Roofing and chimney work in Stockton
Stockton is one of the smallest boroughs in Hunterdon County, a historic village on the Delaware River across the bridge from Centre Bridge, Pennsylvania. The Delaware and Raritan Canal feeder and its towpath run through town, and the Prallsville Mills complex stands at its northern edge. The borough is a handful of streets of 1800s and early-1900s homes, a few commercial and inn buildings, and hillsides rising behind the river.

Housing in Stockton
Stockton's housing is predominantly 1800s and early-1900s: frame, brick and stone homes on small village lots, many with steep roofs, porches and old chimneys, along with a few later homes. A small number of older commercial and inn buildings sit near the center. Asphalt shingle covers most roofs, with some slate and metal on older buildings.
Weather and exposure
Stockton sits low in the Delaware valley beside the river and canal, with wooded slopes behind it. Humidity and shade keep roofs and masonry damp, moss grows on shaded slopes, and mature trees drop leaves and limbs. Winters bring snow and freeze-thaw that test old mortar and flashing.
