Roof Repair in Summit, NJ
Tudor revivals on the hill, mid-century in the valleys, and the historic homes near Memorial Field. We work on all of them, and we have customers here we've roofed for twice.
Roof Repair in Summit, done right.
Summit's elevation gives it weather that's a little different from the rest of Union County. It's higher, more exposed to wind, and gets slightly more snow than Westfield or Cranford ten miles south. Roofs here see more weather events per year, and the ones that last are the ones that were detailed properly at the flashings and edges.
Architecturally, Summit is a mix. The hill section near Wallace Road has heavy Tudor and Colonial Revival housing: slate, tile, multiple roof planes, lots of dormer flashing. The flatter sections toward New Providence are more mid-century. Each requires a different approach, and we work on both.
Summit is about 45 minutes from our shop.

Wind damage from elevation exposure
Summit's elevation means more wind events per year than the lower-lying Union County towns. Lifted ridge caps and wind-driven rain leaks are common.
Slate and tile issues on Tudor-era homes
Pre-1940 original slate and tile are reaching end-of-life. Selective replacement extends; full restoration resets.
Complex dormer and valley flashing failures
Tudor and Colonial Revival roofs have lots of dormers and valleys. Original flashing eventually splits or pulls away from the deck, classic repair territory.
Ice dams in 1950s housing
Mid-century construction often skimped on attic ventilation. We add ridge vents during re-roofs to fix the underlying cause of ice dam formation.
Tree damage from the wooded sections
Mature trees in the hill sections mean falling-limb damage during storms. Same-day tarp response.

Reviews from the Summit area.
Honest from the first call. They told me my roof had two more years in it and to call them back then, instead of selling me a $20k replacement.
