homes, plus an additional check after any major storm. Your roof takes more abuse here than it would inland—salt air, coastal storms, and rapid temperature changes all accelerate wear.
Spring is usually the best time for your annual inspection. Winter weather reveals problems that might not be obvious during calmer months, and you want to catch issues before the next storm season starts. We check shingles, flashing, gutters, and ventilation to spot problems while they’re still small and affordable to fix.
After significant storms—especially those with high winds or hail—it’s worth having someone take a look even if you don’t see obvious damage from the ground. Sometimes wind damage isn’t immediately visible, but it creates weak spots that will fail during the next storm. A quick inspection after severe weather can save you from emergency repairs later.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for one full year from completion date. If something we installed or repaired fails due to our work, we come back and fix it at no charge. This covers installation issues, not normal wear and tear or damage from new storms.
Material warranties depend on what we install. Most shingles come with manufacturer warranties ranging from 25 to 50 years, though these are usually prorated after the first few years. We’ll explain exactly what coverage you have and help you understand how to maintain it.
For larger projects, we also provide documentation and photos of the completed work. This helps if you ever need to file an insurance claim or if you sell your home and the new owners have questions about the roof. We keep records of all our work, so even years later, we can tell you exactly what was done and when.
