We survey before quoting here rather than assuming a type. The detail that matters on any of these houses is the same: where the roof changes plane, where it meets a wall, and where the water is supposed to leave.
Tracing the entry point rather than patching the stain.
Tear-off, deck inspection, and a system specified for the pitch.
Low-slope work on rear extensions, porches and dormers.
Step and counter-flashing rebuilt into the mortar course.
Documented assessment after a nor'easter or a tropical remnant.
New York City requires a DCWP Home Improvement Contractor license for residential roofing. Ask for the number and check it on the DCWP register before work starts.
A like-for-like re-roof on a one- or two-family house generally does not need a DOB permit. Changing the structure, the pitch or the decking layout generally does.
Above a low threshold the work must be under a written contract setting out scope, price and payment schedule. That is the law, not a courtesy.
A New York contractor with employees must carry workers' comp, and on a roof it matters. Ask for the certificate rather than a verbal assurance.
7,667 housing units, 67.4% of them detached single-family, in Tudor, Colonial and Cape Cod styles.
Detached Colonials, Tudors and Capes alongside brick two-family houses, on lots with driveways and porches.
Dutch Colonial and Tudor houses, many still well kept.
Three- to five-bedroom homes with an unusually high share of row and attached houses -- higher than almost any neighborhood in the country.
A mix of detached and attached single-family homes and townhouses.
Older Cape Cods and ranch-style houses alongside newer traditional builds.
One- and two-family houses on their own lots, in every style the period produced.
Active leaks are treated as same-day where daylight and weather allow. Everything else is normally within the week.
Water runs along battens and rafters before it shows. The entry point is usually uphill of the stain and often several feet away, which is why a survey covers the attic as well as the roof.
Diagnosis yes, most permanent repairs no. A temporary cover goes on first and the permanent fix follows.
Yes, and it is written down. Nothing is charged before the scope is agreed.
We are usually on site the same day.
