Hear From Our Clients
You shouldn’t have to wonder if your roof can handle the next storm. When you work with experienced roofers who understand Fort Salonga’s unique weather challenges, you get more than just a roof—you get peace of mind.
Your home becomes the secure foundation your family deserves. No more buckets catching drips during nor’easters. No more worrying about ice dams damaging your ceilings. No more emergency calls when high winds hit.
Instead, you wake up confident that your roof is doing its job, protecting everything that matters most to you.
We’ve been serving Fort Salonga homeowners for years, and we’ve learned something important: your roof faces challenges that contractors from other areas might miss.
The coastal storms that roll through here aren’t like storms elsewhere. The freeze-thaw cycles that create ice dams require specific solutions. The salt air and humidity demand materials and techniques that can handle Long Island’s unique environment.
That’s why Fort Salonga residents trust us with their most important investment—their home.
We start with a thorough inspection of your current roof, checking for damage you might not see from the ground. We look at shingles, flashing, gutters, and structural elements to understand exactly what your roof needs.
Next, we explain our findings in plain language and provide a detailed estimate with no surprises. We discuss material options that work best for Fort Salonga’s climate and your budget.
When we begin work, we protect your landscaping and property, complete the job efficiently, and clean up thoroughly. You’ll have photos of the work in progress and a roof that’s built to handle whatever Long Island weather brings next.

Your roof system includes more than just shingles. We handle every component that keeps water out of your home, from gutters and downspouts to flashing and ventilation.
Fort Salonga’s older homes often need specialized attention. Many properties here were built in the 1940s and 1950s, and original roofing systems weren’t designed for today’s extreme weather patterns. We understand how to upgrade these systems while maintaining your home’s character.
We also know that coastal properties face additional challenges from salt air and high humidity. Our material selections and installation techniques account for these factors, ensuring your investment lasts for decades.
Most residential roof replacements in Fort Salonga take 1-3 days, depending on the size and complexity of your roof. Weather can affect timing, especially during Long Island’s unpredictable spring and fall seasons.
We always protect your home with tarps if weather interrupts the work. Our team works efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily routine while ensuring quality installation that will protect your home for decades.
Fort Salonga’s coastal location and temperature extremes require materials that can handle high winds, salt air, and freeze-thaw cycles. We typically recommend architectural shingles from manufacturers like GAF or Owens Corning, which offer excellent wind resistance and durability.
For homes near the water, we often suggest materials with enhanced algae resistance and corrosion protection. The specific choice depends on your home’s style, budget, and exposure to coastal elements.
Ice dams form when heat escapes from your attic, melting snow that refreezes at the roof’s edge. Proper attic insulation and ventilation are crucial for prevention.
We inspect your attic during roof evaluations and recommend improvements to air sealing and ventilation systems. Installing ice and water shield along the roof’s edge provides additional protection. These preventive measures save you from costly interior damage during Long Island’s harsh winters.
After a storm, first ensure your family’s safety—don’t climb on a damaged roof. Document any visible damage with photos for insurance purposes, then call experienced local roofers for a professional inspection.
We provide emergency services to prevent further damage, including temporary tarping if needed. Our team knows how to work with insurance companies and can help you navigate the claims process while ensuring repairs meet local building codes.
We recommend annual inspections for most Fort Salonga homes, with additional checks after major storms. Homes built in the 1940s-1960s may benefit from more frequent inspections due to aging materials and systems.
Spring inspections help identify winter damage before summer storms arrive. Fall inspections ensure your roof is ready for another Long Island winter. Regular maintenance catches small problems before they become expensive emergencies.
Fort Salonga’s location on Long Island’s North Shore creates unique challenges. Coastal storms bring high winds and salt air that accelerate material deterioration. The area’s mature trees can damage roofs during storms, and proximity to water increases humidity and algae growth.
Many Fort Salonga homes are 60-80 years old, requiring specialized knowledge of older construction methods and materials. We understand these factors and select appropriate solutions for your specific location and home style.
