Roofing, gutters, chimney & siding in Paterson, NJ
Older frame housing with steep shingle roofs, tall masonry chimneys, and aging wood soffit and fascia.
Paterson's frame housing stock is steep, tall, and close together, with masonry chimneys that outlived their liners. A large share of the roofs we look at here still have two or three layers of asphalt shingles over board sheathing.
Layer count drives the estimate. Once we confirm more than one existing layer, the job becomes a full tear-off with sheathing repair, new ice-and-water at the eaves and valleys, and new drip edge — not an overlay. We also price the chimney separately, because crown and brick joint repair is often what stops the leak, not the shingles.

Common questions from Paterson homeowners
- Can you shingle over the existing roof to save money?
- Only if there is one sound layer and the deck is flat and dry. With two layers or cupped shingles an overlay traps heat, voids most manufacturer warranties, and hides rotted sheathing.
- Do you replace wood soffit and fascia?
- Yes, and on Paterson's older frame homes it is common. We usually rebuild the fascia in wood, then cap it and vent the soffit so the new roof can actually breathe.
- How long does a steep three-story roof take?
- Two to three days for a typical tear-off and replacement, longer if we find deck damage or have to rig staging on the tight side of the house.
