"I personally recommend Monarch Roofing. Mathew was amazing to work with, he's experienced knowledgeable and worked well. I'm the judge of that and they did an excellent job!!! The roofers worked very hard, took our old roof off the first day and started the new roof. Second day they finished our roof and cleaned all the roofing materials from our property, they also did an excellent job cleaning up. The men were very hard working and very polite. I'm grateful, and blessed we used Monarch Roofing, I highly recommend them!"

"Fantastic experience Jersey Roofing. They recently replaced my roof and it was a great experience working with them. The crew arrived at 7:30am and finished my roof one day. Their work was meticulous and detailed. I will definitely be contacting them any time I needed a roofing service. Highly recommended!"

"We have hired Gary for roof work and skylights several times. He knows a lot about roofing, and is up front and fair with his quotes and work. The work is always what you expect. Excellent and neat. If you need to get in touch with any questions, he’s responsive and gets back to you. I recommend High Tech Roofing highly. We’ve referred them to neighbors and friends a number of times. —Patrick"

Roofing questions, answered by experts

The material and frequency of maintenance are the biggest factors for determining the longevity of your shingles, not the color. For instance, luxury asphalt shingles can last 30 years or even longer, while slate tiles have an impressive lifespan ranging from 75 to 100 years. That said, lighter-colored shingles can help reduce your energy costs in the summertime.

Yes, but it won't be as effective as installing it as part of a new roof because it won't be as water-resistant. However, a drip edge installed after the fact is better than no drip edge at all.

Gaps between tiles are necessary to help with weatherproofing, allow for thermal expansion, and increase wind resistance. In general, a small gap no larger than 3 millimeters wide will encourage proper drainage and limit cracking. Beyond that, tiles should overlap a minimum of 3 inches, except at the eaves where they should extend to the center of the gutter.

A roof replacement will usually include removal of your old roof, shingle replacement, and a new roof underlayment, but it may only include adding new shingles if you’re layering new shingles over the old shingles. If you have signs of roof leaks or your roofer finds water damage to the roof decking underneath your old roof, it can also include replacement of the OSB or plywood decking that lays over your rafters and supports the roofing material above.

Once framing is complete, you will need the following materials to roof a house:

  • Wood sheathing

  • Drip edge, a.k.a metal flashing

  • Underlayment for waterproofing

  • Roof covering, like metal or asphalt shingles
