Roofing & Exteriors

Roofs, siding and cornices for Jersey City's older homes.

Most of the houses we work on are 100 years old or more. The outside takes the beating first. We fix it the right way, with a written scope, a clean site and one person you can call.

Cornice Restoration

The cornice is what makes a Jersey City row house look like a Jersey City row house. A lot of them are rotting, rusting, leaking or held together with old patches. We repair them and rebuild them so they look right and keep water out.

  • Wood and metal cornice repair
  • Rebuilding rotted brackets, dentils and trim
  • Replacing missing pieces to match the original
  • Flashing and roof tie-in at the cornice
  • Prep and paint
  • Lift and scaffold access for tall facades
