Roofing contractor in Port Jefferson, NY

Port Jefferson is a harbor village on the North Shore, about 6 miles north of our shop in Selden. L.I. Taylor Construction is a GAF Master Elite® roofing company, licensed in Suffolk County. The home on this page got its new roof from us in October 2026. We cover nearby Miller Place, Stony Brook, Selden and Coram from the same shop.

What we do in Port Jefferson

Selden is 6 miles away, so a Port Jefferson estimate usually happens within a day or two of your call. The home pictured is one of ours in Port Jefferson: a full tear-off and a new GAF architectural shingle roof, finished in October 2026. 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.

Roofing in Port Jefferson: our work and the village

A new roof over the house and the porch, October 2026

The home pictured has two front dormers, a side gable and a low porch roof across the front. Each dormer adds valleys and sidewall flashing, and the porch roof meets the wall below the second floor, which is another place water can get in. Full tear-off, new flashing, ice-and-water shield in the valleys and a new black GAF architectural shingle roof, by our own crew.

The village has its own building department

Port Jefferson, ZIP 11777, is an incorporated village inside the Town of Brookhaven. It has its own Building and Planning Department, and its permit rules can differ from the town's. Port Jefferson Station, to the south, is not part of the village and falls under Brookhaven. We confirm which office covers your address and pull the permit where one is required.

Houses from the shipbuilding years

Port Jefferson was the largest shipbuilding center in Suffolk County in the mid-1800s, and many houses near the harbor date from that period. The Port Jefferson Village Historic District is on the National Register of Historic Places. Older roofs here tend to be steep, with dormers and brick chimneys, so flashing takes as much care as the shingles. If your house is in or near the historic district, ask the village whether architectural review applies before choosing a color or material.

Wind off the harbor and the Sound

Homes on the hills above the harbor, such as Harbor Hills and Brick Hill, are open to wind from Long Island Sound. Nor'easters lift shingles at the ridge and the rakes first. We repair storm damage when the rest of the roof is sound. For an active leak, see emergency roof repair.

Reviews from across Long Island

Great experience from start to finish. Was the most affordable after many quotes and the roofing crew was professional, respectful, and did a great job on my house. Everything was cleaned up when they were done, and the roof looks great. Would definitely recommend them!
I hired LI Taylor Construction to replace my roof and I couldn't be happier! From start to finish, they were professional, thorough, and took the time to explain every step of the process. Their pricing was very competitive, and they backed their work with a comprehensive warranty, which gave us great peace of mind. The quality of the workmanship exceeded our expectations, and the entire project was completed efficiently and with great attention to detail. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, honest, and skilled roofing contractor.
