Roofing and chimney work in Peapack-Gladstone
Peapack-Gladstone is a small Somerset Hills borough made up of two historic villages, Peapack and Gladstone, set among rolling hills, woods and open pasture. Gladstone is the end of the line for the NJ Transit Gladstone Branch, and both village centers have older homes and small commercial buildings close to the road. Beyond the villages the borough opens into large estate properties and farmland, many with barns, stables and carriage houses alongside the main house.

Housing in Peapack-Gladstone
Peapack-Gladstone's housing includes 19th- and early-20th-century village houses with steep roofs, porches and brick chimneys; large estate homes on acreage, some with slate or cedar roofs and several masonry chimneys; and barns, stables, carriage houses and other outbuildings of varying age. Mid-century and newer single-family homes fill in around the villages. Asphalt shingle is common on the village and newer homes, while slate, cedar and metal appear more often on estate houses and farm buildings.
Weather and exposure
Elevation and open land shape the exposure. Homes on hilltops and next to open pasture take wind with little to slow it, while wooded sections drop limbs and leaves and keep roofs damp. Winters here are colder and snowier than in the lower parts of the county, with frequent freeze-thaw cycles on masonry and ice dams at the eaves of older homes. Low ground along the local brooks is more humid.
