Questions

Roofing questions in Newark

How common is hail damage in Newark?

The area sits in the High hail band, with 62 hail reports within 15 km since 2000. NOAA's county record for Essex shows only 1 hail event since 2015, against 15 in Edison's county, so damage is occasional but real. After a hard storm, call to book a roof inspection and a written estimate.

Are local roofs older than roofs in nearby towns?

Yes. Census estimates for 2019 to 2023 show 66% of local homes were built before 1980, compared with 57% in the Edison area. The ZIP's median build year is 1964. Older roofs need a closer look at the decking and flashing, so call for an inspection and a written estimate.

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?

Rain here averages 50 inches a year in NCEI normals. Most leaks start at flashing, pipe boots and valleys. The repair begins by tracing the entry point.
