What Dunellen Homes Actually Need
Aging roofs often hide plank decking with gaps, plus failing flashing at chimneys and party walls on two-family homes. Full tear-offs with re-decking where needed stop the repeat-leak cycle.
Older wood siding benefits from insulated vinyl or fiber cement with PVC trim that keeps the original look without ongoing scraping and painting.
Narrow side yards concentrate runoff. Correctly pitched gutters with downspouts routed to daylight keep water off foundations.
Dunellen Permits & Lot Realities
Full replacements need permits through the Borough of Dunellen. We file and coordinate inspections.
On two-family homes we coordinate access with both units and keep common areas clean daily.

Frequently Asked Questions
My roof has plank decking with gaps. Is that a problem?
It can be. We re-deck gaps beyond shingle manufacturer tolerance during tear-off so the new roof has a solid nailable surface.
Do I need a permit in Dunellen?
Yes for most full roof and siding replacements. We handle it.
Can you match older home styles?
Yes. We use siding profiles and trim that suit bungalows and colonials rather than generic new-construction looks.
How fast after a storm?
Usually 24 to 48 hours for inspection, with tarping on the first visit when rain is coming.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. NJ Home Improvement Contractor license #13VH00483900.
