When your roof starts leaking, you need more than a quick patch job. You need repairs that protect your home through the next storm, the next freeze, and the next decade of coastal weather that hits Southampton.
That’s what you get when you call Home Team Construction. No temporary fixes that fail in six months. No surprise charges halfway through the job. Just solid storm damage repair and shingle replacement that gives you real peace of mind.
Your roof leak gets fixed properly the first time. Your insurance claim gets handled without the runaround. And you get back to living your life instead of worrying about water damage every time those Atlantic storms roll through.
We’ve been fixing roofs across Southampton and Long Island for years. We understand what coastal weather does to your shingles, flashing repair around chimneys, and gutters when those nor’easters hit.
We’ve seen every type of roof problem that hits this area. Hail damage from summer storms. Salt air corrosion eating away at flashing. Ice dam issues when winter weather creates freeze-thaw cycles. Wind-lifted shingles from those sudden storms that roll in off the Atlantic.
When you call us, you’re getting residential roof repair specialists who live and work in this community. We know which materials hold up best in Southampton’s climate, and we stand behind every repair we make.
First, we come out and actually look at your roof. Not just the obvious damage, but everything that could cause problems down the road. We check your flashing repair needs, inspect for missing shingles, and look for signs of water infiltration you might not see from the ground.
Then we give you a straight answer about what needs fixing and what it’ll cost. No inflated estimates. No pressure tactics. Just honest pricing for quality work that addresses minor roof damage before it becomes major.
Once you approve the work, we handle everything. We pull permits if needed, coordinate with your insurance company for storm damage claims, and complete the repairs using materials designed for Southampton’s coastal conditions. You get updates throughout the process, and we clean up completely when we’re done.
Ready to get started?
Every roof repair starts with a thorough inspection of your entire roof system. We don’t just fix the leak you called about – we identify and address anything else that could fail soon, from fixing missing shingles to flashing repair around skylights.
Our repairs include high-quality materials specifically chosen for Southampton’s coastal environment. That means shingles rated for high winds, corrosion-resistant flashing, and sealants that won’t break down in salt air. We handle everything from emergency roof repair to planned shingle replacement.
You also get documentation for your insurance company, photos of the damage and repairs, and a warranty on our workmanship. We handle permit applications when required and coordinate with your insurance adjuster to make sure your hail damage repair claim goes smoothly.
We typically respond to emergency roof repair calls within 24 hours, often sooner depending on the severity and our current schedule. For true emergencies – like major leaks causing interior damage – we can often get someone out the same day.
Our emergency response includes temporary leak mitigation to prevent further damage while we schedule the permanent repair. We’ll tarp or seal the immediate problem area and then return to complete the full repair work, whether that’s fixing missing shingles or more extensive storm damage repair.
Keep in mind that weather conditions can affect response times. During major storms hitting Southampton, we prioritize calls based on safety and severity of damage.
Most homeowner’s insurance policies cover roof damage caused by storms, wind, hail damage, or other sudden events. However, they typically don’t cover damage from normal wear and tear or lack of maintenance.
We work directly with insurance companies and can help document your storm damage properly for your claim. We’ll take detailed photos, provide written assessments, and communicate with your adjuster to ensure you get fair coverage for everything from shingle replacement to flashing repair around chimneys.
The key is acting quickly after storm damage occurs in Southampton. Most policies require you to report damage promptly and take steps to prevent further damage to your home.
In Southampton, we see a lot of wind damage from coastal storms – lifted or missing shingles, damaged flashing repair needs around chimneys and vents, and compromised roof edges where wind gets underneath during those Atlantic storms.
Salt air corrosion is another big issue here. It affects metal flashing, gutters, and fasteners faster than in inland areas. We also deal with ice dam problems in winter when snow melts and refreezes at roof edges, creating minor roof damage that can become major if not addressed.
Hail damage from summer thunderstorms is common too, especially during severe weather that moves through Long Island. These storms can puncture shingles, damage gutters, or compromise the roof structure itself.
Quality residential roof repair using proper materials should last 15-20 years or more in Southampton’s coastal environment. The key is using materials specifically rated for high winds and salt air exposure that we see here on Long Island.
Standard asphalt shingles might only last 12-15 years here, while architectural shingles or metal roofing can go 20-30 years. Proper installation of everything from shingle replacement to flashing repair around skylights extends the life significantly.
We warranty our workmanship, and we use materials with manufacturer warranties appropriate for coastal conditions. Regular inspections every few years help catch small issues before they become major emergency roof repair situations.
Yes, we handle all permit applications required for roof repair work in Southampton. Most minor roof damage repair doesn’t require permits, but larger repairs, extensive shingle replacement, or partial roof replacements typically do.
We know the local building codes and requirements, so we’ll determine what permits are needed and handle the application process. This is included in our service – you don’t pay extra for permit handling on your storm damage repair or other work.
The permit process usually takes a few days to a week, depending on the scope of work. We factor this timing into our project schedule so there are no delays in getting your roof fixed.
First, protect your belongings by moving furniture and electronics away from the leak area. Place buckets or containers to catch dripping water and lay down tarps or towels to protect flooring from water damage.
If possible, get into your attic and place a bucket directly under the leak to prevent water from spreading through insulation and ceiling materials. Take photos of the damage for insurance documentation, especially if this might be storm damage or hail damage.
Call us as soon as it’s safe to do so for emergency roof repair. Don’t wait for the leak to get worse – water damage spreads quickly and can lead to mold problems. Avoid going on your roof yourself, especially in wet conditions or after storms hit Southampton.
