Roofing across Hunterdon County.

Lightning Construction is a veteran- and family-owned, GAF-certified contractor serving Hunterdon County — a scenic, affluent western county of rolling farmland and historic river towns like Flemington, Clinton and Lambertville.

Across Hunterdon County's 23 municipalities there are about 40,886 housing units, and the median one was built in 1974. On average 63% of the housing in each town here predates 1980, which is the line either side of which a roof replacement stops being routine and starts involving decking and ventilation. The spread inside the county is wide: Frenchtown has a median build year of 1938 while Alexandria sits at 1985. Those are different houses with different roofs, and they do not price alike. Pottersville carries the highest median home value in the county, at $800,000.

What we build against here

Hunterdon County is designed for 35 pounds per square foot of ground snow under New Jersey's construction code — one of the highest figures in the state. Ice-and-water shield carried well past the wall line and a genuinely ventilated attic are what keep water out of ceilings here.
