Toms River Roof Pros provides professional tile roofing in Toms River, NJ for residential and commercial properties across the Ocean County shore. This is the page where we argue against the product. Concrete and clay tile are rare in Ocean County, and on a house that has been lifted onto columns they are usually the wrong answer, for a reason that has almost nothing to do with roofing.
Tile is heavy. A concrete tile assembly runs several times the dead load of an asphalt shingle roof over the same area. On a conventional foundation that is a framing question. On a structure sitting on piles or columns that were designed and permitted for the load the house carried when it went up, it is a question for the engineer who stamped the elevation drawings.
So our first answer on tile is to get the structural review before you get the roofing quote. Nobody enjoys hearing that, and it is far cheaper to hear it now than after a deposit. If the elevation design does not show capacity for the added load, the conversation ends there, and no tile-against-shingle comparison anybody hands you is worth reading until that question has an answer in writing from somebody qualified to give one.
Where tile already exists, we service it rather than push a conversion. That means relaying loose field tile, replacing the underlayment when the underlayment is what actually failed, and re-bedding hip and ridge with a flexible adhesive instead of the mortar that cracked. Tile roofs nearly always leak because of the layer beneath them, and that layer has a much shorter life than the tile.
Broken tile is a walking problem more than a weather problem. Somebody serviced a satellite dish or a rooftop unit and put a boot where the tile had no support beneath it. We spread the load on foam pads and roof ladders, keep matching stock on the truck for the common profiles, and tell you honestly when a discontinued profile means a patch you will be able to see from the street.
If a client on the bay front wants the look and the house cannot carry the weight, we say so and offer alternatives rather than a compromise that fails. Stone-coated steel and some of the profiled aluminum systems get close at a fraction of the dead load. That is a real recommendation rather than a consolation, and it is one we make far more often than we sell tile.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — 316-grade stainless gutter hangers, hemmed aluminum drip edge over a self-adhered eave strip, pile-mounted downspout leaders, 26-gauge aluminum standing seam with concealed clips, ASTM D3161 Class F wind-rated laminates, granulated SBS cap sheet in a self-adhered two-ply system — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Toms River and nearby communities including Beachwood, South Toms River, Pine Beach, Ocean Gate.

Materials, equipment and how we do tile roofing
The difference between tile roofing that lasts and tile roofing that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with 316-grade stainless gutter hangers, hemmed aluminum drip edge over a self-adhered eave strip, pile-mounted downspout leaders, 26-gauge aluminum standing seam with concealed clips, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Toms River job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in the Ocean County shore means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
