Washington Borough is a small, historic town in rural Warren County, built up around the 19th-century Morris Canal and the railroad. The housing is older than most of our service area — Victorian and early-1900s homes near the walkable downtown, with 1900s–1960s housing filling out the borough and farmland and country residential just beyond it in the surrounding townships.
Roofing here mixes steep, detailed older roofs with practical small-town reroofing — architectural-shingle tear-offs on the early-1900s homes, slate and complex flashing on the Victorians, and metal on the surrounding farmhouses and outbuildings. Like the rest of northwestern New Jersey, Washington's roofs are built for real winter — snow load and ice dams, not summer heat, are the design problem.
What We Work On in Washington
Victorian and early-1900s homes near downtown, with 1900s–1960s housing through the borough; surrounding farmland and country residential with farmhouses and metal-roofed outbuildings. Older low-slope commercial along the Washington Avenue / Route 57 corridor. Northwestern-NJ snow load and freeze-thaw drive the spec.

Washington sits in northwestern NJ's snow belt; we extend ice & water shield past the code minimum and detail eaves and valleys for heavy snow load and ice-dam resistance.
In the northwestern-NJ snow belt, Washington's winters bring real snow load and ice-dam exposure; our reroofs here prioritize eave and valley protection over the summer-storm concerns that dominate downstate.
