Westfield NJ roof replacement and repair, seamless gutters, siding replacement. Careful work on older colonials and Tudors.
Westfield's housing stock is older and more architecturally serious than most of Union County — center-hall colonials, Tudors, and shingle-style homes in Wychwood, Stoneleigh Park, Indian Forest, and the neighborhoods around the downtown, with mid-century construction filling in around them. Steep pitches, slate and cedar still in service, dormers, third floors, and mature trees over almost everything.
DGC Roof works on Westfield homes with the care they require: full tear-offs, proper flashing details, and gutters sized for the roof rather than the catalog. Licensed and insured, written estimates, 5-year workmanship warranty. Call (732) 430-5765.
On Westfield's older homes we expect to find plank decking, multiple prior layers, and rotted rafter tails or cornice work behind the gutters. All of that gets addressed at tear-off rather than hidden under new shingles. We install ice-and-water shield at eaves and in valleys, correct ventilation — many of these homes have almost none — and finish with architectural shingles. Slate and cedar replacement handled as well, including an honest cost comparison if you're deciding whether to stay in kind.
The leaks we're called for in Westfield are almost always at details rather than in the field of the roof: valleys on multi-gable colonials, chimney flashing on original masonry, dormer sidewalls, third-floor gable junctions, and skylights. Heavy tree cover also means regular limb-strike damage and shaded slopes with moss growth that holds moisture against the shingles.
Westfield gutters work hard — big roofs, long runs, and a heavy leaf load. We install seamless aluminum formed on site in 5-inch and 6-inch, plus copper and half-round on homes where the architecture calls for it. Because so many of these houses have decorative cornice and fascia detail, gutter replacement here regularly includes rebuilding the wood behind the gutter, which we do rather than hanging new metal on rot.
Siding on a Westfield home has to match a specific look. We install fiber cement, insulated vinyl, and vinyl, and on the older homes fiber cement is usually the right call because it holds a traditional exposure and takes paint cleanly. We repair sheathing, install proper house wrap, and rebuild trim, soffit, and fascia to match the existing profiles.
We serve all of Westfield including Wychwood, Stoneleigh Park, Indian Forest, Brightwood, Manor Park, and the neighborhoods off Central Avenue, Mountain Avenue, Springfield Avenue, and Rahway Avenue. We also serve Garwood, Cranford, Scotch Plains, Fanwood, Mountainside, and Clark.
Yes. That's most of what we do here. Complex rooflines are priced by the roof, not by a per-square average.
