8 Roofing Companies in Kearny, New Jersey

We don’t yet have enough itemized residential roofing permits in Kearny to publish a reliable local cost range. Across New Jersey, the median filed residential roofing-permit amount is $11,000 - a real filed figure rather than a national estimate. As more Kearny permits come on record, we’ll show the local range here.

Of the 4 companies we track in Kearny, 2 have an active contractor license located in public records, 1 is a registered business entity, and 0 operate from a commercial rather than residential address. New Jersey issues roofing-contractor licensing at the state level, so an active state license is the baseline credential to confirm before hiring. A company not appearing with a license here isn’t proof it’s unlicensed - some jurisdictions don’t publish - so verify directly, and always confirm liability and workers’ comp insurance before work starts.

Roofing demand in Kearny is driven less by storms than by seasonal storms, humidity, and wide temperature swings. A balanced assembly - good underlayment, ventilation, and mid-to-high-wind-rated shingles - suits the mixed weather. Of the 4 companies we track, 1 hold a manufacturer certification for these systems.

1 of the 4 roofers we track in Kearny hold at least one manufacturer certification (GAF, Owens Corning, CertainTeed, TAMKO, IKO, Malarkey). The most common here is Owens Corning, held by 1 company - versus 23% certified across New Jersey. Certification means the manufacturer vetted the contractor and lets them back your roof with stronger, longer material-and-labor warranties. Not required to install a roof, but a real signal of training and standing.

Across the 4 companies we track in Kearny, the average rating is 4.9★, combining Google, BBB, and Yelp. 1 appears on more than one platform and 3 have owners who actively respond to reviews. Look for steady, recent, multi-source ratings over a handful of old five-star reviews on one site - any single platform can be cherry-picked.

Roofing is a high-fall-risk trade, so safety history matters. Of the 4 companies we track in Kearny, 1 has at least one federal OSHA violation on record in the past 10 years, and 3 have none. We show any recorded violation - citation, severity, and penalty - on each profile. A clean record isn’t a guarantee, but repeated serious violations are a real red flag.
