Roofing & Replacement Windows in Leonia, NJ
Roofing, replacement windows, and siding for Leonia, NJ — period-aware work on the borough’s 1910s–30s colonials and Dutch colonials.
Nearly six in ten Leonia homes were built before 1940, and the typical house here dates to the mid-1940s — one of the oldest housing profiles in Bergen County. The side streets off Broad Avenue, in the borough that once housed a working artists’ colony, are lined with colonials and Dutch colonials from the 1910s through the 1930s. Gambrel slopes, dormer cheeks, and original decking all behave differently than modern framing does. Homestead Roofing has been working on houses of exactly this vintage since 1930.
A Dutch colonial punishes shortcuts: the transition where a gambrel breaks pitch is where cheap work leaks first. We stage properly, rebuild flashing rather than caulk it, and match materials to the era of the house. Our installer certifications from GAF, TAMKO, James Hardie, and VELUX carry manufacturer warranties up to 50 years, with upfront honest pricing and a 10-year workmanship warranty on all roof installations.
Homestead Roofing opened in 1930, while Leonia’s last pre-war blocks were still being finished. We remain family owned, still headquartered in Ridgewood and based right here in Bergen County. Ninety-five years of local accountability means the warranty comes from people who will still be reachable at the same number.

From a dormer leak on a 1920s colonial to a full replacement with new decking, Leonia work is planned around period detail and the way these roofs were originally framed.
Tear-off and replacement on pre-war colonials, with decking repair, ventilation correction, and custom flashing priced before the first course comes off.
Low-slope and flat systems — TPO, PVC, EPDM, metal, and coatings — for buildings along Broad Avenue, with maintenance plans that keep seams tight year-round.
Gambrel transitions, dormer sidewalls, and chimney flashing are where Leonia roofs give up first. We repair the actual failure, not the water stain below it.
Fast response to wind, ice, and heavy rain, with same-day temporary leak mitigation to keep water out of century-old plaster and trim.
On a house from the 1920s, an inspection is the cheapest planning tool available — it tells you what is tired now and what can wait.
Every major roofing material, installed to specification — including the slate and cedar originals still found on Leonia’s older streets, which we will tell you honestly when to preserve.
Original sashes in a pre-war colonial leak far more heat than owners expect. Our replacements hold the period proportions of Leonia’s streetscape while ending the drafts.
Reliable performance with no upkeep — a sound, budget-conscious choice for secondary elevations and rear additions.
The painted-wood look Leonia’s colonials were designed with, without rot, swelling, or repainting.
Our strongest frames: narrow sightlines, maximum glass, and stability through every freeze-thaw cycle.
