"Joseph and his team removed our old roof and replaced the entire roof. They did an excellent job in a timely matter, even though it was hard to access our roof because of awnings. Excellent service and communication. Roof looks great, awesome job, highly recommended."

"We used NY Roofing for a roof drain issue at our building in Manhattan. Water wasn?t draining the way it should and was starting to sit around the drain after heavier rain, so we wanted to get it looked at before it caused a bigger problem. They explained what needed to be repaired and were pretty straightforward about the whole thing. The crew worked on the drain and surrounding area and made sure the water was actually flowing properly before they wrapped up. What I liked was that this wasn?t turned into some huge project when it didn?t need to be. Communication was good, the guys working were easy to deal with, and they cleaned up after themselves. We?ve had rain since the repair and the water is draining much better now instead of collecting in that area. It was a good experience with NY Roofing. Roof drainage problems can turn into something much worse if they?re ignored, so I?m gla"

Roofing questions, answered by experts

Shingle roofing can last anywhere from 15 to 50 years, depending on the type and quality of shingle, your local climate, and how well you maintain your roof. If you live in an area that sees extreme weather, like strong winds, hail storms, or hurricanes, the average life span of a shingle roof will often be on the shorter end, especially if you choose a more affordable roof shingle that isn’t designed to persist through extreme weather.

A roof's lifespan can range from 15 to 200 years, with an average of 25 to 50 years, depending heavily on the material, quality of installation, maintenance, and local climate. Asphalt shingle roofs are common and typically last 15 to 30 years; three-tab shingles have a lifespan of about 20 years, while architectural shingles can last up to 30. More durable materials have longer lifespans: metal roofs last 30 to 100 years, clay and concrete can last 50 to 100 years, and slate roofs can last up to 200 years with proper care. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning gutters and replacing damaged shingles, is crucial for extending the life of any roof.

Yes, shingles should overhang the drip edge, typically between 1/2-inch and 3/4-inch. An overhang shorter than 1/2-inch can allow wind-driven rain to get under the shingles and damage the roof deck or fascia. Conversely, an overhang longer than 3/4-inch increases the risk of shingles getting caught by strong winds, which can lead to roof uplift. Always check your local building code for exact overhang requirements in your area.

The roof pitch on a Cape Cod house is normally 8/12 or 10/12, meaning the roof rises 8 to 10 inches for every 12 inches of horizontal run. This is steeper than the now-standard 6/12 pitch, as Cape Cod homes were originally popular in northern states, where the steeper pitch helped snowfall slide readily off the roof.

You can only overlay a roof once. Any additional layers of shingles will add too much weight and may also violate building codes. Once your roof has had an overlay, you’ll need to have a full roof replacement, including a tear-off of all existing roofing materials, when it’s time for a new roof.
