Larchmont, NY Roof Repair, Roof Replacement & Siding

When a Larchmont, NY homeowner reached out to Double R A Construction Corp for a free roof estimate, our inspection uncovered a common but serious problem for residential flat roofs: the rubber membrane had begun separating from the parapet wall, creating an open pathway for moisture to seep beneath the surface and into the roof decking. Left unaddressed, this kind of separation can lead to trapped water, wood rot, and costly structural damage long before a leak ever shows up inside the home. As one of Westchester County's most trusted flat roof contractors, our team knows that catching this early, during a professional roof inspection, is the difference between a manageable repair and a full-scale replacement.

During the same inspection, our crew also identified cracking in the membrane around the chimney stack, a vulnerable transition point where flat roofing membranes are especially prone to failure over time. Chimney flashing and membrane seams take a beating from thermal expansion, weather exposure, and age, and once cracks form, they rarely stay isolated. Between the parapet wall separation and the chimney stack cracking, this Larchmont flat roof had multiple, independent points of failure, a clear sign that a patch-and-repair approach would only delay further water infiltration and decking damage.

After a thorough evaluation, Double R A Construction Corp determined that a full membrane replacement was the only responsible long-term solution for this Larchmont homeowner. Rather than spot-repairing isolated trouble areas, our team recommended a complete flat roof membrane replacement to protect the home's structural integrity and prevent recurring leaks. If you own a home with a flat roof in Larchmont, New Rochelle, Rye, or anywhere throughout Westchester County, and you've noticed signs of membrane wear, ponding water, or cracking near roof penetrations, contact Double R A Construction Corp today for a free flat roof estimate.

When high winds swept through Larchmont, NY, during a recent storm, a heavy branch struck the skylight dome of a beautiful 99-year-old home, cracking it open and putting the property at risk of water intrusion. Double R A Construction responded to evaluate the damage and is currently exploring a full skylight replacement to bring the home back to full protection. For historic homes like this one, skylight repairs require extra care to preserve both function and the character of the original structure.

During the inspection, our team also examined the flat roof surrounding the skylight and discovered it showing clear signs of wear consistent with age and years of exposure to harsh weather. Flat roofs are especially vulnerable to seam separation, ponding water, and membrane deterioration over time, issues that can lead to serious water damage if ignored. Rather than simply patching the immediate damage, we made sure the homeowner understood the full picture so they can plan and avoid a costlier emergency repair down the road.

Double R A Construction has spent decades helping homeowners throughout Larchmont and Westchester County navigate roof repair, skylight replacement, and flat roof restoration, especially on older, historic properties that require a more thoughtful approach. If your home has recently taken storm damage or you're concerned about the age of your flat roof, reach out for a free, no-obligation estimate.

In coastal Westchester communities like Larchmont, NY, older homes often have basements that were never designed for living space, low light, limited ventilation, and no compliant emergency exit. As more homeowners in the area look to maximize square footage and add a legal bedroom or rec room space below grade, egress window installation has become one of the most requested services Double R A Construction Corp handles across its Westchester and Fairfield County service area.

This Larchmont project is a clear example of why the work matters. Installing a properly sized egress window transforms a basement from a code-deficient storage area into a space that's safe, insurable, and genuinely functional. Double R A has been completing window installations across Westchester County since 1960, from straightforward replacement windows in White Plains and Scarsdale to more complex structural work like this egress install near the Long Island Sound. Their familiarity with local building departments, soil conditions, and the drainage demands of shoreline properties makes the process smoother from permit to completion.

For Larchmont and Mamaroneck homeowners exploring a basement conversion or addition, the egress window is where it starts, and having an experienced, locally rooted contractor handle the install means it's done right the first time.

Double R A Construction recently helped a homeowner in Larchmont, NY, by replacing their flat roof and ridge caps—two critical repairs that were long overdue. During our inspection, it became clear that the roof was in serious trouble. The flat roof had started to peel back, exposing the decking, while the old ridge caps had completely vanished.

Without the ridge caps, the roof was left vulnerable to water and moisture, which almost certainly would lead to decking rot and mold. In fact, we could already see signs of water seeping under the shingles and decking, causing damage inside the home. We also found several shingles that were warped and lifting, which only made matters worse.

To prevent further damage, we replaced the roof and sealed the ridge caps. This work will help protect the home for now, buying the homeowner some time before a full roof replacement is needed. For more about our roofing services, check out our roof repair page.
