Roofers in Roxbury, NJ | Reliable Roxbury Roofing Services
We have been putting roofs on Roxbury houses since 2012. We work out of 9 Stony Brook Road in Rockaway – about 10.2 miles and 17 minutes away via US-46 west through Dover and Wharton to Ledgewood – and a second office in Flanders. Boonton and Morris Plains are on the same run. Most of what we are called out for here starts at the ridge and the rakes. We do roof repair, roof replacement, roof installation, roof maintenance and roof inspection, and the chimney repair and gutter work that go with them.

Roxbury became a township in 1798 and had 22,950 residents at the 2020 census. The census puts the median build year of its housing at 1971, and that number tells us more about what we will find on a roof here than the address does. Roxbury sits at fronting Lake Hopatcong, the largest freshwater lake in New Jersey; the Landing section sits at 922 ft, and exposed ground is hard on the perimeter of a roof. Ridge cap first, then the rake edge, then the drip edge: that is the order things come loose in up here, and it is the order we inspect in.
Roxbury Roofers, About 17 Minutes From Rockaway
Geographically, Roxbury is at fronting Lake Hopatcong, the largest freshwater lake in New Jersey; the Landing section sits at 922 ft. Succasunna, Ledgewood and Landing are sections of it, and there are others. If you know one building here it is probably the Ledgewood Historic District, 41 acres and 40 contributing buildings, on the National Register since 2013. There is also the King Store and Homestead on Main Street, listed in 1994. That is the town; below is what its roofs are like.

Roofing Conditions in Roxbury
Lake-front houses at Landing take wind straight off four square miles of open water, which is why we look at ridge caps and drip edge there first.

Under N.J.A.C. 5:23-2.7(c)1x, replacing the roof covering on a detached one- or two-family house in New Jersey counts as ordinary maintenance, so no construction permit is needed. Attached homes – townhouses and condominiums – are not covered by that exemption and do need one. The office to ask is the Construction Department, 1715 Route 46, Ledgewood, on 973-448-2009. Roxbury’s Historic Advisory Committee is charged with reviewing building permits in the Main Street and Succasunna historic preservation districts, so a roof at one of those addresses needs more than a UCC permit.
None of that is guesswork, and neither is the estimate. 973-960-7921.

Roofing Work We Do in Roxbury, NJ
These are the jobs we are called out for in Roxbury and what each one involves here.
- Roof Repair: We repair what is leaking rather than what is easiest to reach. In Roxbury that usually means cap shingles off the ridge and a rake edge that has worked loose – not the field of the roof. Emergency call-outs 24 hours a day on 973-960-7921. See roof repair.
- Roof Installation: New roofs on extensions, dormers, garages and new builds in Roxbury, built as a system: ice-and-water membrane at the eaves and valleys, synthetic underlayment, starter course, GAF or Owens Corning shingles, new flashing and a vented ridge. See roof installation.
- Roof Replacement: Full tear-off to the deck, the deck inspected and soft sheets replaced at a rate agreed before we start. With a median build year of 1971 in Roxbury, we check how many layers are already up there before quoting, because that decides whether it is a recover or a strip. See roof replacement.
- Roof Maintenance: Two visits a year – the spring one finds what the winter did, the autumn one clears the gutters and checks the flashing before the first freeze. On Roxbury roofs the autumn visit is the one that matters most. See roof maintenance and gutter cleaning.
- Roof Inspection: Shingles, flashing, valleys, eaves and the attic, with the layers already on the deck counted and the whole thing written down. Worth doing before you buy a house in Roxbury and after any storm. See roof inspection.
Why People in Roxbury Call Us
- Experienced Roofers: We work in Roxbury – Succasunna and Ledgewood included often enough to know what is under the shingles: the census median build year here is 1971, and roofs of that age carry their own list of problems. More than 1,000 projects since 2012.
- Licensed and Insured: Registration #13VH10877700 is active on the New Jersey state register and our general liability runs to $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate. Ask for the certificate and you get it before anyone gets on the roof.
- Free Roofing Estimates: Written and itemised, so you can compare it line by line: tear-off and disposal, the deck-repair rate per sheet, ice-and-water membrane, underlayment, flashing, ventilation and clean-up. We also tell you how many layers are already on your Roxbury roof, because under R908.3.1 that decides whether a recover is even legal.
- Expert Roofing Solutions: GAF Certified Contractor and Owens Corning Preferred Contractor, so the manufacturer system warranty is available on your roof rather than a materials-only one. BBB Accredited A+. 5.0 from 99 Google reviews with our replies visible on them.

Roxbury Roofing Questions We Are Asked
Do I need a permit to replace a roof in Roxbury?
Under N.J.A.C. 5:23-2.7(c)1x, replacing the roof covering on a detached one- or two-family house in New Jersey counts as ordinary maintenance, so no construction permit is needed. Attached homes – townhouses and condominiums – are not covered by that exemption and do need one. The office to ask is the Construction Department, 1715 Route 46, Ledgewood, on 973-448-2009.
How quickly can you get to Roxbury?
It is about 10.2 miles from Rockaway, roughly 17 minutes via US-46 west through Dover and Wharton to Ledgewood. 973-960-7921 is answered 24 hours a day, every day. For an active leak we come out, make it safe and dry, and talk about the permanent repair afterwards.
How many layers of roofing are allowed in Roxbury?
Two. New Jersey Residential Code R908.3.1 forbids a recover over a roof that already carries two applications of roof covering, and a replacement has to come off down to the deck. A quote for a third layer is a quote to break the code.
Is wind damage common on Roxbury roofs?
More than in the valley towns, yes. At fronting Lake Hopatcong, the largest freshwater lake in New Jersey; the Landing section sits at 922 ft a roof takes wind with less in the way of it, and uplift always starts at an edge – a rake, an eave or the ridge – and works inward. A roof that has lost cap shingles twice has an edge-detail problem, not a shingle problem, and re-nailing the same way will produce the same result.
If your question is not on the list, 973-960-7921 is answered 24 hours a day.
