Roofing and chimney work in Pequannock
Pequannock Township, which includes Pompton Plains, sits on the flat valley floor in the northeast corner of Morris County, bounded on several sides by the Pequannock and Pompton rivers. Unlike the hilly lake towns to the west, it is level, open and densely built with post-war single-family homes, and its low-lying sections near the rivers are known for flooding. Route 23 carries a commercial corridor of retail and service buildings with flat roofs.

Housing in Pequannock
Most of Pequannock's homes were built from the late 1940s through the 1960s: capes, ranches, split-levels and modest colonials on regular suburban lots, many expanded with dormers, second stories or rear additions. Some older farmhouses and early-1900s homes remain, and there are townhouse and senior-oriented communities. Route 23 has strip retail and service buildings with low-slope roofs.
Weather and exposure
The flat river valley gives Pequannock less shelter from wind than the wooded hill towns, and storms that move down the valley can strip shingles from open lots. Proximity to the Pompton and Pequannock rivers raises humidity, and low areas are prone to flooding. Mature yard trees are common, and winters bring regular snow and ice.
