Photos of Everything
Every inspection comes back with pictures of the flashing, the eaves, the valleys, and anything we flag. You see what we saw, not a clipboard summary.
A Real Service Run
The shop is about fifteen miles south of Oakland up Route 208 and I-287. It is a longer drive than our local towns, so we batch Oakland calls and tell you a true window.
A Real Verdict
Some roofs need a small fix and years of life. Some are done. We tell you which one you have and back it with the photos.

- Flashing at chimneys and sidewalls that a highlands winter is hard on
- Valleys that funnel snowmelt and rain and wear a decade ahead of the field
- Pipe boots, the vent collars that split in the cold and crack in the sun
- Ice-damaged eaves, a yearly story at the Ramapo elevation
- The low-slope sections where snow sits for days and finds tired flashing
- Then the right next step: roof repair in Oakland, leak repair, replacement, or chimney work
Why the Inspection Is Free
The Person on Your Roof
Customers ask for Ben by name, and the reviews say why: he finds where a leak is coming from and shows you. An inspection with him is a real look, not a lead form with a ladder.
Licensed and Insured
Four Seasons Roofing and Construction is a licensed and insured New Jersey contractor, NJ Lic. #13VH11720500, and we carry workers' compensation coverage. Our own crew climbs the roof, not a subcontractor you never met.
A Written Report
You leave the inspection with photos and a written number, on the spot or the same evening. If the roof is fine, we say the roof is fine. There is no charge either way.

What We Check on a Oakland Roof
Oakland roofs fail in patterns tied to when and how the house was built. Open the parts of an inspection that matter most for your kind of home.
Ice-damaged eaves
Snow melts, runs down, refreezes at the cold overhang, and backs water up under the shingles. The Ramapo elevation makes this a yearly story, not a freak event. We read the eaves and the attic side for the signs before the ceiling shows them.
Flashing through a highlands winter
Older Oakland homes have plenty of roof-meets-wall joints, and most have been patched with tar. Tar fails, especially through a highlands winter. We photograph the joints so you know whether it is a seal or a proper metal rebuild.
Valleys carrying snowmelt
Cross-gabled roofs funnel snowmelt and rain straight into the valleys, and up here those wear out a solid decade ahead of the field. We read every valley on the walk.
Snow load on low-slope sections
A rear addition, a porch roof, a garage with a deck on top. Snow sits on those for days, and the seam where the pitched roof meets the flat one becomes a leak factory. We read both systems.
Whether the roof is ready for winter
The fix at this elevation is to catch the edges and joints before winter, not after the ceiling stains. A fall inspection tells you what needs sealing before the snow tests it.
All About Oakland, NJ
Oakland sits up against the Ramapo Mountains, so an inspection here has more to do with weather and elevation than most homeowners expect. This is higher ground than the towns down by the coast, so it catches more snow, more freeze and thaw, and the nor'easters that roll through every winter. The borough was incorporated in 1902 and named for its white oaks, and a lot of the housing is older single-family stuff.
The highlands get roughly 163 freeze-free days a year, which leaves a lot of nights where water sits in a seam, freezes, swells, and pries the seal open a little more. Newark down at sea level averages around thirty-one inches of snow a season, and Oakland on higher ground tends to see more. Snow load and ice at the eaves are the local enemy, so the inspection starts there.
Our shop sits at 38 Speer Ave in Clifton, about fifteen miles south of Oakland up Route 208 and I-287. It is a longer drive than our local towns, so we batch the calls and give you a true window. We cover the borough and its neighbors, Franklin Lakes, Wyckoff, Wayne, and Pompton Lakes.

Roof Inspection Questions Oakland Homeowners Ask
Is a roof inspection in Oakland really free?
Yes. The inspection, the photos, and the written number cost nothing, and there is no obligation to hire us.
You are based in Clifton. Is Oakland too far for you?
Not at all. It is about fifteen miles up Route 208 and I-287, a regular run. We schedule it honestly so you are not waiting on a truck stuck on the highway.
I keep getting ice dams every winter. Can the inspection help?
Yes, and that is one of the most common calls we get from the Ramapo elevation. We trace where the meltwater is backing up and read the flashing and the eave so you know what stops it recurring.
Can you inspect an Oakland home before I buy it?
Yes. You get the remaining years and the likely cost of the next roof in writing, so it sits alongside your other reports.
When is the best time to inspect up here?
Fall. At this elevation the fix is to catch the edges and joints before winter, so the small stuff found in October is the cheapest to handle.

Who Signs Off on the Work in Oakland
When a job here needs a permit, it goes through the Oakland building department, and their inspector is the one who signs it off. We pull that permit and schedule around the inspection, so the paperwork is our problem rather than yours. Ordinary repairs usually do not need one. Structural and replacement work generally does.
Questions about roof inspection in Oakland? Call (862) 318-3997 and ask.
The company behind the crew is registered with the New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs as a home improvement contractor, NJ HIC #13VH11720500. You can check that on the state licence verification portal before you hire us, or anyone else. We install GAF and Owens Corning roofing systems; we are not enrolled in either manufacturer's contractor certification program, and we would rather tell you that than imply a badge we do not hold.
How a Job Actually Runs
You reach out
Call (862) 318-3997 or send the form. We do not need the whole story up front, just the address and what you are seeing.
Free inspection
We come out and look at the roof. The inspection is free and there is no obligation either way.
We photograph what we find
A photo of a cracked boot or a rusted valley settles the question faster than a paragraph, so you see the roof rather than hear about it.
Written itemized estimate
The material tier and the decking allowance are broken out as their own numbers, so you can change any of them before you sign.
The work
We tear off rather than lay over on almost every house, because a layover means nobody ever looks at the deck. Bad boards get replaced as we find them and photographed one at a time.
After the job
Decking is billed against the allowance written into the contract before anyone climbed a ladder, and the work carries a 2-year workmanship warranty with a 50-year manufacturer warranty on the material.
Get a free roof estimate
We inspect first and photograph what we find, then put an itemized number in front of you. No obligation either way.
- Free inspection before any quote
- Written estimate, itemized line by line
- 2-year workmanship warranty
