Local Roofing In Vincentown

The porch is the weak point

Vincentown sits on the South Branch of the Rancocas in Southampton Township, and its Main Street is a listed National Register district with about a hundred and sixty contributing buildings across ninety-two acres. The stock runs Federal through Italianate: three-story frame houses, one of them with a cupola, deep front porches, and rear kitchen wings added when the branch line still hauled marl and milk out of town.
Those porches and wings are almost flat, and shingle cannot shed on them. We run a single-ply membrane there, tie it into the pitched roof above with a proper step and counterflashing, and leave the main slopes in architectural asphalt. The permit goes to the Southampton Township construction office under the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code.

Roofing In Vincentown

Victorian porches shed water badly by design.

A deep Victorian porch runs at a pitch too shallow for shingle, and the house wall it ties into is where most of these leaks actually start.

Vincentown FAQ

Common questions

The flat roof over my porch leaks every spring. Can it be shingled?

The flat roof over my porch leaks every spring. Can it be shingled?

No. Shingle needs pitch to shed, and on a near-flat deck water sits at the laps until it finds a nail. A seamed single-ply membrane such as EPDM or TPO, flashed up the house wall, is the right system there, and it can go on at the same time as the main roof.

Southampton Township. Vincentown is a community within the township rather than its own municipality, so the Southampton Township construction office handles roofing permits under the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code, and we pull it and meet the inspector ourselves.

A box gutter is built into the roof edge itself rather than hung off the fascia, and older Main Street houses often have them. When the lining fails, water runs inside the cornice instead of outside it, so we either reline the trough or convert it to a hung gutter and tell you which we would do.

Twenty-five to thirty years for the shingle field, the same as anywhere. What shortens it on an old house is poor attic airflow cooking the deck from below, plus flashing details carried over from the last job. We correct both at replacement so the new roof gets its full run.
