Roofing & Replacement Windows in Rutherford, NJ

Steep-gable roofing, replacement windows, and siding for Rutherford’s Victorian avenues and the neighborhoods around the Park Avenue downtown.

Turrets, Gables, and Slate: South Bergen's Victorian Showcase

Rutherford wears its architecture out loud. Steep gables, turrets, and original slate crown the tree-lined avenues that run off the Park Avenue downtown and the Williams Center, and well over half the borough’s homes were standing before 1940 — the typical house dates to the mid-1940s. Roofs like these need rigging, staging, and hand-detail work that flat-lot contractors seldom practice, plus flashing fabricated to fit shapes no supplier stocks. This is old-house roofing, and Homestead Roofing has done it since 1930.

Detail Work That Holds Up From the Sidewalk

On a Victorian, every course and every flashing line is visible from the street, so the finish has to be as sound as the system beneath it. Homestead carries installer certifications from GAF, TAMKO, James Hardie, and VELUX, and backs Rutherford projects with manufacturer warranties up to 50 years, honest and upfront pricing set before work begins, and a 10-year workmanship warranty on all roof installations.

A Company as Old as the Borough's Second Roof

Homestead Roofing has been family owned since 1930, operating from our Ridgewood headquarters and based right here in Bergen County. Many Rutherford homes were already forty years old when we opened. Ninety-five years later, the same family name is on the estimate, the truck, and the warranty.

Roofing Services for Rutherford's Historic Homes

From a slipped slate on a turret to a flat roof over a Park Avenue storefront, Homestead handles Rutherford roofing with pitch, period, and access planned from the first visit.

Tear-off and replacement engineered for steep, complex Victorian rooflines, including the custom flashing and decking repairs that century-old framing usually requires — all priced up front.

A flat rooftop with several dome-shaped skylights and a white vent, surrounded by bare trees and some buildings in the background on a cloudy day.

TPO, PVC, EPDM, metal, and coating systems for downtown buildings and the Williams Center district, with maintenance plans that keep membranes tight year-round.

A worker uses a tool to remove old, damaged shingles from a house roof under a blue sky with clouds. Piles of shingles are scattered across the rooftop.

Steep roofs concentrate wear at valleys, dormers, and chimney flashing. We repair the source, safely staged on the sharpest pitches in the borough.

Wind and ice punish exposed gables. We respond quickly with same-day leak mitigation before water reaches original plaster and woodwork.

On a slate or steeply pitched roof, trouble hides where no homeowner can see it. An inspection finds tired valleys and failing flashing while the fix is still small.

Every major material installed to specification — including the slate these houses were designed for, and straight advice on when an original roof should be preserved.
