Needed a 4x4 section = 20ft of vinyl siding repaired/ replaced in Yonkers. I was quoted $2000 dollars, pretty much $100 a foot for vinyl siding and install. That being said they wanted 1500$ before starting the work. Never pay anyone …

John, we understand that pricing is a key consideration, and we’re sorry to hear that our quote didn’t align with your expectations. The cost reflects the high-quality materials we use and the urgency of getting a skilled crew on-site, particularly with the storm approaching, to prevent additional damage to your siding. If you’d like to discuss your concerns further, we’d be happy to connect and explore how we can better address your needs. Please don’t hesitate to reach out directly.

Made appointment Kevin arrived at 9:33am, left at 9:41am, did not enter the property/home. Stood in the driveway. Look at the photos I had on my phone, took pics of the roof from the ground floor, asked me to send them to him and said he would send a quote. Will not be doing business with them.

If I can give them a 0 star review I would. They are a horrible company that does bad work, and when you have a leak that they created, they will not come back and fix it. They are unresponsive and they lie to their customers, saying that they fixed something, even though they did not! I would never use this company again, nor would I encourage anyone as well!

William, it is very odd that we don't have your name in our database ... we have experienced competitors leaving us negative reviews in the past, so this leads us to believe you may be trying to slander our positive reputation. However, if this is a legitimate claim, we are sorry to hear about this inconvenience you have experienced. At J. Salvatore & Sons we strive to provide excellent customer service. Please contact us at (718) 548-0100 so that we can verify having done work with you and address any issues relating to our work if necessary.

Did not properly account for soot and debris which went into air handlers causing significant damage to property and professional cleaning.

While they haven't done anything yet, I was more than happy that George from J. Salvatore actually called me back today. George was kind enough to prepare an estimate. He even drove to my home the same day to look at the project. We're still working on how best to fix my gutter problem. I just had to give a shout-out to George for actually returning my call and showing up. Too many don't do that these days.

After years of patchwork fixes from different contractors, I finally went with them for a proper inspection. They didn’t jump straight into selling a replacement, which I appreciated. Instead, they documented problem areas like cracked …

I hired this company because they installed my roof 25 years ago and have never had a problem. Recently I had a gutter break off due to the last storm. They did an amazing job. I highly recommend them

We hired Salvatore to replace our 28 year old roof with a new GAF roof. It was 100% an Outstanding Experience dealing with everyone at Salvatore. From the first visit by their sales rep, to the quote to the ensuing discussions, awarding of the job, and most especially, the quality of the work and of their crew - I couldn't have had a better experience. They did exactly what they said they would do. They did not try to add unnecessary options, extras and didn't try to upsell. They were as professional as it gets.

Chose J. Salvatore for replacement of my flat roof after seeing the great work done on my neighbors' roofs. The crew was on time each day, clean and courteous. Couldn't ask for more. Highly recommend!

They were extremely helpful, prompt, and communicative! We are first time home buyers and had an offer accepted on a home with an older slate roof. George helped us schedule a roof inspection the very next day. We got a better understanding of the health of the roof, cost of maintenance, expected remaining life, and estimated cost for a full replacement. It was a great experience!

Summer storms in Westchester County can bring heavy rain, strong winds, and sudden weather changes that can test the strength of your roofing system. Many homeowners ask, “How can I prepare my roof before storm season?” Preventative maintenance and regular inspections can help identify weak areas before severe weather causes damage. Important steps include checking for missing or damaged shingles, ensuring gutters are clear, inspecting flashing around roof openings, and addressing small repairs before they become larger issues. A properly maintained roof helps direct water away from your home and protects your interior spaces from moisture damage. Joseph Salvatore & Sons Roofing provides roof inspections, repairs, and maintenance services designed to help homeowners protect their properties. Our team evaluates your roof’s condition and explains any areas that may need attention. We work with homeowners throughout Westchester County to provide dependable roofing solutions and clear recommendations. Taking time to inspect your roof before summer storms can provide valuable peace of mind. If you are unsure whether your roof is ready for changing weather conditions, schedule an inspection and learn how simple maintenance steps can help protect your home.Jul 27, 2026Call now
