Dover is a town of 18,460 people, incorporated in 1869. The census puts the median build year of its housing at 1954, and that number tells us more about what we will find on a roof here than the address does. This is a wet town by county standards – 7.7% of Dover residents live inside the 1% annual-chance floodplain according to the county hazard plan – and that changes where we look first. Eaves, valleys, gutter pitch and downspout runs come before the field of the roof.
Dover Roofers, About 8 Minutes From Rockaway
Geographically, Dover is at 558 ft, with the Rockaway River running through the middle of town in a broad channel. Salem Village, North Dover and South Dover are sections of it, and there are others. If you know one building here it is probably the Blackwell Street Historic District, on the National Register since 1982 with 52 contributing buildings. There is also the Dover railroad station, listed in 1980. We would rather write that than another paragraph about being your trusted local roofing partner.

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, 100 Princeton Avenue, on 973-366-2200. Dover has a Historic Preservation Commission under Planning and Zoning.
None of that is guesswork, and neither is the estimate. 973-960-7921.

Roofing Work We Do in Dover, NJ
What we actually do in Dover, and what is different about doing it here.
- Roof Repair: We repair what is leaking rather than what is easiest to reach. In Dover that usually means a downspout run that stopped working and took the first shingle course with it – 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 Dover, 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 1954 in Dover, 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 Dover 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 Dover and after any storm. See roof inspection.
What Dover Customers Get
- Experienced Roofers: We work in Dover – Salem Village and North Dover included often enough to know what is under the shingles: the census median build year here is 1954, and roofs of that age carry their own list of problems. More than 1,000 projects since 2012.
- 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.
- 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 Dover roof, because under R908.3.1 that decides whether a recover is even legal.
- 24/7 Emergency Roofing: Dover is about 8 minutes from Rockaway via US-46 and West Main Street west. 973-960-7921 is answered 24 hours a day, every day, from Rockaway and Flanders.

Common Questions About Roofing in Dover
Do I need a permit to replace a roof in Dover?
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, 100 Princeton Avenue, on 973-366-2200.
How quickly can you get to Dover?
It is about 3.9 miles from Rockaway, roughly 8 minutes via US-46 and West Main Street west. 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 Dover?
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.
Why do you look at my gutters before my shingles in Dover?
Because in a town with 7.7% of its residents inside the 1% annual-chance floodplain, most of the water that gets into a house does not come through the middle of the roof. It comes over a full gutter, under the first course at the eaves, or down a valley that has not moved water freely in two years. Shingles are usually the last thing wrong.
If your question is not on the list, 973-960-7921 is answered 24 hours a day.
