That drip in your living room isn’t just annoying – it’s a warning. Last night’s storm found the weak spot in your roof, and now water is working its way into places it doesn’t belong. Every drop that falls means more damage spreading through your home.
Here’s what life looks like after we fix it right. You sleep through storms without wondering if you’ll wake up to new water stains. Your furniture stays where you want it, not pushed into corners away from leaks. When the next nor’easter hits Southold, your roof handles it like it should.
No more emergency buckets. No more frantic calls during storms. Just a roof that does its job – keeping your family dry and your home protected from Southold’s unpredictable weather.
Home Team Construction has been fixing roofs in Southold since 2013. We’re not some franchise that showed up last month – we’re the local contractors your neighbors call when their roofs need real repairs that last.
We understand what North Fork weather does to roofing materials. How those 50-mph wind gusts work shingles loose. Why ice dams form in specific spots every winter. Where salt air causes the most corrosion damage on flashing and gutters.
Our team lives here too. When we repair your roof, we’re protecting our own community. That’s why we use materials rated for coastal conditions and installation methods that work specifically in Southold’s climate.
When you call with a roof emergency, we dispatch someone to your Southold property the same day. Not “we’ll try to squeeze you in” – we actually show up when roofs are leaking because we know water damage doesn’t wait.
Our technician starts by stopping the immediate leak with temporary weatherproofing, then documents the damage with photos so you can see exactly what needs repair. You get a detailed written estimate that breaks down materials, labor, and timeline before any permanent work begins.
The actual repair uses materials designed for Long Island’s coastal environment – not generic products that work fine in Kansas but fail here in two years. We install everything to manufacturer specifications, clean up completely, and provide photos of the finished work.
Most emergency roof repairs in Southold are completed within 24-48 hours of your call, weather permitting. Larger repairs might take 2-3 days, but we always give you realistic timelines upfront.

Every roof repair we complete in Southold includes materials specifically engineered for coastal conditions. We don’t use the same asphalt shingles that work fine in Arizona – your roof faces salt spray, temperature swings from 25°F to 80°F, and wind gusts that regularly exceed 45 mph.
You get architectural shingles rated for 130-mph winds, not the basic 3-tab shingles that blow off in moderate storms. Flashing made from materials that resist salt air corrosion. Ice and water shield in areas where Southold homes typically develop problems.
We also handle the repairs that other contractors avoid – chimney flashing around those old North Fork chimneys, skylight sealing that actually stays watertight, and valley repairs that channel water properly instead of creating new leak points. Each repair includes proper ventilation to prevent moisture buildup that leads to future problems.
Your repair comes with complete cleanup because we know you don’t want roofing debris in your landscaping for the next six months. We use magnetic tools to pick up every nail and metal fragment.
We provide same-day emergency response for roof leaks in Southold because water damage spreads exponentially – what starts as a small drip can ruin drywall, insulation, and flooring within hours. When you call our emergency line, we dispatch a technician to your property within 2-4 hours during business hours, and within 6 hours for after-hours emergencies.
Our emergency service includes immediate temporary weatherproofing to stop water intrusion, damage assessment with photos, and a plan for permanent repairs. We carry emergency materials in our service vehicles specifically for situations where you need the leak stopped immediately, not next week.
For non-emergency repairs like missing shingles or minor flashing issues, we typically schedule within 1-2 business days. But if weather is forecast or you’re concerned about the damage getting worse, we treat it as priority service.
The most common roof repairs we handle in Southold are wind damage from coastal storms, missing or damaged shingles, and flashing failures around chimneys and skylights. Southold’s location on the North Fork means roofs regularly face wind gusts exceeding 45 mph, which work shingles loose and damage flashing over time.
We also repair significant ice dam damage each winter, especially on older homes with inadequate attic insulation. The temperature swings from Long Island Sound create perfect conditions for ice formation that backs water under shingles. Salt air corrosion is another major issue – standard galvanized flashing fails much faster here than inland locations.
Hail damage from severe thunderstorms is becoming more frequent, creating granule loss and exposed mat that leads to leaks within months if not repaired properly. Each type of damage requires specific repair techniques and materials rated for our coastal environment.
Every roof repair estimate we provide in Southold is detailed, written, and includes material specifications, labor breakdown, and total project cost. You’ll see exactly what type of shingles we’re installing, what grade of flashing we’re using, and how much each component costs.
Our estimates include manufacturer part numbers so you can verify we’re using quality materials, not generic substitutes. We specify installation methods, warranty coverage, and realistic timelines for completion. You’ll also see our licensing and insurance information right on the estimate.
The price we quote is the price you pay – no surprise charges or “additional work discovered” unless we find genuinely unexpected structural issues. Even then, we document the problem with photos and get your approval before proceeding with any additional work.
We maintain full licensing and insurance coverage for all roofing work in Suffolk County, including Southold. We carry general liability insurance, workers’ compensation coverage, and bonding to protect homeowners from any issues during repairs.
Our licensing ensures we’re current on local building codes, permit requirements, and safety regulations specific to Southold and Suffolk County. We handle permit applications for larger repairs and ensure all work meets or exceeds local construction standards.
You can verify our insurance coverage before we start work – we provide certificates of insurance because we understand how important it is to work with properly protected contractors. We’ve maintained continuous coverage throughout our 10+ years serving Southold residents.
We provide comprehensive warranty coverage on all roof repairs completed in Southold – our workmanship is guaranteed, and all materials come with manufacturer warranties. Workmanship warranties typically range from 2-5 years depending on the scope of repair, while material warranties vary from 10-30 years based on the products used.
Our workmanship warranty covers any installation-related failures – if a repair fails due to our installation methods, we fix it at no charge including materials and labor. Material defects are handled through manufacturer warranty programs, but we coordinate claims and ensure you get proper coverage.
We document every repair with before/during/after photos that serve as warranty records. Most importantly, we’ve been serving Southold for over a decade, so we’ll be here when you need warranty service, unlike contractors who disappear after completing jobs.
Roof repair costs in Southold typically range from $400-$2,000 for common issues like shingle replacement, flashing repair, or small leak fixes. Emergency repairs requiring immediate response may cost 20-30% more due to urgency and potential after-hours service.
Minor repairs like replacing a few missing shingles usually cost $400-$800. Flashing repairs around chimneys or skylights range from $600-$1,200. Larger repairs involving multiple roof sections or structural issues can range from $2,000-$5,000 depending on materials and complexity.
We always provide written estimates before starting work, so you know exactly what to expect. Our pricing reflects the higher-quality materials required for Southold’s coastal environment – we use products that last longer than cheap alternatives, providing better long-term value even if the initial cost is slightly higher.
