Roofing and chimney work in Clinton
The Town of Clinton is a historic river town on the South Branch of the Raritan, best known for the Red Mill and the stone mill across the water that houses the Hunterdon Art Museum, facing each other over the dam and falls. A walkable downtown of 19th-century commercial buildings sits beside the river, with streets of Victorian and early-1900s homes climbing the slopes behind it. The town is separate from the much larger Clinton Township that surrounds it, and sits close to the junction of Interstate 78 and Route 31.

Housing in Clinton
Clinton's housing is centered on 19th-century and early-1900s homes, many Victorian, with steep roofs, porches and brick chimneys, on hillside streets around the downtown. Later homes and some attached housing fill in toward the town's edges. The downtown has older commercial buildings with low-slope roofs and parapets, and commercial properties near the highway interchanges add flat roofs of more recent construction.
Weather and exposure
Clinton sits in the South Branch valley, where homes near the river face moisture and shade, and streets climbing the slopes behind downtown are more open to wind. Winters bring snow and freeze-thaw cycling that works on flat roofs, old masonry and gutters. Mature trees on the older streets drop limbs in thunderstorms, and low-lying ground along the river is subject to flooding in severe storms.
