South Orange is a village of large older detached houses with pitched roofs, so the pitch, the chimneys and the gutters are the first things to look at.
South Orange is a village anchored by Seton Hall University, with a downtown built around the train station.
The houses are mostly large older detached houses with pitched roofs. No roofing rules or historic-district roof rules were sourced for the village, so this page does not say what the village requires.
Tropical-remnant rain and wind in late summer, nor'easters, and freeze-thaw at the eaves in winter decide which roof problems come up in Newark from week to week.
Large detached houses with pitched roofs have long gutters, several gables and tall chimneys. Each gable and each chimney is a place where water can get behind the covering, and the gutters carry a lot of water on a big roof.
Ask the crew to check the gutters and the downspouts first. A clogged or undersized gutter on a large roof can cause a leak that looks like a shingle failure.
A tall chimney in a village house is exposed to wind and to the flashing around its base. Mortar and flashing are the usual weak points, and a stain that runs down the chimney breast often starts there.
Photograph the chimney and each gable from the ground. Those images help the roofer plan the access and the flashing work.
Houses close to the downtown and the station can have narrower lots and less room for a crew and a dumpster. Tell the company about the parking and the access so the first visit is planned.
Ask whether the work needs a lane or a sidewalk closure. That is usually a municipal question, and it should be settled before the crew arrives.
Write the date of the first stain, the room it is in and whether it follows heavy rain or wind. Those notes help the crew separate a gutter overflow from a roof leak.
Ask the South Orange construction office about any permit before work begins. No South Orange permit rule was sourced for this page.
