Common Roofing Problems in East Orange Homes

East Orange’s housing stock creates four recurring roofing problems. First, cracked and curling shingles on aging Colonial-style homes over 60 years old — these roofs have exceeded their expected lifespan and need full replacement, not patching. Second, leaking valleys on steep Tudor-style roofs with complex intersections where debris collects and flashing deteriorates. Third, ponding water on flat-roof apartment complexes built in the 1950s-1970s, where aging EPDM membranes sag between joists and hold standing water after every rain. Fourth, missing or damaged flashing around dormers on older multi-story homes, which is one of the most common sources of hidden leaks in East Orange. Because R&E Roofing is based just minutes away in Orange, we respond quickly to East Orange calls and already know the housing patterns throughout Ampere, Elmwood, Ivy Hill, Highland Avenue, and South Center.
