Totowa is a compact residential neighborhood in Paterson's 1st Ward, characterized by post-war single-family homes on grid-like streets near the Totowa section line.
Local housing stock: Homes are primarily modest Cape Cods and Ranch houses built in the 1950s and 1960s, with some earlier two-family brick dwellings from the 1920s along main thoroughfares.
Totowa homeowners face a unique set of roofing challenges. Our hot, humid summers fuel thunderstorms that can pelt roofs with hail and rip off shingles. Winters bring heavy snow and repeated freeze-thaw cycles that cause ice dams and cracking. Nor’easters add punishing wind and rain. To protect your home, you need a roof built for this climate—and a Paterson roofing contractor who knows the territory.
Totowa’s housing stock is as varied as its neighborhoods. In the historic district near the Great Falls, you’ll find early 20th-century brick and frame rowhomes with steep-pitch roofs. Over in the Eastside and Lakeview sections, Victorian-era single-family houses feature ornate gables and slate-like asphalt. The Totowa Section and areas around People’s Park are filled with post-war ranches and cape cods with low-slope roofs. Each style demands different materials and techniques—and we’ve worked on them all.
When you call Paterson Roofing Pros, you get a crew that’s been on roofs in Paterson, Totowa, and across Passaic County for 19 years. We don’t cut corners. We inspect every layer, recommend the right shingle for your pitch and budget, and install it to hold up against the next nor’easter. Whether you’re near Lambert Castle, Garrett Mountain Reservation, or the Paterson Museum, we treat your home like it’s our own. No pushy sales. Just honest work that lasts.
Common Roofing Issues in Totowa
- Many original 1950s asphalt shingle roofs are nearing end of life and require full replacement with modern underlayment to address Paterson's freeze-thaw cycles.
- Mature Norway maple trees along streets like East 18th Street drop heavy limbs during nor'easters, posing impact damage risk to roofs.
- Older flat-roofed sections on additions (common on 1950s ranches) are prone to ponding due to inadequate drainage from original construction.
