|MY CREW AND I SAVE OLD METAL ROOFS; Contact us.
New Jersey tin roofing projects range from the truly historic sites to charming village settings to the grandeur of our Nation's first seaside resort, Cape May located on the southern point of this state. For anyone who wants to experiment with color schemes for your home, this town is worth a visit.
Our first project in Cape May added rich memories for my crew chief and my
mother:
My southern crew chief Lester had traveled widely during his 20 plus year
career, but never to a site like Cape May. First, instead of driving to the
cape, he took the ferry, a logical route due to his family's location in North
Carolina. On the first crossing, all crew members hung over the railing taking
in their first open water experience. By the third trip, they were snoozing in
the truck. Second, access to the roof was through a window of a room--a room
with an ocean view. The owner of the inn suggested that Lester take over the
room. This project became one of Lester's favorite projects.
Mother arrived at the Philly airport one morning. She was okay with the plan
to visit the tin roofing work-in-progress. As this contractor reviewed the
latest news on the project, my maternal octogenarian disappeared down one of the
picturesque streets. Since that first visit, she has revisited this seaside gem
five times.
Most recently, the Wanamaker legacy called "Seaside Home" employed us to preserve their roof. As background, the Victorian-age Mrs. Wanamaker wanted to establish a "hotel" for widows and orphans. Today, a non-denominational board runs the hotel.
