Summit sits on top of the Second Watchung ridge, and much of it was built for train commuters in the late 1800s and early 1900s. That left a lot of large Victorians, Tudors and Colonial Revivals with steep, complicated roofs: several gables, dormers, valleys and tall chimneys. Newer colonials fill in between them, and almost every street sits under big old trees.
Where we work in Summit
Up on the ridge, Summit roofs take the full force of summer storms and nor'easters, and the trees that make the town so green drop limbs and fill gutters every fall. After a storm, look for shingles in the yard, granules piling up at the downspouts and stains on upstairs ceilings. An inspection with photos tells you whether it is a small repair or something bigger.
Our office is in Cranford, a short drive from Summit. We know older housing like Summit's: steep pitches, several dormers, chimney flashing and gutters that fill up under the trees. We price the tear-off, deck repair and flashing up front, and the same crew handles siding, gutters and decks. Book a free inspection.
Full tear-off, deck repair, ice & water barrier, synthetic underlayment and Owens Corning shingles.

See this project“Jimmy was our rep and I couldn't speak more highly of Jimmy and the Herts team. Customer service was a 10/10 as well as the job.”
“My roof looks great. It was hard to find a good reputable company. Your process was seamless and to the point.”
“Punctual, professional, and communicated clearly throughout the process.”
Yes. Many Summit homes are 80 to 120 years old, and we are used to steep pitches, dormers and big chimneys. If your home is a designated historic property, we check with the city before we start so the new roof meets any requirements.
Our office in Cranford is a short drive away. For active leaks we offer 24/7 emergency service and can tarp the roof until the repair is done. Call 908-206-4240.
It depends on the job. We check with Summit's construction office before we start and pull the permit whenever one is required, so you don't have to deal with it.
It depends on the size and pitch of the roof, how many old layers come off, how much decking needs replacing and the shingle you choose. Bigger, steeper roofs with dormers cost more. Use the ballpark calculator above for a rough range, then we give you an exact written price after a free inspection.
We inspect, photograph and document the damage, and we can meet your adjuster. Whether the claim is approved is up to your insurer.
