A. Brooks Construction Kanga Roof Volunteers to Preserve a Jersey Shore Landmark

Posted: Thursday, November 28, 2019 at 8:45 AM CST

Bristol, PA -- (SBWire) -- 11/28/2019 --For nearly 110 years, the Judge's Shack, nestled in the dunes of the 10-mile-long Island Beach State Park, stood as a historical and aesthetic landmark, representative of a time before the Jersey Shore became a highly-developed holiday destination. It is of the last remaining examples of vernacular architecture in not just New Jersey, but the entire East Coast. Unfortunately, after many years of enduring storms, hurricanes, and elemental damage, the Judge's Shack was at risk of disappearing from the coast entirely. Fortunately, A. Brooks Construction Kanga Roof, the top commercial roof repair company serving Burlington County, NJ, stepped in to provide a brand new roof.

Much like countless other structures along New Jersey's shoreline after the 2012 ravages of Hurricane Sandy, the Judge's Shack was severely damaged. The dunes were all but swept away, the roof was caving-in and leaking, and the volunteers from the nonprofit organization, Friends of the Judge's Shack, were struggling to keep the structure preserved. In 2017, the Friends group worked with the Division of Parks and Forestry within the NJ Department of Environmental Protection to plant dune grass, put in snow fences, and maintain the property. Still, the structural integrity of the roof was putting the historic building, and the whole endeavor, in danger of collapse.

When the residential and commercial roof repair specialists in Mercer County, NJ, from A. Brooks Construction Kanga Roof got wind of this struggle to preserve the Judge's Shack, they jumped in to lend a hand. Their volunteers, including the company's fraternal owners, Abe and Alf Brooks, replaced the entire roof with a modern version of the original mineral surface roofing. The leaks were staunched, and the roofing was updated to ensure structural resilience.
