Common questions from Clifton homeowners

Can a flat kitchen roof be shingled?

No. Below about 2:12 pitch, shingles cannot shed water reliably. Those sections need a membrane such as TPO or modified bitumen.

Why does the leak only appear in heavy rain?

That points to flashing or drainage rather than an open hole — water only reaches the failure point when it backs up or blows sideways.

Do you handle both units of a two-family at once?

Yes. One roof, one permit, one warranty, regardless of how many units are underneath.

Roofing questions from Clifton

Do you do 24 hour emergency roof repair in Clifton?

Yes. Emergency roof repair in Clifton runs 24 hours a day: leak stopped, tarp installed if the weather is still coming down, then a written scope for the permanent repair. Call and you speak to someone, not an answering service.

What does gutter repair cost in Clifton, NJ?

Sectional gutter repairs and resealing are priced per run and usually land in the low hundreds; full seamless gutter replacement on an average Clifton house is priced by linear foot after we measure. You get the number in writing before work starts.

Are gutter guards worth it on Clifton houses?

They help where mature street trees drop debris all fall, which covers most of Clifton. Micro-mesh guards over properly pitched seamless gutter is the combination that keeps working; cheap plastic screens clog and hide the problem.

How do you stop ice dams in Clifton?

Ice dams are a ventilation and insulation problem, not a gutter problem. We check attic intake and exhaust, insulation depth at the eave, and whether ice-and-water shield was ever installed at the first courses, then fix the cause instead of raking the roof every January.

Asphalt shingles or a flat roof for my Clifton addition?

Anything under about a 2:12 pitch needs a membrane, not shingles — that is most rear kitchen and porch additions in Clifton. Above that, architectural asphalt shingles are the standard choice. We will tell you which one your slope allows before quoting.
