Learn moreOur approach
We don't just replace shingles
Most roofers tear off your old roof and nail on a new one. We engineer a complete roofing system, because your roof does a lot more than keep rain out.
Ventilation
Warm moist air rises into your attic from cooking, showers, daily life. Without airflow, it gets trapped, rotting decking and killing shingles from the inside.
Insulation
The barrier between your living space and the attic. Done right, it slashes energy bills and keeps conditioned air where it belongs.
The full system
Underlayment, decking, flashing, ice & water shield. Every layer matters. Skip one and the whole system fails early.
Inspection
We come out, look at your roof, and give you an honest assessment. No sales pitch.
Proposal
A clear written quote. Materials, labor, timeline. The price we quote is the price you pay.
Installation
Our crew handles everything. Most roofs done in a single day. We clean up after ourselves.
Follow-up
We check back to make sure everything is right. Warranty on materials and workmanship.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY
We had an ice dam situation three winters in a row before we finally called Modern Exteriors. They came out, looked at the attic ventilation, explained exactly why it kept happening, and rebuilt the ridge ventilation before replacing the roof. First winter with the new system and not a single leak. Worth every dollar.
Straightforward process from estimate to install. Clean crew, honest pricing, no surprises.
Our 1920s colonial had some tricky valleys and a chimney that needed serious flashing work. The estimator flagged it upfront rather than hitting us with an add-on mid-job. That kind of honesty is rare.
After the May hailstorm we had three contractors come out. Modern Exteriors was the only one who walked the entire roof and photographed every damaged tab. Their insurance documentation was thorough and the claim went through without a fight.
We are up in Sussex County where winters are no joke. They used the wind-rated GAF system with six nails per shingle and proper ice and water shield up to four feet. First time I have not worried about the roof in February.
Good value, fast turnaround, and the crew left the site cleaner than they found it. The magnet pass at the end caught every stray nail.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Common questions about roofing in North Jersey
How much does a roof replacement cost in North Jersey?
Most North Jersey jobs land between ,999 and 9,500. A standard asphalt replacement on a 2,000 square foot home typically runs 4,500 to 7,000. Steeper pitches in Morris and Sussex County colonials push toward the higher end. Ranches in Somerset and Hunterdon come in lower. You get a written number after we walk the roof.
Do you handle ice dams in North Jersey?
Yes, and it is one of the most common calls we get from Morris, Sussex, and Warren County homeowners. Ice dams form when heat escapes through the attic deck, melts snow at the ridge, and refreezes at the cold eaves. We assess attic airflow, add baffles or ridge vent where needed, and install a full peel-and-stick ice and water shield at the eaves before the new shingles go on. A cosmetic shingle swap without fixing ventilation just restarts the cycle the next winter.
Is Modern Exteriors licensed to work in New Jersey?
Yes. We are a registered New Jersey home improvement contractor, fully insured with general liability and workers compensation on every project in the state.
Do you work in all seven North Jersey counties?
We cover Morris, Union, Essex, Somerset, Warren, Sussex, and Hunterdon counties. Our crews schedule free inspections the same week, including Saturdays.
What shingle system do you install in North Jersey?
We are GAF Master Elite certified and install GAF Timberline HDZ as our standard. For elevated counties like Sussex and Warren, we use the full six-nail pattern with StainGuard Plus and the LayerLock nail line to handle higher wind loading.
Can you work on older homes and historic colonials?
Yes. A lot of our Montclair, Madison, and Morristown work involves pre-war colonials and Tudors with complex roof geometry. We do full tear-offs, replace all decking where needed, and the estimate covers everything we uncover, not just what is visible from the ground.
How do you handle storm damage insurance claims?
We photograph every damaged tab, cap, and vent, write a detailed scope, and work directly with your adjuster. If the initial estimate is low, we submit supplements with photos and measurements. Storm claims in North Jersey often get underpaid on the first pass and we know what to push back on.
