COMMERCIAL ROOFING & RESTORATION
QUEENS, NY
MBE-certified commercial roofing contractor for Queens. Multifamily, affordable housing and industrial flat roofs — coastal-rated systems, prevailing wage, self-performed crews.
Trusted by property owners, developers, public agencies, and institutional clients throughout New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut.
Queens runs from dense multifamily neighborhoods to industrial and logistics corridors around JFK and LaGuardia to oceanfront blocks in the Rockaways — and each asks something different of a roof. L&M Roofing has installed and restored commercial roofing across all of it since 1970, as an MBE-certified, self-performing contractor built for New York City's public and institutional work.
Our Queens experience includes new-construction roofing and green roof assemblies on affordable housing in Far Rockaway — where wind exposure and salt air demand coastal-grade detailing — alongside flat-roof replacement and building envelope restoration for multifamily portfolios, warehouses, and institutional buildings across the borough.
WHAT WE DO IN QUEENS
ROOFING SYSTEMS WE INSTALL
On Queens buildings we self-perform the systems the specs call for: modified bitumen and built-up assemblies on industrial and institutional roofs; Siplast Parapro PMMA liquid-applied reroofing on occupied buildings; hot fluid-applied waterproofing beneath vegetated roofs and amenity decks on new construction; and enhanced-uplift fastening and edge-metal detailing for coastal wind zones like the Rockaways. Copings, railings, and gutters are fabricated by our own metal shop — one submittal package, one accountable installer.
Case Study: Beach Green Dunes III — Coastal Affordable Housing, Far Rockaway
At Beach Green Dunes III in Far Rockaway, L&M performed the roofing scope on new energy-efficient affordable housing built a block from the Atlantic — where uplift resistance, flashing details, and membrane selection are tested by coastal wind and salt air. Delivering specified systems on schedule for a development team, under the documentation requirements affordable-housing work carries, is exactly the kind of project our self-performing crews were built for.
QUEENS ROOFING FAQS
What roofing systems hold up in coastal Queens neighborhoods?
Near the water — the Rockaways, Broad Channel, and the coastal edge of the borough — wind uplift and salt exposure drive the design: enhanced fastening patterns, robust edge metal, and membranes detailed for wind-driven rain. We install to the specified uplift requirements and back it with manufacturer warranties. Call (914) 937-1030.
Do you handle industrial and warehouse roofs in Queens?
Yes — large low-slope industrial roofs are core work: modified bitumen, built-up, and cold-applied systems, with phasing planned so operations underneath continue uninterrupted.
Are you MBE certified for city and state work?
Yes — L&M is a certified Minority-Owned Business Enterprise (MBE) with both New York City and New York State, and we regularly perform prevailing-wage public work.
Can you work on occupied buildings without disrupting tenants?
Yes — we phase work, plan protection and staging, and coordinate schedules around residents and operations. Multi-building programs on occupied campuses are a specialty.
