Urgent Roofing Fix in North Arlington: Expert Service

In North Arlington, NJ, Bergen County, a homeowner faced a challenge. His roof, aged over twenty years, had prompted his insurance company to threaten cancellation unless it was replaced. After multiple unsuccessful attempts with other contractors, he turned to Stern Gutters for a solution.

The Challenge: The primary task was clear but demanding: replace the roof swiftly to ensure insurance reinstatement. Time was of the essence, with a tight deadline looming. The homeowner’s specific requirement for Biscayne Blue shingles added another layer of complexity, as these were not readily available through standard suppliers.

Mobilizing Resources: Our approach began with leveraging our extensive relationships in the tri-state area. We reached out to top vendors across New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and New York, sourcing the specific shingles that others had struggled to find. This network, built over years of collaboration, allowed us to secure the materials in record time.

Navigating Logistical Challenges: Securing a dumpster permit posed another hurdle. With a quick turnaround required, we personally delivered applications to City Hall, ensuring no time was wasted. By swiftly adapting to these challenges, we set the stage for a seamless execution.

Efficient Execution: On the morning of September 14th, our crew arrived at the homeowner’s site, ready to begin work. The tear-off of the old roof commenced immediately. Despite discovering an older style wooden decking, our team was well-prepared. With minimal replacement needed, we moved forward, installing ice and water shields, synthetic felt, and a ridge vent, ensuring a robust and long-lasting result.

The Outcome: By the end of the first day, the main residence’s roof was complete. The following day, the garage roof was re-shingled. The homeowner not only received a stunning new roof but also peace of mind. The insurance company reinstated his policy, and the homeowner was thrilled with the outcome, both aesthetically and financially.

Chimney and Window Trim Customization: To complement the new Biscayne Blue shingles, we worked closely with the homeowner to select a custom color for the chimney aluminum trim. The chosen color grey, perfectly matched the roof, enhancing the overall aesthetic and creating a cohesive look. This attention to detail extended to the window trim as well, providing a polished and harmonious finish to the entire property.
