Real Reviews

The roof was completely done and cleaned up in 2 days, his guys had even cleaned out my gutters.
SSKM Construction did an outstanding job replacing the sheathing and removing and replacing the existing siding on my home.
It has been a pleasure and honor to work with Luis and his crew for the past 5 years.
Luis and his crew did a great job swapping out two nasty pull-out windows in my basement.

About Poughkeepsie, Dutchess County
Poughkeepsie sits on the Hudson River in western Dutchess County, roughly 75 miles north of Manhattan, rising from the riverfront to its highest point at 380-foot College Hill. The city is defined by landmarks like the Walkway Over the Hudson, a restored 1889 railroad bridge reopened as a pedestrian park in 2009, the 1930 Mid-Hudson Bridge, and the Bardavon 1869 Opera House. Its seven historic districts, including Union Street, Academy Street, and Garfield Place, are rich with Victorian and Gilded Age homes. The region's humid continental climate brings cold winters that regularly dip below zero and exposure to nor'easters, so the older, ornate roofs across these neighborhoods need durable, well-maintained systems to hold up.

How we approach roof repair in Poughkeepsie
A leak inside a Poughkeepsie home almost never starts directly above the stain on the ceiling, water travels along rafters and sheathing before it shows itself, which is why guessing at the source usually means paying twice. We trace every leak back to where it is actually entering, whether that is failed step flashing at a chimney, a cracked pipe boot, or wind-driven rain finding a gap at a roof-to-wall transition, before we quote a fix.
Ice dams are a regular call in Poughkeepsie and across the Hudson Valley: heat escaping into the attic melts snow on the roof, which refreezes at the cold eave and backs water up under the shingles. We repair the resulting damage, but a lasting fix usually means addressing the ventilation and insulation that caused the dam in the first place, and we'll tell you plainly if that is what your roof needs. Flat and low-slope sections over porches, dormers, and additions are common here too, and they use membrane systems with their own repair approach, seams and flashing rather than shingles.

Why Poughkeepsie homeowners choose SSKM for roof repair
An active leak does not wait for a convenient time, and how fast a contractor responds, and how honestly they diagnose the actual problem, matters more on a repair call than almost any other job. Poughkeepsie homeowners call SSKM because we treat an active leak as urgent, trace it to the real source instead of patching the symptom, and tell you plainly when a repair makes sense versus when a roof is past that point. With 25-plus years in the trade, a 5.0-star rating on Google, and insurance in place, every Poughkeepsie repair estimate is free and put in writing.

Good to Know
Poughkeepsie roof repair: frequently asked questions
How quickly can you look at a roof leak in Poughkeepsie, NY?
Call us at (845) 549-7944 and we will get out to assess it. An active leak is treated as urgent, because the longer water sits in a roof assembly the more it costs to put right.
Can you repair the roof instead of replacing it on a Poughkeepsie home?
Often, yes. If the damage is localized and the rest of the roof still has service life, a correct repair is the sensible option. We will tell you plainly when a roof is past that point rather than sell a replacement it does not need.
Do you repair flat and low-slope roofs in Poughkeepsie?
Yes. Flat and low-slope sections over porches, dormers and additions are common here, and they use membrane systems rather than shingles. Seam and flashing repairs on those are a different skill set and part of our regular work.
What causes ice dams in Poughkeepsie, and can a repair stop them?
Ice dams form when heat escaping into the attic melts snow that then refreezes at the cold eave. We repair the resulting damage, but a lasting fix usually needs the ventilation and insulation addressed too.
Is the roof repair estimate really free in Poughkeepsie?
Yes. We inspect the roof and give you a written quote at no cost and no obligation.
We pull the permits our work needs and deal with the inspections. If you want to check the requirements yourself, Poughkeepsie permits and inspections are handled by the city, and current requirements are listed on the City of Poughkeepsie official site.
Question we did not answer? Ask it on the phone. You will get a straight answer from an owner, not a script.
