"The North Shore has some of the most interesting houses on Long Island and some of the most demanding roofs. You've got hundred-year-old homes down by the harbor with slate and cedar, and ranches a few miles inland that need something completely different. We work on all of it, and that's not true of every contractor out here."
County Roofing has expanded its service area across Suffolk County's North Shore, covering Port Jefferson, the Setaukets, Stony Brook, Mount Sinai, Miller Place, and surrounding communities.
MELVILLE, N.Y. - August 19, 2026 - County Roofing, a roofing contractor operating on Long Island since 1987, has expanded its service area across Suffolk County's North Shore, with coverage centered on Port Jefferson and the surrounding communities.

The expanded area includes Port Jefferson village and Port Jefferson Station, along with Setauket, East Setauket, Stony Brook, Old Field, and Poquott to the west, Terryville, Coram, and Selden to the south, and Belle Terre, Mount Sinai, Miller Place, Rocky Point, and Sound Beach to the east.

The North Shore presents a wider range of roofing conditions than most Long Island markets. Port Jefferson's shipbuilding era left the village with Victorians, Colonials, and captain's houses that have stood for well over a century, many carrying steep pitches, dormers, and intricate rooflines. Some retain their original slate or cedar. A few miles south, the housing shifts to postwar ranches, Capes, and splits, with newer construction mixed throughout.

That range means no single approach works across the area. A slate roof on a village home and an asphalt roof on a Station ranch require different materials and different expertise, and many contractors work in only one of them.

Weather adds another factor. North Shore homes face Long Island Sound, and nor'easters arrive from the northeast carrying wind and rain directly onto that exposure. Port Jefferson's steep terrain intensifies it, since homes sitting high above the harbor catch wind that lower properties never feel. Salt air off the Sound also corrodes flashing and fasteners, which is why roofs in the area frequently fail at the transitions before the surface material wears out.

"The North Shore has some of the most interesting houses on Long Island and some of the most demanding roofs," said Keith Schmied, founder and CEO of County Roofing. "You've got hundred-year-old homes down by the harbor with slate and cedar, and ranches a few miles inland that need something completely different. We work in all of it, and that's not true of every contractor out here."

Permitting in the area varies by address. The incorporated Village of Port Jefferson operates its own building department, as do neighboring Belle Terre and Poquott, while Port Jefferson Station, Terryville, Mount Sinai, and Miller Place are unincorporated and permit through the Town of Brookhaven. County Roofing handles the permitting process for its customers in either case.

The company holds elite certification from all three major roofing manufacturers, GAF Master Elite, Owens Corning Platinum Preferred, and CertainTeed ShingleMaster PREMIER, a combination reached by a small percentage of contractors nationwide. The certifications allow the company to offer enhanced manufacturer warranty coverage that is not available through non-certified installers.

Services available across the expanded area include roof replacement, repair, installation, and inspection, along with commercial flat roofing, gutters, siding, and windows. Roof inspections are offered at no cost, every crew member is a direct employee rather than a subcontractor, and emergency response is available around the clock.

County Roofing is headquartered in Melville and operates additional offices in Hauppauge, Massapequa, Forest Hills, and Tarrytown. The company is led by Schmied, who founded it in 1987 and remains directly involved in its projects.
