Owens Corning Preferred Contractor Factory-trained and certified for Owens Corning roofing systems

The Roof Is Only as Good as the Crew That Installs It.

Replacements, repairs, storm damage, skylights, ventilation, and cleaning — installed to manufacturer spec, documented as we go, and backed in writing. The shingle brand matters less than who hangs it. That’s where we come in.

Complete Roofing Services

Whatever your roof needs — an emergency patch tonight or a full replacement down the road — you get one contractor who owns the whole job and one standard of work that doesn’t change with the price. No handoffs, no finger-pointing, no crew you’ve never met showing up.

Replacement
Most Requested

Roof Replacement

When a repair won’t hold anymore, we tear off to a clean deck and rebuild the whole system to manufacturer spec — not just the shingle on top. You see the deck before it’s covered, and the work is backed in writing.

  • Complete tearoff down to the deck
  • Ice & water shield, synthetic underlayment
  • Deck repair included — we don’t skip soft spots
  • Manufacturer warranty + labor warranty in writing
  • Full photo documentation throughout
  • OC Preferred Contractor — backed warranty
New Install
New Construction

New Roof Installation

Building new or adding on? We install the full roofing system to manufacturer spec — every layer done right so the warranty actually holds and you’re not redoing it in a few years.

  • New construction & addition roofing
  • Asphalt shingles, synthetic tile, metal options
  • Full system: decking, underlayment, flashing, ridge
  • Manufacturer-spec install for full warranty coverage
  • Coordinate with contractors & builders
  • Written estimate, timeline, & warranty docs
Repairs
Fast Turnaround

Roof Repairs

A small leak is the cheapest it will ever be. We find the actual source — the flashing, the boot, the valley — not just the wet spot, and fix the cause so the same leak doesn’t come back on us.

  • Leak diagnosis — find the real source
  • Shingle replacement, flashing repair
  • Valley, ridge, and pipe boot repair
  • Wind & hail damage repair
  • Photo documentation before & after
  • Honest assessment — repair vs. replace guidance
Skylights
VELUX Authorized

Skylight Installation & Repair

A skylight done right adds light and value. Done wrong, it leaks — every time. We install VELUX skylights with the proper flashing kit and a watertight detail, because the flashing is the whole job, not the glass.

  • VELUX fixed & vented skylights
  • Proper step flashing & weatherproofing
  • Skylight leak repair & re-flashing
  • New openings cut & framed properly
  • Best done during full roof replacement
  • Manufacturer warranty on installation
Cleaning
Extend Roof Life

Roof Cleaning

Algae and moss don’t just look bad — they eat into asphalt shingles and shorten the roof’s life. We soft-wash to remove the growth without blasting the granules off or voiding your warranty — the way it should be done.

  • Soft-wash — no pressure washing on shingles
  • Algae, moss & lichen treatment
  • Extends shingle lifespan
  • Pre-sale a clean, lasting look improvement
  • Inspection included with cleaning
  • Warranty-safe cleaning methods
Ventilation
Energy & Longevity

Roof Ventilation

Poor attic ventilation is one of the top causes of a roof failing early — trapped heat and moisture warp the decking and cook the shingles from below. Most crews never check it. We assess the intake-and-exhaust balance and correct it as part of the job.

  • Attic ventilation assessment
  • Ridge vent, soffit vent, power vent installation
  • Leak and moisture prevention
  • Reduces cooling costs
  • Protects warranty — most require proper ventilation
  • Best addressed during full replacement
Inspections
Annual & Pre-Sale

Roof Inspections

Most roofing problems are caught late — after the water is already inside. We inspect the whole roof properly and show you exactly what we find, photos and all — an honest written read, not a vague verdict from the driveway meant to sell you a roof.

  • Full photo documentation on every inspection
  • Annual maintenance inspections
  • Pre-sale & pre-purchase inspections
  • Post-storm damage assessment
  • Written report with repair recommendations
  • Honest — we tell you what can wait

Which Roofing Material Is Right for Your Home?

Every material has trade-offs, and the wrong roofer just sells you whatever they stock the most of. Here’s the straight breakdown so you walk into the estimate knowing what fits your home and your budget — not what pads their margin.

Architectural Shingles

Most Popular

Best for:

The best value in a full replacement — proven performance and dozens of color options. But the warranty that comes with them only holds if they’re installed to spec, and that’s where most jobs cut corners. We don’t.

  • 30–50 year lifespan
  • OC, GAF, CertainTeed options
  • Up to 50-year manufacturer warranty
  • Holds up to years of hard use

Metal Roofing

Premium Longevity

Best for:

Homeowners who want the lowest lifetime cost and a roof they won’t think about for decades. Metal is unforgiving of a sloppy install — the fastening and flashing have to be exact, and we do them exactly.

  • 50–70+ year lifespan
  • Stands up to impact and heavy loads
  • Reflects heat — lower energy bills
  • Higher upfront, lower lifetime cost

Synthetic Tile

Premium Look

Best for:

The look of slate or clay without the weight — Brava leads the category. A premium product like this is only worth it installed by a crew that treats it like one, and we install it to the letter of the spec.

  • Looks like slate — weighs far less
  • Class 4 impact resistance (hail-rated)
  • Works on most existing structures
  • Brava — 50 year warranty

Cedar Shake

Natural Beauty

Best for:

Genuine wood texture and character no synthetic can match. Cedar lives or dies on the details — proper spacing, ventilation, and sealing — so the crew you pick matters more than the material itself. That’s the part we get right.

