General Contractor in Staten Island, New York

Staten Island is the most suburban part of New York City. Most homes here have their own driveway, a pitched roof and space to expand, which makes roofing, paving and remodeling the core of our work in Tottenville, Great Kills, Eltingville, Annadale, New Dorp, Westerleigh, Port Richmond and St. George.

Staten Island Homes and Their Needs

• Asphalt-shingle roofs on detached homes and townhouses: shingle roofing, roof replacement and repairs.
• Driveways that crack and sink over time: driveway paving and asphalt repair.
• Kitchens, bathrooms and basements: kitchen remodeling, bathroom remodeling and basement finishing.

Coastal Weather and Storm Damage

Staten Island's shoreline is exposed to nor'easters and tropical storms. Strong winds lift and tear shingles, and wind-driven rain finds its way under worn flashing. After a storm, check your yard for shingle pieces and look for stains on upstairs ceilings. If you see either, have the roof inspected before the next storm. Our guide on spotting roof damage early covers the warning signs.

Permits on Staten Island

Staten Island follows New York City rules: NYC Department of Buildings permits for many roofing and alteration jobs, and a NYC Department of Consumer and Worker Protection license for home improvement contractors. Homes in flood zones can have extra rules for basement work and major renovations.

Staten Island Contractor FAQs

Asphalt or concrete for my driveway?

Asphalt costs less up front and handles winter well; concrete lasts longer but costs more and is harder to repair. See our asphalt vs. concrete comparison.

Can I finish a basement in a flood zone?

Sometimes, with limits on materials and use. We check your property's flood zone before planning a basement project.

Do you help with storm insurance claims?

We document the damage with photos and a written estimate that you can send to your insurer.
