A canal village on River Road seven miles above New Hope, where there is barely a yard between the houses and the road.
Lumberville is a narrow village in Solebury Township, strung along River Road above the Delaware Canal, with Lock 12 and the footbridge across to Raven Rock. The Lumberville Historic District has been on the National Register since 1984, and the houses match that: eighteenth and nineteenth century stone and frame, set close to the road, close to the canal and close to each other. The Black Bass Hotel is the anchor at the center of it.
On a lot this tight, access is half the job. There is nowhere to put a dumpster, no turning room for a material truck, and a stone wall or the towpath within a few feet of the drip line. We sort that out first, protect the ground and the masonry, then do the roof. Solebury Township issues the permit under the PA Uniform Construction Code.
The full Maze Roofing range, residential and commercial, from the local team.
Shingle, tile, metal and flat roofing for homes and townhomes across the area.
Shingle, tile, metal, flat and TPO. Managed from tear-off to cleanup.
Flat, TPO and metal systems, with maintenance programs that protect the asset.
Storm damage, active leaks and fallen trees, with 24/7 phone response.
With the road on one side and the canal on the other, where the dumpster sits and how material reaches the back slope shapes the whole schedule.
Material and debris have to be placed without blocking River Road or the towpath.
Falling debris chips old pointing, so walls get covered before anything comes off.
Where houses nearly touch, one roof-to-wall junction is draining both of them.
Roof permits for Lumberville addresses are issued by Solebury Township under the PA UCC.
Same office, same crews, a short drive away.

Yes, and it is most of what we do in villages like this. We look at the site before quoting to work out where the dumpster goes, whether a material lift can reach the eave, and what has to be carried through or around. Tight sites take longer rather than being impossible, and the quote reflects the real access.
Solebury Township. Lumberville is an unincorporated village within the township, so the township is the permitting authority under the Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code and its inspector closes the job out. Bucks County does not issue residential roof permits. We prepare the application and schedule the final inspection.
The National Register listing is federal recognition and does not by itself dictate your materials. Any requirement that would affect a visible change comes from the township, so we ask Solebury Township about your parcel before ordering. In practice a like-for-like replacement in a sympathetic material is the smoothest route.
By containing it rather than cleaning up after it. We tarp and board the ground on the canal side, set catch protection below the eaves, and keep a person on the ground during tear-off instead of letting material fall freely. At the end of each day the site gets swept and magnet-rolled for nails.
