Greentree’s homes date to the 1970s and 80s, so most are on their second roof by now. What the first replacement left behind is what matters.
Greentree sits in the eastern half of Cherry Hill Township along Greentree Road, built out largely through the 1970s and 80s with colonials, bi-levels and townhouse groups. Almost every one of those houses has been re-roofed at least once. That first replacement is now twenty or more years old itself, and what got skipped then is what we find now.
Typically it is flashing reused instead of replaced, a ridge vent cut without opening the soffits, or pipe boots left in place until the rubber cracked. We replace metal rather than reseal it, correct the ventilation, and put ice-and-water membrane where the last crew used felt. The permit comes from the Cherry Hill Township construction office under the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code.

Whatever the previous crew reused instead of replacing is what fails now, and that is almost always metal flashing and rubber pipe boots.
Old step and chimney flashing put back under new shingles rarely lasts a second time.
Rubber collars on vent pipes split after fifteen years and leak without warning.
Ridge vents added at the last replacement often had no soffit intake opened.
Greentree is in Cherry Hill Township, whose construction office issues the roofing permit.
Same office, same crews, a short drive away.
Usually the parts that were not replaced. Shingles from that era often still have life in them, but the flashing, pipe boots and valley metal reused at the time are past it. An inspection separates a failing shingle field from failing details, and the second is often a repair.
Almost never on a full replacement. Step flashing, valley metal and pipe boots are cheap relative to the labor already on site, and reusing them is the most common reason a 20-year roof leaks at fifteen. New metal goes in as standard on our replacements.
No. Greentree is a section of Cherry Hill Township, so roofing permits are issued by the Cherry Hill Township construction office under the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code. We file it, post the card and meet the inspector at the final so the file closes properly.
More than it looks like from the driveway. Hail here tends to bruise the shingle mat and knock granules loose rather than punch holes, and the bald spots show up a year or two later. After a hail or high-wind event a documented inspection is worth having for your insurer.
