Services

Five services. One trusted crew.

Whether you need a new roof, a chimney rebuild, or a full backyard transformation, you'll work with the same Alba Pro foreman from quote to final walkthrough.

How a job runs

The same five steps on every project.

We are a self-performing contractor, which in plain terms means the people who price your job are the people who show up to do it. No lead brokers, no subcontracted crews you have never met, and no salesman disappearing after the deposit clears.

1. Inspection, on the roof or in the crawlspace

A foreman walks the property, gets on the roof where it is safe to, photographs what he finds, and checks the details that actually fail in North Jersey: valley metal, step flashing at dormer walls, chimney counterflashing, and the first three feet above the eave where ice dams back water up.

2. A written scope, itemized

You get a line-item scope on paper: tear-off layers, decking replacement allowance, underlayment type, ice-and-water coverage, ventilation, flashing, and disposal. If a permit is required for your town, that is listed with the fee, not buried in a lump sum.

3. Permits and scheduling

We file with your building department and schedule around the inspection calendar so a rough or final inspection never strands your house mid-job. Most single-family roofs are a one- to two-day install; chimneys and masonry run longer because mortar and flue work have cure times.

4. Install with the property protected

Plywood over shrubs and A/C condensers, tarps on the ground, magnetic sweeps for nails at the end of each day, and a dumpster placed where your town allows it. Crews start at 7am so the noisiest work is finished before afternoon.

5. Walkthrough, then the paperwork you need later

A foreman walks the finished job with you, then you receive the manufacturer warranty registration, our workmanship warranty, the closed permit, and the photo set. That packet is what an insurance adjuster or a future buyer's home inspector will ask for.

Not sure what you need

What the symptom usually means.

Homeowners rarely call asking for a specific trade — they call about a stain, a smell, or a sagging board. Here is how those usually sort out.

Brown ring on a bedroom ceiling

Nine times out of ten this is flashing or an ice dam, not the field of the shingles. If the stain sits below a chimney, a bathroom vent, or a wall that meets the roof, the leak is at that transition. That is a flashing repair, not a full replacement — and any honest roofer will tell you which one you are looking at.

Smoke smell in the house or a draft from the fireplace

Usually a deteriorated clay liner, a missing chimney cap letting rain into the flue, or a crown that has cracked and is shedding water into the brick. We scope the flue before quoting so you are not paying for a rebuild when a stainless liner solves it.

Deck boards feel spongy near the house

That is the ledger area, the most common failure point on New Jersey decks built before modern flashing requirements. Spongy boards there often mean the ledger flashing failed and the rim joist behind it is wet. It is a structural fix, and it needs a permit.

Water dumping over the gutter edge in heavy rain

Either the gutter is undersized for the roof area feeding it, the pitch is wrong, or the downspout is clogged at the elbow. Bergen and Passaic County storms now regularly drop two inches an hour, which overwhelms old 5-inch K-style gutters on a big roof.

Mortar joints you can scratch out with a key

Failed mortar on a chimney, stoop, or retaining wall. It needs repointing before freeze-thaw cycles pull the units apart, because rebuilding costs several times what repointing does.

An insurance adjuster is coming after a storm

Get a contractor on the roof before the adjuster, with dated photographs. Hail bruising and wind creasing are easy to miss from the ground and are the two things adjusters most often underpay.
