Your Local Metuchen Roofing Expert
Metuchen is a compact borough with an older, more characterful housing stock than most of Middlesex County — Victorians, foursquares, craftsman bungalows, and 1920s colonials on tree-lined streets near the downtown and the train station, with mid-century homes filling in around them. Narrow streets, mature trees, and homes close together make Metuchen a borough where the logistics of a roofing job matter as much as the roofing.
DGC Roof is based nearby in South River, so we're in Metuchen constantly and we know how to stage work here without turning your street into a problem. Licensed and insured, 5-year workmanship warranty. Call (732) 430-5765.
What we do, in detail
Roof Replacement in Metuchen
On Metuchen's older homes, expect plank decking, multiple prior shingle layers, and rotted rafter tails or cornice trim behind the gutters. We tear off to the deck, repair or re-sheath as needed, install ice-and-water shield at the eaves and in valleys, and correct ventilation. Steep Victorian and foursquare roofs take longer and need staging, and we price that honestly rather than discovering it mid-job. Architectural shingles standard; slate and cedar handled as separate conversations.
Roof Repair in Metuchen
Typical Metuchen repairs: valley leaks on multi-gable Victorians, chimney flashing on old masonry, dormer sidewall flashing, porch and bay roof leaks (those low-slope sections need membrane, not shingles), and limb-strike damage from the borough's heavy tree canopy.
Gutter Replacement & Repair in Metuchen
Metuchen's tree cover fills gutters fast, and on older homes the gutters hang on decorative fascia and cornice work that's often rotted from years of overflow. We repair or rebuild that wood before hanging anything new. We install seamless aluminum formed on site, plus half-round and copper on homes where the architecture calls for it, and we route downspouts carefully given how close these houses sit to each other.
Siding Replacement in Metuchen
Older Metuchen homes have profile and trim details that a standard vinyl wrap flattens out. We install fiber cement, insulated vinyl, and vinyl, matching exposure and rebuilding trim rather than simplifying it. Sheathing repair and proper house wrap are part of every job. On mid-century homes, replacing aging aluminum siding with insulated vinyl is a meaningful comfort upgrade as well as a cosmetic one.
