Why homeowners choose us

The difference shows up in year eight, not week one.

Any crew can make a roof look good on install day. The question is what happens after eight winters of ice dams, four hurricanes off the Atlantic, and a decade of salt air. That's the standard we build to.

  • We fix the cause, not the symptom. A ceiling stain is rarely the shingles. We trace it to the flashing, valley or chimney it actually came from.
  • One written price, line by line. You see the materials, the tear-off depth, and what happens if we find rotted decking — before we start, not after.
  • Our own crews, never day labor. The people who quote your job are the people on your roof, wearing our shirts.
  • Your yard, back the way you left it. Tarped landscaping, magnetic nail sweep, dumpster gone the day we finish.

How it works

Four steps. No mystery, no moving target.

You'll know what's happening, what it costs, and when it's done — from the first phone call to the final nail sweep.

  1. Free on-site inspection

    We climb it, photograph it, and check the attic. You get pictures of what we found — including the parts you can't see from the ground.

    Day 1 · 45 minutes
  2. A written, itemized estimate

    Materials, labor, tear-off, disposal, permits, and a clear per-sheet price if we find rotted decking. One number, no bait pricing.

    Within 48 hours
  3. Scheduling and prep

    We pull permits, order material to your address, and confirm a start date. Landscaping gets tarped and windows covered before anything comes off.

    Typically 1–3 weeks out
  4. Install, clean-up, walkthrough

    Crew on site by 7am. We magnet-sweep the property, haul the dumpster, and walk the job with you before we ask for final payment.

    Most roofs: 1–2 days

Before & after

The same house, eleven working hours apart.

Curled shingles, moss in the north valley, and a chimney flashing that had been caulked over three times. Here's the tear-off and the rebuild.

Before Before: worn asphalt roof with curling shingles and moss growth in the valley
After After: new architectural shingle roof with clean valley and step flashing

Levittown colonial — Full tear-off to the deck, 9 sheets of plywood replaced, ice-and-water shield in all valleys, new step flashing at the chimney. Completed in one day.

Before Before: faded, cracked siding with visible water staining under the eaves
After After: new fiber cement siding with crisp trim and new seamless gutters

Huntington cape — Siding removed to the sheathing, two sections of rotted sheathing replaced, new house wrap taped and flashed, fiber cement installed with new 6" gutters.

Homeowner reviews

What your neighbors say after the crew leaves.

Every review below came from a Long Island homeowner who paid a real invoice. Names are on file with the job numbers.

"Three roofers told me I needed a full replacement. Cape found a failed chimney flashing, fixed it for a fraction of the price, and told me my roof had eight good years left. That honesty is why they're doing my siding next spring."
Portrait of Michael R., homeowner in Massapequa Michael R. Massapequa, Nassau County
"They started at 7am and my new roof was done, cleaned up and inspected by 6pm the same day. I found exactly one nail in the driveway. The written estimate matched the final invoice to the dollar."
Portrait of Dana K., homeowner in Huntington Dana K. Huntington, Suffolk County
"After the last nor'easter half my block was waiting two weeks for a callback. Cape had a tarp on my roof the next morning and the permanent repair done that same week. They didn't gouge me on the emergency either."

Common questions

The things Long Island homeowners actually ask us.

If your question isn't here, call us at (631) 767-0707. We'd rather answer it before you commit to anything.

How much does a roof replacement cost on Long Island?

Most full asphalt roof replacements on a typical Long Island cape or colonial land between $12,000 and $28,000, depending on square footage, pitch, the number of layers being torn off, and how much decking needs replacing. Cedar and standing-seam metal run higher. We give you a firm written number after we've been on the roof — never a phone quote.

Do I need a full replacement, or can it be repaired?

If your roof is under 15 years old and the damage is localized — one valley, one flashing, a few blown-off shingles — a repair usually makes sense. Once you're seeing granule loss across the whole surface, curling at the edges, or you're on a second layer already, replacement is the better dollar. We'll tell you which one you're in, even when the repair is the smaller invoice for us.

Are you licensed and insured in Nassau and Suffolk?

Yes — home improvement licensed in both Nassau and Suffolk County, with general liability and workers' compensation coverage. We hand you copies of both certificates with your estimate, without being asked. If a contractor won't do that, don't let them on your roof.

How long does a roof take, and do I need to leave the house?

Most single-family roofs are a one-day job; larger or steeper homes run two. You don't need to leave, but it is loud, so plan around naps and remote meetings. We ask that you move cars out of the driveway and take fragile items off the walls in the attic and top floor.

Will you work with my insurance company on storm damage?

We do this constantly after nor'easters. We document the damage with dated photos, provide an itemized scope that adjusters accept, and meet the adjuster on site if you'd like us there. We won't, however, tell you to file a claim for wear-and-tear that isn't storm damage.

What does your warranty actually cover?

The manufacturer covers the shingles themselves — typically 30–50 years, depending on the product you pick. The exact term varies by product, so we go through your specific coverage with you before you sign.
