Questions

Roofing questions in Jersey City

Does Jersey City have a lot of older roofs?

Yes. By Census estimates for 2019 to 2023, 58% of homes here were built before 1980, and 57.6% in the ZIP code figures, with a median build year of 1970 for the place. Older homes often have older decks and flashing. Call to book an inspection and ask for a written estimate on what needs work.

When is hail most likely here?

July is the peak month. The hail season runs March through September, and July accounts for 35 of the 138 reports within 25 km since 2000. Hudson County itself logged 0 hail events of one inch or larger in NOAA's since 2015 records, but nearby reports are frequent. Book a roof inspection before July.

Do ice dams form on roofs here?

They do. NCEI normals show 83 freezing days and 28 inches of snow a year here. A roof over a warm, leaky attic will build an ice dam in that weather. Sealing the attic is the fix.

Why do roofs here leak?

Usually at the flashing. The nearest station records 50 inches of rain in a normal year. That much water finds the pipe boots, valleys and chimney seams first.
