“Westchester asks more of a roofer than most places. You have homes that have been standing a hundred years, slate and cedar roofs that plenty of contractors won’t touch, and forty-some building departments each doing things their own way. We’ve spent nearly four decades learning that kind of work, and opening in Tarrytown puts our crews where they can do it best.”

TARRYTOWN, N.Y. – August 11, 2026 – County Roofing, a roofing contractor operating in the New York region since 1987, has opened an office in Tarrytown. The location is at 520 White Plains Road, Suite 500, and operates a dedicated phone line at (917) 217-7663.

The office serves Westchester County, including the Rivertowns communities of Sleepy Hollow, Irvington, Dobbs Ferry, and Hastings-on-Hudson, along with White Plains, Scarsdale, Bronxville, Rye, New Rochelle, and the northern communities of Armonk, Chappaqua, and Mount Kisco. It marks the company’s first location outside Long Island and New York City.

Westchester presents roofing conditions that differ from the markets where the company has operated for decades. The county’s housing stock is older and more architecturally varied, with Tudors, Victorians, and stone Colonials that have stood for a century or more. Those homes carry steep pitches, dormers, turrets, and intricate valleys, and every one of those features is a transition that has to be flashed correctly.

Material is the other difference. Slate and cedar roofs remain common across the county’s older properties, and many roofing contractors decline to work on either, leaving homeowners with a valuable roof and few options for maintaining it. County Roofing works in slate, cedar, and asphalt.

Permitting adds a further layer. Westchester County contains more than forty separate municipalities, each operating its own building department with its own requirements and timelines, and a number of villages maintain architectural review boards or historic district oversight that can apply to roof work.

“Westchester asks more of a roofer than most places,” said Keith Schmied, founder and CEO of County Roofing. “You have homes that have been standing a hundred years, slate and cedar roofs that plenty of contractors won’t touch, and forty-some building departments each doing things their own way. We’ve spent nearly four decades learning that kind of work, and opening in Tarrytown puts our crews where they can do it best.”

The county’s winters also differ from the coastal markets to the south. Westchester receives meaningfully more snowfall, particularly in its northern and higher-elevation areas, which produces more freeze-thaw cycling and a longer ice dam season.

County Roofing holds elite certification from all three major roofing manufacturers: GAF Master Elite, Owens Corning Platinum Preferred, and CertainTeed ShingleMaster PREMIER, a combination reached by a small percentage of contractors nationwide. The certifications allow the company to offer enhanced manufacturer warranty coverage that is not available through non-certified installers.

The Tarrytown office joins the company’s existing locations, including its Melville headquarters and offices in Smithtown, Massapequa, and Queens. County Roofing is led by Schmied, who founded the company in 1987 and remains directly involved in its projects.
