What does an older pitched house need first?
An older pitched house in a walkable borough often has a ridge, a dormer or two and a chimney. The chimney base and the dormer cheeks are the first joints to check, because those are where a seam tends to open.
Ask the crew to start in the attic if you can get access safely, looking at the underside of the decking under the valleys. Stains there often show a leak before the ceiling does.
What about houses near the downtown?
Houses close to a downtown sit on narrow lots, and a crew may have little room for a dumpster or a ladder on the street. Tell the company about the access before the first visit.
If the house shares a side yard with a neighbour, mention it. The crew can plan the materials route around the shared space.
Does the river change the roof work?
A house on the Passaic side can see water rise along the lower wall as well as run off the roof. A leak at the base of a wall may be a grade or gutter problem, so the crew should check those too.
Photograph the lower wall and the gutters after heavy rain. Those pictures show whether the water is coming from above or from the ground.
What should I record before the visit?
Write down which room shows the stain, the date it first appeared and whether it followed a storm. Those notes help the crew decide where to start.
Ask the Rutherford construction office about any permit before work begins. No Rutherford permit rule was sourced for this page.

FAQ
Rutherford FAQs
Could a low stain be coming from the ground?
Yes. Tell the roofer where the stain sits on the wall, since a low stain can point to grade or gutters rather than the roof.
Do you handle emergencies in Rutherford?
Yes. Call (833) 751-2102 at any hour and describe the room and where the water enters.
Will someone come out the same day?
Only if a roofer is free. No arrival time is promised by phone.
Do I get a price first?
Yes. The price is set on site after the roofer has checked the problem and approved before any work begins.
Who does the work?
Newark Roofing does not do the roofing. It connects Rutherford callers with an independent local roofing company.
