Flat Roofing in Hoboken, NJ
Brownstones, row houses, condo conversions: almost all flat roofs. We do EPDM and modified bitumen work weekly here, including storm response.
Flat Roofing in Hoboken, done right.
Hoboken is one square mile of flat roofs. The brownstones from the 1880s-1920s have layered, patched flat-roof construction that needs full replacement every 20-25 years. The newer condo conversions and high-rises use modern EPDM or TPO. Everything in between is some combination of patches, recoats, and partial replacements that someone has been deferring for years.
When a nor'easter comes through, the work here is storm tarping and insurance documentation. Hoboken's combination of flat roofs, salt air, and frequent severe weather events means roofs fail more often here than almost anywhere else in our service area, including Jersey City next door.
Hoboken is part of our Hudson County roofing service area. We are a New Jersey roofing contractor headquartered in Englewood.

Storm damage from nor'easters
Hoboken sits in the direct path of Atlantic storms. We respond same-day for tarping and full assessment work.
Seam splits on old modified-bitumen and EPDM
Aging flat-roof seams open up first. Section repair extends life; full replacement resets the clock.
Salt-corroded flashing and parapet caps
Hudson salt air eats metal hardware. We specify marine-grade or copper where budget allows; plan for shorter service life otherwise.
Failed roof drains causing interior flooding
Clogged or broken drains push water onto interior ceilings. We rebuild drain assemblies during major roof work.
Parapet wall deterioration
Brick parapets in older brownstones crack and let water into the wall structure. Repair before re-roofing is critical.

Almost every Hoboken leak comes through a flat roof, and the usual suspects are the same from Washington Street to the waterfront: seams that have opened on aging EPDM or modified bitumen, flashing that has pulled away at the parapet walls, and roof drains clogged or broken so that water stands until it finds a way in. Salt air corrodes the metal caps on brownstone parapets, and nor'easters drive rain straight at them. Roof leak repair on a Hoboken roof means checking the whole drainage path, not just the spot above the stain.
Roof repair in Hoboken
Roof repair in Hoboken buys real time on a sound roof: seams re-sealed, parapet flashing rebuilt, drains cleared and reset, and punctures patched before water reaches the insulation. When a brownstone roof is layered with decades of patches, or the insulation underneath is already wet, repairs stop holding and a full tear-off is the honest answer. We coordinate with condo boards and neighbors when roof access is shared. For condo and mixed-use buildings, see commercial roofing in Hoboken.

Reviews from the Hoboken area.
After the nor'easter we had eight inches of water in the attic. They had a tarp up within four hours and worked directly with my insurance.
