FAQ

Roof replacement questions

How long does a roof replacement take?

Most single-family homes take one to two days. Bigger or steeper roofs, or ones with a lot of rotten decking, can take longer.

Do you tear off the old roof or go over it?

We tear off. Layering hides rotten decking and shortens the life of the new shingles.

What happens if you find rotten wood?

We stop, photograph it and show you. Replacement is billed at the per-sheet price written in your contract, so there's no surprise number.

Do I need a permit for a new roof in New Jersey?

In most towns, yes: a full re-roof needs a construction permit and an inspection. We file it and book the inspection.

Can you replace the roof in winter?

Yes, on dry days above the shingle maker's temperature limit. Shingles seal fully once warmer weather arrives.

Will you fix the chimney too?

Yes. Re-roofing is the best time: the flashing is off anyway. We can repoint, rebuild the crown or rebuild the chimney from the roofline.
