Newark’s weather is hard on roofs. Heavy spring and fall rain seeps into any weak spot, Northeast nor’easters bring wind that peels shingles and ice that forms dams, and summer humidity accelerates granule loss and rot. That’s why homeowners in the Central Ward, North Ward, East Ward, South Ward, and West Ward call Roofers in New Jersey — a local Newark roofing contractor that has served the city since 2007.
We know the building styles here. Brick rowhouses near Newark City Hall need careful flashing work. Colonial and Cape Cod homes in Forest Hill and Branch Brook Park — many built in the 1950s and ’60s — often need a full tear-off because the original asphalt shingles are at end-of-life wear. Modern ranches and split-levels from the ’80s and ’90s may only need an overlay or a re-cover, saving you money. We’ll tell you which is which.
Our crews use ring-shank nails, self-adhered underlayment at the eaves, and proper starter course and field course installation with staggered courses — the details that keep a roof tight for decades. We also handle roof repair for storm damage, leaks, and missing shingles, often responding within 24 hours.
For apartment buildings and condos near the Prudential Center or NJPAC, we plan work around tenants. We schedule tear-offs during reasonable hours, contain debris with chutes and tarps, and prioritize emergency leaks so you don’t get a call from a frustrated resident. We’ve done dozens of multi-family roofs in Newark, and we know how to keep disruption low.
We’re licensed and insured, and we stand behind our work with a workmanship warranty. Call 8778540330 for a free estimate.
