Roofing across Atlantic County.

Lightning Construction is a veteran- and family-owned, GAF-certified contractor serving Atlantic County — home to Atlantic City, the barrier-island beach towns and fast-growing mainland suburbs.

Across Atlantic County's 23 municipalities there are about 132,199 housing units, and the median one was built in 1973. On average 57% of the housing in each town here predates 1980, which is the line either side of which a roof replacement stops being routine and starts involving decking and ventilation. The spread inside the county is wide: Egg Harbor City has a median build year of 1957 while Egg Harbor sits at 1993. Those are different houses with different roofs, and they do not price alike. Longport carries the highest median home value in the county, at $1.1 million.

What we build against here

9 of the municipalities here sit on the water, and coastal specification is different work: corrosion-resistant flashing and fasteners, high-wind nailing at the eaves and rakes, and sealed starter courses. Inland Atlantic County towns do not need any of that, and we do not charge for it there.
