Vernon is the resort township of northern New Jersey — a long stretch of Highlands ridge and valley, with ski slopes at Mountain Creek, the Appalachian Trail crossing the high ground, and a housing stock shaped by recreation rather than commuting. Private lake communities like Highland Lakes and Barry Lakes were laid out well before the war and sold as summer lots, and their older cottages are still the backbone of the township. Alongside them sits something you find almost nowhere else in the state: resort housing built in the 1970s and 1980s for the ski area, including clustered townhouses and condominiums, chalets and A-frames with big glazed gable walls made to look at the mountain. Vernon also gets more snow and colder nights than nearly anywhere else in New Jersey, and every one of those glass gables is where the heat goes.
Vernon needs a cold-climate specification, not an average one. We deal with gable and angled glazing safely and specify it for real winter performance, replace worn sliders with doors that seal and lock, and pay close attention to head and sill flashing where snow and ice sit above an opening. On older lake-community cottages the work is conversion work: insulated units, proper weatherstripping and air sealing at the frame.
We will assess how much glass your house is carrying, how it faces the weather, and what a winter here actually costs you.
