Power Roofing NYC Shares Winter Roof Prep Checklist to Help New Yorkers Avoid Costly Roof Repair

Brooklyn-based roofer serving all five boroughs explains what to check on flat, shingle and tile roofs before the first freeze

BROOKLYN, N.Y., Sept. 15, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Power Roofing NYC (https://powerroofingnyc.com/), a licensed roof repair and roof replacement contractor that works in all five boroughs, has put out a winter roof prep checklist for New York homeowners and building owners. The checklist is short and free, and it comes straight from crews who have repaired, replaced or installed more than 2,300 roofs across the city since 2010.

So why does winter do so much damage to roofs in this city? Mostly it comes down to the freeze-and-thaw cycle. On a mild afternoon, melt water finds a hairline crack. By 3 a.m. it has frozen and pushed that crack open a bit wider. The city goes through that cycle 40, maybe 50 times a winter, and the crack that would have been a small October fix is a wet ceiling by February.

“Every year we get the same calls, and almost every one of them was preventable,” said Mike Gini, owner of Power Roofing NYC. “Somebody noticed a small stain on the ceiling in the fall and figured it could wait. Then a nor’easter comes through, the snow sits on the roof for a week, and now there’s a bucket in the living room. I’d rather spend an hour on your roof in September than a whole day on it in January with ice everywhere.”

THE WINTER ROOF PREP CHECKLIST

Here is what the company tells its own customers to do before the first hard freeze, which usually lands in the five boroughs somewhere between late November and mid-December. None of it is complicated. Most of it just gets done too late.

  • Get a roof inspection while it’s still mild out. Lifted shingles, open seams, sealant that gave up two summers ago. You can’t see any of that from the sidewalk. A roofer can, in about an hour.
  • Clean out the gutters, downspouts, scuppers and roof drains. Nobody enjoys this one. It is still the single most common reason crews get called out for ice dams on pitched roofs and ponding on flat ones.
  • Knock out the small roof repair items now. A cracked piece of chimney flashing or a loose vent boot is a cheap fall fix. The same problem after it has leaked through the plaster is not.
  • Flat roofs (and that’s most of Brooklyn and Queens): water still sitting there 48 hours after rain is a warning. So are blisters in the membrane and seams that have pulled apart. Older modified bitumen and EPDM roofs on rowhouses love to split at the seams in cold weather, which is exactly when flat roof repair calls pile up.
  • Shingle roofs: curling, cracked or missing shingles, and grit collecting in the gutters. Bare spots let ice slide right under the shingles.
  • Tile roofs: look for tiles that have cracked, chipped or slipped out of line. One bad tile lets water underneath, the water freezes, and the tile beside it goes next.
  • Go up in the attic with a flashlight. Daylight coming through? Damp insulation? Frost on the nail tips? Those point to the real cause of ice dams, which is poor ventilation and thin insulation. Not the snow.
  • Cut back any tree limbs hanging over the roof, because a branch loaded with wet snow will find its way down in every big storm.
  • Save an emergency roof repair number in your phone before you need one. Power Roofing NYC answers (718) 600-1133 around the clock for storm damage, active leaks and emergency tarping.

WHEN A REPAIR IS NOT ENOUGH

Some roofs should not get patched again. A shingle roof past 20 years. A flat roof that has been coated and patched three or four times already. Soft spots all over the place during an inspection. In those cases, Gini says, a full roof replacement in the fall almost always costs less over five years than chasing leaks all winter. There is a practical reason too. Shingles and membranes do not bond well below about 40 degrees, so a fall install simply comes out better than a January one.

“People search roofer near me at 11 o’clock at night when water is coming through the light fixture, and that’s the worst possible time to pick a contractor,” Gini said. “You end up with whoever answers the phone. Get to know a licensed local roofer now, get a free estimate, and you’ll know exactly who to call when something happens. Our customers get the same crew from the estimate to the warranty follow-up, and that matters more than people think.”

Power Roofing NYC is licensed by the New York City Department of Buildings (LIC #2122433), fully insured, GAF-certified and BBB accredited with an A+ rating. Estimates are free and there are no hidden fees. Crews are out seven days a week, from 7 in the morning until 11 at night.

