A paper-mill village that burned in 1914 and never came back. If your mail says Harrisville, your house is in Bass River Township.
Harrisville is a ruin. The paper-mill village burned in 1914, and what remains sits in Wharton State Forest about six miles northwest of New Gretna, as walls and foundations rather than houses. If your address reads Harrisville, your house stands somewhere in Bass River Township, out on the lanes off Route 679 and toward the Wading River, in one of the emptiest corners of Burlington County.
Working out there is a logistics problem as much as a roofing one. Sand roads, long driveways, no nearby supply house. We stage material and a container on site, run the job straight through, and clean up thoroughly. Permits go to the Bass River Township construction office under the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code.

Shingle, tile, metal and flat roofing for homes and townhomes across the area.

Houses this far out sit under continuous pine with sand underneath, so the debris load on the roof and the difficulty of getting there are both part of the job.
Material and container placed for sand lanes and long driveways.
The roof comes off and goes back on in one run, not across two visits.
Needles cleared from valleys and gutters before the crew leaves.

Same office, same crews, a short drive away.
Not any more. It was a company town around a paper mill until fire destroyed it in 1914, and the ruins now sit inside Wharton State Forest. The name survives as a locality and on some addresses, but the municipality that governs the area, and issues your permit, is Bass River Township.
The Bass River Township construction office, under the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code. New Jersey construction permits are municipal, so Burlington County has no part in a residential re-roof. We pull the permit under our registration, 13VH14277900, and meet the inspector when the work is done.
Yes, with the access worked out beforehand. We walk the driveway before setting a date so the container and the material truck go where they can actually reach, and we schedule around wet weather because sand lanes soften. Call the Cherry Hill office at (856) 519-0640.
Debris and damp. Needles pack into valleys and gutters, hold water against the shingle, and start the moss that lifts the course edges above it. Clearing the valleys, trimming what hangs over the roof, and running balanced attic ventilation are what actually extend the life out here.
