Madison Roofers | Expert Madison, NJ Roofing Services
Roofing in Madison is something we have done since 2012. We work out of 9 Stony Brook Road in Rockaway – about 15.8 miles and 25 minutes away via I-80 east to I-287 south, then NJ-124 and the Columbia Turnpike – and a second office in Flanders. Lincoln Park and Florham Park are on the same run. Converted cottages and open water are the two things that shape the work here. We do roof repair, roof replacement, roof installation, roof maintenance and roof inspection, and the chimney repair and gutter work that go with them.

Madison Roofers, About 25 Minutes From Rockaway
Madison is a borough of 16,937 people, incorporated in 1889. The census puts the median build year of its housing at 1961, and that number tells us more about what we will find on a roof here than the address does. A lot of the housing here began as summer places and grew. That means dormers added later, valleys where two roofs meet at an awkward pitch, and flashing detail that has been redone by more than one hand. It is skilled work rather than fast work. The town sits at 266 ft, on Spring Garden Brook and Black Brook. Brooklake Park, East Madison and North Park are sections of it, and there are others. The landmark most people know it by is the Bottle Hill Historic District, on the National Register. There is also the Hartley Dodge Memorial, the borough hall, and Drew University. None of that puts a roof on, but it is what tells you we have actually been here.

Roofing Conditions in Madison
Madison has the oldest housing stock of the ten towns in its group – a median build year of 1961 – and the county hazard plan makes a point about it worth repeating: few flooding problems in Madison originate outside the borough, and its drainage problems are put down to inadequate culverts and storm sewers, with runoff on steep streets overshooting the inlets. That is a downspout-and-grading problem as much as a roof one.
A lot of the housing here began as summer places and grew. That means dormers added later, valleys where two roofs meet at an awkward pitch, and flashing detail that has been redone by more than one hand. It is skilled work rather than fast work.
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 and Construction Department, 50 Kings Road, currently working from 29 Prospect Street, on 973-593-3064. Madison requires a Certificate of Historic Review for any exterior change inside a historic district, with particular attention to features visible from the street – a roof qualifies. The commission’s report carries no mandatory conditions, but the review still has to happen, so build the time into the schedule.
If your roof is in Madison and you want it looked at by someone who already knows the answers to that, call 973-960-7921.

Roof Repair and Replacement in Madison, NJ
The work below is what Madison houses need most often.
- Roof Repair: We repair what is leaking rather than what is easiest to reach. In Madison that usually means wall abutments on a cottage that has grown twice – 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 Madison, 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 1961 in Madison, 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 Madison 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 Madison and after any storm. See roof inspection.
- Emergency Roof Repair: 973-960-7921 is answered 24 hours a day, every day. Madison is about 25 minutes away. We make it safe and dry first and quote the permanent repair afterwards.

Common Questions About Roofing in Madison
Do I need a permit to replace a roof in Madison?
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 and Construction Department, 50 Kings Road, currently working from 29 Prospect Street, on 973-593-3064.
How quickly can you get to Madison?
It is about 15.8 miles from Rockaway, roughly 25 minutes via I-80 east to I-287 south, then NJ-124 and the Columbia 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 Madison?
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.
Why does my Madison cottage need more flashing than my neighbour’s house?
Because it has more junctions. Every addition put on a former summer cottage creates a new wall abutment, a new valley or a new change of pitch, and each one needs step and counter flashing done properly. Houses like this leak at the junctions, almost never in the middle of a slope.
Ask us anything else on 973-960-7921.
