Our Work in Lacey
Full Replacement in Forked River
A 1979 ranch in Forked River with 22-year-old three-tab shingles showing severe granule erosion, corroded pipe flashings, and an active chimney leak where the galvanized step flashing had degraded from years of salt-air exposure. The homeowner had been managing the chimney leak with buckets for the past year.
Complete tear-off with four sheets of softened plywood replaced, new synthetic underlayment, GAF Timberline HDZ architectural shingles in Barkwood, all-new corrosion-resistant chimney flashings, continuous ridge vent installation, and added soffit vents for proper airflow balance. Zero leaks through two full storm seasons.
Wind Damage Repair in Lanoka Harbor
A 1990s colonial in Lanoka Harbor where a March nor'easter with 65 mph gusts peeled shingles from the entire south-facing gable, exposed the underlayment to rain, and tore the ridge cap loose along a 20-foot section. Water intrusion into the master bedroom and hallway.
Emergency tarp within three hours of the call. Permanent repair the following week with matched architectural shingles on the affected slope, new ridge cap hand-sealed against wind lift, re-sealed pipe flashings inspected during the repair, and new drip edge on the damaged gable rake. Full insurance claim documentation provided.
Commercial Roof on Route 9 Corridor
A 5,500 square foot professional office complex on Route 9 with a failing EPDM membrane. Ponding water near two HVAC units, seam separation at the parapet connections, and repeated patch repairs that kept failing within months of application.
Complete EPDM removal, tapered insulation creating positive drainage away from HVAC units, 60-mil TPO membrane with fully welded seams and reinforced HVAC curb flashings, new aluminum edge metal. The building manager reported elimination of all ponding and zero leak incidents since completion.

Roofing Costs in Lacey
Roofing costs in Lacey Township occupy a moderate position within Ocean County, reflecting the township's mix of bayside and inland neighborhoods. Waterfront properties along Barnegat Bay in Forked River and Lanoka Harbor carry a modest coastal premium for salt-air-resistant materials, while the inland developments west of Route 9 align with standard Ocean County pricing. The ranges below come from actual Lacey projects completed in the past two years.
What Affects Your Roofing Cost in Lacey
Lacey homes range from compact ranches measuring 12 to 16 roofing squares to larger colonials and raised ranches near the bay reaching 20 to 28 squares. Custom homes on larger western lots may exceed 30 squares.
Many Lacey colonials have moderate to steep pitches with dormers and valleys that add installation complexity. Ranch-style homes have gentler slopes that allow faster, more efficient crew work.
Architectural shingles are the standard across Lacey. Bayside homes benefit from algae-resistant and enhanced wind-rated options. Three-tab remains available for budget projects but is increasingly rare on new installations due to the minimal cost difference relative to performance gains.
Homes built before 1990 in Lacey frequently have inadequate ventilation. The bayside humidity makes proper airflow especially important for attic moisture management and shingle longevity. Ventilation upgrades are commonly included in replacement projects.
Older Lacey homes may reveal compromised decking during tear-off, particularly around chimney flashings and in valley areas where debris accumulation has trapped moisture against the roof surface for years.
Properties near Barnegat Bay in Forked River and Lanoka Harbor require coastal-grade materials that carry a modest premium over standard inland specifications. The difference adds approximately 8 to 12 percent to comparable inland projects.
| Service/Category | Low Range | High Range |

| Minor Repairs | $225 | $1,050 |
| Major Repairs | $1,000 | $3,800 |
| Full Replacement | $7,500 | $19,500 |
| Commercial | $10,000 | $50,000 |

What Lacey Homeowners Say
Our Forked River ranch is three blocks from the bay and the chimney flashings had corroded through from the salt air. Every other roofer we called wanted to replace the whole roof. These guys climbed up, inspected everything thoroughly, and told us the shingles still had five to seven years of life but every flashing needed replacement. They did the flashing work in one day with corrosion-resistant materials and saved us thousands compared to a premature full replacement. That kind of honesty is why we will call them when we do need a full roof.
-- Helen and George P.
Lacey
A massive nor'easter in January stripped 40 shingles off the west side of our Lanoka Harbor colonial. They responded within four hours, tarped the entire exposed area, and came back the next week for the permanent repair. The color match with our existing shingles was perfect and the repair is completely invisible. They also noticed a flashing issue near our skylight that predated the storm and pointed it out so we could address it. Thorough and trustworthy.
-- Mark W.
Lacey
We own a commercial building on Route 9 that had been plagued by flat roof leaks for years. Multiple roofers had applied patches that lasted a few months at best. These contractors actually diagnosed the problem: poor drainage causing ponding. They replaced the entire system with tapered insulation and TPO membrane. It has been two years of heavy Ocean County weather and not a single drop of water has come through. Should have called them first.
-- Tony R., Lacey Business Park
Lacey
Our home backs up to the woods in western Lacey and the north side of the roof was covered in moss that we could never keep under control. During the roof replacement, they installed zinc strips along the ridgeline and trimmed back the overhanging branches. Two years later, no moss. The new shingles look great, the zinc strips are doing their job, and we have gone from calling roofers annually to calling them never. Best money we have spent on this house.
