Lower than most — more than half the roofers in New Jersey have no one or two-star ratings at all. A higher share is a reason to read the critical reviews below, not a verdict.
The critical reviews
The one and two-star reviews, first. These are what a star average hides, and they are the reason this page exists.
We hold no one or two-star review text for Carter & Sons Roofing. That is not the same as there being none — it means our capture did not reach any. The rating breakdown above is Google’s own count and is the number to go on.

The roofing team was great to work with. Their price was fair, and they helped us through the insurance part after a storm came through Fords. Even though they were clearly busy with other roof repairs in the area, they finished our roofing job sooner than expected, and we really appreciated that. Throughout the project, they checked in with us several times and asked if we had noticed any water leaks or signs of roof damage inside the house. We did not have any leaks, but they made it clear that if anything changed, they would come back quickly to take care of it. That gave us a lot of peace of mind. The crew did solid, professional roofing work, stayed organized, and cleaned up all the debris and materials when the job was complete. The whole process felt smooth from start to finish, and the communication was strong the entire time. I would gladly use this roofer again if we ever need roofing services in the future because they did an excellent job.

After my roof took a lot of damage from strong storms and high winds, many roofing crews came through the area offering free estimates for a full replacement. After comparing several bids and talking with a few companies that did not seem very trustworthy, we chose Carter & Sons Roofing for the job. jacob was easy to reach, very professional, and took time to explain the roofing process, materials, and what to expect with the insurance claim. They really helped us work through the paperwork and pushed for the full roof replacement our home clearly needed. The crew showed up on time, kept the property clean, and completed the tear-off and installation faster than we expected without cutting corners. benjamin made sure the shingles, flashing, and cleanup were all handled the right way, and clinton followed up to confirm everything looked good after the project was done. The new roof looks strong, neat, and well installed, and we feel much better knowing our home is protected from heavy rain, wind, and rough weather. i would definitely recommend them to anyone needing roof repair or a full roof replacement, and we are very happy with the overall service and workmanship.

Our roof and gutter replacement went smoothly from beginning to end with Carter & Sons Roofing. Clinton walked us through each step in clear, simple terms and was easy to reach whenever we had questions. We also appreciated the regular email updates, which made it easy to know what stage the roofing project was in at all times. The crew was professional, friendly, and took time to explain the roofing work they were doing and why certain repairs and materials were needed. They also documented the progress with plenty of photos, which gave us extra confidence in the quality of the installation. That added detail was very helpful and showed real care for the job. Cleanup was excellent as well. Even with windy conditions, the team made sure loose debris was tracked down and removed. They carefully cleaned the yard and the area beyond the back fence, and they used a magnetic tool to pick up nails and metal pieces after the work was done. Clinton also checked everything again during the final roof inspection. We are extremely pleased with the whole experience and very happy with the finished result.

The roofing crew replaced our barn roof and did a great job from start to finish. During the first inspection, Jacob was honest, clear, and helpful with his roofing advice and recommendations. Communication throughout the roof project was …

Coordinating a full roof replacement on a newly purchased house in Fords while living out of state was not easy, but the whole process went very smoothly. i reached out about the reroofing project and spoke with zachary, who said he would inspect the home and share an honest opinion on the condition of the shingles and overall roofing system. Just like he promised, he arrived on time, looked everything over carefully, and recommended replacing the entire roof. We went over pricing, timing, materials, and the work schedule, and the estimate was fair. zachary explained the options clearly, including ventilation details and gutter protection, so we also chose to add gutter covers. He made the planning process simple and helped us feel comfortable making decisions from a distance. The crew handled the roofing job in a professional way, kept in close contact with updates, and moved the project along efficiently. the new roof and gutter covers were finished ahead of schedule, the cleanup was solid, and the workmanship looked great. Communication was steady from start to finish, which really mattered since we were managing the project remotely. Great work overall, and i would highly recommend this roofing team for reroofing, gutters, and related exterior work.

When it comes to hiring a roofing company, great customer service matters most to me. Once I find a crew that treats people right, explains the roofing process clearly, and stands behind their work, I stay loyal. From the first call to the …

Carter & Sons Roofing did an excellent job on our roof from start to finish. Clinton handled everything well from the first call to the final details, and he made the roofing process easy to follow and simple to understand. Like most roofing projects, there were a few normal delays with permits and inspections, but he and the crew kept us updated on the timeline and explained what was happening at each step. Every text and phone call was returned quickly and professionally. The tear-off crew was outstanding. They arrived early, worked hard, and stayed a little later to make sure the roof deck and our home were protected until the new shingles were installed. We were especially glad that there were no leaks at any point during the job. The shingle crew was just as solid and did quality work. Our new roof looks great, with straight clean lines and a much better finished appearance than before. The crews also did a thorough cleanup around the property before leaving. We highly recommend the whole team for roofing work in Fords.

Carter & Sons Roofing is the best roofing company I have worked with through all of my home improvement projects. The whole team was professional, polite, and very knowledgeable about roofing materials, installation, ventilation, and the services they provide. They explained the process clearly, kept the job site organized, and made sure every part of the roof work was done right. I would not choose any other roofer after this experience because they have truly earned my trust and loyalty. They set a high standard for workmanship, service, and attention to detail. I am very happy with my beautiful, energy efficient, durable new roof, and it has made a real difference in the look and protection of my home in Fords.

If you need roof repair at a fair price and want solid workmanship, this roofing company is a great choice. I recently bought my first home and found the roof was in rough shape, with a small leak caused by a nail backing out. I got estimates from three different roofing contractors, and this company came in with the best price while still offering high-quality materials and dependable roofing service. During the whole project, Zachary, who managed the job, kept me updated with calls, texts, and emails, and made sure the repair work was handled the way I preferred. The crew was professional, easy to work with, and clearly knew their way around shingles, flashing, and leak repair. They explained the problem well, completed the work carefully, and made the process much less stressful for a first-time homeowner. After the roof work was finished, Zachary followed up to make sure everything looked good and that the leak issue was fully taken care of. He even left a few extra shingles for future use, which was a thoughtful touch. I highly recommend them for any roofing needs, especially if you want honest pricing, good communication, and quality roof repair done right.
