South Plainfield homes and their roofs
South Plainfield in Middlesex County is a classic post-war suburb of Capes, ranches, and split-levels. Many homes are on original roofs from the 1990s and original bathrooms from the 1960s, and they are ready for both.
Cape roofs: steep, with lots of flashing
South Plainfield Capes have steep roofs, dormers, and a lot of wall-to-roof flashing, and the finished half-story often has little attic ventilation. That combination causes ice dams and leaks. We fix the flashing and ventilation, not just the shingles.
Ranch roofs
Ranches have long, low roofs that are straightforward to replace, but they need balanced ventilation to keep the attic from overheating. We add ridge vent and intake as part of the job.
Split-level roof lines
Split-levels have several roof sections meeting at different heights. Those intersections need careful step flashing and cricket work, and it's where most split-level leaks start.
South Plainfield pricing
Most South Plainfield roof replacements run $9,000 to $18,000 for architectural shingles. Adding vinyl siding typically brings a full exterior package to $28,000 to $48,000.
