Hamilton Township is the most populous town in Mercer County, a large suburban township just southeast of Trenton.

Neighbourhoods like Hamilton Square, Mercerville and White Horse are mostly post-war capes, ranches and two-storey homes, with older homes nearer Trenton.

Many of those roofs are on their second or third covering, and capes with dormers have more valleys and walls to flash than a simple gable.

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

• Split-level tie-ins. Where a lower roof meets an upper wall, ask for step flashing and ice and water shield at the joint.
• Attic ventilation. Original attics often have little venting. Ridge and soffit vents added during a replacement help the new roof last.
• Plank decking. Many post-war roofs sit on board decking. Ask how gaps or soft boards will be handled and priced.
• Whole-street timing. Homes built together tend to wear out together; neighbours' replacements are a good sign of where yours stands.
• Cape dormers. Dormers add walls and valleys to flash. Ask for new step flashing where each dormer meets the roof.
