What we do in Brentwood

Selden is 12 miles away, so a Brentwood estimate usually happens within a day or two of your call. Repairs get the same free written estimate as a full replacement, and after storm damage we photograph everything and write a scope you can hand to your insurance adjuster. Every roof is installed to GAF's specification, which is what keeps the manufacturer's warranty valid. Our own crew does the work, and every call about your job goes straight to David, the owner.

What Brentwood roofs usually need

Postwar capes and ranches

Most of Brentwood was built out from the 1950s through the 1970s, with capes and ranches first and split-levels and colonials later. A house that age has usually had more than one roof. If yours has two layers of shingles, both come off so the deck can be checked before the new roof goes on.

Heat and ventilation in a cape

A cape with finished rooms upstairs has very little attic, so heat and moisture collect under the roof deck. That shortens shingle life and feeds ice dams in winter. When we re-roof a cape we look at intake at the soffits and exhaust at the ridge, and add ice and water barrier along the eaves.

Stores, shops and flat roofs

Brentwood also has a lot of commercial property, including the storefronts along Suffolk Avenue near the train station. Most of those buildings have flat or low-slope roofs that need a membrane, not shingles. See flat roofing and commercial roofing for how we handle them.

Town of Islip permits

Brentwood is a hamlet, not a village, so building permits go through the Town of Islip. The ZIP code is 11717. Where the work requires a permit, we pull it and it is included in the price.

Brentwood roofing questions

My Brentwood roof already has two layers. What happens?

Both layers come off. A tear-off is the only way to see the plywood, and any soft or rotted sheets are replaced before new underlayment and shingles go on. The written estimate spells out how deck replacement is priced.

Do you do commercial roofs in Brentwood?

Yes. Our own in-house crew installs and repairs flat and low-slope roofs on stores, offices and multi-unit buildings, as well as shingle roofs on houses.

What warranty comes with a new roof?

We install the highest-quality GAF roofing systems, backed by warranties of up to 50 years. As a Master Elite contractor we can offer GAF's enhanced warranties on qualifying roofs.
