Bay Roofing & Construction
Bay Roofing is a full-service, fully-insured roofing company, serving homeowners in both northern and central New Jersey for all of their roofing needs. With over 40 years of experience, we have worked on a wide variety of roof types, from the asphalt shingles which are very popular today to historic roofing materials such as slate and copper.

Our focus is on long-lasting quality, and our aim is to provide our customers with a seamless experience and high-performance roof, done right. Customer satisfaction is very important to us! Check out what our customers are saying on Google. Obvious Leak / Water Spots - Look for dark stains on the ceiling or in the attic for signs that water is entering the house.

Be observant during storms. Dark Spots / Streaks - These are typically signs of moss, mold or algae, which damage your roof over time. When you start noticing the dark growth first appear, it can be removed with a roof cleaning. But if it's been there for a while, it's good to have the roof's condition evaluated.
Services
Bay Roofing and Construction was started in 1981 by Dave and Steve, who were both installing roofs at the time. With their focus on providing high-end service and reliable workmanship, the company's reputation grew as did the company. Bay Roofing now employs several crews, including a team of expert craftsmen who specialize in the historic, detailed work commonly seen on New Jersey's beautiful collection of old homes.
Whether you need a repair or whole new roof let us know how we can help. With 120 years of combined experience among our senior staff, our expertise shows. We have consistently been voted "Best Roofer" by our customers in Essex County's annual Best of Essex contest year after year. When you contact us, we will send one of our knowledgable estimators to inspect your roof and meet with you to discuss your needs.
One of New Jersey's best assets is its fine collection of historic homes. In addition to the more modern asphalt shingles, you can find a variety of other roof materials like slate, tile and wood. You also see gorgeous copper roofing, gutters and flashing. Given our locational advantage, Bay Roofing has had the privilege of working on many of these gems, and has become a leader in historic restoration work, setting us apart from other roofers.
Bay Roofing is more than just roofs. Gutters are an essential part of your roofing system, helping collect water and direct it away from your home to prevent damage to your foundation, soffits, fascia and/or landscaping. We offer gutter replacements, installations and cleaning. Over time, gutters can become damaged or clogged.

Now this is how you run a business!

Great work all around. From the workers, to the person that made the appointment, to the business owner. We called several people to give us quote. They mostly came out around the same price. So we went with Bay because they had the best reputation and answered my questions in a helpful and respectful way.

Excellent, professional, quality work all around. I had a couple things I wanted done after the work was finished and they were happy to come back and fix some spots.

The work was all done while I was at work, with all communication done either by email

Our entire roof was replaced by Bay in early December 2021. Very satisfied with the completed work. The job was done exactly as quoted & the office staff did an excellent job! Good job start to finish! Especially want to thank Dave Sr., Dave Jr. and Michelle for taking such good care of us.

Impressive expertise and quality of work on a relatively complex (though small) repair for a historic Tudor slate roof. Did not over-sell, efficiently executed just what was required, to a high quality standard. 10-year guarantee of workmanship, for a slate roof project. Also very good strategy advice for maintaining this 90 year old slate roof which can still serve for many years. We worked with Jay, the company’s slate roofing team leader, and had a great experience all around. For slate roof expertise, highly recommend!

Couldn’t be happier with Bay Roofing! They were a pleasure to deal with, on the phone and in person. They explained everything, kept in touch about scheduling, and were prompt, polite, and efficient. We’ve had heavy rain since the installation and all is well with the new roof. Two thumbs up!

Upon researching roofing companies, I would seek out direct recommendations as I would any contractor or service repair company. Bay Roofing & Construction came highly recommended to me by three independent sources, all of which were extremely credible and share the same values: Quality service, attentiveness, neatness , reliability, integrity, professionalism, responsiveness, and true customer focus. I can’t say enough about the hard working crew that did our roof. Dave Jr. manager, was extremely helpful, knowledgeable and personable, a real pleasure to deal with. He visited the job site throughout

Dave, Jr. was just great. He inspected the damage and didn't settle for the easy solution. Upon further review he discovered that the issue resulted from damage in a place I never would have suspected. Dave not only found the source but immediately sealed the breech where water was getting in and damaging my property. At all times he was respectful and professional. What a great ambassador for his company. Bay Roofing will be my goto company.

