What Nassau County Homeowners Say
Real reviews from Long Island homeowners.
“We've had ice dam problems every winter since we bought our Cape Cod. They didn't just fix the roof — they improved our attic ventilation and insulation. First winter with no ice dams in 10 years.”
“Our split-level has four different roof planes and nobody wanted to give us a straight answer on cost. These guys walked us through each section, explained the valleys and transitions, and priced it fairly.”
“They replaced our entire roof in one day. The crew showed up at 7:30 AM sharp and by 3:30 PM they were sweeping the yard with magnets for stray nails. Couldn't believe how fast and clean they were.”
“After the nor'easter damaged our roof, three different companies knocked on our door. Long Island Roofing Pros was the only one that didn't pressure us. They documented everything, helped with our insurance claim, and did the repair right.”
“We got four quotes for our colonial's roof replacement. Long Island Roofing Pros was the only company whose estimate included a line-by-line breakdown of materials, labor, and permit costs. No surprises on the final bill.”
“Our 1952 Cape Cod in Levittown needed a full tear-off. They found rotted decking that three other roofers missed during their inspections. Honest, thorough, and fair price.”

Roof Replacement FAQ — Plainview
Answers to common questions from Long Island homeowners.
Most Long Island homeowners pay between $9,000 and $18,000 for an asphalt shingle roof replacement. The exact cost depends on roof size, material choice, pitch complexity, and your town's permit fees. Long Island pricing runs 15-25% above the national average due to higher labor rates and material delivery costs.
Yes. Both Nassau and Suffolk counties require building permits for full roof replacements, tear-offs, and structural modifications. In Nassau, permits are handled by your town (Hempstead, North Hempstead, or Oyster Bay). In Suffolk, each of the 10 towns has its own building department. Minor repairs (a few shingles) are generally exempt.
Asphalt shingle roofs typically last 15-25 years on Long Island — shorter than the national average of 20-30 years due to salt air exposure, nor'easter winds, and freeze-thaw cycles. Metal roofs can last 40-70 years. Slate roofs on older North Shore homes can last 75-100+ years with proper maintenance.
Insurance typically covers roof damage caused by sudden events like storms, fallen trees, or fire — but not normal wear and aging. After storm damage, document everything with photos before making temporary repairs, then file your claim promptly. We help Long Island homeowners navigate the insurance claim process.
For most Long Island homes, architectural asphalt shingles offer the best balance of cost, durability, and wind resistance. For coastal homes (South Shore, Hamptons), metal roofing handles salt air and high winds better. Premium options like CertainTeed, GAF, and Owens Corning are all excellent choices rated for Long Island's climate zone.
Verify their Nassau or Suffolk County HIC license, check for workers' comp and general liability insurance ($500K+ minimum), look for manufacturer certifications (GAF, Owens Corning), read recent reviews (Google, HomeAdvisor), get 3 written estimates, and confirm they pull permits. Avoid door-to-door storm chasers.
