Trusted Roof Replacement for Yonkers Homeowners
The roof over your head shouldn’t be a gamble. When shingles are curling, granules are collecting in the gutters, or a ceiling stain keeps coming back after every heavy rain, the honest question isn’t whether you need a new roof. It’s who you can trust to tell you the truth about it. Ashton Roof Repair handles roof replacement and inspection for homeowners across Yonkers, and we’ve spent 14 years doing it the same way: an honest inspection first, a recommendation second. We’re licensed and insured, we give written line-item estimates, and we pull the permits so the job gets inspected and signed off. Call (833) 741-8977 and we’ll take a look.
Roof Installation
Roof Installation means putting a brand-new roof system on a home, whether that’s a first-time install on new construction or a full replacement after a tear-off. You need it when the existing roof has reached the end of its service life, when storm damage is too widespread to patch, or when you’re adding on and the old decking no longer meets the load the new assembly requires. We install shingle and flat roof systems from manufacturers like CertainTeed and Owens Corning, plus value-tier lines from IKO and Atlas, so the material fits your roof and budget rather than our inventory. You’ll know the price before we start: a typical roof installation on a standard Yonkers single-family home runs somewhere in the range we outline in the pricing section below, and the written estimate sets the final number.
Decking and Underlayment Prep
Before a single shingle goes down, we check the decking for soft spots, rot, and popped nails, and we replace any sheathing that won’t hold a fastener. A proper underlayment goes over that. Skipping this step is how “cheap” roof installations fail years early.
Flashing and Ventilation
Chimneys, skylights, and valleys are where most leaks start, so we re-flash those details rather than reusing tired metal. We also match the ridge and soffit ventilation to the roof plane so heat and moisture escape the way the assembly was designed to.

Roof Replacement Contractor
A Roof Replacement Contractor is the company that tears off the old roof, installs a new system, and stands behind the work with a workmanship warranty. You need one when repair stops making sense. If more than about a quarter of the roof is failing, or the leaks come back in different spots every season, patching is throwing money at a problem that won’t quit. Ashton Roof Repair is that contractor in Yonkers. We’re licensed and insured, we give you a written line-item quote, and the price doesn’t move unless the decking is worse than the inspection showed, which we flag in writing before we touch it. We don’t push one brand. We install them all, so the recommendation fits your roof, not our stockroom. Estimates for a full replacement in Yonkers generally fall in the ranges in our pricing section.
What a Written Quote Should Include
Ask for tear-off, disposal, decking inspection, underlayment, flashing, ventilation, and cleanup listed line by line, with the product and color named. If a quote is one sentence with a lump sum, get another quote.
Choosing Between Repair and Replacement
Bring us in for a roof repair or a standalone inspection and we’ll tell you which way to go. If repair buys you years, we’ll say so. If it doesn’t, we’ll show you why.
Asphalt Shingle Roof Replacement
Asphalt Shingle Roof Replacement is the most common job we do in Yonkers, and it’s what most single-family homes here are built for. You need it when shingles are brittle, granules are washing off in the rain, or the roof is past the age its manufacturer rated it for. We install architectural and three-tab shingle systems across multiple manufacturers, so we can compare an Owens Corning system against a CertainTeed or Atlas line honestly, side by side, on price and longevity. A typical asphalt shingle replacement runs within the ranges noted in our pricing section, and the written estimate sets the final price. Asphalt is the sweet spot for most budgets here, and we’ll tell you when a premium shingle pays off and when the value line does the job just fine.
Architectural vs. Three-Tab
Architectural shingles are thicker, have a layered look, and generally last longer than three-tab. On a steep, sun-baked Yonkers roof, that extra weight and wear layer often earns its cost back.
Hail and Impact Damage
Hail is uncommon in Yonkers, so we write up storm and impact damage in general terms and check for wind and debris damage on the slope that takes the weather. If a claim is in play, we can work with your insurer and document what we find.
New Roof Installation
New Roof Installation applies when the old roof comes off entirely and a fresh system goes on, or when you’re roofing a new structure and there was nothing there before. You need it when the decking itself has failed, when storm damage is too extensive for a patch, or when you’re preparing a home for sale and the inspection report put the roof on the table. Ashton Roof Repair handles the whole job under one roof: inspection, the install, and the follow-up. We install premium-tier and value-tier products from GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral, so you get a real comparison instead of a single option. Pricing lands in the ranges in our cost section, and the free estimate is where you see it spelled out.
