Shore Defense: Coastal Roofing & Exterior Protection
Applegate & Son's Shore Defense package is a premium coastal construction solution engineered specifically for the harsh New Jersey shore environment. We combine high-performance materials with rigorous technical standards to ensure your home remains an impenetrable fortress against wind-driven rain and hurricane-force winds.
Coastal Construction Pillars
130-MPH Coastal Spec Baseline
- Enhanced Fastening: Six nails per shingle for maximum grip.
- Wind-Driven Rain Defense: Taped or sealed roof decks and starter strips at eaves and rakes.
- Corrosion-Proof Components: Copper, high-grade aluminum, or stainless fasteners and flashing.
High-Performance Composites

FORTIFIED Standard for ROI
We meet or exceed IBHS FORTIFIED Roof standards. These ultra-durable installations can lower wind and hazard insurance premiums, effectively helping the roof pay for itself over time.
The Waterproof Envelope
Roofs, siding, windows, and gutters handled as one integrated system. We control all roof-to-wall and wall-to-window transitions using heavy-gauge seamless aluminum gutters with high-frequency hangers.
Operational Professionalism
OSHA 30-trained leadership manages every site. We provide daily digital photo updates to keep homeowners informed, which is essential for shore properties and absentee owners.