Kelly Roofing Goes Global With First International Tesla Solar Roof

NAPLES, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- Kelly Roofing has completed the first-ever international Tesla Solar Roof installation, marking a significant milestone in green energy innovation. The Florida-based company managed negotiations, logistics, and operations to extend its services into the international field, starting on the island of Nevis in the West Indies. This installation has opened up worldwide possibilities for the next steps in solar roofing installations for Kelly Roofing.

"This job is the pay off of years of work and innovation, it's incredible to watch it come to life," said Kelly Roofing President Ken Kelly. "Our team has been working with Tesla on building the solar roof deployment process from the ground up since they began developing it in 2019. Roofing innovation is what we do. It's what we've been known for for the last fifty years at Kelly Roofing. This client, and this job have brought us to a new level and let us begin to really see the fruit of that labor."

Installing a Tesla Solar Roof internationally required an intricate, multi-faceted, and carefully honed system to complete. Kelly Roofing worked with the customer to understand their goals and negotiated a general price for the raw job. They then navigated duty and tariffs, shipping fees, customs fees, holding fees, and transportation fees. The company's prior experience in these logistics laid the groundwork for the job in Nevis and made the job seamless for the customer.

"We had the advantage of having solid shipping partners in place and a tested process, it was a matter of fitting the pieces together strategically for what this client needed," Ken Said.

The Kelly Roofing team's extensive experience in navigating Florida's stringent roofing codes allowed them to navigate the legal hurdles of Nevis's roofing regulations. The team also partnered with a local contracting team to ease relations with the government and the local community, providing on-the-job training and bringing the job to life.

The Tesla system is unique in its durability and innovation as well. It is connected to an app that is designed to be intuitive for the homeowner, helping control power consumption and usage. The roofs are also designed to last over time, making them hurricane-force-wind resistant and impact resistant to hail. Each tile is independent, allowing for expansion and contraction in extreme temperatures.

"The Tesla system gives peace of mind to our clients. We saw roofs come out of Hurricane Ian basically untouched and the Powerwall system kept up. There were entire blocks where neighbors were charging their phones at the only house with a Tesla Solar Roof because no one else had power," Ken added.

For the homeowner, the Tesla Solar Roof came with a host of benefits, including ease of use and unmatched durability that provide an excellent return on their investment. In Nevis, the homeowner was able to take their home off-grid without interfering with the quality of their day-to-day life.

Kelly Roofing is now vetting and accepting new international Tesla Solar Roof jobs and is thankful and honored to have been a part of building this customer's home.

Rackley Roofing Wins Prestigious 2022 Commercial Roofing Contractor of the Year Award

NASHVILLE, Tenn. /ScoopCloud/ -- "Roofing Contractor," the roofing industry's leading national magazine, recently announced its pick for Commercial Roofing Contractor of the Year - Rackley Roofing. The award was announced at the magazine's 18th annual "Best of Success" conference which took place December 4-6 at the Fairmont Scottsdale Princess in Phoenix, AZ.

"It's such an honor to be recognized as the Commercial Roofing Contractor of the Year," Curtis Sutton, president and CEO, Rackley Roofing, says. "It's clear that our unmatched customer service, safety, and documentation have paid off in more ways than one."

Rackley Roofing practices their core values (humble, hungry, smart, innovative, customer-focused and accountable) daily. Their employee recruitment campaign demonstrates how inclusive they are by empowering people from all walks of life to excel within the company.

"Roofing Contractor" recognized that Rackley Roofing invests in the latest training and doesn't skimp on developing the best people. They saw their passion for community and for pushing boundaries.

"Rackley's purpose and passion shine bright through the way they care about their people. There's so much more I could say about them! We are honored to have them as our Commercial Roofing Contractor of the Year!"

Though all of Rackley Roofing's core values are seen in their day-to-day operations, their core value of "innovate" is a focus for Rackley Roofing as they leverage technology throughout the roofing process. In 2019, they were the recipient of the Roofing Technology Think Tank - RT3 Innovator of the Year award, which honors contractors for technical innovation and product development.

"The Rackley team lives their core values, making marketing their company a true delight. Nothing is fake or exaggerated; they truly are the best of the best," Anna Anderson, CEO of Art Unlimited, a marketing agency, that provides services to Rackley, says.

Sutton's approach to marketing is out-of-the-box, but stays on track - literally. He created a NASCAR team which stems from his love of racing and desire to be the best of the best where he decided to bring these two worlds together. The NASCAR team, Rackley WAR, is bringing the world of roofing to millions of users and daily expands the Rackley Roofing brand saturation.

