Roofing in Trenton

Why Trenton homeowners
call Pro Gen.

Trenton is the state capital, a dense city along the Delaware River with neighborhoods like Mill Hill, Chambersburg, and the West Ward. Much of its housing is 19th and early 20th-century rowhouses, twins, and Victorian homes, many with flat or low-slope roofs. Historic districts preserve some of the city's oldest blocks.

Attached rowhouses and twins with flat or low-slope roofs, plus Victorian and early 20th-century homes with steep gables and slate or shingle.

Every Trenton estimate starts with a drone flight. You get the photos whether or not you hire us, so you know exactly what's up there before you spend a dollar.

Local conditions

What we check on Trenton roofs

  • Flat roof maintenance

    Rowhouses with flat roofs need membrane systems, sound seams, and clear drains to stay watertight.

  • Historic districts

    Trenton has locally designated historic districts, such as Mill Hill, where exterior work goes through the city's historic preservation review.

  • Shared walls

    Attached homes need careful flashing at parapets and party walls so work on one roof does not affect the neighbor.

Trenton questions

Roofing questions from Trenton

How much does a new roof cost in Trenton?

Most full replacements in Trenton land between $7,500 and $22,000 depending on roof size, pitch, layers to remove, and the shingle you choose. Repairs usually run $350 to $1,850. The drone inspection gives you an exact number, free.

Do I need a permit to replace a roof in Trenton, NJ?

Trenton is a city, and its construction office issues the roofing permit. Homes in a local historic district, such as Mill Hill, also need historic preservation review. Pro Gen handles the application, fees, and the final inspection for you.

How long does a roof replacement take in Trenton?

Most homes are torn off, dried-in and shingled in one to two days. Larger or more complex roofs can run a third day. Your roof is never left open overnight.

Can you fix a leak in Trenton today?

Yes. Emergency leak and tarp calls in Trenton are dispatched the same day. We stop the water first, photograph the cause from the air, then quote the permanent fix.

My Trenton rowhouse has a flat roof that keeps leaking. Should I recoat it or replace it?

If the membrane is mostly sound, a coating or targeted repair can extend its life. If it has multiple failures or water under the surface, a new membrane system is usually the better value. Our drone inspection will show which applies.
