Roofing & Replacement Windows in Glen Rock, NJ
Roofing, replacement windows, and siding for Glen Rock, NJ — period-respectful work on the borough’s 1920s colonials and Tudors.
Glen Rock grew around its twin train stations on the Main and Bergen lines, and the housing tells that story: close to forty-five percent of the borough’s homes were built before 1940, with the typical house dating to the early 1950s. On the older blocks you still find slate roofs and wood-frame windows doing their original job. Those roofs have steep pitches, cut valleys, and detailing that punishes a contractor working from a template. Nine in ten homes are owner-occupied, and it shows in how carefully these houses have been kept.
On a Tudor, the roof is the architecture — every course and flashing line is visible from the sidewalk. We stage carefully, replace what’s failing, and preserve what still has life. Installer certifications from GAF, TAMKO, James Hardie, and VELUX let us stand behind Glen Rock projects with manufacturer warranties as long as 50 years, honest upfront pricing set before we begin, and a 10-year workmanship warranty on all roof installations.
Homestead Roofing began in 1930, when many Glen Rock colonials were barely a decade old. We’re still family-owned and still based right here in Bergen County, working out of our Ridgewood headquarters. Ninety-five years of answering to the same neighbors is a standard no marketing budget can imitate.

From a slipped slate near the stations to a full architectural replacement on a post-war home, every Glen Rock job gets a plan built around the roof’s age and pitch.
Replacement on a pre-war colonial starts under the shingles. We budget decking repair and reworked flashing before the job begins, so the approved figure is the final figure.
Flat and low-slope systems — TPO, PVC, EPDM, metal, coatings — for borough businesses, with maintenance plans that head off membrane failures.
Steep pre-war roofs concentrate wear in valleys, dormers, and chimney flashing. We fix the source and leave the surrounding roof intact.
Wind and ice can strip an aging slate or shingle field quickly. We respond fast with same-day leak mitigation to protect plaster and hardwood below.
An inspection tells you honestly which sections of a ninety-year-old roof are tired, which are sound, and what belongs in next year’s budget.
We install every major material — and on Glen Rock’s original slate roofs, we’ll say plainly when careful repair beats wholesale replacement.
Original wood sashes on a 1920s colonial bleed heat every winter. Our replacement windows restore comfort while keeping the proportions the architecture depends on.
Solid thermal performance with no maintenance — a practical, budget-conscious choice for secondary elevations and post-war homes.
Painted-wood appearance with modern weather resistance, the natural match for Tudor and colonial facades.
Our strongest frames: slim sightlines, maximum glass, and stability that holds square through decades of freeze and thaw.
