Roofing and chimney work in Kinnelon
Kinnelon is a wooded, hilly borough in the northeastern corner of Morris County, with much of its land in forest and steep terrain. Its best-known residential areas are built around lakes, including the private Smoke Rise community and the Fayson Lakes section, and most homes sit on large, tree-covered lots. The housing is generally larger and newer than in the older boroughs along the rail lines, with many custom and contemporary homes built from the 1960s onward.

Housing in Kinnelon
Kinnelon's homes are mostly single-family houses on large wooded lots, ranging from 1950s and 1960s lake-community houses to larger custom colonials, contemporaries and estate-style homes from the 1970s through the 2000s. Rooflines tend to be complex, with multiple gables, hips, dormers, skylights and tall masonry or stone chimneys. Asphalt shingle is the most common roof covering, with cedar shake and some slate or metal on individual homes.
Weather and exposure
Kinnelon's steep, forested terrain means heavy tree cover over most roofs, with leaf and needle debris, shade and moss on north-facing slopes, and the risk of falling limbs in storms. Elevation varies considerably across the borough, and homes on ridges and hillsides take more wind. Winters are cold and snowy, and lake sections hold additional moisture.
