Storm damage repair is the process of assessing and fixing the harm a Nor'easter, hurricane, or severe thunderstorm leaves behind on your roof. When wind gusts tear shingles loose or hail cracks the granules, water finds its way in. It wicks along the decking, erodes the underlayment, and soon you are staring at a brown stain on your ceiling. This service covers everything from replacing a few blown-off shingles to re-sealing flashing and re-fastening loose field courses.
You need storm damage repair when you spot granule loss in your gutters, a shingle that has curled or split, or a section of roof that sags after a big storm. Sometimes the damage is hidden — a puncture from a branch may not leak for weeks. That is why we walk every inch of your roof, checking for exposed fasteners, lifted laps, and tears around vents and chimneys. In Toms River, the salt air from Barnegat Bay and the humidity accelerate corrosion, so even small cracks can spall and peel faster than they would inland.
Our process starts with a tear-off of the damaged area, down to the substrate. We inspect the decking for rot and decay, replace any soft boards, and lay self-adhered ice and water shield in valleys and along eaves. New shingles go in with ring-shank nails, set in staggered courses and a starter course at the edge, so the repair blends with the rest of your roof. We back-nail the field course where wind uplift is a concern. The work usually takes one to two days, depending on the size of the affected section.