"When you invest in a brand, you'll see results," Sutton says.

Dallas Roofing Company Expands into Solar offering Solar PV Roofing and Power Backup Systems

DALLAS, Texas /ScoopCloud/ -- The new U.S. Climate bill offers generous incentives, making now an ideal time to go solar expanding the tax credit from 26 percent to 30 percent. Rising energy costs and a struggling Texas power grid are causing many homeowners to look for energy saving options and batteries to power their homes during outages. That's why KPost, a leading Dallas roofing and waterproofing company, is excited to announce that it's recently expanding its service offerings to install Tesla solar roof systems and Powerwall.

Tesla solar roofs take existing roofs and essentially turn them into clean energy machines that are not only practical, but also add a superior aesthetic to your roof. These roofs come with a class A-fire rating, 25-year warranty and a visually-modern appeal while tested to withstand up to 166 mph winds and 1.75" hail.

And, with a true BIVP built-in photovoltaic, if one panel breaks, only that one needs to be found and repaired. The rest will continue to work so there's no wasted energy or downtime. It's a plug and play design.

These Tesla solar roof systems are a win-win for homeowners as they are low-maintenance, save money on electricity and have the added benefit of increasing a home's value. In some cases, a utility will credit homeowners for energy sent to the power grid, which can be applied towards future utility bills. This billing mechanism is called net energy metering (NEM).

Pairing the Tesla solar roof with Powerwall is becoming a preferred system for Texas residents as the power grid is strained due to excessive temperatures and population growth. The Powerwall is an integrated battery system that stores your solar energy for backup protection, so when the grid goes down, power stays on. The system detects outages and automatically recharges with sunlight to keep appliances running for days.

"Rising energy costs have many homeowners interested in installing traditional solar panels on their homes," Matthew Jaynes, vice President of residential, says. "Many solar systems are installed on asphalt shingle roofs which are very susceptible to hail damage and only last about 10-15 years in Texas while the solar panels are expected to last 25 years. The Tesla Solar Roof combines a long-lasting roof system with PV panels saving homeowners over the short and long term. We're looking forward to what the future holds in the solar industry."

About KPost:

KPost Roofing & Waterproofing, a 400+ employee company, is the official Roofing & Waterproofing Partner of the Dallas Cowboys. They have been protecting roofs in the DFW Metroplex for more than 18 years, providing customers with safety, quality and value with each roof installation or repair.

Rackley Roofing to Sponsor Rackley Roofing 200 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series Race

NASHVILLE, Tenn. /ScoopCloud/ -- Rackley Roofing is the title sponsor for the Rackley Roofing 200. This NASCAR race is scheduled to be held on June 24, 7 p.m. Central Time (CDT) at the Nashville Superspeedway, the largest concrete-only track in NASCAR. Their driver, Matt DiBenedetto, will compete in the #25 Rackley WAR truck - a Chevy.

"I'm really excited to represent Rackley Roofing in the Rackley 200. Being with the Rackley WAR NASCAR Camping World Truck Series team this year has been a really good experience, and we're looking forward to meeting all the fans and Rackley folks here in Nashville," DiBenedetto says.

Rackley WAR, a professional sports team, offers motorsports marketing, management and development services for professional race car drivers, race teams and industry sponsors. It fields race vehicles in the Camping World Truck Series, the only series in NASCAR to race production pickup truck-based stock cars.

This year is even more exciting for the Rackley crew because as an added bonus - the Nashville Superspeedway is partnering with Middle Tennessee State University and the Charlie and Hazel Daniels Veteran's and Military Family Center to support the military, veterans and the families of those who have served.

"We're excited to be back at the Nashville Superspeedway for a second year," Curtis Sutton, president and CEO, Rackley Roofing, says. "This track is always a lot of fun because it's close to home and many of our friends and family get to come out and support Rackley and the #25."

While the official start time for the race is 7 p.m. Central Time (CDT), the FanZone will open at 2 p.m., so people can really make a great day of it. The FanZone is open to the general public and will feature live music and K9 performances, interactive experiences such as axe throwing, bumper cars and inflatables for kids, food and beverage options along with race and driver merchandise, and much more!

