Your flat roof should protect your property, not create headaches. When we’re done, you’ll have a watertight system that handles Long Island’s harsh winters and humid summers without constant repairs.
No more emergency calls about leaks during storms. No more wondering if your roof will hold up through another season. Just reliable protection that lets you focus on what matters most.
Our TPO and EPDM installations come with manufacturer warranties up to 30 years. That’s real peace of mind, backed by proper certifications and decades of experience in Suffolk County.
We’ve been serving Squassux Landing and Suffolk County for years, specializing in flat roofing systems that most contractors won’t touch. We’re GAF certified, properly insured, and equipped with precision welding technology that ensures your seams won’t fail.
Most residential roofers lack the insurance and expertise for advanced flat roofing materials like TPO and modified bitumen. We’re not most roofers. Our team handles molecular welding installations that create permanent, watertight bonds.
Long Island’s weather demands expertise. From freezing winters to humid summers, we understand what your flat roof faces and how to build protection that lasts.
First, we inspect your existing roof structure and identify any underlying issues. No surprises later – you’ll know exactly what needs attention before we start.
Next comes proper preparation. We ensure the substrate is clean and uniform because even the best materials fail without proper foundation work. This step separates professional installations from quick fixes.
Then we install your chosen system – TPO, EPDM, or modified bitumen – using heat welding or molecular bonding techniques. Our precision equipment creates seams that won’t separate over time. Every penetration gets properly flashed and sealed.
Final inspection covers drainage, edge details, and all connection points. We test the system and provide you with warranty documentation and maintenance recommendations.

TPO roofing offers excellent energy efficiency with its reflective white surface, reducing cooling costs during Long Island’s hot summers. It’s flexible enough to handle temperature swings and comes with 15-30 year warranties. Perfect for commercial buildings and larger residential applications.
EPDM rubber roofing provides proven durability, lasting 20+ years with minimal maintenance. It comes in large sheets that minimize seams – fewer potential leak points. The synthetic rubber handles extreme temperatures without cracking or splitting.
Modified bitumen combines traditional reliability with modern polymer technology. Multiple layers provide extra protection, though installation requires experienced contractors due to torch application requirements.
Each system has specific advantages depending on your building’s needs, traffic requirements, and budget. We’ll recommend the best option based on your actual situation, not what’s easiest for us to install.
Quality flat roofing systems typically last 20-30 years in Long Island’s climate when properly installed and maintained. TPO and EPDM handle our temperature extremes well – from below-freezing winters to hot, humid summers.
The key is professional installation with proper drainage and edge details. Many flat roof failures happen at seams, penetrations, or perimeter areas where water can infiltrate. Our molecular welding techniques create permanent bonds that don’t separate over time.
Regular maintenance extends lifespan significantly. We recommend annual inspections to catch small issues before they become major problems.
TPO is a white, energy-efficient membrane that reflects sunlight and reduces cooling costs. It’s heat-welded at seams for permanent bonds and typically costs more upfront but offers better energy performance.
EPDM is black synthetic rubber that’s been proven for over 60 years. It’s extremely durable and flexible, coming in larger sheets that minimize seam count. EPDM costs less initially but absorbs more heat.
Both materials handle Long Island weather well. TPO works better for energy efficiency and commercial applications. EPDM excels for durability and residential flat roofs. Your building’s specific needs determine the best choice.
Penetrations cause 50% of commercial flat roof leaks, so proper flashing and sealing are critical. We use specialized techniques for each type of penetration – HVAC units, vents, drains, and access panels.
First, we create proper drainage around equipment to prevent water pooling. Then we install multi-layer flashing systems that move with temperature changes without breaking the seal. All seams get welded or bonded using manufacturer-approved methods.
HVAC maintenance is crucial too. When technicians service equipment, they often damage roof membranes. We provide protective walkways and coordinate with your HVAC contractor to prevent accidental damage.
Sometimes, but it depends on your current roof’s condition and local building codes. Suffolk County allows up to two layers of roofing in most cases. If you already have two layers, complete removal is required.
We thoroughly inspect existing systems first. The substrate must be sound, properly attached, and free from significant moisture damage. Any soft spots, extensive deterioration, or structural issues require tear-off to the deck.
Installing over existing roofing saves on disposal costs and reduces project time when conditions allow. However, we never compromise long-term performance for short-term savings. If tear-off is needed, we’ll explain exactly why.
Annual professional inspections catch problems early, especially after Long Island’s winter freeze-thaw cycles. We check all seams, penetrations, drainage areas, and edge details for signs of wear or damage.
Keep drains and gutters clear of debris. Clogged drainage causes water backup that can damage even the best roofing systems. Remove snow loads that exceed your roof’s capacity, particularly wet, heavy snow.
Address small issues immediately. A minor seam separation or loose flashing becomes a major leak if ignored. Most flat roof problems are inexpensive to fix when caught early but costly when water damage occurs.
Complete flat roof replacement typically ranges from $9-20 per square foot depending on material choice, roof size, access difficulty, and structural requirements. TPO systems cost more than EPDM initially but offer better energy efficiency.
Roof coatings and restoration can extend existing roof life for $5-8 per square foot when the structure is sound. This option works well for roofs with minor issues that don’t require complete replacement.
We provide detailed estimates after inspecting your specific situation. Factors like height, complexity, disposal requirements, and permit costs all affect final pricing. No surprises – you’ll know exactly what’s included before work begins.
