Lightning Construction handles siding across Pompton Lakes, New Jersey — a Passaic County town of about 4,317 homes with a median build year of 1963 — veteran-owned, GAF-certified, no deposit and no change orders. Most Pompton Lakes projects run $10,000 to $22,000.
What siding in Pompton Lakes usually means.
The typical home in Pompton Lakes was built in 1963, and of the 4,317 housing units here the median sits squarely through the 1960s and early 1970s. About 79% of the stock is pre-1980.
These walls have been re-clad once already, and the product used is now forty to sixty years old. Aluminum chalks and dents, early vinyl gets brittle and fades, and both were installed with no housewrap behind them.
About 80% of homes here are owner-occupied, so most of what we quote goes to the person who will actually live under the roof.
Local conditions we build for
This is Passaic County: historic mill towns in the south and lake communities up in the highlands. Pompton Lakes sits in the part of the state that actually gets winter. Under New Jersey's construction code Passaic County is designed for 40 pounds per square foot of ground snow, among the highest figures in the state. The weight itself is rarely the problem; the problem is meltwater refreezing at a cold eave and backing up under the shingles. On walls it shows up as staining and rot below the eaves where meltwater has run behind the cladding for years. Ground near Ramapo River and Pequannock River holds water longer, which puts more demand on drainage than a drier lot half a mile away.

“Honest about everything. They showed up on time, kept the property clean, and the roof came out amazing. Made everything stress free.”
Straight answers.
Siding in Pompton Lakes typically runs $10,000 to $22,000. 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 1963 and 79% of the stock built before 1980, Pompton Lakes sees more of that variation than a newer town would. That is all visible at the free inspection, so the written number accounts for it.
Yes. New Jersey issues construction permits at the municipal level, so a siding in Pompton Lakes is permitted through the local construction office under the state Uniform Construction Code. We pull it and meet the inspector; you file nothing.
It does. Passaic County carries a design ground snow load of 40 pounds per square foot under New Jersey's construction code — among the highest in the state. In practice that means ice-and-water shield carried well up the eaves and a properly ventilated attic, because ice dams, not the weight itself, are what damage homes here.
Usually a day or two; larger homes run to three. Pompton Lakes is about 49 miles from our Manalapan base, well inside the area our crews cover daily.
Indirectly, yes. Properties near Ramapo River sit lower and stay damper, which speeds up moss and algae growth on shaded slopes and puts more demand on gutters and downspouts than a drier lot a mile away.
You pay when the work is done and you are satisfied with it — there is no deposit and no progress payment. Financing exists if you want it, at the same price.
