Hear From Our Clients
That drip in your ceiling isn’t waiting for a convenient time to become a flood. Every hour you wait, water seeps deeper into your walls, insulation, and flooring.
You need someone who shows up when they say they will and fixes it right the first time. Not a temporary patch that fails in two months, but a real repair that handles whatever Long Island weather throws at it.
When we’re done, you sleep through storms instead of lying awake wondering if that leak is back. Your insurance stays happy, your home stays dry, and you stop playing bucket brigade every time it rains.
Home Team Construction has been fixing roofs in Babylon and across Long Island for years. We’ve seen what nor’easters, summer storms, and salt air do to roofs here.
Most contractors treat every roof the same. We know that Long Island homes need repairs that can handle coastal weather, freeze-thaw cycles, and the occasional hurricane. We use materials and techniques that work in this climate, not just whatever’s cheapest.
You’re not getting a sales pitch from us. You’re getting straight answers about what’s wrong, what it takes to fix it, and what it costs.
First, we actually show up when scheduled and take a thorough look at your roof. No guessing from the ground—we get up there and find the real source of your problem, not just the obvious symptom.
We explain what we found in plain English and give you an upfront price. No “we’ll see what we find” pricing games. If we discover additional issues during the work, we discuss them with you before proceeding.
Then we fix it using materials designed for Long Island’s weather patterns. We clean up our mess, test our work, and make sure you understand what we did and how to maintain it. You get photos of the completed work and a clear warranty on our repairs.

Your roof repair includes complete leak detection, not just fixing the obvious spots. We trace water paths to find the actual entry points—often different from where you see the drip inside.
For Babylon homes, we pay special attention to flashing around chimneys and skylights where salt air and temperature changes cause the most problems. We use marine-grade sealants and weather-resistant materials that handle Long Island’s coastal conditions.
Storm damage repairs include shingle replacement, fascia board repair, and gutter realignment when needed. We document everything with photos for insurance claims and provide detailed invoices that adjusters actually accept without pushback.
We prioritize emergency roof repairs and typically respond within 24 hours, often sooner for urgent situations. When you have water actively coming into your home, every hour matters.
Our emergency response includes temporary weatherproofing to stop immediate water intrusion, followed by permanent repairs as soon as weather and materials allow. We understand that roof leaks don’t wait for convenient times, especially during Long Island’s storm season.
For true emergencies where water is actively entering your home, we’ll walk you through temporary measures over the phone while we’re en route to help minimize damage until we arrive.
Long Island’s coastal climate creates specific roofing challenges we see repeatedly in Babylon. Salt air accelerates metal corrosion, particularly around flashing and gutters, while freeze-thaw cycles cause shingles to crack and lift.
Storm damage from nor’easters and summer thunderstorms often includes missing or damaged shingles, compromised flashing around penetrations, and impact damage from flying debris. We also frequently repair ice dam damage from winter storms.
Older homes in Babylon often have original flashing that’s failed due to age and salt exposure. This creates leak points around chimneys, skylights, and roof valleys that require specialized repair techniques for our coastal environment.
Yes, we regularly work with insurance adjusters and understand what documentation they need for roof repair claims. We provide detailed estimates, photographs, and damage assessments that insurance companies accept.
We’ll meet with your adjuster on-site to explain the damage and necessary repairs. Our estimates clearly separate storm damage from normal wear and tear, helping ensure your claim gets proper consideration.
We don’t handle the insurance paperwork for you, but we provide all the technical documentation and professional assessment your insurance company needs to process your claim efficiently.
Most standard roof repairs in Babylon take one to two days, depending on the extent of damage and weather conditions. Emergency leak repairs often get temporary protection the same day, with permanent repairs completed within a few days.
Larger repairs involving multiple roof sections or structural issues may take three to five days. We’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront and keep you updated if weather or unexpected findings affect the schedule.
We don’t rush repairs to meet arbitrary deadlines. Long Island weather can be unpredictable, and we won’t compromise quality by working in unsafe conditions or when materials won’t properly adhere.
Our roof repairs come with a written warranty that covers both materials and workmanship. The specific warranty period depends on the type of repair and materials used, but we stand behind our work.
We use quality materials designed for Long Island’s coastal environment, and most carry manufacturer warranties in addition to our workmanship guarantee. We’ll explain exactly what’s covered before we start work.
If you have issues with our repair work during the warranty period, we return to assess and fix the problem at no charge. We’re not interested in temporary fixes that fail—we want repairs that last.
Absolutely. Many Babylon homes were built decades ago, and we’re experienced with the unique challenges of older roof systems. Older homes often have layered roofing materials, outdated flashing, and structural quirks that require specialized knowledge.
We can work with existing roof structures while bringing critical elements like flashing and ventilation up to current standards. Sometimes older homes need creative solutions that newer construction doesn’t require.
We’ll assess the overall condition of your roof system and let you know if repairs make sense or if you’re better off considering replacement. We’re honest about when throwing good money after bad isn’t in your best interest.
