Thirty years after opening, Kamco Roofing stands as an enduring feature of Brooklyn’s construction community. Led by Mr. Flag and his son Darius, the company specializes in both residential and commercial projects, from minor repairs to complete roof replacements. They’re particularly adept at the unique challenges of Brooklyn’s historic housing stock, where water damage and structural settling can complicate roofing projects.

Founded in 1992 by Mr. Flag, this family-owned business emerged from humble beginnings. After immigrating from Albania to America in 1989, Mr. Flag started as a roofer earning just $30 a day. Needing more money to support his family, he took his craftsmanship and set up on his own. While the early years presented typical startup challenges, Mr. Flag’s commitment to quality workmanship gained him notice throughout Brooklyn.

What sets Kamco apart isn’t just their technical expertise — it’s their understanding of Brooklyn’s architectural heritage and their commitment to personal service. When you call Kamco, you’ll always speak with the same team members – Nikki and Denise in the office, or Ralph leading the crew. This consistency has created lasting relationships with homeowners across the borough.

The proof of their craftsmanship? Customers include homeowners whose Kamco-installed roofs have lasted over 23 years – a remarkable lifespan in Brooklyn’s demanding climate. As certified installers for major manufacturers like Siplast, Firestone, and GAF, Kamco continues to uphold the standards that Mr. Flag established with his first projects.

For Brooklyn homeowners looking to protect their investment, Kamco’s story represents more than just business success – it’s a promise of quality, reliability, and community connection.
