When your roof starts leaking, every hour counts. Water doesn’t wait—it finds every crack, seeps into insulation, and spreads through walls and ceilings.
You need roof repair that stops the problem at its source. Not temporary patches that fail during the next storm, but real fixes that keep your family dry and your home protected.
Our residential roof repair service handles everything from minor leak repairs to major storm damage. We show up when we say we will, give you straight answers about what needs fixing, and complete the work so you can stop worrying about your roof.
Certified Contracting Services Inc has been fixing roofs in Tarrytown and throughout Westchester County for years. We understand how Northeast winters, spring storms, and temperature swings affect local homes.
Most Tarrytown homes were built decades ago, and their roofs face unique challenges. Ice dams from those steep-pitched roofs, aging flashing around chimneys, and shingles that take a beating from nor’easters.
We’ve repaired roofs on everything from historic colonials near the Hudson to newer developments off Route 9. When you call us, you’re working with contractors who know exactly what your roof is up against.
First, we inspect your roof to find the real source of the problem. Not just where you see water inside, but where it’s actually getting in. Leaks often travel along rafters before showing up somewhere completely different.
Next, we give you a clear roof repair estimate that covers exactly what needs fixing. No surprise charges, no pressure to replace your entire roof if a repair will do the job.
Then we fix it right. We use materials designed for our climate and install them properly so they’ll hold up through whatever weather comes next. Most repairs are completed in one day, and we clean up completely when we’re done.

Our roof repair service covers everything that can go wrong with Tarrytown roofs. Shingle replacement, flashing repair, gutter fixes, and emergency tarping when storms hit hard.
We handle the insurance paperwork too. Storm damage claims require proper documentation, and we know exactly what adjusters need to see. We’ll work directly with your insurance company to make sure your claim goes smoothly.
For emergency roof repair, we respond fast. When your roof is actively leaking, we’ll get there quickly to stop the water and prevent further damage to your home. Then we’ll schedule the permanent repair at your convenience.
Roof repair costs in Tarrytown typically range from $300 for minor fixes to $1,500 for major repairs, depending on the extent of damage and materials needed. Simple shingle replacement might cost $400-600, while flashing repair around chimneys or skylights ranges from $500-800.
The key is getting an accurate diagnosis first. Many leaks that seem major are actually caused by small problems that cost much less to fix. We provide detailed estimates that break down exactly what needs repair and why, so you know where your money is going.
Storm damage repairs often qualify for insurance coverage, which can significantly reduce your out-of-pocket costs. We help document the damage properly and work with your insurance company throughout the claims process.
Most roof repairs in Tarrytown are completed in one day, weather permitting. Simple repairs like replacing damaged shingles or fixing small leaks usually take 2-4 hours. More complex work involving flashing, multiple leak sources, or structural issues might take a full day.
Emergency repairs happen much faster. If your roof is actively leaking, we can usually get there within hours to stop the water with temporary measures, then schedule the permanent repair for the next available day.
Weather affects timing significantly. We won’t start work if conditions aren’t safe or if rain would compromise the repair quality. It’s better to wait for proper conditions than rush a job that won’t hold up long-term.
Yes, we work directly with insurance companies on storm damage claims and provide all necessary documentation. We photograph the damage, create detailed repair estimates, and communicate with adjusters throughout the process.
Most homeowners don’t realize that how you document damage affects whether your claim gets approved. Insurance companies want specific information about cause, extent, and repair methods. We know exactly what they need to see.
We’ll meet with your adjuster on-site, explain the damage, and advocate for proper repairs rather than quick fixes. Our goal is getting your claim approved for quality materials and workmanship that will protect your home long-term.
Ice dams are the biggest culprit for Tarrytown roof leaks, especially on older homes with steep roofs. When snow melts and refreezes at the roof edge, it creates dams that force water under shingles and into your home.
Flashing failures around chimneys, skylights, and roof valleys cause many leaks too. The metal flashing that seals these areas deteriorates over time, and many older homes have flashing that wasn’t installed to current standards.
Storm damage from high winds and falling branches also creates sudden leak problems. Even small impacts can crack shingles or damage flashing enough to let water in. The key is addressing these issues quickly before they turn into major problems.
Absolutely, when done properly and in time. Most roofs that get replaced prematurely could have been saved with timely repairs. The key is addressing problems before they spread and cause structural damage.
A single leak might only require replacing a few shingles and some flashing. But if ignored, that same leak can rot roof decking, damage insulation, and create mold problems that force a complete roof replacement.
We’re honest about when repair makes sense versus replacement. If your roof has widespread damage or is near the end of its useful life, we’ll tell you. But many Tarrytown homeowners are surprised to learn their “hopeless” roof just needs targeted repairs in a few key areas.
Yes, we provide 24/7 emergency roof repair service for active leaks and storm damage. When your roof is leaking during a storm, waiting until business hours can mean thousands in additional water damage.
Our emergency service includes immediate response to stop active leaks, temporary weatherproofing to protect your home, and damage assessment to plan permanent repairs. We carry tarps, emergency patching materials, and basic repair supplies to handle urgent situations.
Emergency calls get priority scheduling for permanent repairs too. Once we’ve stopped the immediate problem, we’ll schedule the complete repair work as soon as weather permits. Most emergency repairs are followed up with permanent fixes within 1-2 days.
