North Syracuse is a compact village split between the towns of Clay and Salina, just north of the city and close to Syracuse Hancock International Airport. The housing is mostly post-war: capes and small ranches on narrow lots, many with a dormer added later and a detached garage out back. These are simple roofs, which is good news. A replacement on one is usually a fast, straightforward job.
The usual problems are just as simple. Shingles that have outlived their warranty. A dormer that was added without proper flashing at its sides. Pipe boots cracked by years of cold. And ice along the eaves on capes whose upstairs rooms sit right under the roof. On a lot of these houses, a well-done replacement with eave protection and a ridge vent is the last roof the owner will have to think about for a long time.
Because the lots are tight, we plan the dumpster and the debris path with you before the job, and we protect the neighbor's side as well as yours. Permits for full replacements come from the Village of North Syracuse.

North Syracuse roofing questions
How long does a roof take on a small cape?
Usually a single day, start to cleanup, unless there's a lot of decking to replace.
Will the dumpster fit in my driveway?
We size it for the lot and set it on boards to protect the driveway. On very tight lots we use a smaller container or a trailer.
