Roofing Contractor in Highlands, NJ

Certified Roofing Specialists serves all of Highlands Borough including the hillside Twin Lights area and the Bay Avenue waterfront with roof replacement, repair, restoration, protection plans, and emergency roofing. Most Highlands single-family homes range from $11,000 to $25,000 for a full asphalt-shingle replacement. Same-business-day callbacks and same-week scheduling on most repairs.

Highlands sits at the southern foot of the Atlantic Highlands ridge on the Sandy Hook Bay waterfront. The housing stock is varied. The hillside blocks climbing toward the Twin Lights lighthouse carry a mix of Victorian-era and 1920s through 1940s cottages on steep terrain with complex roof geometry. The Bay Avenue and Marine Place waterfront blocks were hit hardest by Hurricane Sandy in 2012, and many of those homes are now post-Sandy reconstructions on raised foundations with newer architectural shingle roofs. The Shrewsbury Avenue and Linden Avenue inland blocks include 1950s through 1980s frame homes on tighter lots.

Wind exposure is severe on hillside homes climbing toward Twin Lights. Salt-air exposure is direct on every waterfront and hillside-facing block. Highlands experienced major Sandy storm surge damage in October 2012, and roofs replaced as part of post-Sandy rebuilds between 2013 and 2015 are now twelve to fourteen years old. CRS installs copper flashing as standard on every Highlands replacement and uses wind-rated underlayment with increased fastener counts on hillside and waterfront properties. The borough's construction office processes residential roofing permits in three to five business days.
