Installed a large center picture window with two flanking units on a Passaic home — maximizing the glass area and the view while sealing out drafts.

The center fixed lite carries the view; the flankers were set to match sightlines and trim.

Arched Palladian Window — Fair Lawn

Installed a half-round arched (Palladian-style) window over paired rectangular units in a Fair Lawn gable — a specialty shape that has to be templated, not ordered off a shelf.

Arched and radius windows are cut to the exact curve of the opening; a stock rectangle won't fit and a bad template shows from the street. We field-measured the radius, matched the frame color to the existing units below, and set it flush in the stucco gable. Specialty-shape glazing like this is where a glass-first shop has the edge over a volume installer.

Old Steel Basement Window, Cracked and Taped — Westwood, NJ

The basement window before we started: three old steel-framed panes, a cracked pane held together with blue tape and a sill gathering dirt.

Basement windows get the least attention in a house, so a failed one often just gets taped. Here the glass is cracked across the lower corners and the tape is the only thing holding the pieces in the frame. Tape is not a seal: a window in this state keeps out neither drafts nor water, and nothing about it can be opened and closed safely. This is the opening as we found it, before the old unit came out.

New Hopper Basement Window in the Same Opening — Westwood, NJ

The same Westwood basement opening with a new white vinyl hopper window, trimmed and sealed into the block wall.

A hopper window hinges at the bottom and tips inward from the top, which suits a basement opening where a swinging sash would have nowhere to go. The latch sits at the top of the sash. The new unit goes into the existing opening with trim around it and sealant between the frame and the block, so the cracked, taped glass from the before photo is replaced by a window that opens, closes and latches.

Wood Sash Re-Glazing — On Site

Re-glazing a wood sash in place — the repair that saves an original window instead of replacing it.

Old wood sash fails at the glazing long before the wood itself goes. Once the putty dries out and cracks away, the glass loosens and water gets into the rabbet, and that's what actually rots the sash. Raking out the old compound and re-glazing restores the seal and buys decades — far cheaper than a replacement unit, and it keeps the original window.

Teaneck Multi-day 2026

Roof Replacement, New Gutters & Fascia Trim — Teaneck, NJ

Teaneck cape cod: roof replacement in dark architectural shingle, with new gutters, downspouts and fascia trim done in the same visit.

Three trades that belong in one visit. The fascia is the board the gutter hangs off, so the order matters: you cannot hang a straight gutter on soft fascia, and you cannot get at the fascia cleanly once the gutter is back up. Replacing the roof without touching either is how a job looks finished from the street and starts pulling away from the house in two winters. Here the shingle field went on first, then the fascia was trimmed out along the eaves and up both gable rakes, then the gutters and downspouts were hung and returned in black to match. A cape cod is also steeper than it looks from the kerb, and the front gable over the entry means the field is cut and capped twice on a small roof — there is nowhere to hide a crooked course on an elevation this narrow. Teaneck's housing stock is full of these 1940s and 50s capes, and they nearly all reach the same point at the same time: the roof and the trim behind the gutter go together.

Two-Family Roof Tear-Off & Re-Deck

Full tear-off on a two-family that went all the way down to the original rafters — the old decking couldn't be shingled over, so it was replaced before any new roof went on.

Once the shingles came off, the deck underneath was too far gone to fasten to. Shingling over bad decking is how a roof fails early: the nails never get a solid bite and the field telegraphs every soft spot. New plywood went down over the rafters first, then underlayment, then the shingle field. A dumpster staged at the curb kept the tear-off debris off the property.

Rutherford Multi-day 2026

Hip Roof Shingle Replacement — Rutherford

Architectural shingle over the hip end of a Rutherford home, finished up to the wall the lower roof runs into. Shown finished from the field side below.

A hip end has no simple gable to hide behind — two planes climb to a single peak and every course has to be cut to the hip and capped straight, or the line reads crooked from the street. This one also dies into the wall of the storey above it, which is the detail that decides whether the roof lasts: water shed off the upper wall lands on that junction, so it is flashed before the field goes on rather than sealed afterward.

