Roof Repair
If your roof shows signs of damage, our skilled technicians can assess the situation and perform necessary repairs. We address issues such as leaks and storm damage, wear and tear, moss or algae growth, and broken or missing shingles. Our residential roofing team is also available for emergency repair services if your home sustained unexpected damage during a fire or severe weather event.

Roof Inspections
Regular roof inspections are crucial for maintaining your roof’s integrity and catching potential problems before they happen. Our detailed inspection process includes:
- Examining your home’s interior for signs of leaks
- Evaluating the exterior perimeter for damage
- Documenting potential issues with detailed photos
- Assessing critical areas and trouble spots on the roof
- Providing a detailed written report with analysis and recommendations
We inspect all crucial components, including shingles, decking, flashing, ventilation systems, and gutters, to ensure your roof’s optimal performance.
Specialized Roofing Solutions
Energy-Efficient Roofing
Energy-efficient roofing doesn’t just save the environment; it saves on energy and maintenance costs. More and more roofing materials are rated by Energy Star based on the extent to which they reflect heat. Unlike older roofing materials, which absorb heat and make air conditioners work harder than they should, energy-efficient roofing materials reject solar rays, meaning less heat transfer from your attic into your home. Not only can energy-efficient roofing save an average of $300 to $500 a year on utility bills, but it also adds to your home’s resale value.
Weather-Resistant Roofing
Certain roofing options are designed to withstand local climates. As Southern New Jersey’s most trusted residential roofing contractor, ECC Roofing & Siding carries roofing materials engineered to protect against the area’s heavy rain, snow, and high winds. Enjoy benefits such as leak-proof construction, wind and fire resistance, and reduced deterioration when you upgrade to weather-resistant roofing.
Roof Ventilation
Proper roof ventilation is critical for maintaining a healthy home and extending your roof’s lifespan. It involves a balanced system of exhaust and intake vents. Exhaust vents, like ridge vents, are typically placed near the roof’s peak to allow hot, moist air to escape. Intake vents, such as soffit vents, are installed lower on the roofline to bring in cool, fresh air. This combination creates an effective air flow that helps regulate attic temperatures and moisture levels, preventing issues like mold growth and premature roof deterioration.
In addition to ridge vents and soffit vents, ECC Roofing & Siding also installs gable-end vents and powered attic ventilators (PAVs).
Roof Flashing
Roof flashing is a vital component in preventing water infiltration at vulnerable points on your roof. This thin metal material is installed where shingles meet walls, chimneys, or roof valleys to direct water away from these areas. Commonly made from aluminum, steel, or copper, flashing plays a crucial role in maintaining your roof’s integrity and preventing water damage.
Skylights
Skylights are an elegant yet functional way to bring natural light into your home, improving both ambiance and energy efficiency. At ECC Roofing & Siding, we specialize in installing high-quality VELUX skylights, known for their “No Leak Promise” and extensive warranty coverage. We offer various options, including traditional skylights and Sun Tunnel skylights for smaller spaces. Our expertise extends to maintenance services, allowing us to repair or replace old skylights to enhance your home’s appearance and energy performance.

What are the signs that my roof needs to be repaired or replaced?
All too often, roof system problems are discovered after leaking or other serious damage occurs. Periodic inspections often uncover cracked, warped, or missing shingles; loose seams and deteriorated flashings; excessive surface granules accumulating in the gutters or downspouts; and other visible signs of roof system problems. Indoors, look for cracked paint, discolored plasterboard, and peeling wallpaper as signs of damaged roof areas.
How long does a typical roof installation or replacement take?
Depending on the materials you choose and the size of your roof, a residential roof installation may take up to 14 days. If installing asphalt shingles, anticipate 1-3 days; concrete tiles can take 8-9 days; and metal may take 1-2 weeks.
What roofing materials are best suited for the Southern New Jersey climate?
Southern New Jersey’s diverse climate demands roofing materials that can withstand varying weather conditions. Three popular options stand out for their durability and performance in this region:
- Asphalt Shingles: The most common choice, offering affordability, ease of installation, and weather resistance. Available in various colors and styles, they adapt well to New Jersey’s seasonal changes.
- Cedar Shakes: Ideal for homeowners seeking a rustic look, cedar shakes provide excellent insulation and natural resistance to insects. They perform well in New Jersey’s humid summers and cold winters.
- Slate Roofing: Though more expensive, slate offers superior longevity and resistance to fire, insects, mold, and extreme weather. It’s an excellent choice for those looking for a long-term roofing solution that can withstand New Jersey’s varied climate.
How often should I schedule a roof inspection?
The consensus is to have your roof inspected at least twice per year. Because of their milder weather patterns, fall and spring are the most favorable times to schedule these routine roof inspections. Additionally, if your home sustained severe storm damage, you may want to schedule additional inspections as needed to account for unanticipated damage from wind, snow, rain, or hale.
