#1 Levittown Roofing Contractor
County Roofing Systems
Levittown, NY Roofing and Home Exterior Services
SERVING LONG ISLAND AND NY FOR 35 YEARS
Get Your Levittown Roof Looking Better Than Ever
Levittown is Long Island’s original postwar suburb — and its housing stock is among the oldest and most uniform in Nassau County.
Built in a single concentrated push between 1947 and 1951, virtually every home in Levittown is now approaching 75 years old.
These homes were built to be affordable, not to last forever unchanged, and the ones that have lasted require a roofing contractor who understands what that age actually means at tear-off.
County Roofing Systems has served Nassau County communities for over 35 years, including Levittown and the surrounding mid-island South Shore corridor. We hold elite certifications from GAF, Owens Corning, and CertainTeed — placing us in the top 3% of contractors nationwide — and we handle all permit requirements in-house.

A BEAUTIFUL NEW ROOF
Roof Replacement and New Installation
When a Levittown roof has reached the end of its service life — or storm damage has compromised it beyond practical repair — we handle the complete replacement.
That means full tear-off, thorough deck inspection with replacement of any compromised sheathing, a complete underlayment system, and new shingles from GAF, Owens Corning, or CertainTeed. For additions and accessory structures, we install from the ground up. All projects are permitted through the Town of Hempstead Building Department. See our Roof Replacement and Roof Installation pages for full details.
FAST ROOF REPAIR
Roof Repair
Flashing failures, lifted shingles, valley leaks, and deteriorated pipe boots are common repair issues on Levittown’s older cape cods. We diagnose root causes rather than patching over symptoms, and we give you a straight assessment of whether repair or full replacement is the right call at your home’s age and condition. Full details on our Roof Repair page.
EXPAND YOUR HOME
Siding
Levittown’s original homes frequently present aluminum siding installed as an upgrade decades ago, or early-generation vinyl that has reached the end of its service life. We install James Hardie fiber cement siding and CertainTeed vinyl across all home styles, with all flashing and trim details handled correctly. See our Siding Installation page.
REVITALIZE YOUR HOME
Windows
Aging windows in Levittown’s older homes — including original wood frames still in place on some properties — are a consistent source of energy loss, drafts, and moisture infiltration. We install Marvin and Pella replacement windows with proper flashing and sealing at every opening. Details on our Window Installation page.
KEEP YOUR ROOF IN TOP SHAPE
Gutters
Compact lot spacing and established tree cover keep gutters loaded with debris through fall and winter in Levittown’s dense residential blocks. We install seamless aluminum gutters sized and positioned for proper drainage, and we address any fascia or soffit deterioration before installation. See our Gutter Installation page.

Roofing Considerations Specific to Levittown Homeowners
Original Cape Cod Construction and Deck History
Levittown’s original capes were built fast and built to a price point. Original board sheathing- not plywood- is what’s under the majority of roofs in the community, and its condition at tear-off depends entirely on how many times water has reached it over the past 75 years.
Homes that have been re-roofed by adding a layer rather than doing a full tear-off may have deck sections that haven’t been inspected in 30 or 40 years.
There is no substitute for taking everything down to bare wood. We inspect every inch, document every finding, and replace compromised sheathing before any new material goes down.
Dormer and Addition Transitions
Levittown’s capes were famously expanded over the decades — dormer additions, rear room extensions, and enclosed porches are standard features throughout the community. Every one of those additions created a transition point where the new roof plane meets the original, and those transitions are where water finds its way in when the flashing work isn’t done correctly.
Step flashing at vertical walls, head flashing above dormers, and the transition between different pitch zones are the details that separate a roof that lasts from one that develops problems in a few years. We treat every transition as a critical installation element.
Low-Pitch Sections and Underlayment Requirements
Levittown’s original capes have relatively shallow pitches on the main sections, and additions and enclosed porches often extend that into genuinely low-slope territory. Low-slope sections require extended ice-and-water shield coverage and appropriate underlayment specifications for that pitch.
They’re also more vulnerable to wind-driven water intrusion than steep sections — an important consideration on a mid-island South Shore community that sits in nor’easter territory.
Town of Hempstead Building Department
All roofing work in Levittown falls under the Town of Hempstead Building Department’s jurisdiction. Permits are required for replacement and certain repair scopes, and inspections must be completed before the project is closed.
County Roofing manages all permit filings and inspections on every project from start to finish.

