We had the roof on our home in Chappaqua completely replaced, and I couldn't be happier with the experience and the final result. Ervin was amazing from beginning to end — extremely professional, reliable, knowledgeable, and easy to communicate with throughout the entire project. His crew did an incredible job. They worked efficiently, paid attention to every detail, and were extremely clean and respectful of our property. With such a large roofing project, I was expecting a big mess, but they kept everything organized and made sure the property was cleaned up beautifully. The difference in the before and after is incredible. The new roof looks beautiful, and the quality of the workmanship really shows. I would absolutely recommend Ervin and his team to anyone looking for a trustworthy and professional roofing company. Excellent work, excellent service, and a great experience from start to finish. 10/10!
Service Area
Where We Do Masonry Work
VT1 Roofing & Chimney provides masonry services across four counties in New York and Connecticut, all within driving distance of our Putnam Valley base.
Putnam County, NY
Putnam County, New York, sits between the Hudson River and the Connecticut border, roughly 50 miles north of Manhattan. Its housing stock ranges from 19th-century river villages in Philipstown to lakeside cottages converted into year-round homes. VT1 Roofing & Chimney is headquartered in Putnam Valley and serves every town in the county.
Westchester County, NY
Westchester County, New York, borders Putnam County to the south and spans historic estate properties, postwar suburban development, and Hudson River villages. Northern Westchester in particular carries older housing stock with slate roofing, steep multi-plane rooflines, and masonry chimneys that require specialized repair. VT1 Roofing & Chimney serves the county's northern towns from its Putnam Valley base.
Dutchess County, NY
Dutchess County, New York, lies directly north of Putnam County along the Hudson River and the I-84 corridor. Southern Dutchess combines colonial-era village centers in Fishkill and Beacon with extensive postwar subdivision growth, so roof ages vary widely across the area. VT1 Roofing & Chimney serves southern Dutchess from its Putnam Valley headquarters.
Fairfield County, CT
Fairfield County, Connecticut, borders New York State east of Putnam County, clustered for VT1 around the I-84 corridor and Candlewood Lake.

FAQ
Common Questions
Straight answers to what homeowners ask before booking a roofing or chimney project.
Do you build retaining walls?
Yes. We design and build retaining walls in block and stone, including drainage work to help prevent the wall from failing over time.
Can you repair an existing patio or walkway instead of replacing it?
Often, yes. Settled or cracked pavers and stone can frequently be reset and repaired. We recommend full replacement when the base has failed or shifted extensively. We'll tell you which applies during the estimate.
Do you match existing brick or stone on a repair?
We do our best to match existing material on repair and repointing work. Exact matches aren't always available, especially on older homes, and we discuss options with you before starting.
Do you offer a warranty on masonry work?
Yes. Workmanship is covered by our own labor warranty. We review the exact terms during your estimate.
