What to know about roofs on Passaic's close-built homes

Passaic grew up as a mill city, so many homes are two- and three-family houses built close together, often with a flat roof over the back. Houses that close trap leaves and water in the narrow gaps between them, so the roof edges and gutters on those sides wear out first. Flooding from Hurricanes Irene in 2011 and Ida in 2021 showed how much water these older homes have to handle.

Herts Roofing & Construction in Passaic

Herts Roofing & Construction plans every Passaic job around how the city was built. On tight lots we protect the neighbor's house, carry materials in by hand when there's no room for equipment, and check the narrow side gaps where water and leaves collect. On two- and three-family homes we also look at the flat rear roofs and the old asbestos-cement or aluminum siding, so owners get one clear plan for the whole building. Book a free inspection.

Working on tight city lots

With homes a few feet apart, getting materials up and debris down takes planning. We protect neighboring siding, windows and cars, and schedule dumpster placement so the street stays usable. In Passaic Park the lots are bigger, with larger early-1900s homes and more complex roofs.

Leaks between close houses

Narrow gaps between houses collect leaves and snow. Roof edges and gutters on those sides wear out first.

Aging siding

Older aluminum and asbestos-cement siding cracks and lets water in. We replace it with vinyl or fiber cement.

Multi-unit scheduling

Tenants on every floor need to know what's happening. We give you a clear schedule you can share.

After a storm in Passaic: what do you see?

Check anything you've noticed. Stay off the roof, and look from the ground.

Nothing checked yet

If you don't see any of these, your roof probably came through fine. When in doubt, a free inspection settles it.
