Roofing and chimney work in Bloomingdale
Bloomingdale is a small borough at the edge of the New Jersey Highlands, where the Pequannock River valley gives way to the wooded ridges that run north toward Ringwood and West Milford. Much of the borough is forest and protected land, including part of Norvin Green State Forest, and its homes sit on streets that climb from the valley floor toward lake communities such as Kampfe Lake and Lake Iosco.
That mix of valley neighborhoods, hillside lots and lake houses shapes the roofing and chimney work here. Asset Roofing & Chimney serves Bloomingdale from our base in Cliffside Park, Bergen County. We repair and replace shingle and flat roofs, install skylights and roof hatches, and handle chimney inspection, repair, relining and rebuilds. We are licensed and insured, and estimates are free.
Housing in Bloomingdale
Bloomingdale's housing is mostly single-family: early and mid-twentieth century capes and bungalows in the older valley sections, postwar ranches and raised ranches on the hillsides, and former seasonal lake cottages that have been winterized and enlarged over the years. Newer townhome developments add attached roofs. Many homes heat with oil or gas and have brick or block chimneys, and wood stoves are common in the lake and hillside houses.
Weather and exposure
Bloomingdale sits higher and colder than the southern part of the county, so snow stays on roofs longer and ice dams are a regular winter concern. Dense hardwood forest surrounds most streets, which means falling limbs, heavy leaf loads and shaded, damp roof slopes. Lake houses take wind off open water, and hillside homes are exposed to gusts during nor'easters and summer thunderstorms.
