What we find on Shamong roofs.
The typical home across the township was built in 1979, and of the 2,534 housing units here the median sits squarely in the late 1970s and 1980s. About 55% predate 1980.
Plywood decking, three-tab shingles and an attached garage are the constants on housing from these years. These are the most straightforward full replacements we do, provided the garage junction gets proper flashing.
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.
With around 6,497 people spread across 45 square miles, properties here sit far apart — long driveways, mature trees and plenty of room to work. Shamong was incorporated in 1852, 174 years ago. It was carved out of Southampton.
Local conditions we build for
This is Burlington County: the state's largest county by area, reaching from close-in suburbs out into the Pine Barrens. The pines around Shamong are the condition that matters most here. Pitch pine drops needles year-round rather than leaves once in autumn. Needles pack into valleys and gutters, hold moisture against the shingle, and stay there. 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 Shamong 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 1979 and 55% of the stock built before 1980, Shamong sees more of that variation than a newer town would. That is all visible at the free inspection, so the written number accounts for it.
Yes — this work is permitted by Shamong'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.
