Serving Ridgewood, NJ
Your local roofing and siding contractor
Ridgewood has some of the most architecturally serious housing stock in Bergen County, and it is the kind of village where a badly executed roof is visible from the street and stays visible for thirty years. All Elite Roofing & Siding works throughout the village, from The Heights and Upper Ridgewood down through Brookside and the neighborhoods around downtown.
Ridgewood's 25,979 residents live across 5.74 square miles organized into unusually well-defined neighborhoods: Upper Ridgewood, The Heights, Salem Ridge, Brookside, The Lawns, Floral Park, Scrabbletown, The Old Country Club, and The View among them. The Heights was developed between the 1890s and 1930, and the village holds properties on the National Register including homes dating to roughly 1767 through 1810, plus the Paramus Reformed Church Historic District, first established in 1725 with its current building from 1800. This is period housing with steep pitches, deep eaves, dormers, and real architectural detail.

What we watch for here
Local conditions that decide how long a roof lasts
Steep, complex, high-visibility roofs are the norm in Ridgewood, and they demand a different approach than a simple gable. Steep pitch means staging and fall protection add time. Complex rooflines mean more valleys, more flashing transitions, and more places for a shortcut to become a leak in three years. On period homes we pay particular attention to matching the visual weight of the original roof. An architectural shingle that looks correct on a 1960s ranch can look badly wrong on a 1910 home in The Heights.

These are averages from completed projects, not quotes. Final pricing depends on the size and pitch of the roof, the square footage of the walls, the material you choose, and what we find once the old layer comes off. Replacement figures include tear-off and disposal; new-build installation costs less because there is nothing to remove. Every estimate is free and written after an on-site inspection.
Permits in Ridgewood
Ridgewood requires a construction permit for roofing and siding replacement through the village building department, per the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code. Homes in or adjacent to a designated historic district can carry additional review requirements, and we flag that during the estimate rather than after the material is ordered.
We carry New Jersey Home Improvement Contractor License #13VH12314700 and full liability and workers' compensation insurance.
Ridgewood questions
What Ridgewood homeowners ask us
Do you work on historic homes in Ridgewood?
Yes. Ridgewood has homes on the National Register dating from the late 1700s and neighborhoods like The Heights built between the 1890s and 1930. We match the visual weight and profile of the original roof and flag any historic district review requirement before ordering material.
How much does a roof replacement cost in Ridgewood?
Our average is $8,857.34, but Ridgewood runs above that more often than not. Steep pitch, multiple dormers, deep valleys, and larger footprints all add labor. We walk the roof and put the real number in writing for free.
What shingle works best on a period Ridgewood home?
Usually a dimensional architectural shingle with enough shadow line to read correctly against period detailing. We are GAF certified, so we can install and register premium GAF systems for full manufacturer warranty coverage, and we will show you samples on your actual roof before you commit.
