Storm Damage Roof Repair NJ: Common Issues
Hurricane and Nor'easter Damage
New Jersey's coastal location makes it vulnerable to hurricanes and nor'easters. These storms typically cause widespread shingle damage, torn flashing, and debris impact. After Hurricane Ida in 2021, we repaired over 200 roofs in Bergen and Essex counties alone. The National Hurricane Center provides valuable storm tracking and preparation resources.
Hail Damage Recognition
Hail damage can be subtle but devastating. Look for exposed mat on shingles, granule loss in gutters, and dented metal components. New Jersey sees significant hail activity, particularly in spring and early summer months. The National Severe Storms Laboratory tracks hail patterns across the region.
Wind Damage Assessment
High winds can lift shingles, damage flashing, and cause structural issues. Our technicians are trained to identify wind damage patterns and provide comprehensive assessments for insurance purposes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Our average response time for emergency roof repair in New Jersey is 2 hours. For critical situations (active leaks, safety hazards), we aim to arrive within 1 hour. Our 24/7 dispatcher service and strategically positioned crews in Bergen, Essex, Monmouth, and other major counties make this possible.
Emergency tarping typically costs $400-800, depending on roof size and accessibility. Permanent repairs range from $300-1,500 for small leaks to $3,000-8,000 for extensive storm damage. We always provide a free on-site estimate and work directly with your insurance to minimize out-of-pocket costs.
Most insurance policies cover emergency tarping and repairs when damage is caused by "covered perils" like storms, hail, or falling objects. Preventive maintenance is typically not covered. We help with all documentation and communicate directly with your adjuster to expedite the claims process.
We provide emergency roof repair during storms when it's safe to do so. Safety is our top priority - we won't risk our technicians' lives during severe weather. However, we can often provide emergency tarping and temporary repairs during weather windows and immediately after storms pass.
