Roof Installation in Staten Island, NYC, and New Jersey

Christian Construction installs all major types of residential and commercial roofing materials. The right choice depends on your budget, the style of your home, the pitch of your roof, and how long you plan to stay in the property.

Asphalt shingles are the most common roofing material in Staten Island and NYC. They’re affordable, durable, and come in a wide range of colors and styles. Three-tab shingles are the most budget-friendly option with a lifespan of 20 to 25 years. Architectural shingles cost more but last 30 to 40 years and provide better wind resistance and curb appeal.

We install Owens Corning and CertainTeed shingles, both of which are top-tier manufacturers with excellent warranties. As an Owens Corning Platinum Preferred Contractor, we can offer extended warranty coverage that other contractors can’t provide.

For flat or low-slope roofs, we install EPDM rubber roofing and TPO roofing. EPDM is a durable, weather-resistant material that performs well in cold climates. TPO is energy-efficient, reflective, and popular for commercial buildings.

We also install simulated slate roofing for homeowners who want the look of slate without the weight or cost. Simulated slate shingles are lighter, easier to install, and less expensive than real slate while still providing an upscale appearance.

If you’re not sure which roofing material is right for your home, we’ll walk you through the options during your estimate. We’ll explain the pros and cons of each material, show you samples, and help you choose based on your priorities.

The Roof Installation Process

Roof installation is a multi-day project that involves removing your old roof, inspecting and repairing the roof deck, and installing a complete new roofing system.

We start with a thorough inspection and estimate. Our team examines your existing roof, measures the square footage, assesses the condition of the decking, and identifies any structural issues that need to be addressed. We provide a detailed written estimate that breaks down material costs, labor, permits, and disposal fees.

Once you approve the estimate, we schedule the installation. Most residential roof installations take 2 to 5 days depending on the size of the roof, the complexity of the structure, and weather conditions.

On installation day, we protect your property by covering landscaping, moving outdoor furniture, and setting up tarps to catch debris. We place a dumpster on site for old roofing materials.

The first step is tearing off the old roof. Our crew removes all existing shingles, underlayment, and flashing down to the bare roof deck. This allows us to inspect the decking for rot, water damage, or structural issues.

If we find damaged decking, we replace it before installing the new roof. Skipping this step is a common mistake that leads to problems down the road. We don’t cut corners even if it means additional costs — if your decking needs replacement, we tell you upfront and explain why it matters.

After the decking is repaired, we install new underlayment, which is a water-resistant barrier that protects the deck from moisture. We use high-quality synthetic underlayment that outperforms traditional felt paper.

Next, we install drip edge, flashing, and ice and water shield in vulnerable areas like valleys, chimneys, and roof penetrations. Proper flashing installation is critical for preventing leaks.

Then we install the new shingles, starting at the bottom edge of the roof and working our way up. Shingles are laid in overlapping rows with proper nailing patterns to ensure wind resistance.

We install ridge vents to provide proper attic ventilation, which extends the life of your roof and improves energy efficiency. We also install new pipe boots, chimney flashing, and any other roof penetrations.

Finally, we complete a thorough cleanup. We use magnets to pick up stray nails, haul away all debris, and inspect the property to make sure nothing was missed. Your yard should look better after we’re done than it did before we started.

Roof Installation Cost in Staten Island and NYC

Roof installation cost varies based on the size of your roof, the materials you choose, the complexity of the installation, and the condition of your existing roof deck.

As a general guideline, asphalt shingle roof installation starts around $4,999 for small roofs and ranges from $8,000 to $20,000+ for average-sized homes in Staten Island. Larger homes, complex roof designs, and premium materials increase the cost.

Christian Construction provides transparent pricing with detailed written estimates. We break down material costs, labor, disposal fees, and any additional work like decking replacement or chimney flashing so you know exactly what you’re paying for.

We don’t play pricing games. If we find issues during installation that weren’t visible during the initial inspection — like rotted decking or structural damage — we discuss the additional work with you before proceeding. You won’t get surprise charges at the end of the project.

Our pricing is competitive because we don’t use subcontractors. We’re often able to beat budget competitors while using better materials and providing superior workmanship.

Roof Installation and Other Exterior Services

Many homeowners choose to combine roof installation with other exterior improvements. If you’re already investing in a new roof, it’s often the right time to address siding, gutters, or windows.

• Siding installation pairs well with roofing work because the crews can coordinate to avoid damaging new materials. If your siding is old or damaged, replacing both the roof and siding at the same time creates a cohesive look and protects your home’s exterior completely.
• Gutter installation or replacement is another common addition to roof installation projects. Old gutters often need to be removed during roof installation anyway, so it’s an efficient time to upgrade to new seamless gutters.
• Window replacement can also be coordinated with roofing work. If you’re replacing windows and the roof, the installation crews can work around each other more efficiently than scheduling separate projects months apart.

Because Christian Construction handles all of these services in-house, we can provide bundled pricing and coordinate schedules to minimize disruption to your home.
