Essex County
Roofing, gutters, chimney & siding in Montclair, NJ
Slate, tile, and cedar roofs on older homes where matching material matters for repairs.
Montclair has the widest mix of premium roof materials in Essex County: natural slate, clay tile, and cedar shake on homes where the roof is part of the architecture. Repairs here are judged on how well they match.
We source matching slate and tile by size, thickness, and color, and we use copper for valley and chimney work on homes that already have copper. Where a full replacement is needed we present both period-correct and synthetic options with the cost and service life of each, rather than defaulting to asphalt.

Common questions from Montclair homeowners
- Can a single cracked slate be replaced?
- Yes, with a slate hook or copper strap rather than face-nailing. Face-nailed repairs crack the neighboring slates within a few seasons.
- Do you install copper gutters?
- Yes, half-round copper with matching downspouts and soldered joints where the house already has copper.
- Is clay tile repairable in place?
- Usually. Most tile leaks come from failed underlayment or flashing, so the tile is removed, the substrate rebuilt, and the tile reset.
