Serving Onondaga County
Need a roofer in Manlius? River Roofing and Construction has protected homes across Onondaga County for 38 years. From our Fayetteville shop we’re about 5 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 Manlius homeowners, and we build for the winters this region actually gets.
Old roof off, deck inspected, then a CertainTeed shingle system built 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.
Straightforward inspections with everything written down — for sales, claims or routine maintenance.
Wind and hail damage, tarping and fast-turnaround repairs. Seven days a week with wide hours.
Roof snow-load reduction and ice dam clearing through the heaviest weeks of a Manlius winter.
New gutters fitted alongside the roof, keeping runoff away from the fascia and the foundation.
Manlius sees roughly 115 to 125 inches of snow in a typical winter — and eastern-suburb exposure with hard freeze-thaw on older roof details. It isn’t only the weather. Manlius is characterized by historic village homes with complex rooflines alongside newer suburban development. Put those together and it’s clear why a roof here has to go on as a complete system rather than a fresh 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.
Snow piles up for months and puts real weight on the roof. Joist support and fastening have to be sized for that load.
The thaw-and-refreeze cycle repeats all winter, opening small cracks and worn flashing until a small problem turns into a real leak.

You’ll see “Limited Lifetime Warranty” on almost every shingle. The detail matters.
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.
Every roof we install carries a 50 year Non-Prorated Warranty.
Our crews work across Manlius, including Manlius village, Eagle Village, Fayetteville-Manlius corridor, and the neighborhoods between them. You’ll often find our trucks near the historic village center and Swan Pond. We cover the 13104 area and the towns around it.

Roofing is the core of what we do, though far from all of it. One team can take on the whole house. For Manlius homeowners we also handle:
When one company does the roof, the siding and the gutters, water gets managed end to end — not handed between contractors.
Our service area covers Onondaga County and the wider Central New York region.
Yes, regularly. Our shop is roughly 5 minutes from Manlius, and we cover Onondaga County as a whole.
Cost comes down to the specifics of your roof rather than a rate per square. We’ll look at it, walk you through the options, and put real numbers in writing at no charge.
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 115 to 125 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.
Yes. We’re available seven days a week with wide hours, and at roughly 5 minutes away we can get a tarp on quickly after a storm.
Our standard is a CertainTeed asphalt shingle system fitted as one assembly, because the shingle alone isn’t what makes a roof last here.
Both. If your roof has life left in it, we’ll tell you that rather than sell you a new one.