KPost's complex scope of work included installing approximately 450,000 square feet of Carlisle's single-ply KEE PVC, a fleece-backed membrane for hail damage protection, and Liquiseal in gray to waterproof the steel structures penetrating the roof.

"For years, ABC has been honored to award outstanding construction projects like the Globe Life Field by KPost," said 2022 National Chair of the ABC Board of Directors Stephanie Schmidt, president, Poole Anderson Construction, State College, Pennsylvania. "Through hard work on this project, KPost shows the value of teamwork, overcoming challenges and creativity on the jobsite."

The EIC award honors all construction team members, including the contractor, owner, architect and engineer. The winning projects are judged on complexity, attractiveness, unique challenges overcome, completion time, workmanship, innovation and safety.

A panel of industry experts served as the competition's judges.

Kelly Roofing Celebrates 50 Years of Helping Florida Roof Owners

NAPLES, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- Kelly Roofing, an award-winning roofing company, celebrates their 50th anniversary on June 13, 2022. The company was founded by Joe Kelly, Sr., in 1972 and is now run by his son, Ken Kelly. For decades, Kelly Roofing has helped Florida homeowners extend the lifespan of their roofs, and they plan to expand geographically in the coming years.

"When my father started the business, he was a journeyman roofer and painter," Ken explains. "Collier County started requiring licensure, and he had to choose between painting and roofing. He chose roofing." Ken didn't know it at the time, but this decision would shape his future. When his father was injured in 1993, Ken took over the business at the age of 17 (learn more at https://www.kellyroofing.com/blog/historic-50-years-and-future).

As President of Kelly Roofing, Ken has always recognized the value of proper roof installation and maintenance. The company's slogan is "Never Have to Worry About Your Roof Again." Due to poor installation practices and harsh weather, many Florida roofs are failing prematurely. Kelly's services have allowed many customers to double the life of their roofs. Many never have to replace their roofs again in their lifetimes.

What Kelly Roofing does, works. Ken Kelly believes the company has a winning model with great people, systems and products. He does, however, plan to expand the business into new markets in the coming years. Kelly is excited to help even more residents worry less about their roofs.

This year also brought another exciting change for Kelly Roofing. Ken's son recently joined the business. "I'm proud that we are now a three-generation roofing business," says Ken. "As a family, roofing has been our passion for the last 50 years, and we plan to keep it that way for at least 50 more." Plans for an anniversary celebration are underway. Those who wish to learn more can contact Kelly Roofing at 239-228-3276.

About Kelly:

Kelly Roofing is America's Roofing Contractor of the Year, serving the Florida market since 1972. They are family-owned and have helped over 60,000 roof owners save money and live a worry-free life. Kelly Roofing understands how to eliminate the stress of unexpected roof costs.

Fontana Paper Mills Adds a New Product to The Family

FONTANA, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- Fontana Paper Mills is proud to announce a new 6% + SBS modified multipurpose underlayment, otherwise known as M40. It has an organic core with a 6% + SBS modified asphalt coating and Fontana's familiar high grip surface.

M40 is similar to our G40 but has the advantage of availability, price, enhanced flexibility while preserving the weather-ability, and extended life of a modified asphalt. M40 carries the Fontana Premium Leak warranty when applied in accordance with the enhanced provisions of the TRI moderate climate specifications by a TRI certified roofing contractor.

"M40 is a special product because Fontana is able to control the quality of the asphalt viscosity and the melting point. By controlling all aspects of M40's manufacturing process M40 is more flexible. A more flexible product makes the roofers job easier. Roofers have found they have less product break while installing M40 and it does cold bends very well," stated George Thagard, President of Fontana Paper Mills.

"M40 also has increased longevity because it is not as sensitive to UV as other underlayments are; thus it doesn't break down as quickly. M40 also has superior nail sealing ability which will decrease the risk of roof leakage due to installation."

M40 is also a more affordable product. Fontana, as a manufacturer, is able to keep the costs low while maintaining their high quality underlayment standards, which makes the product more affordable for the roofer.

About Fontana Paper Mills:

Fontana Paper Mills is a roofing underlayment manufacturing plant located on 15 acres in Fontana, California. It was started by George Thagard III, Jeff Thagard and Ray Thagard Jr. in 1987. Fontana produces well known products such as Vulca Seal G40, Vulca Seal Organic base 40#, 30# and many others. Their newest member of the product family is Vulca Seal M40.
