Uniondale is a hamlet in the Town of Hempstead, Nassau County, about 2.4 km from the village of Hempstead. It is served from ZIPs 11553, 11555 and 11556. Calls are answered 24/7, and the roofer who attends holds the Nassau County home-improvement licence.

Uniondale is a hamlet in the Town of Hempstead, close to the village of Hempstead, and it is the site of the Nassau Coliseum complex. The hamlet's roofs take the storm weather of the Long Island coast in the same way as the rest of the area, and the calls come from homes, businesses and the properties around the complex.

A roof in Uniondale is inspected from the outside first. The roofer checks the flashing, the eave and the ridge, then goes into the attic to follow any water route. The inspection is planned around the storm record of the house, and the note says what should be watched after the next nor'easter.

Uniondale calls often come after a storm, when the homeowner sees a stain or a lifted shingle and wants to know whether the damage is storm damage. The roofer documents the damage with photographs and a dated report, so the homeowner can give the evidence to the insurer if they choose.

What makes a hamlet roof call different?

A hamlet roof is often inspected in the same order as a village roof: the outside first, the eave and the flashing next, and the attic last. The route the water takes is followed from inside, since the stain on the ceiling can be several feet from the opening that let it in.

Hamlet homes are often close to their neighbours, and a storm can damage several roofs on the same street at once. The roofer documents each roof separately, so each homeowner has a record for their own house.

What happens when the roof needs repair after a storm?

The first step is the report: where the damage is, whether it looks recent, and what repair is needed now. The second is the temporary cover, if water is still coming in. The third is the permanent repair, scheduled once the report has been shared with the homeowner and the insurer where that applies.

The Nassau County licence applies to the business doing the work. The homeowner can ask for the licence number and check it before the contract is signed, and the phone team can explain which licence applies to a particular job.

Which roof problems come up most in Uniondale?

Wind-lifted shingles at the eaves and the rake, flashing that has pulled away at vents and chimneys, and gutters that have sagged after a heavy storm are the usual calls. Ice dams come up in winter, especially on roofs with attics that are warm and poorly ventilated.

Each call is handled with the same approach: find the route, repair the failed part, check the attic and write the note.

What does a storm record look like for a hamlet roof?

A hamlet roof that has been through several storms needs a clear record. The roofer notes the date of each storm that was inspected, the damage found and the repair made, and the homeowner keeps the record with the house papers.

A record like that is useful when a later storm comes through, because the roofer can see what was there before and what is new. The homeowner decides whether to share the record with an insurer or a buyer.
