Brooklyn brownstones and detached single-family homes face intense Northeast weather cycles. Wind-driven rain, coastal storms, and freeze-thaw patterns age asphalt shingles faster than many owners expect. When leaks begin, a rapid, accurate plan is essential. CountBricks delivers that plan within minutes, combining voice-activated AI with live material pricing and vetted local crews. The result is crystal-clear cost visibility and a smoother construction timeline for every residential client.
Type the phrase into any search engine and you see wide price ranges, conflicting material advice, and vague timelines. CountBricks cuts through the noise. Our cloud platform pulls up-to-the-minute shingle, underlayment, and flashing costs from regional suppliers. Then our AI engine converts your spoken scope—“1,800 sq ft tear-off, new architectural shingles, ice-and-water 6 ft in from eaves”—into a line-item estimate in seconds. No hidden fees, no guesswork.
• Building age: Pre-war masonry requires delicate cornice work and specialized fastening
• Accessibility: Narrow streets and limited staging areas can add labor hours
• Layer count: NYC code allows only two existing shingle layers before full tear-off
• Permit requirements: Department of Buildings filings, sidewalk sheds, and neighbor notifications
• Material upgrades: Class-4 impact shingles or solar-ready underlayment increase both value and price

A homeowner discovered ceiling stains after Hurricane Ida. Within two hours she used CountBricks.com/services to initiate a voice consultation. Our AI produced a $24,750 estimate covering tear-off, synthetic underlayment, Class-3 shingles, and parapet flashing. The project began five days later and closed out in 72 working hours. Final invoice matched the original estimate within 1.2 %, demonstrating the accuracy of live pricing and tight schedule management.
