Roof Repair in Westfield, done right.
Westfield's housing tells the town's history. The largest homes, the Victorians and Queen Annes near downtown, were built when this was a train-station commuter town in the late 1800s. Multiple roof planes, decorative trim, slate or tile originals. A lot of them are now into their fourth or fifth generation of roof work.
The newer sections toward the Cranford line are mid-century to modern, with simpler roof shapes and more asphalt. The town has strict historic-preservation guidelines in certain sections, which we work within when permits require it. For roof replacements you generally won't need historic review unless the home is individually designated.
Westfield is part of our Union County roofing service area. We are a New Jersey roofing contractor headquartered in Englewood.

Slate and tile slippage on the Victorians
Original slate and tile from the 1880s-1920s are well past their service life. Tiles slide; slate cracks and slips off its nails.
Decorative trim flashing failures
Victorian roofs have lots of decorative elements that need flashing. Originals eventually leak at the seams, classic repair work.
Chimney crown deterioration
Original masonry chimney crowns from the 1880s-1920s crack and let water into the chimney structure. Common Westfield leak source.
Worn shingles on the mid-century housing
Original 25-30 year shingles on the post-war Westfield sections are due for full replacement.
Gutter overflow on complex Victorian roofs
Deep eaves and complex valleys overwhelm undersized original gutter systems. Upgrading during a re-roof is the easy time to fix it.

Westfield's Victorians and Queen Annes have more places to leak than almost any other roofs we see: turrets, dormers, decorative trim, deep eaves and several chimneys, each one flashed by hand a century ago. Water gets in where two roof planes meet, where trim meets the roof, and at chimney crowns that have cracked. On the Colonials along Tuttle Parkway and the newer homes toward the Cranford line, the usual culprits are vent boots and worn flashing. Roof leak repair starts in the attic and ends at the real source.
Roof replacement in Westfield
Replacing the roof on a Westfield Victorian is detail work: every valley, dormer and trim joint is re-flashed, and undersized original gutters are often upgraded at the same time. Most homes are not in a regulated historic district, but for the ones that are individually designated, we coordinate the review before the permit is filed. On simpler mid-century roofs, a roof replacement usually takes one to two days; the larger Victorians take four to seven.

Reviews from the Westfield 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.
