You’ll sleep through storms instead of lying awake wondering if tonight’s the night your ceiling caves in. Your energy bills drop because your new roof actually insulates your home properly. You stop calling contractors every few months for emergency repairs.
The stress disappears. The constant worry about when the next leak will appear becomes a memory. Your home value increases, your family stays dry, and you finally have a roof that does what it’s supposed to do.
No more emergency buckets. No more cancelled plans because you need to wait for the repair guy. Just reliable protection that works.
Certified Contracting Services Inc has been solving roofing problems for Westchester County homeowners who got tired of dealing with contractors who overpromise and underdeliver. We’ve seen what happens when roofs aren’t installed correctly the first time.
Katonah homes face unique challenges. The weather patterns here can be brutal on roofing materials, and many contractors don’t understand how to properly prepare for the freeze-thaw cycles and heavy snow loads that are common in this area.
We’re licensed, insured, and we’ve built our reputation by showing up when we say we will and finishing jobs on time. Our customers know exactly what they’re getting before we start, and they get exactly what we promised when we’re done.
First, we inspect your current roof and show you exactly what needs to be done. No surprises, no hidden damage that magically appears after we start. You’ll see photos of the problem areas and understand why replacement makes more sense than patching.
Next, we remove your old roof completely and inspect the decking underneath. If we find issues with the structure, we fix them properly before installing your new roof. We don’t cut corners or leave problems for later.
Finally, we install your new roof using materials designed for Katonah’s climate. We clean up completely when we’re done, and you get a roof that will protect your home for decades, not just until the next storm hits.

Every roof replacement includes complete removal of your old roofing materials, inspection and repair of the roof decking, installation of proper underlayment, and installation of your new roofing system. We don’t take shortcuts.
In Katonah, we see a lot of ice dam damage and issues from improper ventilation. Your new roof will include proper ventilation systems to prevent ice dams and extend the life of your roofing materials. We also ensure proper flashing around chimneys, vents, and other roof penetrations.
You’ll get materials that are rated for the snow loads and wind speeds common in Westchester County. We use quality underlayment that provides an extra layer of protection against the moisture that can build up during Katonah’s humid summers and freeze-thaw cycles.
We handle all permits and inspections, and we offer financing options so you don’t have to choose between a roof that works and paying your other bills.
Most homeowners in Katonah spend between $8,000 and $25,000 for a complete roof replacement, depending on the size of their home and the materials they choose. Asphalt shingles are the most affordable option, while metal and slate cost more but last longer.
The exact cost depends on your roof’s size, pitch, and complexity, plus any structural repairs we find when we remove your old roof. We provide detailed estimates that break down all costs so you know exactly what you’re paying for. No surprises, no hidden fees that appear after we start.
Most roof replacements in Katonah take 1-3 days, depending on the size of your home and weather conditions. Larger homes or those with complex roof lines may take longer, especially if we need to make structural repairs.
We work efficiently but we don’t rush. Your roof needs to be installed correctly the first time, which means taking the time to do proper flashing, ventilation, and cleanup. We’ll give you a realistic timeline before we start and keep you updated if weather or unexpected issues cause delays.
Asphalt shingles work well for most Katonah homes and offer the best value for the money. They handle the freeze-thaw cycles and can be installed with proper ice and water barrier protection to prevent ice dam damage.
Metal roofing is excellent for homes that get heavy snow loads because snow slides off easily, reducing the risk of ice dams. It costs more upfront but lasts 50+ years compared to 20-30 years for asphalt. For historic homes, slate provides the longest lifespan but requires structural support due to its weight.
Insurance typically covers roof replacement if the damage was caused by a covered event like storms, hail, or fallen trees. If your roof is just old and worn out, insurance usually won’t pay for replacement.
We work with insurance companies regularly and can help document storm damage for your claim. We’ll provide detailed photos and reports that show the extent of the damage and why replacement is necessary. If insurance covers your roof, you’ll typically pay your deductible and we’ll work directly with your insurance company for the rest.
If your roof is over 20 years old and you’re calling for repairs more than once a year, replacement usually makes more financial sense. Multiple leaks, missing or curling shingles, and granule loss in your gutters are signs that your roof is failing.
We’ll inspect your roof and give you an honest assessment. Sometimes a few repairs can extend your roof’s life by several years. Other times, the underlying structure is compromised and repairs are just throwing money away. We’ll show you exactly what we find and explain your options.
Yes, we offer in-house financing with interest-free payment plans to fit your budget. You don’t need perfect credit, and we can often approve financing the same day you request it.
A new roof is an investment in your home’s value and your family’s safety. Our financing options let you get the roof you need now and pay for it over time, instead of waiting and risking more expensive damage from leaks. We’ll work with you to find a payment plan that fits your monthly budget.
