Smart Choice Contracting installs and repairs asphalt roofs throughout Cold Spring Harbor. Michael Falco, the owner, walks the roof and prices the job himself before you ever get a number. We're one of ten Owens Corning Platinum Preferred contractors on Long Island.
We cover the hamlet end to end, the village core around Main Street and Harbor Road, the wooded hills off Goose Hill and Turkey Lane, the properties along 25A, and the streets running down toward the water. Give us the address and Michael will come out, get on the roof, and tell you plainly what he finds.
Cold Spring Harbor is an old whaling village that grew into wooded hills above the water. That means genuinely historic houses near the harbor, larger homes up the slopes, mature tree cover over most of it, and salt air across all of it. Here's what we run into.
Roofs are the whole business, not a sideline. Three ways we help Cold Spring Harbor homeowners.
Asphalt roof replacements across Cold Spring Harbor. Pick one of two complete Owens Corning systems, and our own crew — never a sub — installs it. Warranty coverage reaches 50 years.
Asphalt Shingle InstallationCorroded flashing, chimney leaks, storm damage. When a repair is genuinely the right call, that's what we'll quote. Michael goes up himself and gives you a straight read on repair versus replace.
Emergency Roof RepairAn honest assessment of where your roof stands, with a written estimate and nobody pressuring you. Worth doing before a purchase, before listing, or when your homeowners policy renews.
Leak DetectionWe quote the job as a whole rather than by the square, because square footage alone doesn't tell you what a roof actually needs. Everything gets itemized, so nothing on the invoice is a surprise.Where you fall in that range depends on:
Duration shingles from Owens Corning, Rhino ice and water shield, ProArmor underlayment. The Limited Lifetime material warranty pays 100% on manufacturer defects through year ten, then steps down gradually until year fifty.
The Standard system with the underlayment and leak barrier stepped up to Deck Defense and WeatherLock Mat. That upgrade unlocks the Owens Corning Platinum Warranty, a full fifty years of 100% material coverage, plus fifty years on workmanship, warrantied by Owens Corning rather than by us.
You choose between two complete Owens Corning systems. We install both with the same crew and the same care. The difference is the materials and the warranty.
Only ten contractors on all of Long Island carry Owens Corning Platinum Preferred status. We're one of them, and you can verify it on Owens Corning's contractor locator.
Half a century of coverage on materials and labor both.
Our policy is written for roofing specifically. A lot of general contractor coverage excludes roof work in the fine print.
Book a time and Michael Falco comes to your Cold Spring Harbor home, walks the roof, looks at how we'd get equipment onto the property, and leaves you with an itemized quote. Nobody calls you afterward with a pitch.
