Can my roof be repaired instead of replaced?
Yes, a roof can usually be repaired when the damage is in one area, such as a few missing shingles, a cracked pipe boot or a flashing leak, and the rest of the roof is in good shape. Replacement makes more sense when leaks keep coming back, shingles are worn across the whole roof or the deck is soft in many places. A free Terra Nova inspection tells you which one you need.
What we repair
Missing shingles
Wind and storm damage, matched as closely as possible.

What changes the price
Every repair is priced after a free inspection. You get the exact price in writing before any work. These things change it:
- What's damaged: a pipe boot is smaller than chimney flashing.
- Roof height, pitch and access.
- Roofing material: shingle, flat, metal or slate.
- Hidden damage: rotted decking is shown to you first.
- Emergency service for active leaks.
Repairs North Jersey roofs need most
| Problem | Common cause here |
|---|---|
| Leak at chimney | Old step and counter flashing on brick chimneys |
| Shingles blown off | Nor'easter and thunderstorm winds |
| Leak along the eaves | Ice dams in winter |
| Leak in bathroom ceiling | Cracked pipe boot |
| Leak on rear addition | Roof too flat for shingles |
How long will the repair last?
A repair is only as good as the roof around it. On a roof with plenty of life left, a proper flashing or pipe boot repair can last many years. On a worn-out roof, the next weak spot often starts leaking soon after. We tell you honestly which one you have, and give you prices for both a repair and a replacement when it's close.
Emergency roof repair
When water is coming in, the first job is to stop it. We tarp or dry-in the damaged area as soon as it's safe to be on the roof, photograph the damage for your insurance company, and schedule the permanent repair as soon as the roof is dry. What to do while you wait →
Common emergencies we handle: trees and large branches on the roof, shingles torn off in nor'easters, flashing lifted by wind, and ice dam leaks pouring through ceilings in January and February.

Questions homeowners ask
How fast can you repair my roof?
Active leaks can often be tarped quickly, and permanent repairs are scheduled as soon as the roof is dry.
Will the new shingles match?
We match as closely as possible. Older shingles fade, so a small difference in color is common.
Do you fix leaks other roofers couldn't?
We trace leaks from the attic and the roof, and we check for attic condensation so you don't pay for the wrong repair. Leak or condensation? →
Is a roof repair covered by insurance?
Damage from wind, hail or a fallen tree often is. Wear and age are not. Insurance and roof leaks →
Do you repair flat roofs?
Yes: EPDM rubber, TPO and modified bitumen.
Is the inspection free?
Yes. Call 973-200-1617.
Do you offer same-day roof repair?
For active leaks we respond as fast as we can and tarp the roof if needed.
Can you repair roofs other companies installed?
Yes.
Can you repair a roof in winter?
Yes, whenever the roof is safe to work on.
Do you repair gutters and roof edges too?
Yes. Gutters →
