Roofing Contractor in Garfield, NJ

Prestige Roofing & Construction works in Garfield, Bergen County, from our yard in Lodi, about 5 minutes away. We do roof repair, roof replacement, leak repair and the rest of our services here, and every job starts the same way: an inspection, photos of what we find, and a written price before any work.

Garfield is a city on the Passaic River directly next to Lodi, minutes from our yard.

Garfield has dense, older housing, with many two-family homes and early 20th-century houses close together.

Older roofs here often carry two layers, rear additions are often low-slope, and chimneys on older brick homes are a frequent source of leaks.

Based on the homes we see in Garfield, these are the things worth asking about on an estimate:

• Old layers underneath. If there are already two layers of shingles, the code limit has been reached: the estimate should include a full tear-off.
• Brick chimneys. On older brick, ask whether the price includes new step and counter flashing, not just sealant.
• Low-slope rear additions. Back porches and kitchen additions often have too little pitch for shingles. They need a membrane, not another layer of asphalt.
• Tight lots. On close-set streets, ask how debris is handled: chutes, a smaller dumpster and protection for the neighbour's side.
• Two-family homes. Ask for both sides of the roof priced together, so the whole building is on one warranty and one schedule.
