A roofer in this corridor handles the steady residential roof-replacement work that comes with aging mid-century rowhouses.
South Queens rowhouse roofing
Ozone Park, Richmond Hill, and the adjacent neighborhoods have one of New York City’s densest concentrations of attached rowhouses built between 1920 and 1960. Most have flat or low-slope roofs covered in either modified bitumen or rolled roofing. The replacement cycle is typically 15-25 years; many of these homes are now on their third generation of roof.
The rolled-roofing-versus-modified-bitumen decision
Rolled asphalt roofing is the cheapest option and lasts 8-12 years; modified bitumen is mid-tier at 20-25 years; TPO or EPDM is the longest-lasting at 25-30 years. For owners planning to stay in the property long-term, the modified bitumen or single-ply options usually pay back through fewer replacements over the holding period.
