Roof Inspection in Brick: What to Expect
A roof inspection in Brick 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 35 minutes away.
Brick Township is in northern Ocean County, on Barnegat Bay and the Metedeconk River.
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.
What Brick Roofs Are Up Against
Mostly single-family post-war and newer homes, with bay and lagoon homes along the water.
Homes on the water take wind and salt air, and many inland neighbourhoods reached replacement age together.
Based on the homes we see in Brick, these are the things worth asking about on an estimate:
- High-wind shingles. Ask for shingles rated for high wind, installed with the manufacturer's high-wind nailing pattern.
- Before storm season. Keep dated photos of the roof. After a coastal storm they make an insurance claim much easier.
- Attic ventilation. Original attics often have little venting. Ridge and soffit vents added during a replacement help the new roof last.