Architectural Shingle Roof — Rutherford

The same Rutherford roof from the other side — the finished shingle field, with new drip edge run along the eave.

Shot down-slope over the driveway, so the eave detail is visible: the white line along the bottom edge is new drip edge. It is required by code on a re-roof, it is cheap, and it is one of the first things left off when a job is being priced down — which is why the edge of a roof is worth looking at before you sign anything. Without it, run-off wicks back under the first course and rots the deck edge where nobody sees it until the fascia goes soft. Between this frame and the hip shot, you can see the whole roof: how the planes are cut and capped up top, and how the field is terminated at the bottom.

The same two-family, finished — architectural asphalt shingle over a fully re-decked hip roof.

A hip roof has more field seams than a simple gable: four planes meeting at hips that all have to be cut and capped straight. Architectural shingle carries a hip roof well because the heavier tab pattern hides the plane transitions instead of highlighting them. The whole deck under this field is new.

Split-Level Tear-Off — Property Protected

Stripping a split-level down to bare deck — tarps go down before the first shingle comes off.

Tear-off is the messiest hour of any roof job, and it's where most of the complaints come from: shingle chunks in the beds, nails in the driveway, debris in the gutters. Tarping the landscaping and staging the drop zone before anything comes off is the difference between a clean handover and a week of picking nails out of the lawn.

Roof Decking & Underlayment — Colonial

New decking and underlayment going down on a colonial — the layer nobody sees once the shingles are on.

An open roof is the only chance to see what's actually under the shingles: soft decking, old penetrations, valleys that were never flashed right. Everything gets inspected and corrected while the deck is exposed, because once the field is closed in, reopening it costs more than doing it now.

Completed Colonial Roof — Skylights & Chimney

The finished colonial — skylights and a masonry chimney tied back into the new shingle field.

Penetrations are where roofs leak. Skylights and a masonry chimney on the same slope mean multiple flashing details that all have to shed water into the field rather than trap it. Getting those transitions right is the whole job — the shingles themselves are the easy part.

Full Roof Deck Re-Sheathing — Saddle River, NJ

Full tear-off down to the framing with the entire deck re-sheathed in new plywood before a single shingle went on.

Once the old roof is off, the deck is the part nobody sees and everything else depends on. Here the original sheathing was replaced across the whole slope rather than patched, which is what lets fasteners hold their design withdrawal strength — a nail into delaminated or punky sheathing does not, no matter how good the shingle above it is. Every crew member is tied off, and the deck was swept and inspected before underlayment.

Hip Roof Tear-Off & Re-Deck — Saddle River, NJ

A hip roof caught mid-changeover — old shingles off the upper slope, new decking down, materials coming up by ladder hoist.

Tear-off is staged so no section of deck sits open overnight. The ladder hoist matters more than it looks: running materials up mechanically keeps weight off the finished work and keeps the crew's hands free on the roof. Drip edge stock is staged along the eave here, which goes on before the underlayment at the eave and over it at the rake.

Re-Decking Around a Brick Chimney — Saddle River, NJ

New decking run tight to the chimney on a re-roof — the stage where a chimney leak is either solved or sealed in for another twenty years.

A chimney is the single most common place a roof leaks, and the reason is almost always what happens at this stage. Decking has to run true to the masonry so the flashing that follows sits flat against brick instead of bridging a gap. Old roofing was stripped back well past the chimney rather than cut around it, which is what lets the new step flashing weave course by course instead of being caulked over the top of the old work.

Completed Architectural Shingle Roof — Saddle River, NJ

A finished architectural shingle roof — chimney flashed, box vent and pipe boots set into the new field.

Everything that penetrates a roof is a place it can leak, so the boots and vents get replaced with the field rather than reused. What you can see here is the whole assembly working together: shingles laid into the valley, new metal at the chimney, and the exhaust and plumbing penetrations each sealed on their own terms instead of relying on one bead of caulk.

