Roofing and chimney work in Fairfield
Fairfield occupies the northwestern corner of Essex County, with the Passaic River along its western edge and Route 46 running through it. Much of its land is given over to industrial parks, offices and warehouses, and Essex County Airport is located in the township. Residential areas are mostly post-war ranches, split-levels, capes and colonials, with low ground near the river that has a history of flooding.

We specialize in shingle and flat roofing and full chimney service, and we are licensed and insured. We are based in Cliffside Park in Bergen County, and estimates are free.
Housing in Fairfield
Fairfield's building stock has two distinct sides. Residential neighborhoods are mostly 1950s to 1970s ranches, split-levels, bi-levels, capes and colonials, many now on their second or third roof, with brick chimneys serving a fireplace and furnace. Alongside them, a large share of the township is commercial and industrial: low-rise offices, warehouses, light manufacturing and flex buildings with large flat roofs, rooftop HVAC, skylights and roof hatches.
Weather and exposure
Fairfield is generally flat to gently rolling, with large open areas around the industrial parks and airport where wind moves unobstructed across wide roofs. Low ground near the Passaic River and its tributaries has flooded in major storms, which affects lower levels and the base of chimneys more than roofs. Large flat roofs collect water during heavy downpours, and freeze-thaw cycles work on parapets, coping and masonry.
