About Roofers in New Jersey

Roofers in New Jersey started in 2003 with one truck and a simple rule: explain every option like you'd explain it to a neighbor. We're a Newark roofing contractor that serves all five wards—Central, North, East, South, and West—plus the surrounding towns. We've worked on everything from 100-year-old slate in the East Ward to new asphalt shingle roofs near Branch Brook Park.

Newark's climate is tough on roofs. Heavy spring and fall precipitation seeps into any weak spot. Northeast nor'easters bring wind that peels shingles and ice that wicks under the edges. Summer humidity makes the decking rot from the inside out. We've seen it all: granule loss on 20-year-old shingles, sagging decks from years of leaks, and end-of-life wear that shows up as curling, cracking, and buckling.

How We Work: Tear-Off, Recover, or Overlay

When we inspect your roof, we'll tell you if you need a full tear-off or if a recover or overlay will do. A tear-off means removing the old shingles down to the deck. We use ring-shank nails for a grip that holds in high winds. We install a self-adhered ice-and-water shield at the eaves and valleys, then lay a starter course, field courses, and staggered courses so water never finds a straight seam.

If your roof has just one layer and the deck is solid, we might recommend an overlay. It's faster and cheaper, but it doesn't fix underlying rot. We'll only suggest it if it's safe. We never push a job you don't need. Our goal is durability, not a bigger invoice.

We also handle commercial roofing. Flat roofs on Newark's warehouses and offices need different care—proper drainage, seam sealing, and membranes that resist ponding water. We'll service, refit, or reseal your commercial roof to keep your building dry and your tenants happy.

Credentials and Safety

We're licensed and insured in New Jersey. Every crew member is trained on fall protection and ladder safety. We use a full tear-off disposal process—no dumping debris in your yard. We're a GAF Master Elite certified team, which means we meet the manufacturer's highest standards for installation and can offer extended warranties on certain shingles.

We don't just fix roofs; we maintain them. A yearly inspection catches small issues before they become leaks. We check for overdriven nails, exposed fasteners, and hand-sealed laps that might have lifted. We'll tell you if a repair is enough or if it's time for a roof replacement.

Meet the Team

We're a crew of 12 full-time roofers, all Newark locals. Our lead foreman has been with us since 2005. Our project managers have seen every roof condition in the city. We're not a fly-by-night outfit; we're the people you see at the diner on Broad Street.

We answer the phone ourselves. When you call, you get a real person who knows roofs, not a call center. We show up on time, and we clean up before we leave. That's the standard we've held since 2003.

Community Roots

We've donated roofs for two homes in the South Ward through a local nonprofit. We sponsor a youth baseball team in the West Ward. We're proud to be part of Newark's comeback, one roof at a time.

When you hire us, you get a Newark roofing contractor that treats your home like our own. Call 877-854-0330 for a free estimate. We'll take a look, tell you what's what, and give you a straight answer.
