What to Ask For on a Somerville Roof
Based on the homes we see in Somerville, these are the things worth asking about on an estimate:
- Steep pitches. Steep Tudor and Victorian roofs need staging and more labour; ask for that to be priced openly.
- Valleys and dormers. Complex rooflines put the risk in valleys. Ask for ice and water shield in every valley, not just at the eaves.
- Chimney flashing. Large old chimneys are a leading leak source; flashing should be replaced with the roof, not reused.
- Slate and older materials. If part of the house is slate, ask for an honest call on whether it needs a slate specialist.
- Matching the look. Ask to see shingle colours and profiles that suit the house before choosing a line.
How We Work and What We Install
How a roofing job works, step by step
Every job in Somerville 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 Somerville 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.
