Roofing & siding contractor in South Orange
Village of Victorians and tudors with steep pitches and decorative detail that raises the labor content of a tear-off.
All Elite Roofing & Siding has worked out of Hackensack since 1999, and South Orange is inside our everyday territory, not a market we drive to when the schedule is thin. That matters on the details homeowners never see in a brochure: how quickly the permit gets filed, whether the crew foreman has dealt with this building department before, and whether anyone picks up the phone on day three of the job.
Essex has one of the oldest housing stocks in the state. A large share of the roofs we replace here are on homes built before 1940, which means steeper pitches, more valleys and dormers, and decking that has to be inspected rather than assumed. We tear off to deck on every job for exactly this reason.
Services in South Orange
Roof replacement
Full tear-off to deck, GAF shingle systems, new flashing at every penetration, and a registered manufacturer warranty.
Roof repair
Lifted shingles, failed pipe boots, chimney flashing separation, and valley leaks. Repaired honestly when a repair is genuinely enough.
Siding installation
Vinyl and James Hardie fiber cement, installed over properly detailed house wrap with trim and fascia wrapped.
Seamless gutters
Fabricated on site in one continuous run, so there is no seam to leak, with guards available.
Storm damage
Wind, hail, ice dam, and tree-impact damage documented for your insurer.
24/7 emergency
Active leak? We tarp first to stop the water, then scope the permanent repair.
Appearance is part of the scope here in South Orange
Material and colour choice deserve a conversation before anything is ordered. On a street where the houses read as a set, a mismatched roof is visible from the far end of the block.
Homes in or beside a designated historic district can carry an extra review step, which we flag during the estimate rather than after the material arrives.
Older rooflines bring more valleys, dormers and chimneys, and those are flashing-intensive. We scope them by detail rather than by square footage alone.

South Orange roofing questions
Do I need a permit to replace my roof in South Orange?
A full tear-off and re-roof generally requires a construction permit under the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code, and requirements vary by municipality. We confirm what South Orange requires before the job starts, file the application with our NJ Home Improvement Contractor license number, and schedule the inspections ourselves. We never skip a permit to save time. An unpermitted replacement can surface during a home sale and complicate the title transfer.
How much does a roof replacement cost in South Orange?
Our average full roof replacement runs $8,857.34 average project. The real number depends on square footage, pitch, the number of valleys and penetrations, whether the decking needs replacement, and the shingle line you choose. We give you a written line-item estimate after the inspection rather than a phone quote.
Do you subcontract work in South Orange?
No. Every crew on a South Orange job is an All Elite crew. The same foreman who starts your roof finishes it, and the person who sold you the job is reachable while it is happening.
Will you shingle over my existing roof?
No. We tear off to the decking on every job. A second layer of shingles hides deck damage, adds dead weight, traps heat, and voids most manufacturer warranties. In Essex County we see the results of layered roofs regularly, and they are never cheaper in the end.
How fast can you get to South Orange in an emergency?
We run 24/7 emergency service from Hackensack. For an active leak or storm damage, call (551) 335-9235 and we will get a tarp on the roof to stop the water before we talk about the permanent repair.
