Devi from Bayonne, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since March of 2026. The roof was finished on 14 April: two layers of old shingle stripped to the sheathing and hauled away, then 2,300 square feet of new composition shingle in charcoal with a 50-year warranty. Two layers coming off is the case the tear-off rule exists for – the second was hiding whatever the first had been covering, and the deck underneath is not visible until both are gone. Bayonne sits on the peninsula between Newark Bay and the Kill Van Kull, about as far north as this list reaches, and a roof there takes weather off the water from two directions.

Roofing questions from Bayonne homeowners
What happens to my solar panels when I replace the roof?
The array usually must be professionally removed before roofing and reinstalled afterward. The solar contractor or qualified removal-and-replacement team should protect wiring, attachments, grounding, flashing, system documentation, and commissioning.
What happens if rotten plywood is found during a roof replacement?
Damaged or deteriorated roof sheathing should be replaced so the new roofing system has a solid fastening surface.
How do snow loads affect roofing in Bayonne, NJ?
Typical snow is accounted for in building design, but heavy wet snow can expose weak framing, poor drainage, and vulnerable low-slope areas. Structural concerns, unusual deflection, or repeated ice buildup should be evaluated rather than addressed only with new shingles.
