Roofing and chimney work in Chester Township
Chester Township is one of the most rural municipalities in Morris County, a Highlands landscape of rolling hills, woodland, horse farms and working farms and orchards, with the Black River and Hacklebarney State Park among its natural features. Homes sit on large lots, many of them on acreage, and the township surrounds the historic Chester Borough village at its center.

Housing in Chester Township
Chester Township's housing ranges from historic farmhouses and stone houses to mid-century homes and, most commonly, larger colonials and custom homes from the 1970s onward set on wooded or open lots. Many properties include detached garages, barns, stables and other outbuildings. Larger homes often have complex rooflines, several chimneys and skylights.
Weather and exposure
At Highlands elevations, Chester Township gets cold winters with substantial snow, long-lasting ice and many freeze-thaw cycles. Homes on open farmland and hilltops are exposed to strong wind, while wooded properties deal with shade, moss and falling limbs. Long driveways and rural roads also mean roofs are often out of sight from the house and road, so damage can go unnoticed.
