Roofing Contractor in East Orange, NJ — Replacement, Repair & Insurance Claims
Roofing Solutions Made Simple
East Orange, NJ Roofing Contractor for Older & Multi-Family Homes
East Orange has some of the most handsome pre-war housing in Essex County — and some of the oldest roofs we inspect. From the big colonials and Victorians around Elmwood and Doddtown to the two-family homes near Brick Church and Ampere, these houses were built to last a century, but their roofs weren’t. We serve all of East Orange from our Wayne office, about 20 minutes up the Garden State Parkway.
What East Orange Roofs Need
- Steep pitches and complex rooflines. East Orange’s early-1900s homes have steep gables, dormers, and valleys. These shed water beautifully when the shingles are sound, but every valley and dormer is a leak point when they age. Our drone inspection covers every face of the roof without anyone climbing on old slates or brittle shingles.
- Original plank decking. Century-old homes here have plank decks that often need partial replacement during a tear-off. We quote per-sheet pricing up front — no surprise extras halfway through the job.
- Two-family and tenant-occupied homes. A large share of our East Orange work is for landlords. Everything is documented in writing with photos, and tear-offs are scheduled to minimize tenant disruption — most are done in one day.
Roof Replacement Cost in East Orange
Most East Orange shingle replacements run $8,500–$16,000, with larger Victorians and homes needing decking work trending higher. We offer financing including a 2-years-no-interest plan, and our pricing is consistently well below the big TV-advertised companies — our Google reviews say it outright.
Storm Damage and Insurance Claims
Wind storms crossing the Oranges lift shingle tabs and strip ridge caps — damage that’s invisible from the sidewalk and obvious from a drone. Before you file anything with your insurance carrier, have us document the roof. With almost a decade of public adjusting experience, we know exactly what carriers approve, and we’ll tell you honestly if a claim isn’t worth filing.

Rafael from Simple Roofing was my primary point of contact. As a first-time home-buyer, my insurance required a new roof to maintain coverage, and Rafael guided me through the entire process. He listened to all my concerns, answered every … More question, and was available 24/7 throughout the project.
He also provided examples of previous work and clients, which gave me confidence in his team’s abilities. Their pricing was very reasonable compared to other companies.
I got quotes from three companies: Simple Roofing, Company B, and Company C. Company B quoted almost double, and Company C insisted on a metal roof.
I explained, FOR 3 HOURS, that a metal roof was not in my budget, and Company C then quoted me 3x the price for a regular shingle roof. Both Company B and C were suggesting financing these 2x and 3x priced roofing projects over 15–25 years, which I thought was insane—financing a project over such a long period and paying interest the whole time. Going with Simple Roofing ended up being a no-brainer: I got a fair price that I could finance over a much smaller time period.
Rafael carefully reviewed the roof, pointing out areas of concern and suggesting improvements such as better gutter routing for efficiency. Scheduling was easy, and the team completed the work in a single day.
Minor points to note: I did find a few nails in my driveway and lawn after the job was completed. To be fair: his team did collect about 99% of the nails and debris. It’s important to do your own scan afterward so you don’t accidentally drive over nails with your car or run over them with a lawn mower. That said, this is something a homeowner should generally expect to do after any roofing project, so it’s not a big deal.
Another small disappointment was that I did not get the option to keep any extra materials that I paid for. I’m not sure if there were any leftover materials or if the estimates were for exact amounts, but if there were any extras, they were taken by the crew. On the positive side, Rafael provided $100 worth of plywood at no extra charge for roof deck replacements, which I did need, so the final cost did not exceed the original estimate. I would assume the extra roof decking supplies were included in the estimate so it wasn't technically free, but he mentioned that if more roof decking was needed, that it would affect the final cost.
Rafael also worked closely with me and my financing team to ensure the roof could be financed, guiding me through every step.
Your mileage may vary, but from my experience, the process from price quoting to scheduling, talking with financing, and completing the job felt really quick. From start to finish, it was completed much faster than I anticipated.
Overall, I highly recommend Simple Roofing. They are trustworthy, local to the Northern NJ area, and professional. My new roof looks pristine, and their work exceeded my expectations. I would recommend them to anyone, whether for a small repair or a full roof replacement. -
Rafael is such a nice and polite and understanding person. His quality with Customer service is awesome. He sat down and explain to myself and my husband from top to finish and what I love about this company is the way Raphael explained … More everything they first of all took pictures with the drone of the condition of the roof sit down and explain it to us step-by-step step-by-step. Their workers were amazing when they were finished in two days you would never thought from looking down from the ground of all the work that they did by the time they finished everything was spotless. You will never thought that they were there until you took a look up and seeing such an amazing job that they did on the roof. I recommend this company to anyone who needs their roof replaced outstanding. They only allow me to give five stars if I could, I will give 100 stars.

I’m super happy with the result and no complains from my tenant at all after the project was completed. They kept their words by removed the dumpster and swept clean the property. There are so many companies out there that can do the roofing project but I decided to choose Simple Roofing because this is the company that care about their customers and keep their customers happy throughout the project plus they have 5 stars rating for a reason which I cannot even describe enough to say how great they are.