Architectural Shingles & Ridge Cap — Saddle River, NJ

Ridge cap going on over a finished architectural shingle field, with new pipe boots set into the courses.

The ridge and hips are where a roof is closed out, and they are laid last for a reason — cap shingles have to lap into the prevailing weather and cover the cut ends of the field on both sides. The pipe boots visible here were set as the courses ran past them, so the shingles lap over the top flange and under the bottom, which is what keeps water on top of the roof instead of behind the flange.

Parlin Multi-day 2026

Architectural Shingle Hip Roof — Parlin

Charcoal architectural shingles over a full tear-off on a Parlin home, shot down the hip while the field was still being run and the new gutter stock was staged on the roof.

Two things in this frame matter more than the shingles. The first is the dumpster below — this was a tear-off, not an overlay. A second layer laid over a first is legal in New Jersey up to two total, and it is cheaper, but it buries whatever the deck is doing and adds weight to a structure sized for one layer. The second is the black tarp over the planting bed. Tear-off debris falls where gravity sends it, and beds and shrubs are what get wrecked on a roof job. Along the right edge you can see new white gutter stock already staged on the finished slope, so the gutters went on as the roof closed out rather than as a return trip weeks later.

Completed Roof Replacement — Parlin Cape

The same Parlin roof from the street once it was done — charcoal architectural shingles, a new gutter line along the eave, and the original scalloped gable left as it was.

The front gable is the detail worth looking at. Its white scalloped shingle face was existing and stayed, which meant the new roof had to die cleanly into it on both slopes instead of being run past it and caulked. That junction and the bay-window roof below it are the two places on a house this shape where water is most likely to find a way in, and both are flashed as the courses run rather than sealed after the fact. The white line under the eave is new gutter — the same stock staged on the roof in the other frame — so the roof and the drainage that protects it were finished together.

Roof Replacement — Lodi Two-Family

Full tear-off and re-roof on a brick two-family in Lodi, shot mid-job with underlayment going down over new plywood and the shingle bundles staged along the ridge.

This is the frame worth asking any roofer for on your own house. Once the underlayment is rolled the deck is invisible, and by the next morning it is under shingle — so the plywood in this photo is the only evidence that anyone looked at the sheathing before covering it. Bundles are spread along the ridge rather than stacked in one place, which keeps a point load off a deck that was just re-nailed and means the crew is not walking finished shingle to fetch the next bundle.

Roof and gutters were one job here, which is the part worth noticing. Drainage is what protects a new roof, and running it as a separate trip weeks later leaves the eave detail unfinished in between. The white line under the shingle edge is new drip edge — required on a re-roof, cheap, and one of the first things dropped when a quote is being cut to win on price. Ask to see the eave on anything you are comparing.

Roof Replacement & New Gutters on a Brick Colonial — Franklin Lakes, NJ

A finished architectural asphalt shingle roof and new gutters on a brick colonial in Franklin Lakes, photographed from the front lawn by our crew after the job.

A front elevation like this one is mostly roof edges: gables that step in and out, a bay window with its own small metal roof, and short shingle runs that die into brick walls. Every one of those junctions is a place water can get behind a roof, which is why a colonial with this many planes is worth judging on its transitions, not its main field. When you compare quotes on a house shaped like this, ask how the walls, gable ends and bay roof are being flashed, because the flat open slope is the easy part. The gutters went on in the same job, so the roof edge and the drainage under it were finished together rather than on a second trip.

The steep front gable and the main roof field of the same Franklin Lakes colonial, with new architectural shingles running into the brick above an oval window and a new gutter along the eave.

The steep gable on the left and the lower main field meet along a valley, and the shingle courses on both sides have to line up across it. Look at how straight the courses run down the gable face and across the field: on a colonial this size the eye reads crooked rows from the street long before anyone notices a nail line. A steep pitch also sheds water fast, which is why the work that matters on a roof like this is at the edges and the brick, not in the middle of the slope.

The back of the Franklin Lakes house, shot through the pines: new architectural shingles on the rear roof lines around a brick chimney, above vinyl siding and an arched window.

