Roof replacement and roof repair in Selden, NY

Our shop is at 70 Riviera Drive, so Selden is home. L.I. Taylor Construction is a GAF Master Elite® roofing company, licensed and insured, and Selden's ranches, capes and high ranches are the roofs we know best. Neighbors in Coram, Farmingville, Centereach and Medford call the same number.

What we do in Selden

Because we are local, a Selden estimate is usually the same day or the next. 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.

Roof replacement, roof repair and leak repair in Selden

Looking for a roofer in Selden? Our shop is on Riviera Drive. Here is how each job works.

Roof replacement in Selden

A roof replacement starts with a full tear-off to the deck, so the plywood can be inspected. Ice-and-water shield goes on the eaves and in the valleys, then new flashing, pipe boots, GAF architectural shingles and a ridge vent. Most Selden homes are finished in one working day, weather permitting. The steps are on our asphalt shingle roofing page.

Roof repair in Selden

Missing or lifted shingles, a cracked pipe boot and failed chimney flashing are repairs, not new roofs. We price a roof repair in writing, the same as a replacement, and use matching GAF materials where the roof qualifies.

Roof leak repair in Selden

Water travels, so the stain on the ceiling is often several feet from where it gets in. We trace a leak from the attic and from the roof, then fix the entry point. If water is coming in now, call 631-404-9022 and say it is a leak. See emergency roof repair.

What Selden roofs usually need

Houses from the 1950s to the 1970s

Most of Selden went up in the decades after the war, off Middle Country Road and Boyle Road. Many of those houses are on their second or third roof, and two layers of shingles over tired plywood is common. We tear off to the deck, and rotted plywood is replaced per sheet at a price that is written into the estimate.

Repair or replace

A leak at a pipe boot, a chimney or a skylight on a younger roof is usually a repair, and we price it as one. Curling shingles, granules in the gutters and a roof past 20 years point to replacement. You get our answer in writing.

Low-slope sections

High ranches and extended capes here often have a low-slope stretch over a rear dormer or an addition. Shingles leak when the pitch is too shallow, so those sections get a flat-roof membrane tied into the shingles above.

Permits and the town

Selden is in the Town of Brookhaven, ZIP 11784. Where the work requires a permit, we pull it and it is included in the price.

Yes. Selden is in Suffolk County, and we hold Suffolk County Home Improvement License HI-64134, along with Nassau County and New York City licenses. We are fully insured and GAF Master Elite certified, which fewer than 3% of roofing contractors nationwide can say.

Reviews from across Long Island

Dave was prompt, reliable, affordable and the work was perfect. I had a shed roof installed and the next day e had a torrential rain and wind storm that tested his work. Shed rood was in tact and the shed was bone dry. I would recommend LI Taylor Construction for any of your construction needs.
I had a fantastic experience with David who owns the company. They arrived right on time, quickly found the source of my roof leak, and explained the repair process clearly. The work was done efficiently at a fair price, and they left my yard completely clean of debris. Highly recommended!
