A compact borough between the Black Horse Pike and Big Timber Creek. Roof replacement on small-lot Capes, twins and post-war ranches.
Runnemede packs roughly eight thousand people into about two square miles. The oldest blocks near Nicholson Road and the Black Horse Pike are 1920s twins and foursquares; the rest filled in with Capes, ranches and modest colonials from the 1940s through the 1960s. Lots are narrow, houses sit close, and a lot of these roofs have already been done once.
Our work on these blocks starts with the party wall and the neighbor’s edge, because a twin roof cannot be half-done well. We tear off to deck, reset the flashing at the shared wall, and vent each attic bay properly. Roof permits in Runnemede are filed with the borough’s own construction office under the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code.

Storm damage, active leaks and fallen trees, with 24/7 phone response.
Where two houses share a roof plane and a party wall, the flashing and the tie-in matter more than the shingle, and half measures leak.
Shared walls between twins need proper counterflashing, not a bead of sealant over the joint.
Narrow setbacks mean staging, dumpsters and gutter protection get planned before the tear-off starts.
Low-slope front porches on the 1920s blocks do better in membrane or standing seam than shingle.
Runnemede Borough’s construction office issues the roof permit and performs the inspection itself.
Same office, same crews, a short drive away.
You can, and people do, but the seam has to be handled properly where the new work meets the old. We flash into the party wall and build a clean termination rather than feathering shingles across it. If your neighbor is close to needing a roof too, doing both at once is cheaper and watertight.
Runnemede Borough does. The borough’s construction office handles the application and the inspection under the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code, and Camden County has no role in it. We file on your behalf and meet the inspector when the roof is finished.
It is almost always algae, common on humid South Jersey roofs and worst on north-facing slopes that stay damp. It stains but does not usually shorten shingle life. Cleaning helps for a while, and if you are replacing anyway, an algae-resistant shingle is worth the small upcharge.
Yes, and it usually needs a different system than the main roof. Shingles are not rated for the pitch on most of those porches, which is why they leak at the wall. We run EPDM or a standing-seam panel and flash it into the siding above.
