A square-mile borough set off from Deptford in 1915. Roofing for steep older pitches, deep eaves and the occasional slate leftover.
Woodbury Heights became its own borough in 1915, carved out of Deptford Township, and a good share of its houses date from that first generation. That shows up on the roof: steeper pitches than anything built after the war, deep overhangs, dormers, and here and there original slate or cedar under a later asphalt cover. Postwar and later infill fills out the rest of the borough’s mile and a quarter, much of it near Glen Lake and Academy Avenue.
Steep work is slower work and we price it honestly rather than discovering it on the day. Where slate or cedar sits under asphalt, tear-off and deck repair are a real part of the job. Permits for replacement come from the Borough of Woodbury Heights construction office under the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code.

Pre-war roofs in the borough often carry slate or cedar under the shingle you can see, which changes tear-off, deck work and the weight the framing carries.
Original slate or cedar hidden under asphalt changes tear-off and deck repair entirely.
Roof jacks, staging and slower work on pitches that are too steep to walk.
Dormer cheeks, deep overhangs and multiple valleys are where these roofs leak.
Woodbury Heights issues and inspects the roof permit through its own construction office.
Same office, same crews, a short drive away.
From the Borough of Woodbury Heights. It has been a separate municipality since 1915 with its own construction office, and the City of Woodbury next door has no authority over your address. We file there under the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code.
We would rather not. Covering slate again adds weight, buries flashing, and makes future leaks nearly impossible to trace. Tear-off lets us see the sheathing, which on a house this age usually needs some attention, and it gives you a roof that can be warrantied.
Yes, and it should. Steep pitches need roof jacks and staging, the crew moves slower, and the tear-off cannot be dropped the easy way. It is a labor difference, not a material one, and we put it in the quote up front rather than adding it later.
Heat escaping the attic melts snow up the slope, the meltwater runs down to the cold overhang, and it refreezes there. Deep pre-war eaves make that worse. Better attic intake and ridge venting plus ice-and-water underlayment at the eaves is the durable fix.