Bay Roofing recently installed a new roof for us. Bill (their sales person) and Steve (their co-owner) were both being very professional. They know their work and their business well. The installation team did a great job at installing the new roof - they were very efficient and they cleaned up everything nicely. Our new roof looks beautiful. Their price is reasonable as well. Steve spent additional time addressing the issues we saw and perfecting their work - big thank to him. We were recommended to them by our neighbors who hired them twice in the past for new roofs, with a time span of over

Dave Jr. was so kind and professional! He saw a spot on my roof that needed immediate attention and he fixed it. There are other things we will have to fix, waiting fir that estimate. But I feel confident that they do great work and are good people. I love supporting family owned businesses that actually care about their customers!

My wife and I have been repeat customers for years, and even part of their list of referrals ,which we gave a couple times to prospective clients of theirs. We would have written similar glowing reviews except that, as of late, they have stopped answering our calls after they came to our house but never gave us an estimate for a couple of regular repairs. I guess it is more interesting for them to replace roofs than to repair them. Maybe good for them, but in the end, a simple phone call would have gone a long way. We are pretty disappointed.and give them 2 stars out of consideration for the past

It took me awhile to pick the right roofing company. I am so happy I went with Bay roofing. Their craftsmanship is second to none. Father and Son were both present during the installation of my new roof which is very rare to find. They went above and beyond to make sure I was happy with the selection of products needed for the job, during the job and even after. I went with timberline American harvest shingles and it looks amazing!!!!! Thank you again Bay Roofing.

Unfortunately, we had to contact Bay Roofing 3 times before someone finally came to our home. He looked over our roof and said he would give us a written estimate......one month+ and we haven't heard back. We reached out again today and we're told someone would call us back this afternoon. Well once again no one called as promised. Lack of Reliability gets Bay Roofing 1 star, and that's for someone answering the phone. Now we are left with a leak that has damaged the ceiling in our home.

Unreliable service. I called and they stated someone would be out to quote my roof repairs last week, no one showed. They said someone will be out Monday/Tuesday and AGAIN no one showed. Customer service is horrible and do not recommend. Find a company who cares.

Replacing our roof was an undertaking that we took seriously. After all this is a decision that sticks with you for 30 years. We received five estimates as we were looking for someone that could not only do an excellent job, but someone we could trust. In the end, the decision to go with Bay Roofing was absolutely the right one. Working with the entire team was seamless. They completed the job in two days and left our property spotless. We highly recommend them for all of your roofing needs.

We just had our roof done by Bay Roofing. They went above and beyond our expectations and we would Highly recommend them without any hesitation. I am baffled by some of these negative reviews because this company was fantastic and they communicated with us every step of the way.

It's challenging to find a trustworthy and skilled roofing company, but Bay Roofing was all that and more for us! After we did an extensive search, our neighbor highly recommended them and are we glad he did!
They were on time, friendly, professional and actually came in under their quote (don't expect that to be standard, but it speaks to their honesty!). Bay wasn't the cheapest option, but you know the old saying about it being less expensive in the end to do the job the RIGHT way!
They have the high level of expertise we were hoping for and we are very happy with their work

Totally unprofessional. DO NOT HIRE! They gave me an estimate to repair about 20 slate roofing tiles... $1200.... I wasn't home when they came, but my security system videoed the crew ... they were only at the house for an hour and only replaced about three slate tiles with maybe a piece of copper flashing. I had also taken numerous pictures of both before "repair " and after which confirmed the video. Of course I will never pay the bill. Total scams. Jay felt bad but did nothing. Lol. Terrible

I had called a few places for a full roof replacement and they were by far the most responsive, reasonably priced and honest. I was also concerned about rot under the shingles and even pushed for replacement of the plywood, and while they gave me two separate estimates so i knew what how much more expensive it would be, they consistently suggested it was unlikely to be necessary given what they could see. In the end they were correct and saved me many thousands of dollars. They dealt with difficult neighbors (Jersey City), roof looks great, was done in a very reasonable amount of time and they

Buyer Beware. I called Bay Roofing Fairfield NJ to help repair soffits on my home. The salesman ( brother) was overly friendly, but I had heard they were local and had a good reputation ( I thought) so I hired them to fix my soffits.. They also recommended other work which I had them do .. but the primary focus was the soffits. I also explained that I would consider aluminum style soffits if they could not repair or fix the wooden ones that were on my older home. To make a long story short. They came back twice (I had to call them) .. ..because the original job was done poorly. The job was still

Had a leaky roof spot so I called a few contractors for estimates. What I got was either "You have to replace the whole roof section" or the came and never called back. Despite all their ads for repairs, seems most dont want to be bothered unless you spend thousands.

Steve from Bay came out and gave me an estimate. it was a bit high to be honest, but he was clear. "If I do it, I own it" so he described exactly what he had to do in detail. l also needed a spot over a door that needed to be fixed. Got a few more estimates and they were cheaper but "no guarantee".
