General Contractor & Construction Company in Summit, NJ
Precision General Construction brings 1980-founded, family-owned craftsmanship to Summit from our Clark headquarters in central Union County. We handle high-end remodels, additions, roofing, and restoration on the city's older homes.
Construction & Remodeling for Summit's Historic Homes
Summit is one of Union County's grand old commuter towns, full of substantial homes built from the late 1800s through the early-to-mid 1900s. Stately Victorians with wraparound porches, half-timbered Tudor Revivals, and center-hall Colonial Revivals fill neighborhoods like the Northside and Woodland Park, many of them on generous lots. Renovating homes of this caliber demands more than a standard crew. There is original millwork to match, plaster and lath to work around, period proportions to honor, and a level of finish the city's design-conscious homeowners expect. We take on whole-home renovations, kitchen and bath remodels, additions, and exterior restoration with that standard in mind. Summit sits in the northern part of the county, a bit farther from our Clark shop than our nearest towns, and we plan our scheduling so distance never slows the work.

We recently put on an addition and Bob and his team were amazing! They are hardworking, dependable and do great work. I have been so happy with the addition, I've already recommended them to two other friends!
Quick, professional and friendly service. They installed an awning for us and working with them was wonderful every step of the way. I highly recommend them.
The best price, very professional, very friendly, and great work. They replaced my slate roof with shingles. I highly recommended this company for any construction work.
I had the pleasure of having Precision General Construction install new hardwood floors in my house. They did a seamless job of removing my old flooring, installing my new floors and leaving my house in outstanding shape everyday they were there! I would absolutely recommend them for any job you need done on your house!

Outstanding products and professional staff! The gutter protection is great and I have no worries about leaves and debris. I would recommend your company and services to everyone. Thank you again!

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Summit Service
What Building & Renovating in Summit Takes
Summit's housing stock is older and finer than most of the county, which raises the bar on every project. Victorians, Tudors, and Colonial Revivals from the turn of the last century come with plaster walls, original trim and built-ins, slate or specialty roofing, and dated mechanical systems hidden inside historic walls. Doing right by these homes means matching existing details, sourcing appropriate materials, and protecting finishes during construction, not just framing the fastest addition. We bring the patience and the trades for that kind of work, whether we are restoring a porch, opening a kitchen, or adding a wing that reads as original to the house.
Permits in Summit run through the Construction Division within the Department of Community Services at City Hall on Springfield Avenue, under the NJ Uniform Construction Code. Summit has an active Historic Preservation Commission, a downtown listed on the National Register, and a historic plaque program, so projects on significant properties can trigger preservation review, and zoning approval may be required first. We are familiar with that process and build it into the project timeline. Summit is one of the farther towns from our Clark base, so we organize materials and crews to keep the job efficient and the site clean throughout.
