Residential Roofing Material Services in White Plains

Material selection in White Plains is shaped by which neighborhood the home is in. Gedney Farms' 1920s-1930s stone Tudors and colonials may have original or period-replacement slate; when slate isn't being continued, architectural and designer shingles suit the architectural character better than standard three-tab. Fisher Hill's Victorians have similar material histories and the same architectural considerations. In The Highlands and other pre-war residential areas, architectural shingles are the standard appropriate choice. In the city's postwar residential neighborhoods, standard asphalt or architectural shingles are practical and appropriate.
Meridian Contracting has worked with the full range of residential roofing materials throughout White Plains for more than 25 years.

Why White Plains Homeowners Choose Meridian

Material selection in White Plains can't be the same recommendation for every property — a Gedney Farms stone Tudor, a Fisher Hill Victorian, and a Rosedale postwar colonial have genuinely different architectural characters and material histories that should produce different recommendations.

Our Roofing Material Options in White Plains

Explore the materials we install and repair.
Slate Roofing

Found on Gedney Farms' oldest estate homes and some Fisher Hill Victorians; selectively repaired and replaced in-kind when the structure and remaining slates are sound.

Metal Roofing

A strong long-term choice for White Plains properties where shaded lots and canopy coverage promote faster organic growth on standard asphalt.

Standard Asphalt Shingles

Practical for the city's postwar residential stock in Rosedale, Haviland Manor, and Battle Hill; algae-resistant formulations recommended on shaded lots.

Architectural & Designer Shingles

More appropriate on White Plains' estate and Victorian architecture than standard three-tab; better wind ratings and longer lifespan — the standard recommendation on most White Plains homes.
