Called DirecTV and they said they could put the dish on a pole up to 20 feet high? It would be $50 for them to come to house and $75 to move the dish.
If they due that would it be better on pole or house, like after roof is done should I put it back up

ex-technician and supervisor ...
directv will NOT take down the dish.
have someone or yourself take down the dish, then call directv to schedule a dish relocate for the date that the roofers will be ready to have the dish re-installed. in that case you may be out of service for a day.
directv will certainly not take down the dish and wait for the roofers to get done. usually the technician is fully booked for the day and will be late for other appointments. They are also paid per job, so if they have to sit in the truck for 2 hours waiting, their hourly wage is terribly low.
you could also call to relocate to the garage, but will charge you to have it moved. you could also be possibly charged per foot of cable for extending the wiring if required.
last, but not least, you could schedule 2 relocates ... one to get off of the roof and another to put it back.

Somebody take it down, preferably the roofers or yourself, it doesn't take much, have D* come out and place the dish on a pole in the yard, much better than being on the roof anyways.
Do you get any SNOW in NY where your at ?
How do you like being without sat signal till the snow melts ?
Wet snows are the worst.
NOW is the time to see if it can be moved to the ground somewhere on your property.
Much easier going out and wiping the dish off while on the ground.

Jimbo's right, if you get much snow, move it to a pole you can reach, if not Comdeck is the only way to go for a roof mount.
