The Brick houses we work on.
Brick counts about 33,277 housing units, and the median one went up in 1976 — in the late 1970s and 1980s. About 59% predate 1980.
Plywood decking, three-tab shingles and an attached garage are the constants on housing from these years. The decking is generally sound, which keeps these jobs predictable — the variable is ventilation, which often was not done right.
Brick covers about 32 square miles and is home to roughly 75,482 people. The township dates to 1850. It was carved out of Toms River Township.
What we build against here
Brick sits in Ocean County — barrier islands, bayfront neighborhoods and large planned communities inland. Brick sits on the coastal side of Ocean County, and that changes what goes on the roof rather than just how it is fastened. Two things do the damage here and both are edge conditions. Salt attacks the metal — fasteners, drip edge, flashing — from the hidden side, and coastal wind lifts whatever the salt has already loosened. Corrosion-resistant components and a properly sealed eave and rake are the whole defense.

“Honest about everything. They showed up on time, kept the property clean, and the roof came out amazing. Made everything stress free.”
Straight answers.
Roofing in Brick typically runs $9,000 to $22,000. What moves a given house within that band is size, pitch and what is already on the roof — and with a median build year of 1976 and 59% of the stock built before 1980, Brick sees more of that variation than a newer town would. We work that out at the inspection, not after the job starts.
Yes — this work is permitted by Brick's own construction office under New Jersey's Uniform Construction Code. Handling the permit and the inspection is part of what we do, and it is already in the price.
Yes, in two specific ways. We use corrosion-resistant flashing and fasteners because salt air attacks ordinary metal from underneath, and we use high-wind nailing patterns with sealed starter courses at the eaves and rakes, which is where coastal storms lift a roof first.
Most residential roofs are torn off and replaced in a single day — crews start early, strip, dry-in and finish the same afternoon. Brick is about 20 miles from our Manalapan base, well inside the area our crews cover daily.
Yes — Normandy Beach is part of the same municipality as Brick, and our crews cover the whole of it at the same pricing.
