Roof Replacement / New Roof in Bloomfield, NJ
A roof replacement is a full-system project, not just new shingles on top of old ones. Our process begins with a complete tear-off of the existing roofing material, followed by a thorough inspection of the decking below — any soft, rotted, or compromised sheathing is replaced before anything goes back on. We then install a code-compliant underlayment system appropriate for NJ's freeze-thaw climate before the new field material goes on, and every project is closed with a Bloomfield Township inspection to confirm it meets NJ Uniform Construction Code requirements. Workmanship is warranted separately from the manufacturer's material warranty, so you have coverage on both the product and the installation.

New Jersey Regulations for This Project Type
- A building permit is required for residential roof replacement in Bloomfield Township — this applies to full tear-offs, re-roofing, and structural changes, not just new construction
- Bloomfield's Construction Department enforces the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code (UCC), which is based on the International Residential Code (IRC) with NJ-specific amendments — all work must conform to these standards
- Plan review by Bloomfield's Building Division takes approximately 10 business days; roofing permit applications can be submitted online or in person through the Township
- The plan review fee is 20% of the construction permit fee, with a minimum subcode fee of $90; for Essex County residential roof replacements, permit fees typically run $150–$350 depending on project value — confirm your specific project cost with the Bloomfield Construction Department
- Your contractor must hold a valid NJ Home Improvement Contractor (HIC) license number, which is required on the permit application — always verify your roofer's license before signing a contract
Rules like these change often and vary by lot — the fastest way to know what applies to your property is to ask.
