Wondering who to call for roofing in Cicero? River Roofing and Construction has protected homes across Onondaga County for 38 years. We’re about 20 minutes away in Fayetteville — close enough to be there quickly when a storm rolls through or a leak shows up on your ceiling. Every part of your roof, from a complete replacement to an emergency repair, handled for Cicero homeowners and built for real Central New York winters.
We strip the roof to the deck and rebuild it with CertainTeed shingle systems specified for Central New York.
Leaks, lost shingles and failed flashing, repaired properly so the problem doesn't come back next season.
Straightforward inspections with everything written down — for sales, claims or routine maintenance.
When wind or hail opens up a roof, we tarp it and get the repair moving. We work seven days a week.
Snow-load reduction and ice dam relief through the worst of a Cicero winter.
Gutters replaced during the same project — one crew, one schedule, water going where it should.
Cicero sees roughly 115 to 125 inches of snow in a typical winter. Add open exposure coming straight off Oneida Lake, and a roof here takes a beating. It isn’t only the weather. Cicero is characterized by a mix of lakeside properties and suburban subdivisions across several build eras. That’s the reason a roof here needs to go on as a complete assembly, not just a new surface layer.
Warm air leaking into the attic melts snow higher up the roof. It refreezes at the cold eaves and pushes water back beneath the shingles. Ventilation is the real fix.
Snow piles up for months and puts real weight on the roof. Joist support and fastening have to be sized for that load.
Water gets into a hairline crack, freezes, expands, and makes the crack bigger. Repeat that for a season and you have a leak.

Years Of Experience Serving Central NY
Nearly every shingle carries a “Limited Lifetime Warranty”. It’s worth knowing what that really means.
After about a decade, that warranty usually becomes pro-rated — so a defect years down the line pays out a sliding fraction rather than the full amount.
We offer a 50 year Non-Prorated Warranty on every roof project.
We work throughout Cicero and the surrounding area, including Bridgeport Road corridor, Route 11 corridor — as well as the streets in between. the south shore of Oneida Lake is familiar ground for us, and we work throughout the 13039 area.

Roofing is what we’re known for, but it isn’t everything we do. That means a single contractor for the whole house. For Cicero homeowners we also handle:
Handling each layer ourselves means the roof, walls and gutters work as one system rather than three separate jobs.
We provide roofing services throughout Onondaga County and Central New York.
We do. Cicero sits comfortably inside our service area, about 20 minutes from Fayetteville.
There’s no single number. Size, pitch, the number of layers to remove, the state of the decking and the shingle you pick all move the price. We’ll give you a free estimate in writing instead of a guess.
One to two days covers most Cicero roofs. Size, pitch and the forecast decide where you land, and you’ll get a realistic timeline up front.
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 20 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.
Both. If your roof has life left in it, we’ll tell you that rather than sell you a new one.
