Our Work in Harvey Cedars
Oceanfront Estate Metal Roof Installation
A custom oceanfront estate with a 12-year-old premium shingle roof showing severe salt degradation on the ocean-facing slopes. Despite quality initial materials, the extreme exposure had accelerated granule loss to the point where the fiberglass mat was visible. The homeowner wanted a permanent solution.
Complete installation of standing-seam aluminum metal roofing with concealed fasteners, marine-grade underlayment, custom-fabricated flashing details at the complex roofline, and stainless steel snow guards. The metal system provides 40-plus year performance and eliminates the barrier island shingle replacement cycle.
Bayfront Storm Damage Repair Near Sunset Park
A bayfront home along the Sunset Park area hit by a November nor'easter that peeled 20 wind-rated shingles from the bay-facing gable and drove salt water through corroded pipe flashings into the second-floor study. The homeowner discovered the damage during a mid-winter visit.
Emergency tarp within four hours. Permanent repair with matched wind-rated shingles, new marine-grade pipe boots, hand-sealed ridge cap with coastal adhesive, and replacement of all corroding flashings discovered during the repair inspection.
Post-Sandy Home Shingle Upgrade
A 2014 elevated home with builder-grade shingles reaching premature end of life at just 10 years. The barrier island environment had caused granule loss and edge curling not expected for another decade on the mainland. Several flashings showed early corrosion signs.
Complete tear-off revealing sound OSB decking. Upgrade from builder-grade to GAF Timberline HDZ with maximum wind rating, all-new corrosion-resistant flashings, marine-grade sealants at every penetration, and enhanced ridge vent. Built to dramatically outlast the original installation.

Roofing Costs in Harvey Cedars
Roofing costs in Harvey Cedars are among the highest on Long Beach Island, reflecting the premium housing stock, extreme barrier island exposure, and mandatory coastal-grade material specifications. Every Harvey Cedars project is a high-end coastal project. The ranges below come from actual barrier island work over the past two years.
What Affects Your Roofing Cost in Harvey Cedars
Harvey Cedars homes range from modest beach cottages at 12 to 16 roofing squares to large custom oceanfront estates reaching 35 to 50 squares. Estate homes represent some of the largest residential roofing projects on LBI.
Custom homes frequently feature complex multi-level rooflines with multiple ridges, valleys, skylights, and architectural details that add significant labor and material complexity to every project.
Barrier island materials are the baseline. Many homeowners specify designer shingles, standing-seam metal, or other premium products that add to the already elevated coastal material cost. Wind ratings of 130 mph are minimum.
Extreme ocean proximity creates constant humidity demanding superior attic ventilation. Salt-compatible vent components and enhanced airflow design prevent interior moisture damage that degrades roofing from the inside.
Most Harvey Cedars homes sit on elevated foundations 8 to 14 feet above grade. The height adds staging and safety requirements that increase labor costs compared to grade-level structures.
All materials travel the Route 72 causeway to reach Harvey Cedars near the center of LBI. Material delivery coordination and limited staging space on premium lots contribute to project logistics costs.
| Service/Category | Low Range | High Range |

| Major Repairs | $1,400 | $5,500 |

What Harvey Cedars Homeowners Say
Our oceanfront estate needed a complete roof system upgrade after the third set of shingles failed in 18 years. They recommended standing-seam metal and the result is stunning. Four years of direct Atlantic exposure and the roof performs flawlessly. No maintenance, no corrosion, no concerns during storms. The investment was significant but knowing we will never replace this roof again makes it worthwhile.
-- Robert and Patricia C.
Harvey Cedars
A winter nor'easter damaged our bayfront home while we were in Palm Beach. Our property manager called them and they had tarps up within hours. They sent us detailed photos of all damage, handled the insurance documentation, and completed the permanent repair before we returned in spring. Managing a barrier island emergency remotely requires a contractor you can trust completely, and they earned that trust.
-- William D.
Harvey Cedars
They replaced the builder-grade roof on our 2014 post-Sandy home with premium wind-rated shingles and marine-grade flashings. The difference in quality from the original builder installation is obvious. The new materials are holding up dramatically better against the salt and wind. We should have upgraded sooner rather than waiting for the builder materials to fail.
-- Jennifer and Mark S.
Harvey Cedars
We needed a sensitive repair on our 1965 beach house that has been in the family for three generations. They matched the existing shingle color and style perfectly, repaired the damage without disturbing the rest of the roof, and the finished work is invisible. They respected that this home has meaning beyond its market value. That kind of care is not common and it is deeply appreciated.
-- The Harrison Family
