Thinking about a new roof in Chittenango? River Roofing and Construction has spent 38 years looking after roofs across Madison County. We’re 15 minutes up the road in Fayetteville, so we can get to you quickly when something goes wrong. Whether it’s a complete tear-off or a single urgent repair, we handle every part of your roof for Chittenango homeowners — and we build for the winters we actually get here.
Complete tear-offs down to the deck, built on CertainTeed shingle systems rated for Central New York 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.
Storm damage, emergency tarping and quick repairs, seven days a week with wide hours.
Snow removal and ice dam relief to protect your shingles, gutters and ceilings all winter.
Gutter replacement handled as part of your roof project, carrying water away from the roofline.
Homeowners in Chittenango deal with roughly 110 to 140 inches of snow in a typical winter. On top of that, corridor exposure with bands tracking in off Oneida Lake. It isn’t only the weather. Chittenango is characterized by canal-era village housing alongside newer subdivisions. That combination is exactly why a roof here needs to be installed as a complete system, not just a new layer of shingles.
An ice dam forms when attic heat melts snow that refreezes at the cold edge of the roof. Clearing it every winter isn't the answer; ventilation and ice-and-water shield are.
Snow piles up for months and puts real weight on the roof. Joist support and fastening have to be sized for that load.
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.

You’ll see “Limited Lifetime Warranty” on almost every shingle. The detail matters.
Typically after 10 years the “Limited Lifetime Warranty” becomes pro-rated and you are no longer fully covered. This could mean only receiving pennies on the dollar for a potential manufacturing defect.
Every roof we install carries a 50 year Non-Prorated Warranty.
We cover Chittenango and the area around it, including Chittenango village and everything in between. Chittenango Falls and the Erie Canal landing is familiar ground for us, and we work throughout the 13037 area.
Not sure if we cover your neighborhood? Give us a call at 315-630-0839 — we’re probably working in the area already.
We’re a roofing company first, but not only a roofing company — so one contractor can handle the whole exterior. For Chittenango 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 Madison County and throughout Central New York.
We do. Chittenango sits comfortably inside our service area, about 15 minutes from Fayetteville.
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.
We do. Given roughly 110 to 140 inches of snow in a typical winter, ice dams come up every winter. We clear them and reduce snow load — and on a replacement we design ventilation and ice-and-water shield in so they’re less likely to form at all.
We work seven days a week with wide hours and respond quickly to storm damage. Being about 15 minutes out means we can get a tarp on fast when it matters.
We install CertainTeed asphalt shingle systems: architectural shingles over quality underlayment, with ice-and-water shield at the eaves and valleys and balanced ventilation throughout.
We do both. Plenty of roofs need a targeted repair, not a replacement, and we’ll give you a straight answer after we look.
