You will not find another roofer that will replace your roof, according to manufacturer specifications, at a better price than we offer. Our estimates include quality underlayment, new flashings, new drip edge, and the proper number of nails placed in each shingle. Some roofers save money by using less nails than they should or by replacing promised roofing materials with cheaper ones. Replacing a roof way before its expected lifespan is the most expensive roof you'll ever buy when you hire one of these cheaters.
Roof Replacements
If you have an aging roof, or a roof that has received catastrophic damage, we can come take a look and provide a free quote to replace it. Roofs are a vital part of every structure. With our extensive knowledge, we will make sure that we don't miss any hidden issues, and your new roof will be leak-free. We check for clogged gutters, damaged fascia, and ensure the roof deck is solid. Whether you have a residential house, or own an apartment complex, or need a new roof on a commercial building, we are licensed to work on all of it!
Roof replacement is often costly, which is why we offer ideas for repairs or coating if possible. If the roof does need to be replaced, we work with a financing company to help you afford it. We are also familiar with working with insurance agencies. While replacing a roof is a big investment, it pays off. Keeping your building dry and properly insulated and vented can help save on cooling and heating costs, prevent damage and mold inside, and ensure the rest of the building stays in great condition. A new roof also is a great selling point if you sell your home or building to a new owner.

Improper Roof Repair
|
Sloped roofs rely on gravity to keep the water flowing down off the shingles or tiles. Thus, the leaks occur mostly around perforations for vent stacks, chimneys, skylights or along valleys. We repair and maintain all types of sloped roofs ceramic tiles, asphalt shingles, wood shake, metal and slate as quickly and as budget friendly as we can. If your roof is leaking, give us a call sooner than later because with time the hole gets larger causing further sometimes irreparable damage. When water gains a path into your home or office, it gives rise to rot in wood studs and mold spores which are all around us build colonies- then the stink sets in.
Roof leaks are a most unwelcome problem for a business because inventory and store contents can be ruined. Roof leaks occur along flashings, seams, storm damage to membranes and punctures along high traffic areas (sometimes employees will use the flat roof as a work space). Blisters quite often develop in Built-up roofs. If they are small ones’, intervention may not be required only a watchful eye. However, large blisters or ridges beneath the surface are a warning sign something is wrong and corrective action should be taken. Periodic roof inspections carried out on a preventative maintenance program offered by Skyward Roofing is one of the best ways that will forestall preventable emergency failures or leaks.

Rubber Roof Installation
|
Commercial Roofing contractorCommercial roofs require a different set of knowledge than residential roofs. Depending on what business you have, and whether you have foot traffic, will affect the way the roof is installed and what materials should be used. TPO roofs are great for restaurants because they are grease resistant, but they are not great for foot traffic. Knowing these details, and how to adapt your roof to your needs, is one of the reasons that it is important to select a roofing company who has lots of experience with commercial projects (like Skyward Roofing does).

EDPM/Rubber Roof Install

Flat Roofing
Flat or low slope roofing is a kind of roof used on many buildings in Yonkers. Popular for apartment buildings, large department stores, and restaurants, it is also sometimes used for smaller projects, like over the sunroom of a house. Common flat roofing material includes PVC, TPO, and EPDM. Torch-down roofing, and its successor BUR roofing is also something we see around here. Metal roofing can also be used in low-slope applications.

Standing Seam Roof
|
Metal Roofing
Our roofing contractors work on metal roofs. If you need repair, maintenance, replacement, or installation, we can ensure that you have a high-quality metal roof that looks great and will last for a long time. There are many types of metal roofs to choose from to fit with your building's design and roofing needs. Standing seam metal roofs are one of the longest-lasting and cost-effective options. You can choose between different metals and paint jobs to customize the look. For even more customization, you can choose metal tile roofs. These roofs are designed to look like shingles, wood shakes, slate tiles, clay tiles, and other traditional roof options, but weigh a lot less!

Luxury Shingles Give Your Home a Unique Look
|
Asphalt Shingles
Asphalt shingles are usually made of a fiberglass sheet dipped in asphalt and coated with ceramic granules. New styles of asphalt shingles have a much greater lifespan than the older 3-tab style. While a shingle roof used to last about 20 years, architectural shingles nowadays can be trusted for upwards of 50 years. It's time to get a roofing contractor to check your house if you see shingles blown off after a storm, notice a lot of ceramic granules coming out your downspout when it rains, or know that you have a shingle roof that is older than 25 years.

TPO Roof Install
|
TPO RoofingReplacing or installing a TPO roof or PVC roof requires specialized tools and training. Skyward Roofing is equipped to install, replace, and repair TPO and PVC roofs. These flat, single-ply membrane roofs are often used on commercial buildings. They often are white and can help buildings meet their Energy Star goals. It is important to inspect these roofs yearly, and check for any ponding water or seams that have come apart. If we see any issues, we will let you know and provide a quote for repairing them.
|
EPDM Roof in Need of TLC
|
EDPM/Rubber roofing
EPDM roofs are also known as "rubber roofs", but are actually made of ethylene propylene diene monomer (which is what the name stands for). These single-ply membranes are typically black, but can also come in white. A lot of it has to do with whether you'd prefer to help heat the building with the heat-absorbing black, or keep the building cooler with the sun-reflecting white. EPDM roofs are quicker to install than TPO and are usually adhered with adhesive. However, the installation method will depend on how the roof is used, and the climate and wind conditions at your building. These roofs can also be mechanically fastened, or have ballast used on it as well.

Spray Foam Coating on Roof
|
Spray Polyurethane Foam (SPF)
SPF roofing helps extend the life of your roof and provide extra insulation as well. We have experience in installing this kind of roof and can provide you a free quote. When we do our free assessment, we will first check the condition of your roof overall and make sure it is a good candidate for this solution. SPF roofing can be a great way to add some years to your roof, and improve your building's energy efficiency.

Installing a Slate Roof
|
Slate Roofer
Slate is formed from earth that has been compressed by pressure and heat produced by tectonic forces. The sediment gets folded and refolded into dense smooth rock usually found on the sides of cliffs, underground and in pits. Slate can easily break into thin smooth sheets because of its foliation (a structure formed of thin layers) which makes it useful for roofing.
Slate Roofs have long been considered a top roofing system, although it is also one of the most expensive options. Slate performs well as roofing because it can be cut into thin sheets, and its very dense structure makes it moisture repellent. These tiles withstand freezing and thawing well, which is great for a northern climate like NY. It has been used as roofing since the 13th century and can easily last 175 years or more. |
Waterproofing Installed on SPF Roof
|
Waterproofing Flat Roofs in YonkersA polyurea or elastomeric coating can be a game changer for your existing roof. Used in conjunction with SPF or by itself, it helps waterproof your roof and increase its reflectivity. It is most often used on be used on flat membrane roofs or metal roofs. It helps seal small holes and improve the condition of the roof and prevent leaks. A waterproof barrier helps seal screw holes on metal roofs, and prevents the membrane roofs from becoming dry and brittle.
