1. Home Improvement Loans
Personal home improvement loans are one of the fastest ways to pay for a roof replacement.

Pros:

• Fixed monthly payments
• No need to use home equity
• Fast approval—often within 1–2 days

Cons:

• Rates may be higher than secured loans
• Credit history affects interest rate

Most New Jersey homeowners qualify for loans between $5,000 and $25,000 depending on credit profile.

2. Home Equity Loans or HELOCs
If you’ve built equity in your property, you may qualify for a Home Equity Loan or Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC).

• A Home Equity Loan gives you a lump sum with fixed monthly payments.
• A HELOC works like a credit card—you borrow only what you need.

Pros:

• Lower interest rates
• Possible tax-deductible interest (ask your accountant)
• Flexible repayment terms

Cons:

• Your house serves as collateral
• Approval usually takes longer than personal loans

If your project costs more than $10,000, this can be a smart long-term option.

4. Insurance Coverage (When Available)
If roof damage comes from a storm, fallen tree, or another covered incident, your homeowner’s insurance may cover part or all of the replacement.

Steps to begin:

• Take photos and videos of the damage
• Contact your insurance carrier
• Schedule an inspection with Splendor Roofing and Chimney

We’ll assist with the claim and provide all repair documentation.

Note: Insurance won’t cover normal aging or expired roofs.

5. Government Loans & Grants
New Jersey provides certain programs to help qualifying homeowners, especially seniors or lower-income households:

• NJ Weatherization Assistance Program
• HUD Title I Home Improvement Loans
• Local municipal housing grants

Depending on income and property type, these may cover part or all of the roof expense. Check with your housing authority or ask us how to apply.
