Roof Replacement in Jersey City, NJ

Jersey City Roofers Pros is a licensed & insured Jersey City roofing contractor. We replace worn roofs down to the roof deck, then rebuild underlayment, flashing, and ridge vents for nor'easter rain and salt air. Call 2017789628 for a free roof estimate.

Material choice drives most of the cost. Three-tab shingle is the least expensive asphalt shingle we install. Architectural shingle from GAF Timberline, Owens Corning Duration, or CertainTeed Landmark costs more and holds up longer.

Slate, clay tile, and concrete tile suit older brownstones, but each adds weight the framing must carry. We check pitch and rafter condition first, then price wood shake or cedar shake where the home suits it.

Flat rooftops take TPO, EPDM, modified bitumen, built-up roof, or PVC membrane, set with a torch where the spec calls for it. Cost tracks square footage, pitch, tear-off layers, and sheathing condition.

Commercial roofing is different work. Metal panel, standing-seam panel, and corrugated panel fasten to purlins, battens, or a counterbatten system, and we rebuild parapet walls, scupper drains, and coping. We fasten metal with screws and seal seams with adhesive.

Ice dams form at the eave after heavy snow, so we add snow guards and check ventilation. A vapor barrier, soffit vents, and an attic fan keep the deck dry. Waterproofing and weatherproofing the assembly is the whole point.

What's Included

  • A full roof inspection and a written roof estimate before any material is ordered.
  • Tear-off of the old shingle, roofing felt, and tar paper down to the decking.
  • Sheathing repair, where rotted plywood or OSB comes out and damaged rafters or joists get sistered.
  • Synthetic underlayment across the substrate, plus ice-and-water shield along every eave and valley.
  • New drip edge, apron flashing, step flashing, chimney flashing, counter-flashing, and pipe flashing, plus a fresh boot flashing and pipe boot.
  • Architectural shingle in staggered courses with ring-shank nails, capped with a ridge cap and ridge vents.
  • Debris haul-off in a dumpster, gutter, fascia, and downspout reset, and manufacturer warranty registration.
  • Signs You Need Roof Replacement

  • Granule loss shows up as grit at the bottom of your downspout, which means the asphalt shingle is thinning.
  • Shingle tabs curl, buckle, or flake along the rake and verge, and they lift in a nor'easter.
  • The roofline sags or dips, which usually means rotted sheathing or a weakened rafter underneath.
  • Water stains on attic insulation, daylight around a dormer, or a leaking skylight point to failed flashing.
  • Rusted pipe flashing, cracked sealant, and repeated patches mean the roof has reached end-of-life wear.
  • Heating bills climb because wet insulation and blocked ventilation stop the attic from drying out.
  • Our Roof Replacement Process

  • We start with a roof inspection from the ground, the ladder, and the attic, then write you a line-item roof estimate.
  • On tear-off day we set scaffold and safety harness anchors, stage a roofing square and air compressor, then strip shingle, felt, and tar paper straight into a dumpster.
  • We check the decking with a pry bar and roofing shovel, replace rotted sheathing, and confirm rafters, joists, trusses, and the ridge beam meet local building code.
  • Ice-and-water shield goes down at the eave and valley, then synthetic underlayment covers the rest of the substrate.
  • We set drip edge, step flashing, chimney flashing, and pipe boots in mastic, caulk, or roof cement, never a bare smear of tar.
  • We nail shingle in staggered courses with ring-shank nails, cap the ridge, and register the manufacturer warranty.
