Note 01Is $30,000 too much for a roof?

For shingles on a single pitched roof, it is at the top of the estimated $9,000 to $30,000 range, so ask what is driving it. It can be reasonable for a large roof, slate or clay tile in Eastside Park, or a job that includes a flat rear section, a rebuilt tie-in and a lot of decking. The total alone does not settle it; the itemized lines do.

Note 02What to look for when choosing a roofing contractor?

A New Jersey home improvement contractor registration number on the quote, a written scope that names the materials, and a roofer who looks before pricing. In Paterson add one more: they should look at every roof on the building, flat and pitched, and name the joint between them on the quote.

Note 03What is the best way to repair a leaking flat roof?

Find the detail that failed and rebuild it in the same membrane system. A flat roof rarely fails in the middle: it fails at a seam, at a drain, where it turns up a parapet, or, very often in Paterson, at the tie-in where it meets the pitched main roof. Sealant over the top may hold a season; a membrane turned up under the shingles and fixed properly is the repair.

Note 04How much should a new roof cost in NJ?

A New Jersey homeowner reported $9,000 for a nine-square roof as the lowest of eight bids, and published national figures run from about $5,800 to over $47,000. For most pitched roofs in Paterson that makes an estimated $9,000 to $30,000, before a flat rear section is added as its own line. Roof area, layers, decking and material decide where yours lands.
