Trenton is the NJ state capital with a historic core that includes the State House complex, the Old Barracks, and substantial 1860s-1900s residential and commercial. Housing stock runs heavy on dense brick rowhouses and 1890s-1920s wood-frame two-families in the surrounding wards. Our Trenton work mixes institutional flat-roof on government buildings, restoration on the historic core, and high-volume residential.
Insurance work is steady — windstorms regularly damage the older rowhouse stock, and the city has aged enough infrastructure that leak detection on shared-wall properties matters.
