Two Departments
What we do in Passaic
Roofing and remodeling run as separate crews with separate numbers. Call the one that matches your project.

Roofing & Exteriors
The recurring Passaic roof is a two- or three-family with a low-slope or flat rear section, a shared or near-shared wall, and a front slope that is the only part visible from the street. Contractors who quote from the street routinely miss the rear section entirely. Access is the other constant: narrow lots with little or no driveway means staging, dumpster placement and material delivery all cost more here than the same roof would three towns west.
- Roof Replacement in Passaic$9,150–$22,000

Kitchen & Bath Remodeling
Multi-family kitchens and baths in Passaic are constrained by shared plumbing stacks and by the fact that work in one unit affects tenants in another. Original electrical services were sized for a 1920s household and are frequently still in place. A landlord and an owner-occupier have genuinely different scopes in the same building, and the permit tier depends on which one you are.
- Bathroom Remodeling in Passaic$12,000–$45,500
- Kitchen Remodeling in Passaic$28,000–$81,300

Passaic housing, and what it means for the work
Passaic's housing is overwhelmingly early-twentieth-century and dense: brick apartment buildings through the Third Ward and Lower Main, two- and three-family frame houses across most of the city, and larger detached homes concentrated in Passaic Park. Very little was built after 1960, and almost none of it on a large lot.

Passaic homeowners ask
Do you need a permit for home improvement work in Passaic, NJ?
Passaic administers the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code through its Construction Code Enforcement office. Passaic is one of the most densely populated cities in the United States, and the practical consequence for permits is that a large proportion of its housing is multi-family or attached — which sits outside the N.J.A.C. 5:23-2.7 exemption that lets detached one- and two-family homeowners replace a roof covering with no permit at all.
