Built for New Jersey weather
North Jersey roofs and gutters take a beating: freeze-thaw cycles all winter, nor'easters with wind-driven rain, heavy wet snow, ice dams, and summer thunderstorms that drop an inch of rain in an hour. Every Terra Nova roof includes ice and water protection at the eaves and valleys, new flashing at every wall and chimney, and a check of attic ventilation, because those are the details that fail first in our climate.
Questions to ask any roofer before you hire
- Are you registered and insured in New Jersey? Ask for the registration number and proof of insurance.
- Will you tear off the old roof? A full tear-off lets the decking be checked.
- What's included? Ice and water shield, underlayment, drip edge, flashing, pipe boots and ventilation should all be in writing.
- What warranty do I get? Ask about both the manufacturer warranty and the workmanship guarantee.
- Who cleans up? Nails, debris and the dumpster should be part of the job.
- Do you need a deposit? Be careful with large cash deposits and door-to-door storm chasers.
