Roofing and chimney work in Union
Union Township lies in northwestern Hunterdon County along the Interstate 78 corridor, west of Clinton and near Spruce Run Reservoir. It is hilly, partly wooded country at the southern edge of the Highlands, with small villages such as Pattenburg, farmland on the lower ground and homes scattered along ridges and back roads. Highway access has brought some commercial buildings near the interchanges, but most of the township remains rural and residential.

Housing in Union
Union Township's housing is mostly detached homes: older farmhouses and village homes, and ranches, capes, split-levels and colonials built from the mid-1900s onward on rural and semi-rural lots. Some commercial and service buildings near the highway have flat or low-slope roofs. Asphalt shingle dominates on houses, with metal on some barns and outbuildings. Wood stoves and fireplaces are common.
Weather and exposure
Elevation and open ridges define Union Township's weather exposure. Homes on the ridges and hilltops take strong wind, and storms crossing the reservoir and the open highway corridor arrive with little to slow them. Snow lasts longer on the higher ground, freeze-thaw is frequent, and wooded lots add limbs and leaf litter.
