Roofing & Replacement Windows in Dumont, NJ
Homestead Roofing installs roofs, replacement windows, and siding on Dumont’s post-war capes and colonials, borough-wide.
Walk any street off Washington Avenue’s small-town business strip and the pattern repeats: modest capes and colonials framed in the 1940s and 50s, roughly the age of the borough’s typical home. Close to half of Dumont’s 18,000-plus residents live in houses built before 1940, and a great many of those roofs are still originals or first replacements. That combination — older decking, undersized ventilation, flashing that predates modern details — is exactly what our crews plan around before a single bundle is lifted.
A cape roof looks simple until you open it up: short eaves, dormer intersections, and knee-wall framing that traps heat and moisture. We assess honestly, price the job upfront, and keep one supervised crew on it start to finish. Homestead holds installer certifications from GAF, TAMKO, James Hardie, and VELUX, so Dumont projects carry factory-backed warranties up to 50 years alongside our own 10-year workmanship warranty on all roof installations.
Homestead Roofing was already two decades into business when Dumont’s capes went up. Family owned since 1930 — 95 years now — and run out of our Ridgewood headquarters a short drive away, we answer for our own work. The estimator who measures your roof belongs to the same company that will take your call about it years from now.

Leaky valley on a 1950s cape or a full tear-off on a Washington Avenue storefront — each Dumont job gets a plan built for that building’s age and framing.
Tear-off and replacement scoped for mid-century framing, with decking checks and corrected ventilation included in the written price so nothing gets discovered halfway through the job.
TPO, PVC, EPDM, metal, and coating systems for Dumont’s business strip, plus maintenance visits that catch membrane seams before water reaches the sales floor.
Cape roofs fail at dormer sidewalls, chimney flashing, and worn valleys. We trace the water to its real entry point and repair the system around it.
Wind and ice move fast on aging shingles. We respond quickly with same-day leak mitigation, then document the damage clearly for you.
If your roof is on its second cycle, an inspection tells you how many winters are left in it — useful information before the ceiling makes the decision for you.
Every major material installed to manufacturer specification, with straight talk about which one earns its cost on a modest Dumont home.
Original wood sash in a 1950s cape rattles, sticks, and bleeds heat. Our replacement windows tighten the house without changing the street’s familiar look.
Efficient, colorfast, and maintenance-free — the practical whole-house upgrade for Dumont capes and colonials on a set budget.
Painted-wood character with none of the rot or scraping, well matched to the borough’s older two-story homes.
Our strongest frames: slim sightlines, more daylight, and no seasonal movement through freeze-thaw winters.
