Roof Replacement in Forsgate, Monroe Township: what actually fails
On a Forsgate family home the roof is usually the larger job in the township: more squares, and where the house is a two-story colonial, a steeper pitch with more safety setup. The chimney on a two-story house needs staging before its counter-flashing can be cut into the brick, and that staging is priced on the chimney's line, not hidden in the squares.

Call (732) 532-0178Note 01How long do shingles on a roof last?
Asphalt shingle is generally rated at 15 to 30 years. Three-tab sits toward the short end and architectural toward the long end, and ventilation and the eaves detail decide where a given roof lands. Granules in the downspouts and curling edges are the signs it is near the end.
Note 02How much does it cost to replace a 2800 sq. ft. roof?
If 2,800 square feet is the roof surface, that is 28 squares, and at the estimated $450 to $650 a square published for Monroe it comes to roughly $12,600 to $18,200 in architectural shingle before decking, skylights and the chimney. If it is the house's floor area, the same figures put a 2,200 to 2,800 square foot house at about $14,000 to $19,000.
Note 03Should 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.
