Fanwood is a small, walkable Union County borough wrapped by Scotch Plains, with a charming Victorian-era core around its historic train station. The housing is older than the surrounding suburbs — late-1800s and early-1900s Victorians and Foursquares near downtown, 1920s–1950s colonials and Capes filling out the rest of the borough.
Fanwood roofing leans toward steeper, more detailed older roofs — architectural-shingle tear-offs on the colonials and Capes, and careful slate and complex-flashing work on the Victorians near the station. We register every install for the manufacturer warranty and back it with our lifetime workmanship coverage.

Fanwood's train-station area includes a Victorian-era historic district; for visible work on or near contributing properties we confirm any review requirements with the borough before starting.
Fanwood's older, steeper roofs and mature street trees make leaf-clogged valleys and gutters and winter ice dams the most common cold-season issues we see in the borough.