Permits and Inspections
Most Yonkers-area municipalities require a permit for a full roof replacement, so we check with the local building department and pull the paperwork. Permits pulled and inspections passed is the standard we hold ourselves to.
Warranty on a New Roof
You get the manufacturer’s warranty on the materials and our own workmanship warranty on the installation. We put both in writing so there’s no question later about who’s responsible for what.
Reroofing
Reroofing means installing new roofing material over the existing layer instead of tearing the old one off first, and it’s a legitimate option when the current roof is still sound underneath. You need it when the old shingles are worn but the decking is solid and code allows the added layer. We’ll tell you honestly whether your roof qualifies, because stacking shingles on a failing deck just buries the problem. Reroofing is usually the lower-cost route, though it doesn’t let us test the decking beneath. That’s a tradeoff you should know about before you decide. We service homes across Yonkers and the surrounding towns. Whether you have CertainTeed or any other make on the old roof, we can help you compare a reroof against a full tear-off.
When Overlay Makes Sense
If the roof is a single layer now, the decking is solid, and the manufacturer and code allow it, an overlay can save on tear-off and disposal. We verify all three before recommending it.
The Tradeoffs to Weigh
An overlay can hide decking problems and adds weight, and some manufacturers won’t fully back a warranty over an existing layer. We walk through that with you so the choice is informed.
Flat Roof Replacement
Flat Roof Replacement covers low-slope and flat sections, the porches, additions, and bays that dot Yonkers, where standard shingles don’t shed water the way they need to. You need it when ponding water, blisters, or a soft membrane keep letting moisture in. Flat roofs fail differently from pitched ones, so the waterproofing system has to be matched to the slope, drainage, and your building’s structure. We size that up in the inspection and lay out the options with the cost attached. Flat roof work usually runs in the ranges noted in our pricing section, and again the written estimate sets the final figure.
Membrane and Drainage Options
The right membrane depends on slope, traffic, and how the roof drains. We design so water leaves the roof and doesn’t sit on it, since standing water is what kills most flat roofs.
Roof-to-Wall Detailing
Most flat roof leaks come from the edges, where the roof meets the wall or a penetration. We detail those tie-ins carefully, because the field membrane is rarely the weak point.
Brands We Service
We install across seven major roofing manufacturers, and we know where each product line earns its keep on a Hudson Valley roof. GAF and CertainTeed are premium workhorses: dependable, widely backed, and easy to match to color on a steep asphalt shingle job. Owens Corning is a strong mid-to-premium choice with a track record we like on architectural shingles. We also work with IKO and Atlas for homeowners who want solid performance without the premium price tag, plus Tamko and Boral lines for the right job.
Because we install across all of them, we never have to steer you toward one brand to clear our inventory. We can put a CertainTeed system next to an IKO or Atlas option and compare them honestly on cost, longevity, and fit for your roof. Whether you have GAF or any other make in mind, we can help you decide what’s actually right for the house.

AfterSigns You Need a Pro Right Now
- Ceiling stains after heavy rain. A brown ring or drip on the ceiling usually means water is already past the shingles and working into the deck and insulation. Catch it early and it’s often a repair; let it run and it’s a replacement.
- Shingles curling, cracking, or missing. Brittle shingles that curl at the edges or blow off in storms are past their useful life. A growing bare patch on the slope exposes the underlayment and speeds the damage underneath.
- Granules collecting in gutters or at downspouts. Those gritty black bits are the weathering layer of your shingles washing away. Once it’s gone, the shingle wears out fast, and it’s a clear sign the roof is aging out.
- Daylight or a draft through the roof deck. If you can see light in the attic or feel warm air where the roof meets the house, there’s a gap or failure somewhere. That’s worth an inspection before the next storm finds it.
- Sagging, soft, or spongy roof area. A visible sag or a soft spot underfoot means the decking has taken on water and lost strength. That’s a structural concern, not a cosmetic one, and it needs a trained professional to assess before anyone climbs on it.
