Roof Repair in Bayonne, NJ: what actually fails

Most shingle repairs in Bayonne are estimated at $500 to $2,000. The first job on any call is to work out which roof is leaking, the pitched front or the flat rear, because they are repaired in different materials and a repair on the wrong one fixes nothing.

Hudson County's southernmost city, about 72,000 people on the peninsula between the bay and the Kill Van Kull, built up largely as a dense grid of two- and three-family row homes between 1890 and 1940.

04Before we arrive

What to do before anybody climbs a ladder

  1. Catch the water and photograph itA bucket under the drip, belongings moved, and a few photographs of the stain before anything is touched. Keep clear of wet ceilings near a light fixture and switch that circuit off if it is safe to.
  2. Note which part of the houseFront rooms under the pitch, or the back rooms under the flat rear. That one detail usually tells a roofer which roof to look at first.

Note 01What is the most common roof repair?

On Bayonne row homes, a failed seam or a parapet flashing on the flat rear, followed by flashing, pipe boots and lifted shingles on the pitched front. Roofers working the city report failed flat seams and parapet and coping flashing as the things they find most often.

Note 02What is the cheapest way to repair a roof?

Fix the actual failure once, as early as possible, on the right roof. Find out first whether the water is coming off the front pitch or the flat rear, then repair that detail properly: shingles woven in, flashing renewed, a seam welded in the same membrane, rather than cement over the top.

Note 03Should I replace my roof if it's not leaking?

Usually not yet. A dry roof with a few worn shingles or an old but sound flat membrane is a candidate for a repair and a watchful eye. The exceptions are a flat roof that cores wet, or one that is soft underfoot, because by the time those leak the deck is already gone.
