Oak Tree in Four Lines

Built: an older crossroads community that filled in with postwar and later houses around Oak Tree Road
Typical house and roof: colonials, split-levels and ranches, many expanded with additions and second stories
Trees and exposure: a mix of mature trees and open streets near the commercial strip
What usually fails first: the seams where additions meet the original roof, and valleys on multi-level roofs

Behind the Restaurants on Oak Tree Road

Oak Tree Road is best known for its long stretch of restaurants and shops running from Edison into Iselin, and for the South Asian community that has made it a regional destination. Behind the commercial strip are residential streets where a lot of houses have grown over the years: rear additions, second floors, enlarged kitchens and porches enclosed into living space. Every addition adds a roof seam. What you see is often a ceiling stain in the addition right next to the original house wall. What it usually means is the tie-in, where the new roof meets the old, rather than the middle of either roof.

Roof Calls From Oak Tree

Houses that have been expanded often have more than one kind of roof: shingles on the main house and a membrane on a low addition. A roofer will check both, and the flashing where they meet.

What Oak Tree homeowners usually call about: leak and storm repair, a new shingle roof, a roof on an addition or garage, metal roofing, a flat section, or simply finding a roofer.

If you're planning an addition, ask early how its roof will tie into the existing one. It's cheaper to get right during construction than after the first leak.