Our Process, Step by Step
- 1
Free inspection. We get on the roof, photograph the findings, and check decking, flashing, and ventilation from the ground and up top. You see what we see.
- 2
Honest recommendation. We tell you whether repair makes sense or whether replacement is the smarter money. No upsell, and no pressure to buy a new roof if a repair will hold.
- 3
Written line-item estimate. You get the scope, the products, and the price in writing, with the price set per job. Fixed pricing, and no change orders unless the decking is worse than the inspection showed, which we confirm before we proceed.
- 4
Permits and the install. We pull the permits, tear off cleanly, prep the decking and underlayment, and install the new system with the flashing and ventilation dialed in. The site stays clean, and the property is left as we found it.
- 5
Inspection and hand-off. We finish the job, walk the final result with you, and confirm the inspections pass. Workmanship and manufacturer warranties go to you in writing.
How Much Does Roof Replacement Cost in Yonkers?
Roof replacement in Yonkers is priced per job, and the only number that matters is the one in your written estimate. We don’t publish fixed figures because every roof is different, but we can tell you what drives the cost and how to compare quotes fairly. A roof with simple straight runs and few penetrations prices lower than one with multiple valleys, chimneys, and dormers. A flat roof section costs differently from a steep shingle plane. A full tear-off that lets us inspect and replace decking costs more than a reroofing overlay. And the material tier matters: a value line from IKO or Atlas prices below a premium GAF or CertainTeed system, so the honest comparison comes down to how long you plan to stay and how much wear the roof takes.
The best way to avoid overpaying is to get a written line-item quote and compare it scope for scope with any other bid. Ask what’s included: tear-off, disposal, decking, underlayment, flashing, ventilation, permits, and cleanup. A low bid that skips half the scope isn’t a lower price, it’s a smaller job. Our free estimate lays all of it out line by line, and we can work with your insurer on storm-related claims. The price is fixed per the written estimate, and it doesn’t move once work starts. Call (833) 741-8977 for your estimate.

Frequently Asked Questions About Roof Replacement in Yonkers
Roof replacement is removing your old roofing material and installing a new roof system, typically with fresh decking prep, underlayment, flashing, and ventilation. It’s different from a repair, which fixes a localized problem, and from reroofing, which overlays new material without tearing off the old. A replacement resets the clock on the whole roof rather than one section. Call (833) 741-8977 for a free inspection to see which one your roof needs.
Most single-family roof replacements take one to three days of work on site, depending on size, pitch, and how much decking needs replacing. A flat roof section or complex roof with multiple valleys can push that longer. Weather plays a part too, since we don’t want to open the roof when rain is coming. Your written estimate will give you a realistic timeline for your job.
It depends on the roof’s size, pitch, material, and whether it’s a tear-off or an overlay, which is why we price per job instead of quoting a flat figure. Your written line-item estimate lays out every cost before we start, and the price is fixed once work begins. We give you a free estimate, and we don’t add change orders unless the decking is worse than the inspection showed. Call (833) 741-8977 for an exact quote; estimates are free.
Yes. We install CertainTeed, GAF, Owens Corning, IKO, Atlas, Tamko, and Boral, so you’re not limited to one manufacturer’s options. That means we can compare a premium line against a value line honestly and recommend based on fit, budget, and longevity rather than what we stock. Whether you have CertainTeed or any other make in mind, we can help you decide what’s right for your roof.
Yes, same-day service is available. We answer 24/7, and our crews are dispatched Sunday through Friday, 7am to 7pm, closed Saturday. A call outside dispatch hours is booked into the next opening during those times. Call (833) 741-8977 and we’ll get you on the schedule.
You get two layers of coverage: the manufacturer’s warranty on the roofing materials and our own workmanship warranty on the installation. Both are put in writing so you know exactly what’s covered and for how long. If something goes wrong down the line, you have the paperwork and a contractor who installed the system under warranty. Ask us to walk you through it during the estimate.
Move vehicles out of the driveway and clear the work area around the house before the crew arrives. Cover or relocate anything fragile in the attic or near exterior walls, because tear-off is noisy and generates dust. Take down wall decor that could rattle, and keep children and pets inside while work is underway. We’ll confirm the details and timing before we start so there are no surprises.
