Yonkers Roof Pros provides professional flat and low-slope roofs in Yonkers, NY for residential and commercial properties across southwest Westchester. This is the main residential page on this site, and on most roofing sites it is filed under commercial. In Yonkers the flat roof is the house roof. Roughly a quarter of the city's housing units sit in detached single houses; the rest are in two-family, three-family and walk-up buildings.
The census numbers behind that are worth stating plainly, because they explain how we work. American Community Survey table B25024 puts 21,030 of the city's 85,006 housing units in one-unit detached structures, and more than half in buildings of five units or more. County-wide the detached share is almost twice as high. This is not a suburb with some flat roofs on it. Table B25034 puts over a quarter of them in structures built before 1940.
Everything turns on drainage. Where the deck still delivers water to its outlet, the code lets a replacement keep the shallow fall it already has and lets it keep a single drainage path, so the job is a covering job and the price is predictable. Where the water stands, the job becomes a re-slope and the price roughly doubles.
Membrane choice is secondary to that, and we are not religious about it. Sixty-mil TPO welded with hot air suits a clean rectangular deck with few penetrations. Two-ply SBS modified bitumen suits a cut-up roof with parapets, curbs and old flashing conditions, because it is patchable by any competent roofer for the next twenty years and TPO is not. Patchability twenty years from now is a real specification, not a sentiment.
Attachment is where a bid hides its real number. Mechanically attached, fully adhered and ballasted assemblies behave differently in wind, cost differently and load the deck differently, and the fastener pattern in the corners is not the pattern in the field. We name the assembly, the fastener schedule and the zone map on the estimate. A bid with no zone map is a bid with a hole in it.
The drain assembly gets its own line: bowl, clamping ring, strainer, sump, the flashing collar, and the leader below the roof. Those parts fail on a completely different clock from the membrane, they are the most common cause of interior water in this city, and burying them inside a square-foot price is how they get skipped. It is the cheapest line on the estimate and the one that pays for itself first.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — cast-iron drain bowls with replacement clamping rings, tapered polyisocyanurate laid to a quarter-inch board layout, lead-lined through-wall scupper sleeves, torch-applied SBS cap sheet turned up the parapet, gravel-stop edge metal set in two courses of flashing cement, sheet-metal coping caps with concealed splice plates — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Yonkers and nearby communities including Mount Vernon, Bronxville, Tuckahoe, Eastchester.

Materials, equipment and how we do flat and low-slope roofs
The difference between flat and low-slope roofs that lasts and flat and low-slope roofs that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with cast-iron drain bowls with replacement clamping rings, tapered polyisocyanurate laid to a quarter-inch board layout, lead-lined through-wall scupper sleeves, torch-applied SBS cap sheet turned up the parapet, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Yonkers job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in southwest Westchester means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Yonkers Chooses Yonkers Roof Pros
- ✓We settle one question before any other: does this roof still drain. The city's own re-roofing permit hangs two code allowances on that word, and your price hangs on it too.
- ✓A hose test on the low corner with the chalk line and the drain-down time written onto the estimate, rather than a slope guessed at from the sidewalk.
- ✓The drain bowl, clamping ring, strainer and the leader inside the wall chase are itemized apart from the membrane, because they fail on a completely different clock.
- ✓Where the street face is shingle and the deck behind it is membrane, you get two systems, two prices and two service lives, never one figure for the address.
