Local conditions
What we see on Plainfield roofs
Plainfield has more surviving period housing than most cities its size, which means slate, cedar and complex rooflines as well as ordinary shingle work.
Low-slope rear additions
Row and semi-detached homes carry flat rear sections that were often shingled below minimum slope. Those need flat and low-slope systems, not asphalt.
Party-wall and parapet flashing
Shared walls between attached homes are the most common leak path we trace in this housing type, and the hardest to find without attic access.
Access and staging on tight lots
Narrow frontages and street parking mean the dumpster and staging plan gets agreed before the crew arrives, not on the morning.
