About New Paltz, Ulster County
New Paltz sits in Ulster County on the eastern shore of the Wallkill River, which flows north into the Rondout Creek and eventually the Hudson, beneath the Shawangunk Ridge. Founded in 1678 by French Huguenot settlers, the village preserves the stone houses of Historic Huguenot Street, among the oldest surviving European-built stone houses in North America. It is also home to SUNY New Paltz, founded in 1828, the New Paltz Downtown Historic District, and the Wallkill Valley Rail Trail on a former rail corridor. Nearby are the Mohonk Preserve, Minnewaska State Park, and the Mohonk Mountain House in the Shawangunks. That mountain-valley setting brings meaningful snow and ice, so the village's mix of very old and newer homes needs roofing that can take the weather.

Siding, Timing, and Serving New Paltz
Siding needs in New Paltz reflect that same mix of very old and newer homes. On historic and character homes we work to preserve original profiles and trim so the building keeps its identity, while on newer houses near campus and the Wallkill Valley Rail Trail, insulated vinyl or fiber-cement gives strong, low-maintenance protection against wet, freezing weather. As always, the details behind the siding do the real work: solid flashing around windows and doors, a proper drainage plane, and tight seams that keep wind-driven rain and snowmelt out of the wall.
With genuine snow and ice each winter, we schedule full roof and siding projects for the warmer, drier stretch of the year when materials cure reliably, and we stay ready for storm damage in the cold months. When wind or ice tears a roof or opens a leak, we tarp and stabilize it quickly to protect the interior, then come back for a lasting repair once conditions are right.
SSKM Construction Corp serves New Paltz and the surrounding Ulster County communities along the Wallkill and beneath the Shawangunk Ridge. With 25-plus years of experience, fully licensed and insured, we offer free estimates and honest guidance on any roofing or siding project.

Getting Started on Your New Paltz Project
New Paltz has a housing mix as varied as its setting, from the centuries-old stone houses of Historic Huguenot Street to newer homes spread out toward the Wallkill River and beneath the Shawangunk Ridge, with the presence of SUNY New Paltz adding to the town's steady mix of very old and more recent construction. That range means the right starting point is always a real look at your specific home, since a stone house and a newer build call for very different work. When you reach out to SSKM, we come out, assess what your home actually needs, and provide a free, clear estimate you can plan around.
That honest first step is what New Paltz homeowners tend to value most, whether the project is a roof, siding, a deck to take in the ridge views, or an interior remodel. With more than 25 years of experience and a 5.0-star rating across 48 reviews, Luis and Steven give you straightforward guidance on what makes sense for your home and what does not, so you start the project informed. Getting going is as easy as a phone call and a walkthrough of your property.

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.
Getting There
Getting to New Paltz From Our Shop
New Paltz is a straight run north on I-87, the New York State Thruway, to Exit 18. NY 299 takes us into the village from the interchange, and NY 32 and NY 208 serve the rest of the town. That keeps the trip simple even when we are running a crew and a dumpster out for a full tear-off.

New Paltz Roofing: Frequently Asked Questions
Do you work on the older stone and historic homes in New Paltz?
Yes. New Paltz has some of the oldest stone houses in North America along Historic Huguenot Street plus homes in the downtown historic district, and SSKM Construction handles roofing on old and mixed construction with care for each building's age.
How much do snow and ice affect roofs here?
New Paltz sits below the Shawangunk Ridge and Mohonk highlands, which bring real snow and freeze-thaw cycles. Ice dams are a genuine winter risk, so we focus on ventilation, insulation, and flashing to keep meltwater draining properly.
Can you repair storm damage near the Wallkill River?
Yes. Homes along the Wallkill River corridor catch wind-driven rain and storms. We inspect after weather for lifted shingles and flashing leaks and make repairs before water reaches the interior.
Do you do siding along with roofing?
We do both. New Paltz homes, old and new, often need siding, trim, and flashing updated with the roof, and combining the work keeps the whole exterior sealed against mountain-valley weather.
We pull the permits our work needs and deal with the inspections. If you want to check the requirements yourself, New Paltz permits and inspections are handled by the town, and current requirements are listed on the Town of New Paltz official site.
