All Access Builders LLC is a family-owned roofing contractor that has served Buffalo and Erie County since 2003. We handle roof repair, complete roof replacement, and new roof installation for homeowners throughout Cheektowaga. Our in-house crews know what Western New York weather does to a roof, from lake-effect snow to ice buildup at the eaves. Every job starts with a written estimate and a clear scope of work. If your Cheektowaga roof is leaking, aging, or due for a full replacement, we can assess it and give you a straightforward plan.
Our roofing work covers everything a Cheektowaga home needs, from a single repair to a full tear-off. Here is what we handle most often.
A full roof replacement makes sense when shingles are deteriorating across the roof or leaks keep coming back. We remove the old system down to the deck, inspect what is underneath, and install new architectural asphalt shingles, flashing, and underlayment. Proper ventilation and complete debris removal finish the job, with written warranties included. Learn more about our roof replacement process in Buffalo, which follows the same standards we bring to Cheektowaga.
Missing shingles, a cracked pipe boot, or damaged chimney flashing often cause a leak without requiring a full replacement. We trace water intrusion to its actual source rather than guessing. That inspection tells us whether a targeted repair will extend your roof’s life or whether replacement makes more sense.
Garages, additions, and qualifying light-commercial structures often need a membrane system instead of shingles. We install EPDM and TPO membranes matched to the roof's drainage pattern and penetrations, so water moves off the structure instead of pooling.
New construction, home additions, and other qualifying structures need a roofing system built correctly from the deck up. We install starter shingles, drip edge, and ridge ventilation according to manufacturer specifications, so the new roof performs the way it should from day one.
Standing-seam and ribbed metal roofing offer strong wind performance and a distinct, modern look. We design the system around panel fastening and snow-shedding behavior, which matters during Cheektowaga’s heavy winter accumulation.
Wind damage and active leaks need prompt attention. Call us, and we will assess the hazard, arrange protection where conditions allow, and schedule the permanent repair. Response timing depends on weather, safety conditions, and crew availability.
Not sure whether you need a repair or replacement?
Heat escaping into the attic warms the roof deck unevenly. Snow melts, runs toward the colder eaves, and refreezes into an ice dam. Air sealing, attic insulation, balanced soffit and ridge ventilation, and properly installed ice-and-water protection all reduce this risk. No single product eliminates ice dams on its own, which is why we treat the attic and the roof as one connected system.
Lake-effect snow adds real weight to a roof structure, and repeated freeze-thaw cycles loosen shingle adhesion over time. Storm-driven moisture and fluctuating temperatures can lift shingles and stress vulnerable roof penetrations. We check these transition points during every inspection and adjust our repair approach based on the roof’s actual condition, not a generic checklist.
Most roof failures start beneath the surface. Drip edges, valley flashing, and synthetic underlayment keep water from working its way into the decking. Combined with properly functioning gutters, these components move water away from the structure instead of trapping it, which protects the roof decking underneath and extends the life of everything above it.

Buffalo native Matt Kulhanek founded All Access Builders LLC in 2003. Over 22 years of hands-on construction experience in Western New York shapes how our crews approach every roof we work on, including the homes we serve throughout Erie County.
We carry general liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage, and we are licensed to perform roofing and general contracting work. We also coordinate local permit requirements with the relevant municipality, so Cheektowaga homeowners are not left to navigate that process alone.
Our roofing crews work for us, not a subcontractor. That means one project manager oversees your job from the first estimate through the final walkthrough, which keeps scheduling, communication, and workmanship consistent.
Every proposal spells out the scope of work in writing before we start. Manufacturer material warranties and our workmanship warranty are documented separately, and we review the specific terms with you so you know exactly what each one covers.
Architectural shingles balance upfront price against long-term performance, and they suit most residential roof slopes in Cheektowaga. We install products from GAF, CertainTeed, and IKO, and we walk through design options and properly rated wind resistance before you choose.
Metal roofing generally costs more upfront than asphalt but offers a different fastening system and stronger snow-management design. We compare both options against your roof’s slope and your budget before making a recommendation.
Flat and low-slope sections, like additions and garages, need a membrane system rather than shingles. EPDM and TPO handle drainage and seam integrity differently, so we match the membrane to your roof’s specific penetrations and slope.
A reliable roof depends on more than the surface layer. Synthetic underlayment, ice-and-water membrane, starter courses, ridge caps, ventilation, drip edges, flashing, and solid decking all need to work together as one system.
| Material | Best Suited For | Key Tradeoff |
|---|---|---|
| Architectural Asphalt Shingles | Most residential steep-slope roofs | Lower upfront cost, standard performance |
| Standing-Seam Metal | Homes prioritizing wind and snow performance | Higher upfront investment |
| EPDM / TPO Membrane | Flat or low-slope additions and garages | Requires careful drainage and seam work |
Roof square footage, pitch, material selection, and the number of stories all affect your estimate. Tear-off requirements, flashing complexity, disposal, roof access, and any hidden decking damage can add to the scope once we open up the roof.
Our estimate includes inspection findings, a defined work scope, material specifications, labor, underlayment, and flashing details. We also cover debris removal, applicable permit considerations, warranty terms, and a proposed schedule, all in writing.
The right answer depends on your roof’s age, remaining service life, and repair history. Extensive water intrusion or repeated patch jobs usually point toward replacement, while an isolated issue on a younger roof often favors repair.

Our Erie County roofing projects have covered everything from full tear-offs on deteriorated roofs to metal roofing installations built around a property’s specific wind exposure. Each project starts with the same inspection process and ends with the same written warranty review, whether the home sits in Buffalo or in a neighboring Erie County community.
Roof Replacement
The problem - Worn shingles, recurring leaks, aging flashing
Our scope - Tear-off to the deck, decking repair, new underlayment, flashing and shingles
This multi-gable home had shingles failing across every slope. We stripped the roof to the deck, replaced damaged sheathing, and wrapped the structure in synthetic underlayment with ice-and-water protection at the eaves and valleys. New flashing at the chimney and dormers came next, followed by architectural shingles and a full nail sweep of the yard.
Metal Roofing
The problem - Open exposure, heavy snow load, shingle blow-offs
Our scope - Metal panel system, sealed ridge and hip caps, fastening plan for wind
This home sat in an open spot where wind kept lifting shingles off the ridge. We designed a metal roofing system around that exposure, planning panel fastening for uplift and sealing every ridge and hip cap tight. The finished roof sheds snow quickly and stands up to the gusts that kept tearing the old one apart.
