Hear From Our Clients
You stop worrying about leaks every time a nor’easter rolls through. Your attic stays dry when the wind picks up and the rain drives sideways across Long Island.
You’re not calling another contractor in six months because shingles are already lifting. The roof holds up through scorching summers and ice storms without needing constant attention.
Your insurance claim gets handled without you having to fight for every dollar. The property looks clean when we leave, and you’re not finding nails in your driveway three weeks later. You know what you paid upfront, and that number doesn’t change halfway through the job.
Home Team Construction works in your neighborhood because we live here too. We’ve spent over a decade solving leaks, replacing shingles, and dealing with the same weather that hits your house.
We’re licensed and insured, and we work with GAF and Owens Corning because those materials actually hold up in coastal conditions. When you call, you’re talking to people who understand what Long Island weather does to roofs and how to build them to last.
Springs homeowners deal with enough—unreliable contractors shouldn’t be one of those things. We show up when we say we will, we clean up when we’re done, and we don’t leave you guessing about costs or timelines.
First, we come out and actually look at your roof. We check the decking, the flashing, the drainage—everything that matters for a Long Island installation. You get a clear estimate that doesn’t change unless you change the scope.
Once you’re ready to move forward, we schedule around weather that works for proper installation. We protect your landscaping, lay down tarps, and tear off the old roof down to the deck so we can see what we’re working with.
New underlayment goes down first, then we install shingles with attention to flashing angles and drainage planes that prevent leaks. We’re looking at how water moves across your roof during a storm, not just slapping down materials as fast as possible.
When the installation’s done, we walk the property and pick up every nail and piece of debris. You get a roof that’s built to handle Springs weather and a yard that looks like we were never there.

Every roof installation includes complete tear-off and disposal of old materials. We inspect and replace damaged decking before any new materials go down, because a new roof on rotted wood doesn’t solve anything.
You get quality underlayment, proper ventilation, and shingles from manufacturers that warranty their products in coastal climates. We install new flashing around chimneys, skylights, and valleys—the spots where most leaks start when contractors cut corners.
In Springs and across Suffolk County, your roof takes a beating from salt air, high winds, and temperature swings. We account for that in material selection and installation technique. Asphalt shingles work well here when they’re installed correctly, and metal roofing is an option if you want something that lasts longer with less maintenance.
The job includes full cleanup and a final walkthrough where we explain what we did and what you should watch for down the road. If you’re dealing with insurance, we document everything they need to see.
Most roof replacements in Springs run between $8,000 and $13,000 for asphalt shingles on an average-sized home. That number moves based on roof size, pitch, and how many layers we’re tearing off.
Metal roofing costs more upfront but lasts 40-70 years compared to 20-30 for asphalt. If your decking is damaged from old leaks, that’s additional material and labor to replace those sections before the new roof goes on.
We give you an upfront estimate that breaks down materials, labor, disposal, and any extras like new flashing or skylight work. The price doesn’t change unless you change what you want done. No surprises, no “we found something” markups halfway through the job.
Most residential roof installations take one to three days depending on size and complexity. A straightforward ranch with good access might be done in a day. A two-story home with multiple valleys, chimneys, and skylights takes longer.
Weather matters more on Long Island than people realize. We don’t install in rain or high winds because materials don’t seal properly and the work won’t last. If we’re scheduled and conditions aren’t right, we reschedule rather than rush a job that’ll fail in six months.
We’ll give you a realistic timeline when we estimate the job. If something comes up during tear-off—damaged decking, rotted framing—we tell you immediately and explain what it’ll take to fix it properly. You’re not left wondering when we’ll be done or why it’s taking longer than expected.
Asphalt shingles are the most common choice in Springs because they handle coastal weather well and cost less than most alternatives. Architectural shingles hold up better than three-tab in high winds and come with longer warranties.
Metal roofing is gaining ground with homeowners who want something that lasts longer and needs less maintenance. It sheds snow and ice better, doesn’t absorb heat like asphalt, and holds up to salt air without deteriorating. The upfront cost is higher, but you’re not replacing it in 20 years.
Slate and tile look great but they’re heavy, expensive, and overkill for most Springs homes. The key isn’t just the material—it’s proper installation with attention to ventilation, underlayment, and flashing. A cheap roof installed correctly beats expensive materials installed poorly every time.
Yes. We document storm damage, take photos your insurance company needs, and provide detailed estimates that match what adjusters look for. Most Long Island homeowners don’t know what their policy covers or how to push back on lowball settlements.
We’ve worked with every major insurance carrier operating in Suffolk County. When they send an adjuster, we meet them on site and walk through the damage so nothing gets missed. If they deny something that should be covered, we explain why their assessment is wrong and provide the documentation to support it.
You’re still the one dealing with your insurance company—we can’t file the claim for you—but we give you everything you need to get a fair settlement. That includes line-item estimates, material specs, and explanations of why certain work is necessary. We’ve seen too many homeowners get stuck with out-of-pocket costs because they didn’t know how to fight for proper coverage.
If you’ve got a few missing shingles or a small leak in one spot, repair usually makes sense. If your roof is over 20 years old, has widespread granule loss, or leaks in multiple areas, replacement is the better move.
Curling shingles, daylight showing through the attic, and sagging sections all point to replacement. Patching an old roof buys you time, but you’re throwing money at something that’ll need replacement soon anyway. We’ll tell you honestly which makes more sense for your situation and budget.
Springs weather accelerates roof aging. Salt air, nor’easters, and temperature swings break down materials faster than they would inland. When we inspect your roof, we’re looking at overall condition, not just the immediate problem. If repair gets you another 5-7 years, we’ll say so. If you’re looking at multiple repairs over the next few years, replacement saves you money and headaches in the long run.
Licensed and insured is non-negotiable. Anyone working on your roof should carry liability insurance and workers’ comp. If they don’t and someone gets hurt on your property, you’re liable.
Ask how long they’ve worked in Suffolk County specifically. Long Island weather is different from upstate or New Jersey, and local experience matters. Check if they’re certified with major manufacturers like GAF or Owens Corning—that means they’ve met quality standards and can offer better warranties.
Get everything in writing: scope of work, materials, timeline, total cost. If a contractor won’t provide a detailed estimate or pushes you to decide immediately, walk away. References from recent Springs or East Hampton jobs tell you more than generic reviews. And if the price seems too good to be true, it is—you’ll pay more fixing their work than you would’ve spent hiring someone competent from the start.
