Roofing and chimney work in Roselle Park
Roselle Park is a compact, densely built borough with a station on the Raritan Valley Line, bordered by Union Township, Kenilworth, Cranford, Roselle and Elizabeth. Its blocks are lined with early- and mid-twentieth-century colonials, capes, bungalows and two-families on narrow lots, many with a detached garage at the back of the driveway.

Housing in Roselle Park
Roselle Park's housing is mostly from roughly the 1910s through the 1950s: gable-front and side-gable colonials, capes with dormers, bungalows and two-family houses, set close together on narrow lots. Detached one- and two-car garages with their own small roofs are common. Brick chimneys from the coal and oil era serve most older homes, and the commercial streets carry low buildings with flat roofs.
Weather and exposure
The borough is flat with moderate wind exposure and street trees over many blocks. Houses sit only a few feet apart, so snow, ice and gutter overflow from one roof can land on the next, and shaded side walls between houses stay damp. Nor'easters bring wind-driven rain, and freeze-thaw cycles work on chimneys built close to the side property line.
