What we find on Mantoloking roofs.
The typical home in Mantoloking was built in 1973, and of the 430 housing units here the median sits squarely through the 1960s and early 1970s. About 54% predate 1980.
Plywood sheathing arrived in these years, but so did the multi-level roofline that makes these houses leak in predictable places. Done properly, those junctions stop being a maintenance item; done with sealant, they come back every few years.
Big lots and heavy tree cover produce two recurring problems here: north slopes that stay shaded and grow moss, and limb damage after every real storm.
Mantoloking covers about 1 square miles and is home to roughly 481 people. At roughly 0 feet above sea level, drainage matters as much as the roof itself. Mantoloking was incorporated in 1911, 115 years ago. It was carved out of Brick Township.
Local conditions we build for
This is Ocean County: barrier islands, bayfront neighborhoods and large planned communities inland. Mantoloking sits on the coastal side of Ocean County, and that changes what goes on the roof rather than just how it is fastened. The failure starts underneath, on the metal: fasteners and flashing corrode where they cannot be seen, years before anything shows on the surface. Wind then finds the weakened edge. That is why the specification here is corrosion-resistant metal throughout and a sealed, high-wind-nailed perimeter.

“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 Mantoloking typically runs $25,000 to $60,000. 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 1973 and 54% of the stock built before 1980, Mantoloking sees more of that variation than a newer town would. The inspection settles it before you get a number.
Yes — this work is permitted by Mantoloking'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. Mantoloking is about 24 miles from our Manalapan base, well inside the area our crews cover daily.
About 35% of homes in Mantoloking were built since 2000, and that is exactly the age at which builder-grade shingles, flashing and gutters start to fail. A roof can be twenty years old and still be original.
