New Rochelle Premium Roofing provides professional flat and low-slope roofing in New Rochelle, NY for residential and commercial properties across Westchester County. Most flat roofing in New Rochelle is a small deck attached to a pitched house. Porch roofs, dormer tops, rear additions and the connectors between wings carry more leak calls per square foot than any other surface in the city.
They leak at the connection, not in the middle. Where a low-slope deck meets a slate or shingle wall above, the detail has to be a soldered pan or a properly counterflashed membrane turned up behind the covering and let into the wall. What is usually there instead is a strip of roll roofing tarred to the siding, which sheds for a few years and then quietly wicks. Wicking is slow, quiet and structural.
We build those decks in self-adhered and cold-applied SBS modified bitumen, two ply, or in fully adhered EPDM where the geometry is simple enough. No torch and no hot kettle goes on a residential property here, because an open flame against century-old board sheathing and dry balloon framing is a risk with no offsetting upside on a roof this small. Cold-applied systems reach the same performance without a burner on the property.
Drainage gets designed before the membrane is chosen. A dead-level porch deck gets tapered insulation or furring built in, scuppers or an interior drain sized to the actual area, and an overflow set above the primary outlet. Ponding on a small deck is not cosmetic; standing water finds every seam and roughly doubles the rate at which the membrane ages. Drainage is designed once and paid for either way.
The perimeter is where we spend the money. Edge metal is fabricated and cleated rather than face-nailed, corners are welded or fully wrapped, and the membrane is turned up a minimum of eight inches at any wall. Those details cost a few hundred dollars each and prevent the large majority of the callbacks we get sent to on other people's work. Callbacks are expensive for us and worse for you.
On commercial and multifamily low-slope we work in sixty-mil TPO, EPDM and two-ply modified bitumen, with polyisocyanurate and a cover board over steel or concrete deck. Roof access hatches, condenser curbs and any equipment set since the last roof went on are re-flashed as part of the scope rather than left as somebody else's problem. A curb added by an HVAC contractor last year is not a reason for the roof to leak.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — lead-coated copper step and pan flashing, twenty-ounce cold-rolled copper valley linings, slate rippers and copper bib repairs, stainless slate hooks set at the head lap, semi-weathering gray and unfading green roofing slate, terne-coated stainless bay-roof pans — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve New Rochelle and nearby communities including Larchmont, Mamaroneck, Pelham, Pelham Manor.

Materials, equipment and how we do flat and low-slope roofing
The difference between flat and low-slope roofing that lasts and flat and low-slope roofing that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with lead-coated copper step and pan flashing, twenty-ounce cold-rolled copper valley linings, slate rippers and copper bib repairs, stainless slate hooks set at the head lap, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every New Rochelle job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in Westchester County means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why New Rochelle Chooses New Rochelle Premium Roofing
- ✓We give the covering, the flashing metal and the fasteners three separate remaining-life numbers, because on a Westchester roof they almost never run out together
- ✓Slate relay and full replacement are quoted as two priced lines, with the expected breakage percentage written down before anyone climbs
- ✓We will not coat slate, clay tile or an asphalt shingle roof, and we will explain on site what a coating does to the salvage value
- ✓Every slate we lift comes off with a ripper and goes back on a copper nail or a stainless hook, never face-nailed through the exposure
The standards behind flat and low-slope roofing
Quality here is not a matter of opinion — it is written down.

If a contractor cannot tell you which standard a detail comes from, that is worth asking about before you sign.
