Editorial Review
Our Take on NY Roofing
NY Roofing earns its place on the strength of detailed flat roof reviews from Park Slope, South Slope and Canarsie buildings, backed by a perfect 5.0 rating. We would still ask for the licence details, insurance certificate and warranty in writing, since the website publishes none of them.
Best forBrooklyn brownstone and condo flat roofs
What We Like
- Perfect 5.0 Google rating from 165 reviews, read October 19, 2026
- In business since 1988, per the company website
- Reviewers describe flat roof work on Park Slope, South Slope and Canarsie buildings
- A South Slope condo roof was replaced in two days, with a 20-year warranty on the membrane
- Google lists the office as open 24 hours, and the site offers emergency roofing and free estimates
Things to Consider
- The website names no owners or managers and gives no licence number, so ask for licence and insurance details in writing.
- No warranty terms are published on the site; the 20-year warranty comes from one reviewer, so get yours in writing.
- The reviews we read were mostly flat roof jobs, so owners of steep shingle roofs should ask for similar local examples.

Company Background
About NY Roofing
If your building sits in Park Slope or South Slope and the roof keeps leaking, NY Roofing at 553 Prospect Ave, on the Windsor Terrace edge of Brooklyn, is a local flat roof contractor worth a call. The company says it has worked since 1988, and its website describes more than three decades in the trade. Its Google profile shows 5.0 from 165 Google reviews, read October 19, 2026.
Most of the work described by reviewers is flat roofing on brownstones, condominiums and row houses. A South Slope condo board reported a full replacement with waterproofing, parapet wall flashings and a fix for years of ponding water, finished in two days with a crane lifting the materials. The building now holds a 20-year warranty on the rubber membrane. A Canarsie homeowner described a one day flat roof replacement with new decking, a skylight, gutters and metal coping, after Mike spent more than an hour inspecting the property. Another Brooklyn owner said the crew ran a water test and traced a brownstone bulkhead leak to HVAC penetrations and failing stucco. A commercial client credited Rob with managing a flat roof replacement on schedule.
The website lists flat roofing with EPDM and TPO, shingle, metal, clay tile and slate, plus skylights, gutters, siding, masonry, inspections, leak detection and emergency repair. It names Brooklyn neighborhoods including Prospect Park, Park Slope, Bed-Stuy, Crown Heights, Williamsburg, Bushwick and Brooklyn Heights, and it also serves Manhattan and the Bronx. Google lists the office as open 24 hours, and estimates are free.
A few gaps are worth knowing. The site names no owners or managers, gives no licence number and publishes no warranty terms, so confirm anything beyond the reviews in writing. The reviews we read were all five stars, so we found no complaint to report.
NY Roofing suits owners of brownstones, co-ops and small commercial buildings with flat or low slope roofs, especially where earlier roofers failed to stop a leak. It suits less well anyone who wants a steep roof shingle specialist or a published price list. Before booking, ask for the written warranty, proof of insurance and the permit plan. New York State has no statewide roofing licence, so check the contractor's home improvement licence on the New York City Department of Consumer and Worker Protection (DCWP) lookup at nyc.gov/dcwp, and ask about permits with the NYC Department of Buildings.

NY Roofing FAQs
Is NY Roofing licensed and insured in New York City?
NY Roofing says on its website that it is fully licensed and insured, but it publishes no licence number. New York State has no statewide roofing licence, so check the contractor's home improvement licence on the New York City Department of Consumer and Worker Protection (DCWP) lookup at nyc.gov/dcwp, and ask for a current insurance certificate before signing. A South Slope condo board also wrote in a Google review that the company showed proper insurance, paperwork and certifications. Permits for roofing work go through the NYC Department of Buildings, so ask who files them and get that answer in writing. The company also cites a BBB A+ rating on its site, which is worth confirming on the BBB's own page.
Does NY Roofing offer emergency roof repair and free estimates?
Yes, NY Roofing lists emergency roofing and emergency repair on its website, and Google shows the office as open 24 hours, seven days a week. The site also offers free estimates, which it says are based on the actual roof type and site conditions. It gives no promised response time, so ask when a crew can reach your building when you call. The office is at 553 Prospect Ave in Brooklyn and the phone number is (646) 838-0441. For a leak that keeps returning, one reviewer said the company ran an on-site water test to find the source before quoting the repair.
Which parts of New York City does NY Roofing serve, and what warranty does it give?
NY Roofing serves Brooklyn, Manhattan and the Bronx, and its website has pages for Park Slope, Prospect Park, Bed-Stuy, Crown Heights, Williamsburg, Bushwick and Brooklyn Heights. Its FAQ page also says it works across NYC depending on project scope. The website publishes no warranty terms. One South Slope condo board reported a 20-year warranty on its new flat rubber roof system, but terms can differ by job, so ask for the written warranty and what it covers before you sign. The site does not mention financing or payment methods either, so raise both when you request an estimate.
