Roofing and chimney work in Wantage
Wantage is one of the largest townships in Sussex County by area, stretching across the northern part of the county from the Kittatinny Ridge and High Point State Park on its western side to the hills toward Vernon. It surrounds the Borough of Sussex and has a long dairy-farming history. Today it is a mix of working farmland, older farmhouses and barns, and single-family homes built over recent decades on large rural lots along its county roads.

We are licensed and insured, based in Cliffside Park in Bergen County, and we serve all of North New Jersey.

Housing in Wantage
Wantage's homes include older farmhouses, often with barns and outbuildings nearby, and a large share of single-family homes built from the 1970s onward, including raised ranches, colonials and larger custom homes on acreage. Many newer homes have complex rooflines with multiple gables, hips and valleys. Asphalt shingle is the norm on houses, while barns and agricultural buildings often have metal roofs.
Weather and exposure
Wantage's terrain rises toward the Kittatinny Ridge, and homes on its slopes and on open farmland face strong winds and heavy snow. Snow drifts across fields and onto leeward roof slopes, and winters here are among the longest in New Jersey. Hedgerows and woodlots add shade and limb risk to some properties.
