Brentwood Premium Roofing provides professional roof replacement and tear-off in Brentwood, NY for residential and commercial properties across central Suffolk County. Most replacement quotes here open with a shingle brand. Ours opens with two figures: how many coverings sit on the house now, and what they weigh. Those two decide a large share of what you end up paying.
The reason is a statute rather than a preference. New York's Long Island Landfill Law of 1983 is written for Nassau and Suffolk by name, and it ended land burial over the aquifer that supplies every tap on this island. The state environmental department records that the burial of municipal solid waste at the county's last large landfill ceased in 1990 in compliance with it, and no replacement may lawfully be opened.
That turns a strip-off into a freight problem as much as a carpentry one. The old covering comes down, goes into a container, is weighed at a transfer station and leaves by truck or rail. Two coverings on a sixteen-hundred-square-foot cape is not twice the mess of one. It is twice the tonnage, and tonnage is what the scale bills for. Almost nobody quotes you that half of the job unless you make them.
So we count first and price second. That means lifting shingles at a rake and again at a valley instead of reading the roof from the driveway, and the count is written onto the estimate. Removal and haul-off form one priced line, the new assembly forms another. You can see plainly which portion of the money buys a roof and which portion buys a departure.
It settles the question we hear most, which is whether fresh material can simply go over the old. The residential code stops a recover where two applications are already present, and adding a second layer roughly doubles what the eventual removal will weigh and cost. On an asphalt roof in this hamlet we take everything down to the boards, and that gets said at the first visit, not saved for the last.
With the sheathing exposed we gauge it, renail what is sound, and quote replacement by the sheet in writing before anything covers it again. The postwar houses here help us. They are small, the planes are few, the cut-up is minimal, and a straightforward job stays straightforward as long as nobody guessed at the weight beforehand. Counting honestly on day one is worth more to you than any discount offered on day two.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — layer counts lifted at the rake and at a valley, weighed transfer-station tickets kept in the job file, mid-weight laminated asphalt in a standard architectural profile, twenty-six gauge edge metal hemmed at the fascia line, two-inch core plugs cut through a low-slope assembly, a silicone field coat measured in wet mils — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Brentwood and nearby communities including Central Islip, Bay Shore, Deer Park, North Bay Shore.

Materials, equipment and how we do roof replacement and tear-off
The difference between roof replacement and tear-off that lasts and roof replacement and tear-off that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with layer counts lifted at the rake and at a valley, weighed transfer-station tickets kept in the job file, mid-weight laminated asphalt in a standard architectural profile, twenty-six gauge edge metal hemmed at the fascia line, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Brentwood job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in central Suffolk County means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Brentwood Chooses Brentwood Premium Roofing
- ✓Every estimate opens with two numbers, the layer count and what the old covering weighs coming off, because on Long Island the removal is a sizeable share of the job
- ✓We repair more roofs than we replace and we say why, since an early tear-off is several tons of freight you paid to move off the island for no reason
- ✓We will coat a sound, dry, draining low-slope roof and argue for it, and refuse to coat a wet one or a shingle one, with the core plugs on the table behind either answer
- ✓We do not sell new tile in this hamlet. The framing on a postwar house here was never drawn for the load and the exit cost is the highest of any covering