Franklin Lakes is heavily wooded and the back of this house shows it, with white pine branches hanging right over the roof. Trees that close change what a roof has to put up with: needles and debris that sit in valleys and against a chimney, and shade that keeps a slope damp longer than a sunny one. The chimney is the other thing to look at in this frame. It is where a roof meets masonry that moves differently from the framing, so it is one of the first places to check on any roof, new or old.

A roof replacement under way on a Passaic house: the old asphalt shingles are partly stripped off the front gable and a crew member, tied off in a harness, works along the ridge.

This is the tear-off stage, so the roof is not finished and the frame shows exactly that: loose shingle pieces, torn edges and bare patches where the old roof is coming off. The overhead service wires run right across the slope, which is one more thing a crew has to work around at the eave and gable.

The blue tarps on the lawn and around the shrubs are that something, and a green roll-off dumpster is parked at the left edge of the frame for the debris.

Every pipe that pokes through a roof is a hole the new shingles have to seal around. On this slope the two vent pipes each come up through a metal flashing collar that sits on the shingles, one just under the chimney and one near the eave. The brick chimney itself wears a metal cap.

Chimney Cricket & Saddle Flashing — Saddle River, NJ

A fabricated metal cricket on the up-slope face of a chimney — the detail most re-roofs skip and most chimney leaks come back to.

Water running down a slope hits the back of a chimney and stalls there, and on a wide chimney it pools until it finds a way in. A cricket is a small peaked structure built on the ridge side of the chimney that splits that water and sends it around both sides. It is a code requirement, not an upgrade: IRC R903.2.2 calls for a cricket or saddle on the ridge side of any chimney or penetration more than 30 inches wide, measured perpendicular to the slope. We form the metal on site so it fits the actual masonry rather than approximating it with sealant.

Leak-Damaged Ceiling Before the Repair — Jersey City, NJ

A ceiling in a Jersey City home after a leak from above, open to the joists with torn drywall around the edges, photographed by our crew before the repair.

Water that sits on top of a ceiling soaks the drywall until it sags and tears, and the board around the hole can stay wet well past where the paint still looks fine. That is why a leak repair starts by cutting back to sound, dry board rather than patching the hole you can see. An opening this size also shows the joists and the boards above them, which is where you can see whether the water reached the framing before anything is closed in.

If you are finishing a ceiling that took on water yourself, use a stain-blocking primer under the paint. Leak stains bleed through ordinary ceiling paint, often weeks after the ceiling looked done. The smaller hole at the edge of the ceiling in the same room was patched flush on the same visit.

Woodland Park Patch installed 2026

Wall Hole Patched With New Drywall — Woodland Park, NJ

A hole where something had struck an interior wall, cut back to a clean square and closed with a new piece of drywall, photographed by our crew before any tape or compound went on.

A patch needs something to hold it. The screw holes around the cut-out show how the new piece is fastened to what is behind the wall, so it sits flush with the wall instead of floating on its edges. Nothing is hidden yet at this stage: the seams are bare and the screw holes still have to be filled with compound before the wall can be sanded and primed.

Woodland Park Skim coat 2026

Wall Skim-Coated Wide Over a Drywall Patch — Woodland Park, NJ

The same wall after the patch was taped and skim-coated, with the compound spread well past the patch and thinned out toward the edges.

The coat is much wider than the hole on purpose. Compound spread only as far as the patch dries as a raised square that shows once the wall is painted, so it is thinned gradually into the surrounding wall, a process called feathering. It still has to be sanded smooth before primer.

Woodland Park Primed 2026

Drywall Patch Sanded and Primed — Woodland Park, NJ

The same wall after sanding and primer: the patched area is smooth and sealed, and the final coat of paint is still to come.

Primer comes before paint on a patch because compound soaks up paint faster than the old wall around it, which leaves a dull, blotchy spot that stays visible even under a good topcoat. Sealing the repair first gives the paint one even surface to sit on. This frame is that stage, so the wall is not finished: the primed patch still looks different from the wall around it until the final coat goes on.
