Somerset NJ (Franklin Township) roof replacement, roof repair, gutter and siding services. Same-day installs, 5-yr warranty.
Somerset — the section of Franklin Township along Easton Avenue, Hamilton Street, and JFK Boulevard — has one of the most varied housing stocks in the county. Post-war ranches and capes, 1960s and 1970s split-levels, later colonials, and a large number of townhome and condo communities, all within a few miles of each other. Roofs here range from 900 square feet to complex multi-section jobs, and the right answer is different for each.
DGC Roof is based nearby in South River, so response times in Somerset are short. Free estimates, most residential roofs done in a day, and a written 5-year workmanship warranty on every one. Call (732) 430-5765.
The 1960s and 1970s homes in Somerset are frequently on their second or third roof, and layering has hidden a lot of deck problems. We tear off to the bare deck, replace bad plywood, install ice-and-water shield at the eaves and valleys, and correct the ventilation — a very large share of the split-levels here have intake or exhaust ventilation that was never right, which cooks shingles from underneath and shortens roof life. Architectural shingles, full cleanup, magnet sweep, warranty in writing.
We do a lot of targeted repair work in Somerset: pipe boot replacement (the single most common cause of a mystery ceiling stain), valley leaks, chimney flashing, and the roof-to-wall junctions on split-levels where the upper level meets the lower roof. If your roof has real life left, a repair is the right call and we'll say so. If it doesn't, we won't sell you one.
Seamless aluminum gutters, formed on site, in 5-inch and 6-inch, with downspouts sized and placed to carry water away from the foundation. On the ranches and capes here, undersized or badly pitched gutters are extremely common — the runs were installed once, decades ago, and have sagged since. We also do repair work: hanger replacement, seam and end-cap resealing, pitch correction, and fascia replacement where overflow has rotted the wood.
Somerset has a lot of aging aluminum and first-generation vinyl siding that is chalking, dented, or cracked. We replace it with vinyl, insulated vinyl, or fiber cement, and we replace the wrap and repair the sheathing underneath rather than covering damage up. Soffit, fascia, and trim are done at the same time. Insulated vinyl is worth asking about here — a lot of these homes have very little wall insulation.
We serve Somerset and the surrounding Franklin Township communities including Middlebush, East Millstone, Griggstown, Zarephath, and the neighborhoods along Easton Avenue, Hamilton Street, Amwell Road, and JFK Boulevard.