  • Authentic wood look and feel
  • Natural insulation properties
  • 30–40 years with proper maintenance
  • Premium aesthetic for historic homes

Not sure which material fits your home? Call (973) 713-1053 — we’ll walk your roof and give you the honest recommendation, free.

We Do Things Differently

Your roof is the most expensive thing on your house you can’t see — which means you’re trusting whoever’s up there to tell you the truth and do it right. That trust is the whole job. We earn it by showing you the photos, doing the work to spec, and telling you when you don’t need what a pushier roofer would sell you.

You See What’s On Your Roof

Most of your roof is somewhere you’ll never stand. We photograph what we find up there — the cracked flashing, the worn valleys, the spots that are still fine — and show you. If it has years left, we’ll tell you. We’re not here to sell you a roof you don’t need.

It’s All in Writing

You get a written estimate that spells out the scope and what’s covered before we tear off a single shingle. No vague numbers, no surprise add-ons once the old roof is off.

Proven Materials

Owens Corning, GAF, CertainTeed — brands with real track records and real manufacturer warranties. Materials we’d put on our own home.

One Company, Start to Finish

You deal with Nail Force the whole way through — one point of contact, one company that backs the roof in writing. Nobody handing you off, nobody pointing fingers if a shingle ever needs a second look.

Licensed & Insured

NJ licensed, fully insured, workers’ comp covered. Your property stays protected throughout the entire job.

Roofing Specialists

Roofing is what we do. Not a side service. Not a division. Every crew member is trained on roofing systems — flashing, ventilation, decking, all of it.

How We Handle a Roof vs. How It Usually Goes

You’ve probably heard a roofing horror story or two. Here’s where we do it differently.

The usual roofer
Nail Force
Stands in the driveway and quotes a number
Inspects the roof properly and shows you photos of what’s actually wrong
“The whole thing’s shot, you need a full replacement”
Tells you when a repair is enough — even though a replacement pays us more
Leaves nails in your driveway and lawn
Magnet-sweeps the whole property before we leave
Disappears after the check clears
Backs the roof in writing and walks it with you at the end

The Roofing Questions Nobody Likes to Ask

A roof is a big spend and you can’t see most of the work. Here’s the stuff that keeps people up at night.

“Are they pushing a full roof when I just need a repair?”

If a repair holds, we say repair. We show you the photos so you can see the difference for yourself — you’re not just taking our word.

“What happens if it leaks after they’re done?”

Every roof is backed by Nail Force in writing, plus the manufacturer’s warranty. If something’s off, we come back — that’s the whole point of putting it in writing.

“Will my insurance actually cover storm damage?”

We document the damage with photos and work straight with your adjuster — but we won’t tell you to file a claim you don’t have. That only hurts you later.

“Are they licensed and insured to be up there?”

NJ HIC #13VH14050100, full liability and workers’ comp. If a roofer can’t show you that before they climb up, that’s your answer.

Owens Corning Preferred Contractor

Why Being Owens Corning Preferred Matters for Your NJ Roof

Most roofing companies install Owens Corning shingles. Very few are actually Preferred Contractors — a status Owens Corning only awards to installers who complete factory training and meet installation quality standards. Here’s what that means for you.

Factory Training

Our roofing crews have completed Owens Corning’s installation training program. That means we know the SureNail nailing pattern, the correct starter-strip technique, the proper ice-and-water shield detail around penetrations — the details that separate a roof that lasts 25 years from one that leaks in 8.

Extended Warranty Access

As Preferred Contractors, we can register your roof for the Owens Corning System Warranty — stronger coverage than the standard shingle warranty, covering both materials and workmanship when installed per spec. Not available through non-Preferred installers.

Quality Standards

Owens Corning periodically reviews Preferred Contractors’ work. Staying in the program means maintaining a high standard of installation quality — not just when we’re being checked, but on every job. It’s a credential we earn continuously, not a plaque we hang and forget.

Preferred status applies to our roofing work only. For siding, windows, doors, gutters, and trim, we work with other high-quality manufacturers like CertainTeed, James Hardie, LP SmartSide, and others — products we know and trust.

Roofing Questions We Get Asked a Lot

If yours isn’t here, call us. We’ll give you a real answer.

We look at age, the number of problem areas, and the condition of the underlying deck and underlayment. One leak in a roof under 15 years old is usually a repair. Multiple leaks, granule loss across the roof, or a deck that’s seen moisture damage is typically a replacement. We tell you what we see honestly — we’re not trying to sell you a replacement you don’t need.

Every home is different — size, pitch, materials, and deck condition all affect price. We don’t quote numbers before seeing your roof because a number thrown out before an inspection is almost always wrong. We come out, inspect, and give you a clear written estimate before you make any decision.

Sudden storm damage — hail, wind, fallen trees — is generally covered. Age-related wear is not. We document damage thoroughly and can work directly with your adjuster, but we won’t tell you to file a claim if you don’t have a valid one. That’s not in your interest long-term.

We protect the property, tear off to a clean deck, and install the full system to manufacturer spec — and we show up when we say we will. You get a clear written scope up front, daily communication, and a final walkthrough, so nothing is left to guesswork. The job is done when it is right, not when we are rushing to the next one.

We install Owens Corning, GAF, and CertainTeed asphalt shingles, which cover most residential projects. We also work with VELUX for skylights, IKO for specific applications, and specialty tile products from Brava and DaVinci for premium projects. We’ll recommend what makes sense for your home and your budget — not just what’s easiest for us to install.

We cover all 14 NJ counties — from Bergen down to Ocean and across to Warren. That’s 400+ towns. No travel fees anywhere in our coverage area. If you’re not sure, call us and we’ll confirm immediately.
