Roofing and chimney work in Parsippany-Troy Hills
Parsippany-Troy Hills is the most populous municipality in Morris County and one of the most varied places to work on a roof. Residential neighborhoods are dominated by 1950s through 1970s split-levels, ranches and colonials, while the lake communities around Lake Hiawatha and Lake Parsippany carry older cottages that were expanded into year-round homes. Along Route 10, Route 46, I-80 and I-287 the township has one of the largest concentrations of office parks and commercial flat roofs in North Jersey.
Asset Roofing & Chimney handles roof repair, roof replacement and chimney repair across all of Parsippany, from the Troy Hills side to Lake Hiawatha. We work on both steep-slope shingle roofs and flat or low-slope membrane roofs, which matters in a township where many properties have both. Estimates are free, and we are licensed and insured for residential and commercial work.
Housing in Parsippany-Troy Hills
Most of Parsippany was built out between the early 1950s and the late 1970s, so split-levels, ranches, bi-levels and modest colonials on quarter-acre lots are the norm. The lake sections hold smaller, older houses, many of them expanded over the years. Townhouse and garden-apartment complexes are common, and the highway corridors carry large office buildings, hotels and retail with membrane roofs.
Weather and exposure
Parsippany is lower and flatter than the hill towns to its west, but it still sees colder winters and more snow than Bergen County. The lake communities hold moisture and heavy shade, which keeps roofs damp and encourages moss. Open office-park sites are fully exposed to wind, and summer thunderstorms coming across the highways bring short, intense downpours that test flat-roof drainage.
