Ship Bottom is the first town you hit off the causeway and the closest LBI borough to our Manahawkin shop. We are on your roof in minutes, not hours.
Ship Bottom is where the Route 72 causeway lands on Long Beach Island. It is a compact borough, roughly a mile long, running from the bay to the ocean with Long Beach Boulevard cutting through the middle. Because it is the island's front door, Ship Bottom has a dense mix of year-round residents, summer rentals, and small businesses along the Boulevard, all packed onto tight lots.
The housing here is classic LBI. Mid-century Cape Cods and ranches on slab or crawlspace, many of which were raised after Superstorm Sandy. A growing number of new elevated homes with multiple roof planes and rooftop decks. Duplexes and small multi-family buildings on the commercial corridor. Roofing these homes means working on narrow lots with neighbors a few feet away, planning material delivery around one-way streets, and building for wind and salt that never lets up.
Dam Good Roofing is the closest roofer on the mainland to Ship Bottom. Our shop is about 15 minutes away, which means quick estimates, fast turnaround on storm evaluations and easy scheduling. We install complete ocean-rated roofing systems and we keep the site tight and clean, because in Ship Bottom your neighbor's driveway is also basically your driveway.
Ship Bottom is about 15 minutes from our Manahawkin shop, straight over the Route 72 causeway.
Every town in Ocean County throws something different at a roof. Here is what we plan for in Ship Bottom.
Most Ship Bottom lots leave only a few feet between homes. We use careful tarping, controlled tear-off and compact debris handling so nothing lands in your neighbor's yard or on their car.
Every Ship Bottom roof gets weather from both sides. We use six-nail fastening, high-wind starter and ridge products and corrosion-resistant metal on the entire island, no exceptions.
New elevated homes often have flat sections under decks and multiple pitched planes. We coordinate low-slope membrane transitions with the shingle or metal system so there is no weak seam.
Ship Bottom is busy from June through September. We schedule LBI work heavily in the off season and plan material drops early in the day when we do work in summer.

Faster than any other LBI town. Ship Bottom is directly across the causeway from Manahawkin, so we can often be there the same day for a storm evaluation or within a couple of days for a scheduled estimate.
Yes. Ship Bottom Borough requires a construction permit for full roof replacement. We file it, pay the fee and schedule the inspection as part of the job.
If the shingles are more than 15 to 20 years old, almost certainly yes. Island roofs age faster than mainland roofs, and the elevation project usually did not touch the shingles or flashing. We will give you an honest read during a free evaluation.
Yes. We handle multi-unit residential buildings and can coordinate timing around tenant or rental schedules.
