Roofing and chimney work in Roselle
Roselle is a borough between Elizabeth, Linden and Cranford, remembered as one of the first communities lit by Thomas Edison's overhead electric wiring system. Its streets are lined with early-twentieth-century foursquares, colonials and Dutch colonials, along with capes, two-families and some apartment buildings, and part of Warinanco Park lies within its borders.

Housing in Roselle
Much of Roselle was built between about 1900 and the 1950s. American foursquares with hipped roofs and dormers, gable-front colonials, Dutch colonials and bungalows dominate the older streets, with capes and ranches from the post-war years filling other sections. Two-families and small apartment buildings appear throughout, and the commercial streets have low flat-roofed buildings.
Weather and exposure
Roselle is flat and low, with mature street trees over many blocks and moderate wind exposure. Nor'easters bring wind-driven rain, hipped roofs collect leaves along their hip lines and in dormer valleys, and north eaves form ice dams in cold stretches. Freeze-thaw cycles work on the brick chimneys that serve nearly every older home.
