Roofing and Siding Contractor in North Plainfield, NJ
Careful exterior work for North Plainfield's Victorian and early 1900s homes
Your Local North Plainfield Contractor
North Plainfield is known for its older housing, especially the Victorian and early twentieth century homes in and around the Washington Park Historic District. These houses have steep roofs, turrets, porches and decorative trim that need a contractor who is comfortable with older construction.
The borough also has many modest mid-century homes and multi-family houses. Double D Construction works on all of them, from full roof replacements to porch and trim repairs.

Older Homes in North Plainfield
Victorian roofs often have many intersecting planes, dormers and turrets, and the flashing around them may be decades old. When we replace these roofs, we rebuild the flashing and pay close attention to transitions where water collects.
Porches are a defining feature here. Porch roofs, columns, floors and railings take the most weather and are often the first areas to rot. We can repair or rebuild porches while keeping the original look.
Mid-Century and Multi-Family Homes
Beyond the Victorian homes, North Plainfield has many mid-century single-family houses and two-family homes. For owners of rental and two-family properties, we can schedule work to limit disruption to tenants and provide clear documentation of the work for your records.
Historic District Considerations
If your home is in the Washington Park Historic District, exterior changes may need review before work begins. We can help you gather product information and drawings for that process.
We pull building permits through the borough where required and schedule inspections as part of the job.
