Roofing Contractor in Passaic NJ
/passaic-nj
Four Seasons Roofing and Construction is the exterior contractor Passaic owners call for everything above the foundation, from a leak in a top-floor unit to a full tear-off on a flat rear roof. Our shop sits a few blocks over the line at 38 Speer Ave in Clifton, so a Botany Village two-family or a flat section off Monroe St is a short run, not a half-day trip. Call (862) 318-3997 and a person picks up around the clock. Every job is licensed and insured, and every estimate comes back to you in writing.
We Find the Real Leak
On a Passaic flat roof the stain is rarely under the failure. We probe and photograph the membrane and the parapet before we name a price.
Minutes From the City
We are based right over the Clifton line, so active water gets a same-day look and small problems get caught while they are still small.
Built for Landlords
Timestamped before-and-after photos, a written scope a property manager can file, and tenant coordination so an out-of-state owner is not chasing access.

Why Passaic Roofs Fail the Way They Do
Passaic packs more roof per block than almost any city in the county. The 07055 housing stock went up during the manufacturing boom that followed the Dundee Dam and Dundee Canal in the 1860s and the textile years that built Botany Worsted Mills, so most of these homes are pre-war two and three-family houses set tight to the lot line for working families. The signature detail here is a pitched front roof that dumps its water onto a flat rear roof, two different materials meeting exactly where the water concentrates. That seam is where a large share of this city's leaks begin, and from the dense rows of Botany Village to the Passaic Park blocks and the older stock down toward Main Ave, structures sit close enough that one roof's runoff ends up in the neighbor's plaster.
Most of that roof area rides on modified bitumen and rubber, and flat roofs fail quietly. A flat roof can look tired for years and still be repairable, or look passable and be saturated underneath, which is why we never eyeball it from the hatch. The parapet walls that ring these roofs soak rain from three sides and freeze. The internal drains and scuppers clog with leaves off Main Ave and turn a sound roof into a bathtub. Meanwhile the older gabled fronts still carry their own shingle fields and chimney flashing on brick that has been weathering since the mill era. Each of those is a different repair, and we carry every one of them under one roof.
The Full Exterior, Not Just the Roof
A roof problem in Passaic rarely travels alone, and the same crew that handles the membrane handles the brick and the siding it touches. Here is how the work breaks down on the building types you actually see on these blocks.
- Roofing for the pitched-to-flat multi-family rooflines that define the city
- Flat roof repair on the rubber and modified bitumen over rear additions
- Roof leak repair that traces water to the entry point, not the ceiling stain
- Chimney repair and repointing on mortar that has weathered for decades
- Masonry for the parapet walls and brick on the prewar stock
- Siding and windows and doors on houses built wall to wall
What Every Passaic Job Looks Like
The order is the same whether you own the building or manage it from another state. No surprises after the ladder goes up.
We walk the whole envelope first
Before anyone names a number we get on the roof, probe the flat sections, and check the parapets, drains, and chimney flashing. On a Passaic two-family that often means finding the failure on the rear addition that nobody mentioned, because that is where the pitched front roof dumps its water.
You get the scope and the photos in writing
We hand back a written scope and timestamped photos of what we found. A property manager can file it, an insurer can read it, and an owner two states away can see the roof without flying in. The price is written, not a verbal ballpark that drifts.
Our own crew does the work
The people who quoted the Botany Village job are the people on the roof, not a sub we met that morning. On shared roofs we document which building the failure belongs to before any work crosses the property line.
We work clean over occupied homes
Most Passaic repairs happen over somebody's kitchen. We give tenants notice, keep the walkways and sidewalks clear, and sweep at the end of every working day rather than once at the end of the job.
5.0 on Google, licensed and insured under NJ Lic. #13VH11720500, and a real person answers around the clock. When you call about a Passaic Park three-family or a flat section off Main Ave, a roofer who knows these blocks picks up, not an answering service. Repairs carry a 2-year workmanship warranty, full replacements come with 50-year backing, and seniors and military save on every job.
Why Passaic Owners Stay With Us
A Shop Over the Line
We work out of 38 Speer Ave, a short run down Main Ave or up Route 21 into any Passaic neighborhood. When we say a crew can swing by, that is a plan and not a slogan. The blocks closest to the river are some of the shortest drives on our board.
One Contractor for the Envelope
Roof, flat roof, chimney, masonry, siding, windows. You are not stitching three trades together over one leak. The crew that handles the membrane handles the parapet brick it meets, so nobody points the finger at the other guy.
Remote-Friendly for Landlords
A large share of our Passaic calls come from owners who do not live in the building. We run those jobs on photos, written scopes, certificates of insurance on request, and direct tenant access, so you are not playing phone tag from another state.
Questions Passaic Owners Ask Us
Do you work on two and three-family houses?
That is most of what we touch in Passaic. The pitched-to-flat multi-family roofline is the city's signature, and we handle the front shingle field, the flat rear roof, and the transition seam between them as one job rather than three.
My flat roof looks fine but a unit is leaking. What now?
That is normal here. The stain inside is rarely under the actual failure, because water runs along the deck before it drops. We probe and photograph the membrane, the parapet, and the drains to find where it really enters, then show you the photos before we price anything.
I own the building but live out of state. Can you still help?
Yes, and a lot of our owners do. We coordinate tenant access directly, send timestamped before-and-after photos, write a scope your property manager can file, and provide a certificate of insurance on request. You approve the work from wherever you are.
The leak might be shared with the house next door. How does that work?
On the tight Passaic blocks one roof's water often ends up in the neighbor's ceiling. We document which building the failure belongs to before anyone argues about it, and we talk to both owners before any work crosses the property line.
How fast can you get to Passaic for active water?
Same day in most cases. The shop is right over the Clifton line, so emergency calls into Botany Village, Passaic Park, or the Main Ave corridor are short drives. We secure the leak first, then schedule the full repair.
