Montclair, NJ Roofing Contractor — Replacement, Repair & Storm Damage
Montclair’s housing is Essex County’s showcase: Victorians and Queen Annes near the village, big colonials and Tudors from Upper Montclair through Watchung Plaza, and historic streets where the architecture is the point. Roofing here is half craft, half respect for the house — and with our Wayne office 20 minutes away, Montclair has become one of our favorite towns to work in. We serve it as part of our Essex County service area.
What Montclair Roofs Need
- Complex, steep, original rooflines. Turrets, dormers, intersecting gables, long valleys — every transition is a potential leak and a place where flashing craftsmanship matters more than shingle brand.
- Architectural shingle matching. GAF’s designer and Timberline lines in slate-look and wood-look profiles suit Montclair’s historic streetscapes. We bring samples; the neighbors will ask who did your roof.
- First Mountain weather exposure. Homes up the hill toward Upper Montclair catch wind the valley doesn’t — we spec maximum wind-warranty installation there.
- Honesty about slate and tile: we install and repair asphalt shingle systems. If your slate roof needs a slate specialist, we’ll tell you straight.
Roof Replacement Cost in Montclair
Montclair’s larger and more complex homes put most replacements at $12,000–$24,000+. Exact written quote from a free drone inspection; financing including 2-years-no-interest.
Storm Damage & Insurance Claims
Wind coming over First Mountain regularly damages Montclair’s exposed upper streets. Our near-decade of public adjusting experience means documentation your carrier acts on — and an honest “don’t file” when the damage won’t qualify.

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.
