The Dumont houses we work on.
The typical home in Dumont was built in 1952, and of the 6,768 housing units here the median sits squarely in the postwar building boom. About 90% of the stock is pre-1980.
The five-inch aluminum on most of these homes went up long after the house did, sized for the roof as it was then. Re-pitching and adding a downspout solves most complaints on these houses without replacing anything.
The borough dates to 1891. It was carved out of Harrington Township.
What Dumont weather does to a house
Bergen County is New Jersey's most populous county, running from the Hudson palisades out to Ramapo foothills, and Dumont is part of it. Nothing extreme happens to roofs in this part of the state. What happens instead is water freezing and thawing, night after night. Every cycle widens whatever gap the last one made. A nail pop becomes a leak, a hairline split in flashing becomes a stained ceiling, and none of it happens fast enough to notice. It is also what pulls gutters off a fascia — ice loads a trough far beyond what water alone ever would.

“Honest about everything. They showed up on time, kept the property clean, and the roof came out amazing. Made everything stress free.”
Straight answers.
Gutter work in Dumont typically runs $1,200 to $3,500. What moves a given house within that band is size, pitch and what is already on the roof — and with a median build year of 1952 and 90% of the stock built before 1980, Dumont sees more of that variation than a newer town would. The inspection settles it before you get a number.
Yes — this work is permitted by Dumont's own construction office under New Jersey's Uniform Construction Code. Handling the permit and the inspection is part of what we do, and it is already in the price.
It changes what we look for. With roughly 90% of Dumont housing predating 1980, plank decking, stacked layers and improvised flashing are all common — so the inspection covers them and the written estimate reflects whatever is actually there.
One to three days for a typical house here. Dumont is about 49 miles from our Manalapan base, well inside the area our crews cover daily.
