Metal roofs, shingle roofs and honest repairs for Southfields, NY homeowners. Family owned since 2002, and estimates are always free.
Everything we do on a roof, done by crews who have been doing it the same careful way since 2002.
Water runs along decking and rafters before it ever drips, so the stain is rarely under the hole. We trace the leak back to where it really starts and fix that.
A careful walk over the whole roof — panels, shingles, valleys, flashing, fasteners — plus the attic side when there is a way in. You get photos and a straight answer.
Backed out screws, split washers, rust starting at a seam, a panel lifted at the eave. These are our roofs, and most of the time a repair is all it takes.
Old skylights leak at the flashing long before the glass ever fails. We reflash, reseal, or set a new unit and tie it in properly.
A metal roof is the one that outlives the mortgage. We install exposed fastener panels and standing seam over solid decking and real underlayment, with around twenty standard colors to choose from.
Squirrels, wasps and water all treat a soft soffit as a front door. We close it up properly instead of patching over it.
When a roof is genuinely finished we replace it, and we say so plainly rather than dressing it up. Metal and shingle priced side by side so you can compare real numbers.
Temporary cover goes on fast, then we come back and make the permanent repair once we can see properly what we are working with.
A coating buys real years on the right roof and wastes money on the wrong one. We will tell you honestly which kind you are looking at.
Steam and hand work, never a hammer and chisel on your roof. Then we check the eaves for the damage the ice already did.
Most roofs somebody has called a lost cause are not one. We repair what can be repaired, and we tell you honestly when a repair will no longer hold.
Not every hailstorm ruins a roof. We look before we tell you anything, and if the damage is only cosmetic we will say that too.
Hard wind lifts shingles and works panel fasteners loose along the edges, which is exactly where the next storm gets underneath. We refasten, replace and reseal.
From a few tabs to a whole slope, we fix shingle roofs without pushing you toward a replacement you are not ready for.
After a storm we walk the roof, photograph everything we find, and write an itemized estimate you can hand straight to your adjuster.
Porch roofs, additions and low slope sections that hold water instead of shedding it. We rework the flashing, seal the seams, and get water moving again.
Guards and screens so you are not up a ladder every fall digging pine needles out of the gutter by hand.
We work around your hours, weekends included when that is what it takes to keep your doors open while the roof goes on.
Careful footwork, matched materials, and flashing done the way it was done when the roof went on.
Waterproofing details on additions, porches and low slope tie ins, where two roofs meet and most leaks quietly begin.
Metal is what we are known for. Since 2002 the bulk of our work has been standing seam and metal panel roofs, and it is still what most Southfields homeowners call us about. We measure on site, help you settle on a color, and set the panels straight.
We do shingle roofs too, and plenty of them. But if you have been thinking about a tin roof on your Southfields home, that is the conversation we enjoy most — panel type, color, trim, and what it is really going to cost.
Why people around Southfields call us back and send their neighbors our way.
The same family started this company putting metal roofs on neighbors houses in 2002. It has never been sold, franchised or handed off to a call center.
Somebody comes out, measures, gets on the roof, and leaves you a written price. No charge, no obligation, and no number that expires if you do not sign today.
Around twenty standard metal colors, and the chart comes out with the estimate so you can hold it up against your siding and shutters before you commit.
A few backed out screws or a whole roof off a church — we take both. No job is too small to get the same crew and the same care.
You get a start date and we hold to it. If weather moves your job we call you, rather than leaving you watching the driveway.
Straight answers to what Southfields homeowners ask us most often.
Much less than people expect. Over solid decking with underlayment under it, a Southfields metal roof sounds about like a shingle roof from inside the house. The loud tin roof people remember was screwed straight to open purlins over a barn with nothing underneath.
Sometimes. If the decking is sound and there is only one layer of shingles, a Southfields metal roof can go over the top on purlins. If there is rot underneath or two layers already on, we tear off first — and we will tell you that before you sign, not halfway through.
A typical Southfields shingle roof runs roughly $8,000 to $18,000 in 2026 for an average single family home, and more if the deck has rot or the roof is steep and cut up with dormers. We do not price off a satellite photo — somebody comes out and measures.
That is most of what leak work is. Water runs along decking and rafters before it ever drips, so the stain on your Southfields ceiling is rarely under the actual hole. We work back to the real entry point, fix that, and check the rest of the roof while we are up there.
Often, yes. Plenty of the Southfields roofs we get called to look at need flashing reworked or a section refastened, not a whole new roof. We will tell you honestly which one you are looking at, and if it is repairable we would rather repair it.
Yes. Gutters, guards, soffit and fascia are all part of keeping the edge of a Southfields roof dry, so we handle them along with the roof instead of sending you off to find somebody else to finish the job.
