You get peace of mind. No more buckets catching drips during storms. No more wondering if this winter will be the one that finally destroys your roof.
Your flat roof becomes an asset instead of a liability. With proper TPO or EPDM installation, you’re looking at decades of protection. The right materials mean lower energy bills too – white TPO can drop your roof temperature by 80 degrees on hot summer days.
Most importantly, you get your time back. Time you’ve been spending researching contractors, getting quotes, and dealing with temporary fixes that don’t work.
Twenty-two years in business teaches you what works and what doesn’t. We’ve seen every type of flat roof failure Long Island weather can dish out.
We’re not the cheapest option on Shelter Island, and that’s intentional. Cheap flat roof work fails fast here. The salt air, freeze-thaw cycles, and summer heat destroy inferior materials and sloppy installation.
You’re getting factory-trained installers who understand Long Island’s specific challenges. We’re fully licensed, bonded, and insured because professional work requires professional credentials.
First, we inspect your current roof properly. Not a quick walk-around – a real assessment of drainage, insulation, and structural issues. You’ll know exactly what you’re dealing with before we start.
Next comes material selection. TPO if you want maximum durability and energy efficiency. EPDM if you prefer proven longevity and easier repairs. Modified bitumen for high-traffic commercial applications. We explain the differences so you can decide what makes sense for your situation.
Installation happens fast but right. Complete tear-off if needed, proper insulation, and welded seams that won’t fail. We handle permits, cleanup, and final inspection. You get a warranty that means something because we’ll be here to honor it.

Complete flat roof replacement using TPO, EPDM, or modified bitumen systems. Each material gets installed according to manufacturer specifications with proper insulation and drainage.
Emergency leak repair available 24/7 because flat roof leaks don’t wait for business hours. We carry materials on our trucks to stop leaks immediately, then schedule permanent repairs.
Preventive maintenance keeps small problems from becoming expensive disasters. Regular inspections catch issues at penetrations, drains, and perimeter flashing before they cause interior damage. On Shelter Island, salt air accelerates wear – catching problems early saves thousands.
Properly installed TPO and EPDM systems last 20-30 years in Long Island’s climate. EPDM can reach 50 years with good maintenance. The key is professional installation and addressing small issues before they become major problems.
Shelter Island’s salt air, freeze-thaw cycles, and UV exposure are tough on roofing materials. Cheap installations fail in 5-10 years. Quality materials with proper drainage and sealed penetrations handle our weather much better.
Modified bitumen typically lasts 15-20 years but handles foot traffic better than single-ply systems. Your specific lifespan depends on maintenance, roof traffic, and how well the original installation was done.
TPO is white, reflects heat, and uses heat-welded seams that create permanent bonds. It’s more energy-efficient and costs slightly more than EPDM. The welded seams are stronger but require skilled installation.
EPDM is typically black (though white is available), absorbs heat, and uses adhesive or tape for seams. It’s been proven for decades, costs less, and repairs are simpler. The rubber material is extremely durable in our climate.
For Shelter Island homes, both work well. TPO if energy efficiency is your priority. EPDM if you want maximum longevity at lower cost. We install both systems and can explain which makes more sense for your specific situation.
Complete flat roof replacement typically runs $12-18 per square foot for TPO systems with proper insulation. EPDM costs slightly less. Modified bitumen falls in the middle range.
Your actual cost depends on roof size, access difficulty, insulation requirements, and how much old material needs removal. Larger roofs cost less per square foot. Complex layouts with multiple penetrations cost more.
We provide written estimates that break down materials, labor, and permits. No surprises or change orders unless you request additional work. Most Shelter Island flat roof replacements range from $8,000-$25,000 depending on size and complexity.
Many flat roof leaks can be permanently repaired if caught early. Small membrane tears, failed seams, and penetration leaks often need targeted fixes rather than full replacement.
The key is identifying the real source. Water travels under flat roof membranes, so the leak inside might be far from the actual roof damage. We use thermal imaging and moisture meters to find the exact problem areas.
Complete replacement makes sense when you have multiple leak points, old insulation is saturated, or the membrane is near the end of its useful life. We’ll tell you honestly whether repair or replacement gives you better long-term value.
Yes, we provide 24/7 emergency flat roof repair throughout Shelter Island. Flat roof leaks cause immediate damage to insulation, ceilings, and building contents. Fast response prevents thousands in additional damage.
Emergency repairs focus on stopping water entry immediately. We carry emergency patching materials and can temporarily seal most leaks the same day you call. Permanent repairs get scheduled once we’ve stopped the immediate problem.
Call us any time at 631-772-6363 for emergency service. We respond to urgent calls within hours, not days. Emergency service costs more than scheduled work, but it’s much less expensive than water damage restoration.
Flat roofs need inspection twice yearly – spring and fall. We check drains, remove debris, inspect seams and penetrations, and look for ponding water or membrane damage.
Shelter Island’s salt air requires more frequent cleaning of drains and HVAC equipment. Clogged drains cause ponding that accelerates membrane failure. We also check and re-seal penetrations where salt air causes faster deterioration.
Professional maintenance costs $200-500 annually but prevents expensive emergency repairs. Small issues like loose flashing or minor membrane damage cost hundreds to fix. Ignored problems become thousands in damage. Regular maintenance extends roof life significantly.
