Older blocks around the Darby Road shops, inside Haverford Township. Roof replacement with the porch and bay roofs done properly.
Oakmont is the walkable section of Haverford Township around the Darby Road shops, built up between the twenties and the forties. Brick and stone singles and twins, front porches the full width of the house, bay windows with their own small roofs, dormers cut into the second floor. The porches and bays are where the pitch goes shallow, and shallow is where asphalt shingle struggles.
We treat those sections as their own system, using membrane or standing-seam metal where the pitch calls for it and carrying the flashing up behind the wall rather than sealing the face. Roofing permits for Oakmont are issued by Haverford Township under the PA Uniform Construction Code.

Almost always the porch roof rather than the main roof. That slope is shallow, water lingers, and it works back under the shingle laps or through the junction with the house wall. A membrane on the porch and rebuilt wall flashing usually solves it without touching the main roof.
Haverford Township. Oakmont is one of several neighborhood names inside the township, not a municipality, so the township handles permits, inspections and code enforcement under the PA Uniform Construction Code. We file it, post it on site and meet the inspector when the work is done.
You can, and it will leak sooner than you want. Asphalt shingle relies on gravity and needs real pitch to work. Anything under about a two-in-twelve slope wants a membrane or soldered metal instead. It costs a little more and it stops the recurring repair.
Often yes. Bays and porch roofs are small enough that the cost difference is modest, metal handles the low pitch and the snow better, and it suits the period of these houses. We will quote it alongside membrane so you can see what the difference actually buys.
