Roof Replacement
Full tear-off replacement, done the right way.
The Work
What a real roof replacement looks like.
When a roof is past the point of repair, a replacement is the only call that actually solves the problem. We tear the old system all the way down to the decking, correct anything the old roof was hiding, and rebuild it layer by layer so the next 30–50 years are not your problem.
Why It Matters
Why a real replacement beats a cover-over
Laying new shingles over old is faster and cheaper in the short term. It is also how homeowners end up paying for two roofs. A cover-over hides rotted decking, failing flashing, and moisture damage that will chew through the new shingles from underneath. On the coast, where wind and salt air already shorten shingle life, skipping the tear-off is a bet you lose. Every Home Pro replacement is full tear-off, full inspection, full rebuild. No shortcuts.
What's Included
Every line item on the estimate.
No hidden add-ons, no surprise upcharges. This is what the price covers on every Home Pro roof replacement job.
Full tear-off and disposal
Every layer comes off, down to the decking. Debris loaded directly onto our dumpster, yard swept with a magnet roller before we leave.
Decking inspection and repair
Rotted or compromised plywood gets replaced on the spot. Priced transparently in the original estimate — no surprise charges.
Ice and water shield
Self-adhering membrane along eaves, valleys, and penetrations. The waterproof backbone that keeps winter ice dams from driving water under the shingles.
Synthetic underlayment
Full-coverage synthetic underlayment across the field. Stronger, drier, and more tear-resistant than traditional felt paper.
GAF Timberline HDZ shingles
Factory-certified architectural shingles rated to 130 mph with the LayerLock bond that makes the warranty possible. Color match verified on-site before install.
Flashing, step flashing, and pipe boots
All metal flashing replaced, not reused. Step flashing woven into every shingle course, chimneys counter-flashed and sealed.
Ridge vent and attic airflow
Balanced intake and exhaust so the attic stays dry in winter and cool in summer. Bad ventilation is the single fastest way to cook a shingle warranty.

Why Home Pro
Reviews
5.0 stars across Google.
“We had a great experience with Stephen and HomePro Remodeling! From our first meeting, Stephen was professional, honest, and offered the best price after 5 other quotes. The crew showed up on time and worked efficiently and neatly. Stephen even came by to do a final quality check before we made the last payment. The roof looks fantastic.”
“From the very first meeting with the owner, Stephen, we were impressed with his knowledge, expertise, and integrity. Stephen's crew, Marek and Irek, were equally outstanding. The craftsmanship and attention to detail exceeded our expectations, and the transformation of our home is simply beautiful.”
FAQ
The questions homeowners actually ask.
How long does a roof replacement actually take?
For a typical 2,000–3,000 sq ft home in Ocean or Monmouth County, one to three days of install time once the crew is on site. Permitting, material ordering, and weather windows usually put the full project at 7–14 days from signed estimate to warranty registration.
Will my homeowners insurance cover a replacement?
If the damage is from a covered event — wind, hail, a tree limb — often yes. We are on-site for insurance adjuster meetings, document damage with the photo report, and help make sure nothing legitimate gets denied.
What is the real difference between a $9,000 roof and a $17,000 roof?
Usually: whether it is a cover-over or a true tear-off, whether ice and water shield was installed, whether flashing was replaced or reused, and whether the installer is factory-certified to register the manufacturer warranty. The labor is a small fraction of the lifetime difference.
Do you replace rotted decking as part of the price?
Decking repair is priced transparently per sheet in the original estimate. If we find more than that once the roof is open, we photograph it, show you before replacing, and charge at the same per-sheet rate — never with a surprise markup.
What warranty do I actually walk away with?
A GAF Timberline HDZ system install comes with a 50-year limited material warranty registered in your name. Our workmanship is backed for 10 years in writing. Both are documented in your close-out packet before we leave.
