Roofing and chimney work in Waldwick
Waldwick is a compact northwest Bergen borough built around its railroad station, with a small commercial district near the tracks and residential streets of modest single-family homes spreading out from there. Most of the houses are post-war capes, ranches, split-levels and colonials on smaller lots than the neighboring townships, with some older homes closer to the center. It is a town of practical, well-kept houses, and the roofs and chimneys reflect that.
Asset Roofing & Chimney is based in Cliffside Park and serves Waldwick with asphalt shingle roof repair and replacement, flat-roof work on the commercial buildings near the station, and full chimney service. We are licensed and insured, and we give free written estimates.
Housing in Waldwick
Waldwick's housing is mainly single-family homes from the post-war decades: Cape Cods, many with added dormers, ranches, split-levels and colonials on modest lots. Some older houses stand closer to the railroad and the original center of town. The small commercial district has one- and two-story buildings with flat roofs. Most homes have asphalt shingle roofs and a single brick chimney.
Weather and exposure
Waldwick is inland and sheltered from the wind exposure of the eastern part of the county. Its exposure comes from mature trees that now shade many of the post-war streets, small brooks whose low-lying banks stay damp, and winter freeze-thaw. Cape Cods with finished upper floors are especially prone to ice dams because heat escapes through the knee walls and sloped ceilings into the roof.
