What to Ask For on a Edison Roof
Based on the homes we see in Edison, these are the things worth asking about on an estimate:
- Plank decking. Many post-war roofs sit on board decking. Ask how gaps or soft boards will be handled and priced.
- Whole-street timing. Homes built together tend to wear out together; neighbours' replacements are a good sign of where yours stands.
- Cape dormers. Dormers add walls and valleys to flash. Ask for new step flashing where each dormer meets the roof.
- Attic ventilation. Original attics often have little venting. Ridge and soffit vents added during a replacement help the new roof last.
- Split-level tie-ins. Where a lower roof meets an upper wall, ask for step flashing and ice and water shield at the joint.
How We Work and What We Install
How a roofing job works, step by step
Every job in Edison runs the same way, whether it is a single repair or a full replacement:
- First call
We ask what you're seeing
Where the water shows up, how old the roof is, whether it's getting worse. If water is coming in now, the call becomes an emergency visit.
- On the roof
Inspection with photos
We go up, and into the attic where we can, and photograph every problem so you see what we see.
- Before any work
A written estimate
Repair and replacement priced separately when both are reasonable, with the materials named.
- Work day
The job, then a walkthrough
Yard protected, work done, nails swept, and photos of the finished roof.
Roofing materials we install
What goes on your roof depends on its pitch, the look of the house and how long you plan to stay. These are the systems we install on Edison homes; the estimate names the exact product line.
Asphalt shingles
The most common roof on New Jersey homes: solid weather protection for the money, in a wide range of colours and styles to suit the house.
Architectural shingles
Heavier, dimensional shingles with more depth than flat 3-tab. They resist wind better and usually carry longer manufacturer warranties.
Low-slope roofing
TPO, EPDM and modified bitumen for porch roofs, rear additions and commercial flat roofs, where shingles do not have enough pitch to shed water.
