A tight little village on Route 413 in Buckingham Township, where old masonry and close-set buildings shape how a roof gets replaced.
Mechanicsville is a crossroads village in Buckingham Township, gathered where Durham Road, Route 413, crosses Mechanicsville Road. The Mechanicsville Village Historic District is on the National Register, and the buildings in the core sit close to the road and close to each other. Beyond the village the land opens into farm parcels and large-lot houses. It reads as a place with no town hall of its own, and that is exactly right.
Everything municipal happens at Buckingham Township, which is simpler than most homeowners expect. One office takes the permit application, one inspector signs off, and Bucks County has no role. We file that paperwork, work the tight lots by hand where a truck cannot reach, and rebuild masonry flashing on the older buildings. Buckingham Township is the authority under the PA Uniform Construction Code.

Village buildings sit close together with large chimneys and short setbacks, which limits access and puts most of the leak risk at the masonry joints.
Counterflashing has to be cut into stone or brick, not sealed on the surface.
Short setbacks mean hand carrying material and placing the dumpster carefully.
Where buildings nearly touch, the roof-to-wall junction takes the water for both.

Buckingham Township. The village is not a borough and has no separate government, so the township is the permitting authority under the Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code. That means one application, one fee schedule set by the township, and one inspection at the end. We handle the filing and the scheduling as part of the job.
Yes, it just takes more planning. We work out where the dumpster and the material drop go, set up ground protection along the road side, and keep the work zone tight so traffic is not affected. If a lift cannot reach the back slope we carry by hand, which adds time rather than difficulty.
Almost certainly the flashing, and on stone it is usually because someone sealed against the face of the masonry instead of cutting into a joint. Sealant fails within a few seasons on a moving stone wall. We cut a reglet, set counterflashing into it, and rebuild the step flashing so the water is directed out rather than held back.
Most are one day for tear-off and dry-in, with a second day if the decking needs work or access is unusually tight. We protect the ground and the walls first, strip the roof, and get it watertight before we leave. Anything we find in the deck is shown to you before it gets covered.
