Hear From Our Clients
You know that feeling when weather reports show another coastal storm heading your way? That sick worry about whether your roof will hold up this time. Whether you’ll wake up to water dripping through your ceiling again.
When we install or replace your roof, that worry disappears. Your roof becomes engineered for exactly what Southampton weather throws at it – from hurricane-force winds to salt air that eats through inferior materials. You stop checking the forecast with dread and start trusting your home’s protection.
No more emergency calls to roofers during storms. No more watching neighbors deal with leaks while wondering if you’re next. Just solid protection that lets you focus on what matters instead of worrying about your roof.
That’s the difference between hiring any roofing contractor and working with roofers who understand coastal conditions.
Home Team Construction has been protecting Southampton homes for years because we understand something other roofing contractors miss – coastal roofing isn’t just regular roofing near water. It requires different materials, different techniques, and different thinking.
We’ve seen what happens when out-of-area contractors use standard approaches in Southampton. Beautiful roofs that fail within three years because they weren’t designed for salt air. Perfect installations that get destroyed by the first major storm because the contractor didn’t understand coastal wind patterns.
When you work with us, you’re getting roofers who live here, work here, and have skin in the game. We know Southampton’s building codes, permit processes, and exactly which materials actually last in this environment. Because when your roof fails, our reputation is on the line in our own community.
We start with a detailed inspection of your current roof and provide a comprehensive, fixed-price estimate. No hidden fees that appear later. No surprises. Just clear information about what your roof needs and exactly what it will cost.
During roof installation or replacement, we protect your property like it’s our own. Daily cleanup means no nails in your driveway, no debris in your landscaping, and no construction mess for you to deal with. We use dust control measures and plastic barriers to keep your living spaces comfortable throughout the project.
You get regular updates on progress and input on any decisions that come up. We complete each phase systematically – from tear-off to final cleanup – ensuring quality at every step. The job isn’t done until it meets our standards and exceeds your expectations, with warranties that back up our work.

Southampton’s location between the Atlantic Ocean and Peconic Bay creates unique challenges that standard roofing materials simply can’t handle. Salt air corrodes metal components, high winds test every fastener, and temperature swings cause expansion and contraction that break down inferior installations.
We use roofing materials specifically engineered for coastal environments. Metal roofing systems with enhanced corrosion resistance. Architectural shingles designed for high wind zones. Cedar shakes treated for moisture resistance. Every material choice considers Southampton’s specific weather patterns and coastal exposure levels.
Our roof installation process includes enhanced underlayment, specialized flashing systems, and ventilation designed for coastal humidity. Whether you’re protecting a waterfront estate or an inland Southampton home, we match our approach to your property’s specific exposure and architectural requirements. The result is roofing that doesn’t just look good – it performs reliably for decades in Southampton’s demanding coastal climate.
Southampton’s salt air, high winds, and seasonal storms eliminate many standard roofing options. Metal roofing performs exceptionally well here – aluminum and steel systems with marine-grade coatings resist corrosion and handle hurricane-force winds that destroy traditional shingles.
For homeowners wanting traditional aesthetics, architectural asphalt shingles with impact resistance work well when properly installed with enhanced underlayment and specialized flashing. Cedar shingles remain popular in Southampton but require regular maintenance and treatment to handle moisture and salt exposure effectively.
The critical factor is matching materials to your specific location and exposure level. Oceanfront properties need different solutions than homes further inland. We evaluate your site’s wind exposure, salt air levels, and architectural requirements to recommend materials that will actually perform long-term in your exact conditions, not just look good initially.
Most Southampton roof replacements take 3-5 days for average-sized homes, though complex rooflines or premium materials may extend the timeline. We schedule projects around Southampton’s seasonal weather patterns, avoiding peak storm seasons when possible and constantly monitoring forecasts during installation.
Coastal installations often take longer than inland projects because we use enhanced techniques for wind resistance and salt air protection. This includes additional fasteners, specialized underlayment systems, and careful attention to flashing details that prevent moisture infiltration – all critical for long-term performance in coastal conditions.
Weather protection is paramount throughout the process. We use heavy-duty tarps and temporary coverings if storms threaten, ensuring your home stays dry and protected during installation. Our goal is completing quality work efficiently while never compromising on the installation details that make roofs last in Southampton’s challenging environment.
Yes, we work directly with insurance companies throughout the storm damage claim process. Our experience with Southampton’s coastal weather means we know how to document damage thoroughly and provide estimates that insurance adjusters understand and approve quickly.
We identify all storm-related damage, not just obvious issues. Coastal storms often cause subtle problems like loosened flashing, compromised seals, or structural stress that creates bigger problems later if not addressed during initial repairs. Our detailed assessments ensure you get proper coverage for complete restoration.
We handle direct communication with your insurance company, meet with adjusters on-site, and manage all paperwork throughout the claim process. You shouldn’t have to fight with insurance companies or accept inadequate repairs when storm damage threatens your home’s protection. Our goal is getting your roof properly restored with full insurance coverage and minimal hassle for you.
Our comprehensive warranties cover both materials and workmanship, with specific provisions for Southampton’s coastal conditions. Material warranties typically range from 25-50 years depending on your roofing system, while our workmanship warranty covers installation quality for up to 10 years.
Southampton properties receive enhanced warranty coverage that specifically includes salt air exposure, wind damage resistance, and moisture protection – issues that standard roofing warranties sometimes exclude. This coastal-specific coverage recognizes the unique challenges your roof faces and ensures you’re protected against them.
We provide detailed maintenance recommendations to maximize your roof’s lifespan and keep warranties valid. This includes periodic inspection schedules, gutter cleaning requirements, and early warning signs to monitor. Proper maintenance extends roof life well beyond warranty periods, and we’re always available to address any concerns that arise during the warranty period.
We manage all permit applications and inspections for Southampton roofing projects, ensuring compliance with local building codes, coastal construction requirements, and any historic district regulations affecting your property. Southampton has specific requirements for coastal construction that many contractors don’t understand.
Our permit process includes proper wind load calculations, moisture protection standards, and structural considerations required for coastal environments. We maintain relationships with local building officials and inspectors, ensuring smooth approval processes and first-time inspection passes.
Proper permits protect your investment and ensure insurance coverage remains valid. Unpermitted work can create serious problems when you sell your home or file insurance claims. We handle all regulatory requirements so you can focus on enjoying your new roof instead of worrying about compliance issues or potential legal problems down the road.
Immediately protect your interior by placing buckets under active leaks and moving valuables away from affected areas. Document everything with photos for insurance purposes, but never attempt roof repairs during storms – it’s extremely dangerous and often makes damage worse.
Call us for emergency service. We provide 24/7 emergency response throughout Southampton and can often provide temporary weatherproofing until permanent repairs are safe to complete. Our emergency team understands coastal storm patterns and prioritizes calls based on safety and damage severity.
After storms pass, we conduct comprehensive inspections to identify all damage, not just obvious leaks. Storm damage often includes loosened flashing, compromised seals, or structural stress that causes problems later if not properly addressed. Complete assessment and proper repairs prevent small issues from becoming major problems during the next storm season.
