Here's How We Handle Your Project

First, we inspect your current roof and give you a detailed estimate. No vague numbers or surprise costs later – you know exactly what you’re paying for and why.

Once you approve the estimate, we order materials and schedule the work around your timeline. We protect your landscaping, set up proper safety equipment, and remove the old roofing system down to the decking. If we find any structural issues, we address them before installing the new roof.

Installation follows manufacturer specifications exactly. Proper underlayment, correct fastening patterns, adequate ventilation – the details that determine whether your roof lasts 15 years or 30. We clean up completely each day and do a final inspection with you before considering the job finished.

Everything Included In Your Replacement

You get complete tear-off and disposal of your old roofing system. We don’t cut corners by roofing over existing problems – that just creates bigger issues later.

New underlayment, flashing, and ventilation systems come standard. These components are critical for Long Island homes where ice dams and wind-driven rain are common problems. Proper ventilation also prevents moisture buildup that can rot your roof decking from the inside.

We handle all permits and inspections required by Huntington building codes. Your project stays compliant, which protects your insurance coverage and avoids problems when you sell your home. The job site stays clean and organized throughout the project – no nails in your driveway or debris scattered across your yard.

Roof replacement costs in Huntington typically range from $12,000 to $25,000 for most homes, depending on size, materials, and complexity. Factors affecting price include roof pitch, number of penetrations like chimneys and skylights, and material choice. Asphalt shingles cost less upfront but may need replacement sooner in our climate. Metal and architectural shingles cost more initially but often provide better long-term value. We provide detailed estimates that break down all costs so you understand exactly what you’re paying for.
Most residential roof replacements in Huntington take 2-4 days depending on size and weather conditions. Simple ranch homes often finish in 2 days, while larger two-story homes with complex rooflines may take 4-5 days. Weather delays are common during Long Island winters and spring storms. We schedule projects with buffer time and keep you updated on any changes. The actual installation moves quickly once we start – most of the timeline involves material delivery, permits, and final inspections.
Architectural shingles perform well in Long Island’s climate because they resist wind uplift and handle freeze-thaw cycles better than basic three-tab shingles. Metal roofing excels in coastal areas where salt air accelerates deterioration of other materials. For Huntington specifically, we recommend materials rated for high wind speeds and impact resistance. Proper underlayment is crucial – we use synthetic materials that won’t tear or deteriorate if exposed to weather during installation. The key is matching materials to your specific exposure and budget requirements.
Yes, Huntington requires building permits for complete roof replacements. The permit process typically takes 1-2 weeks and costs around $200-400 depending on your home’s value. We handle the permit application, required drawings, and coordinate inspections with the building department. This protects you legally and ensures the work meets current building codes. Some homeowners try to skip permits to save money, but this creates problems with insurance claims and home sales later. Proper permits are always worth the small additional cost.
Complete replacement makes sense when your roof is over 20 years old, has multiple leak areas, or shows widespread shingle deterioration. If you’re replacing more than 30% of the roof surface, full replacement often costs less than extensive repairs. Missing granules, curling shingles, and multiple layers of existing roofing are clear indicators for replacement. We inspect the decking condition too – if the structural components are compromised, repairs won’t solve the underlying problem. A professional inspection gives you the real picture of repair versus replacement costs.
You get two types of warranty coverage: manufacturer warranty on materials and our labor warranty on installation. Material warranties typically range from 25-50 years depending on the product chosen. Our labor warranty covers installation defects for 5 years minimum. The key is proper installation – manufacturer warranties become void if installation doesn’t meet their specifications. We follow all manufacturer requirements exactly, which keeps your warranty intact. Keep all warranty documentation with your home records, and contact us first if any issues develop within the warranty period.
