Roofing and chimney work in Kenilworth
Kenilworth is a small borough in central Union County, bordered by Cranford, Union Township and Roselle Park, with the Garden State Parkway along its edge and Galloping Hill Golf Course, a county park course, partly within its boundaries. It combines tight residential streets of post-war homes with a sizable commercial and industrial area, including a large pharmaceutical research campus and light industrial buildings.

Housing in Kenilworth
Kenilworth's homes are mostly modest capes, ranches, colonials and split-levels from the 1940s through the 1960s, with some earlier houses and two-families, many expanded with dormers, second stories and rear additions. Asphalt shingle roofs predominate. A significant share of the borough's land is commercial and industrial, with office, laboratory, warehouse and light manufacturing buildings carrying large flat roofs and rooftop mechanical equipment.
Weather and exposure
Kenilworth is flat with moderate street-tree cover, so wind exposure is moderate and debris is lighter than in the heavily wooded towns. Open areas around the golf course and the larger commercial sites give wind a clear run across flat roofs. Nor'easters and summer thunderstorms bring wind-driven rain, and low-pitched post-war roofs form ice dams at the eaves in cold stretches.
