Roofing in Montclair
Older materials need a compatible repair plan.
Montclair homes may combine slate or shingle roof areas, masonry chimneys, dormers and later additions. A repair must account for material compatibility and the surrounding details rather than rely on surface sealant alone.
We document visible conditions, trace likely water paths and explain whether a focused repair can preserve serviceable materials. When replacement is appropriate, the scope includes flashings, ventilation and water-protection layers alongside the finish roof.
