Keyport is a small Victorian-era waterfront borough on Raritan Bay at the mouth of Matawan Creek. The downtown Maple Place historic district carries an unusually preserved collection of 1880s through 1920s frame Victorian and craftsman homes, many still on original framing with original ornate roof geometry. Outside the historic core, the housing stock is dominated by 1920s through 1960s frame homes on tight lots, with some 1980s and 1990s infill. The First Street and Front Street waterfront blocks took surge damage during Sandy in 2012 and several blocks were rebuilt or substantially renovated since.

Raritan Bay salt-air exposure is direct on every Keyport block. Galvanized flashing fails inside fifteen years on Keyport properties. Copper flashing is the only acceptable spec on full replacements and CRS installs it as standard. The borough's historic district designation applies to certain Maple Place and adjacent blocks and requires planning review on visible roof material changes. CRS handles those submissions. The construction office processes residential roofing permits in three to five business days. Restoration is a legitimate alternative on structurally sound Victorian-era roofs with intact framing.
