Serving Onondaga County
Need a roofer in Fabius? We’re River Roofing and Construction, and we’ve worked on Onondaga County homes for 38 years. From our Fayetteville shop we’re about 30 minutes away, near enough to respond quickly when a storm hits or a ceiling stain appears. From full roof replacements to emergency repairs, we handle every part of your roof for Fabius homeowners, and we build for the winters this region actually gets.
Full tear-offs taken right down to the deck, then rebuilt with CertainTeed shingle systems made for our weather.
We track down what's actually leaking — shingles, flashing or storm damage — and fix the cause rather than cover it.
Documented inspections for home sales, insurance claims and post-storm checks.
When wind or hail opens up a roof, we tarp it and get the repair moving. We work seven days a week.
Snow removal and ice dam relief to protect your shingles, gutters and ceilings all winter.
Gutters replaced during the same project — one crew, one schedule, water going where it should.
Homeowners in Fabius deal with roughly 140 to 160 inches of snow in a typical winter. On top of that, elevation-driven cold and long winters in the southern hills. Housing here adds to it, since Fabius is characterized by rural hill-country homes built for hard winters. That combination is exactly why a roof here needs to be installed as a complete system, not just a new layer of shingles.
Heat escaping into the attic melts snow that refreezes at the cold eaves, forcing water back under the shingles. The fix is ventilation and ice-and-water shield.
Months of accumulated snow sits on the structure and stresses the eaves. We frame and fasten for February, not for a sunny inspection in July.
Temperatures cross the freezing line over and over all season, working at small cracks and tired flashing until a minor issue becomes a real leak.

Most shingles have a “Limited Lifetime Warranty”, but what exactly does that mean?
In most cases the coverage goes pro-rated after roughly 10 years. From that point a manufacturing defect might return only a fraction of what the roof cost.
We offer a 50 year Non-Prorated Warranty on every roof project.
Our crews work across Fabius, including Fabius village, Apulia, and the neighborhoods between them. We’re regularly working near the Labrador Hollow area and surrounding hills, across the 13063 area and further out.
Wondering whether you’re in our area? Give us a call at 315-630-0839 — there’s a good chance we’re on a job near you.
We’re a roofing company first, but not only a roofing company — so one contractor can handle the whole exterior. For Fabius homeowners we also handle:
Because every layer of the exterior is in-house, water is managed as one system — with no gaps between contractors.
We work across Onondaga County and throughout Central New York.
Yes, regularly. Our shop is roughly 30 minutes from Fabius, and we cover Onondaga County as a whole.
It depends on your roof — size, pitch, how many layers come off, the condition of the decking, and the materials you choose. Rather than guess, we offer a free, no-pressure estimate with everything in writing.
Most replacements here are a one- or two-day job. We’ll give you an honest timeline with the estimate rather than a best case.
That’s a regular winter call for us. We take snow weight off the roof and free up ice dams, and we build the prevention into any replacement we install.
We work seven days a week with wide hours and respond quickly to storm damage. Being about 30 minutes out means we can get a tarp on fast when it matters.
CertainTeed asphalt shingle systems — architectural shingles with proper underlayment, ice-and-water shield and balanced ventilation, installed as a complete assembly built for Central New York.
We do both. Plenty of roofs need a targeted repair, not a replacement, and we’ll give you a straight answer after we look.
