Roofing in Essex County, NJ
Essex County has some of New Jersey’s most varied older housing — Victorians and Tudors in Montclair, Glen Ridge, Maplewood and South Orange, post-war colonials and split-levels in Livingston and the Caldwells, and two- and three-family homes in Newark, East Orange and Irvington. Each needs a roof installed with care for its age and design.
Older homes, done right
Many Essex County homes have steep pitches, dormers, turrets and several layers of old shingles over original plank decking. We tear off to the deck, replace any rotted wood and hand-flash every wall, valley and dormer, so the new roof sits on a solid base and suits the house.
Hillsides and tree-lined streets
Homes along the Watchung ridges in West Orange, Verona, Cedar Grove and the Caldwells catch more wind, while mature trees across the county keep roofs shaded and damp. We use high-wind nailing and sealed ridge caps on exposed roofs and algae-resistant shingles where shade is heavy.
Local permits & codes
Every Essex County town handles roofing permits a little differently. We know the local requirements and take care of the paperwork for you.
