A Huntingdon Valley postal address, Pennypack Creek through the middle, and street after street of 1950s and 1960s split-levels.
Lower Moreland is the quieter half of the old Moreland tract, with Pennypack Creek forming its line against Upper Moreland. Huntingdon Pike runs up the middle as Route 232, and Bethayres and Philmont still carry their rail-station names. Most of the housing went up between 1950 and 1970: ranches, split-levels and colonials on wide lots, now under trees that were saplings when the houses were new.
That combination gives us most of our work here. Split-level roofs have short runs, low-slope tie-ins and long dead valleys where the levels meet, and mature trees drop debris into all of them. We replace the whole system rather than patching around old flashing. Permits for roof replacement are filed with Lower Moreland Township under the PA Uniform Construction Code.

Storm damage, active leaks and fallen trees, with 24/7 phone response.
Where one roof plane dies into a wall or a lower level, water slows down, and that is where a fifty-year-old house usually starts leaking.
Dead valleys and roof-to-wall tie-ins are the first places to fail here.
Earlier re-roofs often kept old step flashing and counterflashing in place.
Mature canopy drops debris into short valleys and keeps them wet.
The township issues roofing permits directly under the state construction code.
Same office, same crews, a short drive away.

Huntingdon Valley is a postal name that covers parts of Lower Moreland, Upper Moreland and Abington townships, plus a little of Bucks County. If your parcel is in Lower Moreland, the roofing permit comes from Lower Moreland Township under the Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code. We check the parcel and file where it belongs.
Because that junction depends entirely on step flashing and counterflashing, and on many re-roofs the old metal was left in place and sealed over. Sealant fails in a few winters. Done properly, new step flashing is woven into each shingle course and tucked behind the wall covering.
Not harder, but more detailed. There are more short runs, more roof-to-wall transitions and often a dead valley where two levels meet, so the labor sits in the junctions rather than the open field. A crew that rushes flashing on a split-level produces a roof that leaks with plenty of shingle left.
It does. Limbs abrade granules every time the wind moves them, they keep the slope from drying, and they drop debris straight into valleys and gutters. Trimming back several feet is one of the cheapest things you can do for a roof under mature canopy, and this township has plenty of that.
