What drives roof work in Somerville
Somerset County runs its construction inspections out of Somerville, and Somerville shares the Central Jersey weather pattern below. The opening line is what is particular to Somerville itself.
- Victorian and early-1900s stock with turrets, lined valleys, and tall chimneys.
- A cracked chimney crown or open mortar joint sends water down the flue and into the ceiling near the chimney chase.
- Storm damage from summer wind and hail lines
- Whole-neighborhood roof replacements hitting 25-30 years at once
- Undersized attic ventilation on builder-grade roofs
How we work on Somerville roofs
Masonry repair at the chimney comes before any roof work: rebuild the crown, repoint the joints, then cut in new counter-flashing.
Somerville permits and what happens on site
In Somerville the permit has to be posted before tear-off and the roof inspected before the job closes. We handle both, including the appointment.
Access gets planned before the crew shows up: where the dumpster sits, where materials get loaded, and how the yard and landscaping are protected during tear-off.
If the damage came from a storm, we photograph it, write the scope, and handle the insurance claim from filing through completion. NJ HIC# 13VH13549100.

Storm Guard Roofing did an outstanding job on our roofing project. The crew was professional, efficient, and clearly experienced. They completed the work exactly as promised, and the quality of the installation was excellent. What really stood out was how clean they left the property—everything was spotless after the job was done.

Common questions from Somerville homeowners
- Do you cover all of Somerville?
- Yes — every Somerville address, ZIP 08876, plus the surrounding Somerset County towns.
- What fails first on a Somerville roof?
- A chimney with no cricket on its high side dams water and debris against the brick until the flashing gives out. Finding the entry point matters more than the size of the repair, which is why nothing is quoted in Somerville sight-unseen.
- Do you handle emergency roof leaks in Somerville at night?
- We take leak calls around the clock on (201) 403-0024 and get to Somerville to make it watertight first; the permanent fix follows on a scheduled date.
- Who pulls the roofing permit in Somerville?
- Yes. A re-roofing permit is issued by the Somerville construction office and the work is inspected before closeout. We handle the filing and the inspection appointment.
Roofing questions from Somerville
- Do you do 24 hour emergency roof repair in Somerville?
- Yes. Emergency roof repair in Somerville 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 Somerville, NJ?
- Sectional gutter repairs and resealing are priced per run and usually land in the low hundreds; full seamless gutter replacement on an average Somerville house is priced by linear foot after we measure. You get the number in writing before work starts.
- Are gutter guards worth it on Somerville houses?
- They help where mature street trees drop debris all fall, which covers most of Somerville. 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 Somerville?
- 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 Somerville addition?
- Anything under about a 2:12 pitch needs a membrane, not shingles — that is most rear kitchen and porch additions in Somerville. Above that, architectural asphalt shingles are the standard choice. We will tell you which one your slope allows before quoting.
