We install impact-resistant architectural shingles rated for 130 mph winds — crucial for Long Island Sound nor'easters. Our 5-step process includes ice/water shield installation at eaves, synthetic underlayment, and attic ventilation optimization to prevent ice dams, using GAF Timberline HDZ shingles with StainGuard+ algae resistance specifically formulated for NYC's humid climate.

A shingle that looks great in a showroom photo isn't necessarily built for a Queens rooftop facing Long Island Sound nor'easter winds, or a Staten Island attic that traps humidity all summer. Nexus Construction Group Inc installs GAF Timberline HDZ shingles specifically because their 130 mph wind rating and StainGuard+ algae resistance were engineered for exactly this kind of coastal, humid climate — not generic "good enough anywhere" roofing.
Homeowners assume ice dams are a roofing material issue, but they're almost always caused by inconsistent attic temperature: warm air escaping into the attic melts snow on the upper roof, which then refreezes into ice at the colder eaves, forcing water back up under the shingles. Our 5-step process treats the entire roof assembly as a system rather than just installing shingles over the existing deck.
This is also why we specify GAF Timberline HDZ with StainGuard+ resistance — a shingle that performs well in dry climates often streaks with algae within a few humid NYC summers, undermining the roof's appearance and, eventually, its granule protection.
A waterproof membrane at eaves and valleys that stops backed-up meltwater at the source.
A tear-resistant secondary barrier that outperforms traditional felt underlayment.
Balanced intake and exhaust airflow that keeps the roof deck at a consistent temperature.
Purpose-built for NYC's humid summers, keeping the roof free of algae streaking for years.
A complete roof assembly approach, not just a shingle swap.
Deck condition, attic ventilation, and existing damage assessed before scoping the project.
Old shingles removed and any damaged decking replaced before new materials go down.

Having a licensed contractor is essential because it ensures that your project meets the city’s compliance requirements. An insured contractor protects you from liabilities, workplace accidents, or unforeseen damages during construction. Many property owners underestimate this step, but hiring an unlicensed contractor often leads to costly fines and rework.
Our licensing and insurance demonstrate our commitment to professionalism and client safety. You can trust that every project will be carried out under full legal compliance, giving you peace of mind and protecting your investment.
