Your roof isn’t leaking during the next coastal storm. You’re not scrambling for emergency tarps when nor’easters roll through. Your energy bills actually went down because your new roof works with your HVAC system, not against it.
You sleep better knowing your roof was installed by contractors who understand what Wantagh weather does to roofing materials. No more wondering if those shingles will hold when the next hurricane-force winds hit Jones Beach and move inland.
That peace of mind? It’s what happens when your roofing is handled right the first time.
Expressway Roofing and Chimney Inc has been protecting Nassau County homes through every storm season, every coastal weather pattern, every challenge that comes with living this close to the water.
We’re not just another roofing company. We’re the team that understands what salt air does to flashing, how Long Island humidity affects your attic, and why your roof needs different materials than homes fifty miles inland.
When your neighbors needed storm damage repairs after the last big weather event, we were there. When they wanted roof replacements that could handle whatever comes next, we delivered.
First, we inspect your current roof and assess what you’re working with. We look for storm damage, wear patterns, and potential problems that could affect your new installation. You get a detailed report of what we find.
Next, we provide a transparent estimate that covers materials, labor, disposal, and any extras your roof needs. No surprise costs later. We explain what materials work best for Wantagh’s coastal climate and why.
Installation day, we protect your property, remove old materials properly, and install your new roof using techniques designed for Long Island weather conditions. We clean up completely and walk you through your new roof’s features and warranty coverage.

For Wantagh homeowners, this means working with contractors who know that your roof faces different challenges than homes in other parts of New York. Salt air, coastal storms, and humidity levels that can cause problems if your roof isn’t designed and installed correctly. We build for your specific conditions, not generic standards.
Most complete roof replacements in Wantagh run between $8,000 and $15,000, depending on your roof size, materials chosen, and project complexity. Asphalt shingle installations typically cost $5.20 to $8.90 per square foot.
Several factors affect your final cost. Roof size is the biggest driver—larger roofs need more materials and labor. Steep pitches require extra safety equipment and time. The type of materials you choose makes a significant difference too.
We provide detailed estimates that break down materials, labor, disposal, and any extras your roof needs. This way, you know exactly what you’re paying for before we start work.
Asphalt shingles remain the most popular choice for Wantagh homes, but not all asphalt shingles handle coastal conditions equally. We recommend architectural shingles over basic three-tab options because they offer better wind resistance and durability.
Metal roofing performs exceptionally well in coastal areas. It resists salt air corrosion better than other materials and can withstand high winds from coastal storms. The initial cost is higher, but metal roofs can last 50+ years with proper maintenance.
For any material you choose, proper installation matters more than the material itself. We use installation techniques specifically designed for Long Island’s coastal climate, including enhanced fastening patterns and wind-resistant underlayment.

We also inspect gutters, downspouts, and attic ventilation. In coastal areas like Wantagh, proper ventilation prevents moisture buildup that can cause mold and structural problems. We look for signs of salt air corrosion on metal components.
You receive a detailed report of our findings, including photos of any issues we discover. We prioritize problems by urgency and cost, so you can make informed decisions about repairs and timing.
