Roofing and chimney work in Pohatcong
Pohatcong Township occupies the southwest corner of Warren County, where the Musconetcong River meets the Delaware just south of Phillipsburg. It is a township of contrasts: retail and commercial buildings along Route 22, Interstate 78 crossing the township toward Pennsylvania, rail lines along the river, and beyond them farmland, wooded slopes and small river hamlets. Pohatcong Creek runs through the township on its way to the Delaware.

Housing in Pohatcong
Pohatcong's homes include older farmhouses and 1800s and early-1900s houses in the river hamlets and along the old roads, mid-century capes and ranches near the Phillipsburg and Alpha borders, and later subdivisions on the higher ground. Commercial buildings along Route 22 carry large flat or low-slope roofs. Asphalt shingle dominates on homes, and older houses have brick chimneys, some serving wood stoves.
Weather and exposure
Low ground along the Delaware and Musconetcong is damp and foggy, and river valley air keeps roofs and masonry wet longer. Open farmland and the higher slopes take wind with little shelter. Large commercial flat roofs collect snow and meltwater through cold winters, and freeze-thaw cycling works on roof seams and old brick alike.
