Once you approve the work, we’ll schedule your roof replacement around your timeline.

We’ll inspect the roof deck for any damage and make necessary repairs before installing new underlayment.
Your new roof goes on using premium materials designed for Long Island’s climate. We handle all the flashing, ventilation, and finishing details that prevent future problems. When we’re done, we’ll clean up everything, do a final walkthrough with you, and provide photo documentation of the completed work. Most roof replacements in Stony Brook are finished in 1-3 days.

A complete roof replacement in Stony Brook typically ranges from $5,200 to $31,200, depending on your roof size and the materials you choose. Most homeowners with standard asphalt shingle roofs invest between $5,000 and $15,000 for a complete replacement that lasts 20-30 years.
You’re not just paying for shingles. Your investment includes complete tear-off of old materials, inspection and repair of roof decking, new underlayment designed for Suffolk County’s weather, proper flashing around chimneys and vents, improved ventilation systems, and professional installation that meets all local building codes.
The cost varies based on your roof’s size, complexity, and the materials you select. Asphalt shingles are the most popular choice in Stony Brook, costing $5-9 per square foot installed. Metal roofing runs $10-16 per square foot but can last 50+ years. Home Team Construction provides detailed, written estimates so you know exactly what you’re getting for your investment.
Most roof replacements in Stony Brook are completed in 1-3 days, depending on the size and complexity of your roof. A typical single-family home with a straightforward roof design can often be finished in just two days.
Weather can affect the timeline, especially during Long Island’s winter months. We’ll give you a realistic schedule upfront and keep you informed if any delays occur due to conditions beyond our control.
The process includes complete tear-off of old materials, inspection of the roof deck, installation of new underlayment and shingles, and thorough cleanup. We work efficiently without cutting corners to get your home protected as quickly as possible.
Asphalt shingles are the most popular choice in Stony Brook because they handle Long Island’s weather extremes well while remaining affordable. Architectural shingles offer better wind resistance and longer warranties than basic three-tab shingles.
Metal roofing is excellent for coastal areas like Suffolk County because it resists salt air corrosion and can withstand high winds. While more expensive upfront, metal roofs can last 50+ years with minimal maintenance.
For flat or low-slope sections, TPO or EPDM rubber roofing systems work well in this climate. The key is proper installation with adequate underlayment and ventilation to handle both summer humidity and winter ice dam conditions that are common in this area.
Insurance coverage depends on why your roof needs replacement. Storm damage, hail, or sudden events like falling trees are typically covered under most homeowner’s policies in New York.
Normal wear and tear or age-related deterioration usually isn’t covered. However, if storm damage accelerates existing problems, you may have coverage for the entire replacement. We have experience working with insurance adjusters and can help document damage properly.
We’ll take detailed photos, provide written assessments, and work directly with your insurance company when applicable. Many homeowners are surprised to learn their damage qualifies for coverage, so it’s worth having a professional inspection even if you’re not sure about filing a claim.
Age is the biggest factor. Most roofs in Stony Brook need replacement after 15-20 years, depending on the materials and maintenance history. If your roof is approaching this age and has multiple issues, replacement usually makes more financial sense than ongoing repairs.
Look for widespread problems like multiple missing or damaged shingles, granule loss across large areas, or recurring leaks in different spots. If repair costs would exceed 30% of a new roof’s cost, replacement is typically the smarter investment.
We’ll give you an honest assessment of whether repair or replacement makes sense for your situation. We’re not interested in selling you more than you need, but we’ll also warn you when repairs are just delaying inevitable replacement costs.
Most roof replacements in Stony Brook require a building permit from the Town of Brookhaven. This ensures the work meets current building codes and safety standards for Suffolk County.
We handle all permit applications and inspections as part of our service. We know the local requirements and will make sure everything is properly documented and approved before starting work.
The permit process typically takes a few days to a week, depending on the town’s current workload. We’ll factor this timeline into your project schedule so there are no delays once work begins. Having proper permits also protects you if you ever sell your home.
Yes, we provide comprehensive warranties covering both materials and workmanship. Material warranties come directly from manufacturers like GAF, Owens Corning, or CertainTeed and typically range from 20-50 years depending on the products used.
Our workmanship warranty covers installation quality and ensures any issues related to our work will be corrected at no cost to you. This covers problems like improper flashing, inadequate ventilation, or installation errors that could cause leaks.
All warranty terms are clearly explained in writing before work begins. We stand behind our installations because we use proper techniques and quality materials designed for Long Island’s climate conditions. This gives you long-term protection for your investment.
