Chester Township Roofers, About 31 Minutes From Rockaway
Chester Township is a township of 7,713 people, incorporated in 1799. What its roofs have in common is the age of the housing they sit on. A census median build year of 1981 puts most of this town on its first covering. The good news is that a single-layer tear-off is the cheapest kind of replacement there is; the catch is that whole streets come due within a few years of each other. The town sits at 787 ft, with about 86% of the township inside the Highlands Preservation Area. Milldale, Milltown and Hacklebarney are sections of it, and there are others. If you know one building here it is probably the General Nathan Cooper Mansion, on the National Register since 1978. There is also the Nathan Cooper Gristmill, listed in 1976. None of that puts a roof on, but it is what tells you we have actually been here.

What We Find on Chester Township Roofs
Chester Township has the newest housing stock of any town we cover, a median build year of 1981, which means a lot of roofs here are on their second covering rather than their first.
A census median build year of 1981 puts most of this town on its first covering. The good news is that a single-layer tear-off is the cheapest kind of replacement there is; the catch is that whole streets come due within a few years of each other.
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, 1 Parker Road, on 908-879-5100. The Historic Preservation Committee that reviews exterior work is Chester Borough’s, not the township’s – two separate municipalities with the same name.
That is the local picture. If you want your own roof looked at against it, 973-960-7921 is answered any hour.

Roofing Work We Do in Chester Township, NJ
The work below is what Chester Township houses need most often.
- Roof Repair: We repair what is leaking rather than what is easiest to reach. In Chester Township that usually means original flashing reaching the end of its life at the same time as the shingles – 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 Chester Township, 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 1981 in Chester Township, 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 Chester Township 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 Chester Township and after any storm. See roof inspection.

- Reliable Roofing Company: 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.

- 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 Chester Township roof, because under R908.3.1 that decides whether a recover is even legal.

Roofing Questions From Chester Township Homeowners
Do I need a permit to replace a roof in Chester Township?
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, 1 Parker Road, on 908-879-5100.
How quickly can you get to Chester Township?
It is about 17.8 miles from Rockaway, roughly 31 minutes via Dover-Chester Road, CR 513, south through Dover. 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 Chester Township?
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.
Everyone on my Chester Township street is getting a new roof. Should I?
Possibly, and it is not a coincidence. With a median build year of 1981, houses here went up close together and their original roofs are running out together. That said, the roof to replace is yours, not the street’s – an inspection tells you where yours actually is.
Anything not answered here, call 973-960-7921 – any hour, any day.
