Butler Roofers, About 30 Minutes From Rockaway
There are 8,047 people in Butler, which has been a borough since 1901. The useful thing to know before climbing a ladder here is how old the houses are. A census median build year of 1962 means most of these roofs have been re-covered at least once already. What is underneath matters more than what is on top, and nobody can tell you what is underneath without lifting something. Geographically, Butler is at 456 ft, in the valley of the Pequannock River and Stonehouse Brook. The Butler Heights section is part of it. The landmark most people know it by is the Butler Museum in the old New York, Susquehanna and Western station on Main Street. That is the town; below is what its roofs are like.

What We Find on Butler Roofs
Butler was built as a hard-rubber mill town and the company sold worker housing on Gifford Street to its own employees on instalments; those houses are still there.
A census median build year of 1962 means most of these roofs have been re-covered at least once already. What is underneath matters more than what is on top, and nobody can tell you what is underneath without lifting something.
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 Building Department, shared with Bloomingdale at 182 Union Avenue, Bloomingdale, on 973-838-7995.
None of that is guesswork, and neither is the estimate. 973-960-7921.

Butler Roof Repair, Replacement and Inspection
The work below is what Butler houses need most often.
- Roof Repair: We repair what is leaking rather than what is easiest to reach. In Butler that usually means reused flashing from the last job on the roof – not the field of the roof. Emergency call-outs 24 hours a day on 973-960-7921. See roof repair.
- 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 1962 in Butler, 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 Butler roofs the autumn visit is the one that matters most. See roof maintenance and gutter cleaning.
- Emergency Roofing Services: 973-960-7921 is answered 24 hours a day, every day. Butler is about 30 minutes away. We make it safe and dry first and quote the permanent repair afterwards.

Common Questions About Roofing in Butler
Do I need a permit to replace a roof in Butler?
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 Building Department, shared with Bloomingdale at 182 Union Avenue, Bloomingdale, on 973-838-7995.
How quickly can you get to Butler?
It is about 21.7 miles from Rockaway, roughly 30 minutes via I-80 east to I-287 north, then the Paterson-Hamburg Turnpike. 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 Butler?
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.
How do I find out how many layers my Butler roof has?
Lift a shingle at a rake edge or look at the thickness at the eaves – or let us do it as part of a free inspection and write it down. It matters because two, and no more. Under New Jersey Residential Code R908.3.1 a recover is not permitted where the existing roof already has two applications of covering, and a roof replacement must strip back to the deck. If you already have two, a tear-off is the only lawful route.
