Roof Replacement in Clearbrook, Monroe Township: what actually fails
Clearbrook went up between 1972 and 1993, so two neighbors on the same street can be twenty years apart. A replacement here starts with the year the house was finished, the number of layers on it and the age of each skylight, because a skylight put in with a 1970s house is not one to reflash into a new roof. Where an older house carries two layers, the tear-off is a line of its own.
A gated adult community built between 1972 and 1993, entered off Clearbrook Drive.
- Porch and sunroom roofs by their own age
- The year the house was finished, not the street
- Shingle still made, or a blend needed
- Layers counted before the deck is assumed

Call with the address
Tell us which community the house is in, whether it is one story or two, and how many skylights and chimneys the roof has.
Count the openings, then measure
Every chimney, skylight, vent and pipe boot is counted and looked at, then the roof is measured in squares and the attic checked.
A written quote, one line per opening
The squares are one line. Each skylight is its own line, reflash or replace; the chimney is its own line; boots and vents are counted.
The work, then the walkaround
Flashing photographed at every opening before it is covered, shingles woven in, photographs before and after.
What to do before anybody climbs a ladder
- 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.
- Count the openingsHow many skylights, which rooms they are over, and whether the chimney is in use. Then the house: detached or attached, one story or two, and which community, with the gate arranged if it has one.

Call (732) 532-0178Note 01Should a skylight be replaced with a new roof?
Often, if it is as old as the roof. A skylight reflashed into a new roof is an estimated $200 to $450; a new one is about $900 to $2,200 (one Monroe contractor's figures). If the old unit is fogged, cracked or past twenty years, reflashing it means opening the new roof again later, so the quote prices both and says which.
Note 02How often should a roof be replaced?
When it stops being repairable, not on a calendar. Asphalt shingle is generally rated at 15 to 30 years and metal at 40 to 70, but a roof is done when it leaks in several places, sags, or needs a new repair every season.
Note 03What is the cheapest option for a new roof?
Asphalt shingle, up front, at about $1 to $4 a square foot nationally against $4 to $30 for metal. On top of the shingle, the cheapest honest roof keeps every sound opening: a skylight that can be reflashed is not replaced just because the roof is.
