What we find on North Hanover roofs.
Housing here dates to 1994 at the median, across roughly 3,135 units.
Housing from these years is bigger and more cut-up than anything before it, built right as architectural shingles took over from three-tab. The complexity is in the roofline rather than the condition, so these price on area and detail rather than on repair.
Single-family houses sit alongside two- and three-families on the same streets, which means pitched and low-slope roofs a few doors apart. They are different jobs with different materials and different prices.
With around 8,011 people spread across 18 square miles, properties here sit far apart — long driveways, mature trees and plenty of room to work. North Hanover was incorporated in 1905, 121 years ago. It was carved out of New Hanover Township.
What we build against here
This is Burlington County: the state's largest county by area, reaching from close-in suburbs out into the Pine Barrens. This is pitch pine country, and that is hard on a roof in a specific way. Needle drop is continuous here, and needles behave differently from leaves — they mat, they hold water, and they do not blow clear. That constant damp is what shortens shingle life here well before the warranty says it should.

“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 North Hanover 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 1994, 29% of the stock built before 1980 and a lot of attached and multi-family building, North Hanover sees more of that variation than a newer town would. The inspection settles it before you get a number.
You do, and we take care of it. Permits for a roof come from the North Hanover construction office under the state Uniform Construction Code, and we pull the permit, schedule the inspection and meet the inspector ourselves.

One day, for the large majority of houses. The crew arrives at first light, strips the old roof, dries the deck in and finishes before dark. North Hanover is about 19 miles from our Manalapan base, well inside the area our crews cover daily.
About 37% of homes in North Hanover 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.
