MB1 Home Improvement | General Contractors & Roofing in Inwood, NY 11096

It depends on the extent of the damage. For Inwood homes, a leak after a thaw often indicates compromised shingles or flashing. We'll conduct a thorough inspection to assess if localized repair or a partial re-roof is sufficient. However, if we find widespread granule loss or underlying deck rot—common issues here—a full replacement with high-quality, weather-resistant materials may be the most cost-effective, long-term solution to prevent recurring problems.

Overflowing gutters are a major cause of siding and foundation damage in our area, especially with heavy spring rains and snowmelt. We recommend a two-step approach: First, we'll clean or repair your existing gutters to ensure proper flow. If they're old or undersized, we often suggest a gutter replacement or addition with larger downspouts. Then, we can inspect and repair any siding that's been water-damaged. Properly installed gutters and siding work together to direct water away from your home's structure.

Absolutely. As a full-service general contractor, MB1 manages building additions from design to completion. A critical part of any new room or bathroom addition is seamlessly integrating the new roof with the existing structure. We pay meticulous attention to flashing details, ice and water shield installation, and matching shingle lines to prevent leaks at the connection points—a common failure area. You get a single, accountable team ensuring your addition is built solidly and protected against Long Island's weather from day one.
