“I recently had my roof redone, and this company did an absolutely fantastic job. During the tear-off, they discovered that the foundation of my roof was damaged and needed to be fully replaced, not just the shingles. The contractor immediately brought it to my attention, ordered the necessary materials on the spot, and incredibly, still managed to finish the entire job—new decking and shingles—in just one day.…”

About These Guides
What is the average cost to replace a roof in New Jersey?
The cost guides in this library cover what New Jersey roofs actually cost, and each is dated and reflects North Jersey pricing at the time of writing. For a number on your own roof, call (862) 318-3997.
How to tell if a roofer is lying?
Compare the estimate against what a proper tear-off, decking allowance and flashing detail should include; the guides explain each one. Check that the roofer is registered with the New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs as a home improvement contractor, as we are under NJ HIC #13VH11720500.
