The bayshore corner of Burlington County, where Route 9 meets the Parkway. Salt air and open-water wind set the spec on a New Gretna roof.
New Gretna is the main settlement of Bass River Township, at the southeastern tip of Burlington County where the Bass River joins the Mullica and Great Bay opens beyond it. Route 9 and the Garden State Parkway come in together and split at Exit 50. The township holds fewer than six hundred housing units in all: bayshore cottages, frame houses from the boatbuilding years, ranches, and newer builds on large Pinelands lots.
Exposure decides the spec out here. We set the nailing pattern and starter courses for open-water wind, bed the drip edge, and pay close attention to ridge cap and rake edge because those lift first. Permits go through the Bass River Township construction office under the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code, never through the county.

Same office, same crews, a short drive away.
Whole roofs rarely, individual shingles often. What lifts first is ridge cap, the starter course at the eave, and the shingles along the windward rake, because those edges are where a gust can get underneath. Correct nailing, a real starter strip and a bedded drip edge hold far better than the minimum.
Bass River Township. New Gretna is a community inside the township rather than a municipality, so the Bass River Township construction office reviews the application and inspects the finished roof under the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code. We file it and meet the inspector, so you are not chasing paperwork.
It does, because Great Bay is tidal and the air carries salt well inland. Plain steel fasteners and cheap vent flanges rust years earlier here than they do twenty miles north. We specify corrosion-resistant metal at the flashings, vents and drip edge for houses in this part of the township.