How Our Roof Installation Process Works
1. Complete deck preparation
We remove all existing materials down to bare wood, inspect every section of decking for rot, soft spots, and deterioration, and replace compromised sheathing before any new material goes down.
2. GAF WeatherWatch ice-and-water shield
Applied along all eaves (minimum 3 feet from the edge), through every valley, and around all penetrations. Extended coverage on low-slope sections and pitch transitions.
3. GAF FeltBuster synthetic underlayment
Installed across the remaining deck for superior tear resistance and weather protection throughout the installation window.
4. Drip edge and flashing
Aluminum drip edge along all rakes and eaves; step and counter flashing at walls and dormers; valley flashing; pipe boot seals at all plumbing penetrations; chimney flashing and counter-flashing.
5. GAF Pro-Start starter course
Specialized starter shingles installed along eaves and rakes, creating a sealed edge that resists wind uplift and establishes accurate alignment for every course above it.
6. Shingle installation course-by-course
Chalk lines snapped for straight courses; correct nail placement and quantity per manufacturer spec; hand-sealing in high-wind zones; GAF Timberline HDZ or Owens Corning Duration applied in full compliance with certification requirements.
7. GAF TimberTex ridge cap
Specialized ridge cap shingles at all peaks and hips, properly overlapped and nailed, completing the sealed ridge over the GAF Cobra ridge vent.
8. Final inspection and cleanup
Full roof walkthrough, verification of all penetration seals and flashing, magnetic nail sweep of the entire property, gutter cleaning, and complete site restoration.
County Roofing Systems Reviews

County Roofing replaced my aging roof and all of the gutters. Keith was truly professional, performing the estimate, supervising the work, and keeping me informed at every step. The results were beautiful. I would not hesitate to recommend County Roofing Systems to anyone.
Our roof was a bit of a tricky project, but Keith’s crew handled every nuance flawlessly—right down to protecting the gutters and surrounding landscaping. The workmanship is top-tier; you can see and feel the quality in every shingle. Equally impressive, Keith was completely transparent about costs and timelines, and his quote was the most competitive we received by a mile.
I had County Roofing Systems install new vinyl siding and gutters and leaders. Keith was very professional as well as personable and really knew his craft. Keith was on site the entire time with his crew. The house came out perfect. Just want to say thanks to Keith and I would give 5 stars plus! Thanks again Keith for all your good work.
Had a fantastic experience with County Roofing! Keith was extremely thorough. He walked through every detail, explained all the color options, and offered thoughtful recommendations that made a big difference. His crew did an outstanding job, and our new roof looks absolutely amazing.
Highly recommend County Roofing to anyone looking for a reliable, skilled roofing team!
Recently had a new roof done by County Roofing, and am so thankful for having met Keith. He is fair with the price, knowledgeable about his work, patient, responsive and professional. It really was a pleasure, and I will definitely be recommending Keith and his crew to anyone I know looking to do roof work.

Roofing FAQs
How long does a roof replacement take on a typical Massapequa home?
Most single-family replacements in Massapequa are completed in one to two days. Homes with deck repairs discovered at tear-off, low-slope sections over rear additions, or storm damage that surfaces during removal may take longer. We give you a realistic schedule before any work begins.
Do you handle permits with the Town of Oyster Bay Building Department?
Yes. County Roofing manages all permit filings and inspections with the Town of Oyster Bay Building Department on every project. We handle everything from start to finish.
My home is near the bay. What shingles do you recommend?
For coastal Massapequa properties, we recommend GAF Timberline HDZ or Owens Corning Duration, both carrying 130 mph wind ratings when installed correctly and use enhanced granule adhesion that holds up better under salt air conditions than standard products. Flashing installation quality is equally important near the water.
My home has been re-roofed before without a full tear-off. Is that a problem?
It means we don’t know the deck condition until we get down to it. Prior layers prevent proper assessment and can mask deterioration that will shorten any new system installed on top. We always do full tear-offs, document everything we find, and replace compromised sheathing before proceeding.
What happens if you find rotted decking during the tear-off?
We photograph the damage, walk you through what we found, and get your sign-off before proceeding with any repairs. Replacing deteriorated sheathing is essential, roofing over a compromised deck shortens the life of everything above it. We price repairs fairly and never inflate findings.
Do you handle siding and windows as well as roofing?
Yes, we’re a full exterior contractor. We install James Hardie and CertainTeed siding, Marvin and Pella replacement windows, and seamless aluminum gutters. Salt air and age tend to affect multiple exterior systems at once, and handling it under one contractor is more efficient.
What financing options are available?
We offer financing with approvals as low as 0% interest, up to 15-year terms, with monthly payments starting at $149. Quick approval, no income check required. Ask about current offers when you call for your estimate.
