Hear From Our Clients
Your roof stops leaking. Your energy bills drop. Your home value goes up.
That’s what happens when you work with roofers who actually understand Islip’s weather patterns. We’ve seen what happens to roofs here during hurricane season, winter storms, and those brutal summer heat waves. Your roof takes a beating, but it doesn’t have to fail.
When we finish your project, you get a roof that handles whatever Long Island throws at it. No more buckets catching drips. No more worrying every time storm clouds roll in. Just solid protection that works.
Home Team Construction has been protecting Islip homes for years. We understand Suffolk County weather better than most because we live here too.
Every roofer claims they’re the best, but here’s what actually matters: we show up when we say we will, we use materials that last, and we clean up after ourselves. Our team knows the difference between a quick fix and a real solution.
We’ve handled everything from emergency storm repairs to complete roof replacements throughout Islip. When your neighbors need roofing work, they call us. That’s not marketing talk—that’s just what happens when you do good work consistently.
First, we inspect your roof properly. Not a quick glance from the ground—we get up there and check everything. You’ll know exactly what needs fixing and why.
Then we explain your options clearly. Materials, timeline, cost—no surprises later. We order quality materials designed for Long Island weather conditions.
Installation day, we protect your property first. Tarps, magnetic nail sweeps, the works. Our crew removes old materials carefully and installs your new roof systematically. Every shingle, every piece of flashing, every detail gets attention.
When we’re done, we walk through everything with you. You see the work, understand your warranty, and know how to maintain your investment. Then we clean up completely—your yard looks better than when we started.

Every roofing project includes materials rated for Long Island’s climate extremes. We use architectural shingles that handle wind, ice dams that form during Islip winters, and the thermal cycling that comes with our humid summers.
Your project includes proper ventilation—crucial for preventing those moisture problems that plague so many Suffolk County homes. We install ridge vents, soffit vents, whatever your attic needs to breathe properly.
Flashing gets special attention because that’s where most leaks start. We use step flashing around chimneys, drip edge along gutters, and ice and water shield in vulnerable areas. These details separate roofs that last from roofs that fail.
You also get our cleanup guarantee. We use magnetic rollers to pick up every nail, haul away all debris, and leave your property cleaner than we found it. Your landscaping stays intact, your driveway stays protected.
Most residential roof replacements in Islip take 1-3 days, depending on your home’s size and complexity. Weather can extend this timeline—Long Island’s frequent rain means we sometimes need to pause work to keep your home protected.
We start early and work efficiently, but we never rush quality. Your roof deck needs to stay dry during installation, so if rain’s coming, we’ll secure everything and resume when conditions improve.
Complex roofs with multiple levels, chimneys, or skylights take longer. We’ll give you an accurate timeline during your estimate, and we always communicate if anything changes.
Architectural asphalt shingles perform exceptionally well in Islip’s climate. They handle our temperature swings, resist wind uplift during storms, and come with warranties that make sense for Long Island conditions.
For premium options, metal roofing excels here. It sheds snow and ice effectively, reflects summer heat, and stands up to hurricane-force winds. Initial cost is higher, but longevity often makes it worthwhile.
We avoid three-tab shingles in this area—they’re too light for our wind conditions. Whatever material you choose, proper installation matters more than brand names. The best shingle installed poorly fails faster than a decent shingle installed correctly.
Age tells you a lot. If your roof is over 20 years old and showing multiple problems, replacement usually makes more sense than patching. You’ll spend less money overall and get better protection.
Look for widespread granule loss, multiple leaks, or shingles that curl or crack easily. If more than 30% of your roof shows these signs, replacement is typically the smarter choice.
Storm damage changes the equation. Sometimes newer roofs need replacement after severe weather, while older roofs might only need targeted repairs. We’ll assess honestly—our reputation depends on giving you the right recommendation, not the most expensive one.
Roof replacement costs vary significantly based on size, materials, and complexity. A typical Islip home runs $15,000-$25,000 for quality architectural shingles, including removal and disposal of old materials.
Premium materials like metal or slate cost more upfront but last longer. Repairs range from a few hundred dollars for minor fixes to several thousand for extensive work.
Get multiple estimates, but don’t choose based on price alone. The cheapest bid often means corners get cut somewhere—materials, labor, or cleanup. We price fairly for quality work that lasts, and we’ll explain exactly what you’re paying for.
Yes, we respond to emergency calls throughout Islip and Suffolk County. Storm damage, sudden leaks, or structural issues can’t wait for regular business hours.
Our emergency service focuses on stopping further damage first. We’ll tarp damaged areas, secure loose materials, and make temporary repairs to protect your home’s interior.
Once the immediate crisis is handled, we’ll assess what permanent repairs are needed. Sometimes emergency damage reveals underlying problems that need attention. We’ll prioritize based on what protects your home most effectively.
Keep gutters clean—clogged gutters cause ice dams and water backup that damage roof edges. Check them twice yearly, especially after storms when debris accumulates.
Trim tree branches that hang over your roof. They drop leaves, scrape shingles during wind, and provide pathways for squirrels and other animals that can cause damage.
Look for obvious problems from the ground: missing or damaged shingles, sagging areas, or daylight visible through the roof structure. Don’t climb up there yourself—that’s dangerous and unnecessary. Call us if you spot anything concerning, and we’ll inspect properly.
