An old sawmill and shipbuilding village on the Mullica River. Open water gives wind a clear run at these roofs.
Green Bank sits on the Mullica River in Washington Township, and it mattered once: a sawmill, a lumber port shipping downriver, and by the late 1800s a yard that built vessels right at the bank. The schoolhouse of 1919 now serves as the township hall. The houses are river-village stock, frame and modest, some of them built by the people who built the boats, on ground that slopes toward tidal water.
Open water changes the exposure. Wind comes up the river and reaches ridge caps, rake edges and gable ends directly, so those are the details we build for rather than the open field of the roof. Fasteners and flashing metal are chosen for damp tidal air. Permits go to the Washington Township construction office under the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code.

It lifts edges rather than whole slopes. Ridge cap goes first, then the starter course at the eave, then the shingles along the rake where a gust can get a grip underneath. Correct nailing, a proper starter strip and a bedded drip edge hold far better than minimum fastening does.
Washington Township, in Burlington County. New Jersey has several townships by that name, so confirm you are dealing with the Burlington County office. The Washington Township construction office reviews the roofing application and sends the inspector under the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code, and we handle the filing.
It changes what we check first. Plank decking, hand-cut rafters and previous re-roofs all affect how the new roof is fastened, and damp river air is harder on the framing near the eaves. We look in the attic before quoting rather than pricing from the square footage alone.
Yes. Plain steel fasteners and cheap vent flanges corrode noticeably faster in damp tidal air, and a rusted flange is a leak whatever the shingle is doing. We specify corrosion-resistant metal at the flashings, vents and drip edge on houses along the river.
