Roofing for Montclair homes

Montclair covers about 6.2 square miles of Essex County and has roughly 16,050 homes and apartments. That’s a mature housing stock, with more than 70% of them built before 1960. It’s a mix of owner-occupied homes and rentals, and we work with both homeowners and property owners here.

Montclair’s complex roof designs—featuring steep pitches, turrets, eyebrow dormers, and multiple chimney stacks—require expert flashing craftsmanship and high-grade underlayment. ALL PRO delivers meticulous roof repairs, copper flashing detailing, and full replacements that preserve the character of Montclair’s historic neighborhoods.

What Montclair homeowners should know

Based on the age and type of homes in Montclair and the weather it gets.
  • Rolls of ice and water shield membrane on old plank decking during a roof replacement

    Older homes, careful roofing

    Half of the homes in Montclair were built before 1938, and about 59% date to 1939 or earlier. Homes this age often sit on board (plank) decking rather than plywood, may have two or more layers of old shingles, and have steep pitches, dormers, and chimneys that all need careful flashing. A replacement here usually means tearing off to the boards and replacing any that have rotted.

  • New torch-down roofing being rolled out across a flat roof

    City weather and flat roofs

    In Montclair, wind-driven rain, summer heat on flat roofs, and ponding water after heavy storms are the most common roof problems. Keeping drains clear and checking seams and flashing after big storms prevents most leaks.

Roof repair in Montclair

A good repair can add years to a roof, and a bad one just moves the leak. Our Montclair roof repairs focus on the parts that fail first: flashing, valleys, pipe boots, vents, and roof edges. We replace what’s damaged rather than patching over it, match shingles as closely as possible, and check the decking underneath. Right now any roof repair is up to 20% off.

Roof replacement in Montclair

A roof replacement in Montclair starts with a full tear-off down to the deck, so nothing is hidden under the new roof. We inspect the decking and replace soft or damaged boards, install a waterproof underlayment, put in new flashing at every wall, valley, and penetration, and finish with quality architectural shingles such as GAF Timberline HDZ. Ventilation is part of the job, and the debris is hauled away when we’re done.

Storm damage & 24/7 emergency roofing

Wind-lifted shingles, torn flashing, and branch punctures can let water into a Montclair home long before you see a stain. After a major storm, we inspect the whole roof, not just the obvious damage, and repair shingles, flashing, decking, and framing as needed. For active leaks, our emergency line is open 24/7 for tarping and urgent repairs.

Skylights, flashing & ventilation

The details make or break a roof. On Montclair homes we pay close attention to skylight flashing, valleys, step flashing along walls, and pipe boots, the spots most likely to leak. When a roof is replaced, it’s also the best time to improve attic ventilation with ridge vents or solar attic vents.

FAQ

Montclair roofing questions

Still have a question? Call (201) 773-6635 or email info@allprosnj.com.

Do you offer roof repair and replacement in Montclair?

Yes. Montclair is part of our Essex County service area. We handle roof repair, full roof replacement, storm damage repair, and 24/7 emergency calls, with free on-site estimates.

How old are the homes in Montclair?

According to U.S. Census Bureau estimates, the median home in Montclair was built in 1938. About 73% of homes were built before 1960 and about 9% since 2000. Age matters for roofing because it affects the decking, the number of old layers, and the details that need flashing.

Does an older home in Montclair need a full tear-off?

We recommend it. Tearing off every old layer is the only way to check the board decking underneath and replace rotted boards before the new roof goes on.

How much does a new roof cost in Montclair?

Complete roof replacements start at $6,500. The price depends on the size and pitch of your roof, layers to remove, decking repairs, and materials. New roofs are currently up to 20% off, and we’ll beat any written quote.

Can you just repair my roof instead of replacing it?

Often, yes. If the problem is limited to one area and the rest of the roof is sound, a repair makes sense. We’ll tell you honestly which option is the better value for your Montclair home.

Do you offer any discounts?

Yes. New roofs and roof repairs are currently up to 20% off, veterans receive 10% off, and we’ll beat any written quote.

Will you help with my insurance claim?

We provide a written estimate that describes the damage and the repair, which you can share with your insurer. Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your insurance company.
