Gutter Guards

Gutter guards help prevent leaves and debris from causing clogs, overflow, and water damage. They keep water moving away from your roof while protecting the drip edge and fascia and reducing routine gutter maintenance.

Why Huntington roofs can fail early

Roofing Built for Huntington's Coastal Climate

Homes in Huntington and nearby coastal communities face salt air, strong winds, heavy rain, snow, and ice. These conditions can damage roofing materials over time, especially when the wrong nails or protective barriers are used. We install every roof with materials selected for Long Island's climate.

EG nails · 15 yrs
Hot-dip · 50 yrs

Protection Against Rust

We use hot-dip galvanized nails on every roof. Their thick zinc coating provides greater protection against rust and corrosion, helping the shingles remain securely attached for longer.
3 ft shield
6 to 9 ft shield

Extra Protection Against Ice Dams

We install six feet of ice and water shield along the gutter line and up to nine feet on homes with wider overhangs. This protective layer helps prevent melting snow and ice from forcing water beneath the roof.
Cover it up
Find it, fix it

Care for Older Huntington Homes

Some older Huntington homes have weakened plywood or old cedar shakes hidden beneath the existing roof. After removing the old materials, we inspect the roof deck, explain any problems we find, and replace wood that can no longer securely hold a roofing nail.

Most Roofs Completed in One Day

About 98% of our roof replacements are completed in one day, from removing the old roof to the final cleanup. Michael Falco is on site, and our experienced crew handles the entire installation.

01

We arrive early

Materials and the dumpster usually arrive the day before installation. Our crew arrives by 7:30 a.m., and Michael checks the materials, quantities, and shingle color before work begins.

02

We Protect Your Property

We put up tarps and cover the shrubs and landscaping. A dedicated cleanup crew keeps the ground clear all day, so our roofers can stay focused on the roof itself.

03

We Remove the Roof and Inspect the Wood

After removing the old roofing materials, we inspect the wood underneath. We replace any damaged wood that cannot securely hold a nail. The first three sheets of replacement plywood are included, and additional sheets are used only when needed.

04

We Install the New Roof and Clean Up

We install each part of the roofing system in the proper order, including the drip edge, leak barrier, underlayment, starter shingles, roof shingles, ventilation, and ridge cap. Afterward, we clean the property and use a magnetic tool to collect loose nails.

Larger or more complex roofs may require two days. This can include roofs with steep slopes, several dormers or valleys, or more than approximately 4,500 square feet. We identify these projects in advance and never leave your roof exposed overnight.

Pricing

How Much a New Roof Costs in Huntington

$11,000 to $13,000
Typical roof, average 2,000 sq ft home

A typical asphalt roof replacement for a 2,000-square-foot home in Huntington costs between $11,000 and $13,000. The final price depends on the Owens Corning roofing system you select and the complexity and condition of your roof.

We price each roof as a complete project rather than using a flat per-square-foot rate. Two similarly sized roofs may require different amounts of copper, drip edge, flashing, ventilation, or decking. Every estimate is itemized, so you can clearly see what is included and what you are paying for.

Financing and Payment Options:

0% Financing for Five Years

Longer Financing Terms

Longer repayment terms are available for homeowners who want a lower monthly payment. Depending on the project cost and selected term, payments may be less than $250 per month.

Fast Approval

Financing decisions are typically available in about a minute. You can apply online or complete the application with us in person.

Low or No Initial Payment

Why the Ultimate warranty matters

With most roofers, the workmanship warranty only lasts as long as the company does. They close in two years, your warranty goes with them. The Platinum Warranty is different. Owens Corning backs the work, not just us. If we stopped roofing tomorrow, Owens Corning would still send someone to fix or replace your roof, free.

Eight Details That Help Your Roof Last

A reliable roof is more than a layer of shingles. Every component must work together to protect your home from wind, rain, snow, and ice. Here are eight details we include when building your roof.
6 nails per shingle

Six Nails per Shingle

We secure every shingle with six hot-dip galvanized nails. Their thick zinc coating provides added protection against rust and helps keep the shingles securely attached during strong winds.

6 to 9 feet

Six to Nine Feet of Leak Protection

We install six feet of ice and water shield along the gutter line and up to nine feet on homes with wider overhangs. This waterproof barrier helps stop melting snow and ice from getting beneath the roof.

Copper, not aluminum

Copper Chimney Flashing

Flashing seals the area where the chimney meets the roof, one of the most common places for leaks to develop. We use durable copper flashing around masonry chimneys for long-lasting protection.

Standard on every chimney

Chimney Crickets When Needed

A chimney cricket is a small raised section built behind a chimney. It directs rain, snow, and ice around the chimney instead of allowing water to collect behind it.

NY building code

Drip Edge Along the Roof

Drip edge directs rainwater away from the roof and into the gutters. This helps protect the edges of the roof, fascia boards, and underlying wood from moisture damage.

12 years vs 50 years

Proper Roof Ventilation

A roof needs both intake and exhaust ventilation to move heat and moisture out of the attic. If your home does not have soffit vents, we can install an Owens Corning InFlow vent to provide the airflow your roof needs.

Factory-sealed first row

Factory-Sealed Starter Shingles

We install pre-cut starter shingles along the edge of the roof. Their factory-applied seal helps secure the first row of shingles, where wind can most easily get underneath.

One system, no generics

One Complete Owens Corning System

The leak barrier, underlayment, starter shingles, roof shingles, ventilation, and ridge cap are designed to work together as one Owens Corning roofing system. This creates consistent protection across the entire roof.

Every one of these details is standard

Not an upgrade, not a line item. It is how we build every roof in Huntington.

Certified Roofing Contractor in Huntington by Owens Corning

Platinum Preferred is Owens Corning's top contractor level. Only 10 roofers on all of Long Island hold it. We got there by finishing Owens Corning's training.

Smart Choice platinum certificate

Total Protection Roofing System Trained

Owens Corning trained us on every part of their roofing system. That is why we pick parts that work together, instead of buying whatever is cheapest for each one.

SureNail Technology Trained

SureNail is a reinforced strip built into the shingle. It gives every nail something solid to grab.

Top of the House Certified

This one is about the roof, the vents, and the attic insulation working as one system. Get it right and the house is warmer in winter and cooler in summer.

Shingle Recycling Pledge

We recycle your old shingles when there is somewhere local to take them, instead of sending everything to the dump.

Meet the Owner

Meet Michael Falco

Smart Choice Contracting installs asphalt shingle roofs in Huntington and across Long Island, and that is all we do. Michael Falco has spent over 26 years mastering one trade instead of dabbling in many, and our crew installs asphalt roofs every single day. That focus is why our roofs last.

Call Smart Choice Contracting and you get Michael himself, not a salesman working on commission. He looks at every roof, writes every estimate, and is on site for the work. He asks for a $200 deposit, and you pay the rest when we finish.

We are not the cheapest roofer in Huntington, and we do not try to be. Our customers are the homeowners who take the time to compare what they are actually getting for their money.

I look at a callback as a profit killer. So I put more into your roof up front than the other guys do, so I never have to come back.
