Published national figures put the average roof repair at around $900, inside a range of about $300 to $3,000. In Passaic, height and flat rear roofs move it: a handyman in a Passaic County thread put a two-hole repair at $1,500 to $2,500 at the height of the house he was looking at.
Note 02What to look for when choosing a roofing contractor?
A New Jersey home improvement contractor registration number on the quote, a written scope that names the materials, and a roofer who looks before pricing. In Passaic add one more: ask them where the water on your roof is meant to go, and why it stopped.
Note 03How long do shingles on a roof last?
Asphalt shingles are generally rated at 15 to 30 years. They wear out unevenly, though: valleys, eaves and the slopes that take the most water go first, which is why a roof with one worn slope is often a repair rather than a new roof.
Note 04How is a flat roof repaired?
By finding where the water sits and repairing that, in the membrane already on the roof. A flat roof rarely fails in the middle of a dry stretch: it fails at a blocked outlet, in a low spot, or at a seam that spends days underwater. The outlet is cleared, the low spot built up so water runs again, and the seam repaired in kind.
