What drives roof work in Princeton Junction

Princeton Junction sits in Mercer County, Central Jersey, county seat Trenton. The exposure below is what we document across the county; the first line is specific to Princeton Junction.

• Newer residential developments primarily feature asphalt shingle roofs on complex gabled structures, drainage typically adequate.
• Shingle failure starts where two planes meet — valleys, sidewalls, and around vents — not in the middle of the slope.
• Newer roofs with complex geometry leak at valleys, sidewall step flashing, and skylight curbs rather than in open field.
• Ceiling leaks traced to flashing rather than the field of the roof
• Parapet, coping, and shared-chimney-stack repairs on rowhouses
• Built-up and modified bitumen flat roof replacement

Roof types on Princeton Junction houses

Shingle replacement here is a tear-off to the deck, sheathing repair where it is soft, ice-and-water membrane at the eaves and valleys, new drip edge, and ridge venting sized to the attic.

Newer construction typically needs the details rebuilt — woven step flashing, a proper kick-out at the wall, and skylights re-flashed to the curb.
