Roof Inspection in Woodbridge, Start to Finish
A roof inspection in Woodbridge gives you a clear picture of the roof before you spend anything on it. We look at the surface, the flashing, the penetrations and, where we can reach it, the attic, and you get the photos and a written summary of what we found. Our Old Bridge office is about 20 minutes away.
Woodbridge Township is one of the oldest towns in New Jersey, in eastern Middlesex County, and includes Iselin, Colonia, Avenel, Fords, Sewaren and Port Reading.
What Woodbridge Roofs Are Up Against
Mostly single-family homes from the early and middle 1900s, many capes and colonials, set close together in each section.
Older homes often hide more than one layer of shingles, and capes with dormers have more to flash.
Based on the homes we see in Woodbridge, these are the things worth asking about on an estimate:
- Split-level tie-ins. Where a lower roof meets an upper wall, ask for step flashing and ice and water shield at the joint.
- Plank decking. Many post-war roofs sit on board decking. Ask how gaps or soft boards will be handled and priced.
- Low-slope rear additions. Back porches and kitchen additions often have too little pitch for shingles. They need a membrane, not another layer of asphalt.
What You Get in the Report
You get photos of the roof surface, flashing, penetrations and gutters, plus the attic where we can reach it, and a written summary: what is fine, what needs attention now, and what to plan for. Use it to budget: a roof with ten good years left and a roof that needs replacing next spring call for different plans.
