Roof Repair for Hanover homes and buildings
Hanover Township roof repairs split between postwar homes in Whippany and Cedar Knolls and a large stock of commercial and industrial flat roofs. On homes, leaks usually come from aging flashing at chimneys and sidewalls, cracked pipe boots, worn valleys and the transitions on houses that have been expanded.
On commercial and industrial buildings, large membrane roofs with internal drains, rooftop equipment, skylights and roof hatches are the norm. Wind exposure on open sites adds membrane uplift and loose flashing at roof edges. Asset Roofing & Chimney repairs both residential and commercial roofs.
Hanover housing
Hanover Township's residential areas are mostly postwar single-family homes: capes, ranches, split-levels and colonials from the 1950s through the 1970s, with some older houses near the Whippany River and newer townhouse developments. The commercial side includes office buildings, corporate campuses, warehouses, light-industrial buildings and hangars and related buildings around the airport, most with low-slope roofs.
Weather & exposure
The township's open commercial land and airport area are exposed to wind, and large flat roofs there take the full brunt of storms. Residential neighborhoods have mature trees that drop leaves into gutters and valleys. Low-lying areas along the Whippany River hold moisture. Winters bring snow and freeze-thaw cycles typical of central Morris County.
Repair or replace? What we tell Hanover homeowners
For homes, we repair the specific detail at fault and replace disturbed shingles with matching material. If the roof is near the end of its life, we will tell you plainly so you can compare the cost of repair with replacement.
For commercial and industrial roofs, we inspect edges, drains, penetrations, hatches and skylights, then the membrane field. We provide written findings and can address wind damage, replace hatches and repair membranes, and we document storm damage for insurance claims.
