A compact borough of 1920s to 1950s twins across the river from Trenton. Roof replacement that handles shared roof planes properly.
Morrisville is a borough of roughly two square miles on the Delaware opposite Trenton, with the Delaware Canal along its edge and Summerseat and the Gershom Craft House among its older landmarks. Most of the housing went up between the 1920s and the 1950s in neighborhoods such as Grandview, Manor Park, Morris Heights and Williamson Park. Detached singles and semi-detached twins dominate, which means many roof planes continue across a property line.
On a twin, the work stops at the party wall and the edge has to be finished so water cannot track next door. We detail that properly and say so in writing. The roofing permit is issued by Morrisville Borough under the PA Uniform Construction Code, and we submit the application.

When two houses share one continuous roof plane, the condition of the neighbor’s half and the detail at the party wall both affect your side.
The termination at a shared wall has to be built so runoff cannot travel next door.
Board sheathing from the 1920s and 1930s often needs sections replaced at tear-off.
Narrow side yards limit dumpster and staging space, so access gets planned in advance.
Morrisville Borough issues the roofing permit, separate from Falls and Lower Makefield townships.

From Morrisville Borough, under the PA Uniform Construction Code. The borough is its own municipality, distinct from Falls Township to the south and Lower Makefield Township to the north, and its 19067 ZIP code is shared with Yardley. We confirm the parcel, file the application and meet the inspector.
It does not stop the work. We terminate cleanly at the party wall with proper flashing so water from either side cannot get under your new courses. The one honest caution is that an aging roof next door can still leak into a shared attic space, which is worth raising with them before we start.
Not by itself, since board sheathing performs well when it is sound and the gaps between boards are reasonable. What we look for is rot near the eaves, splits at old fastener holes, and boards that have cupped. Those sections get replaced at tear-off, and we tell you the likely extent before we begin.
Mainly in staging. On tight borough lots we plan dumpster placement, tarp coverage over plantings and a path for material before the crew arrives, and we confirm where you can park. Cleanup includes a magnetic sweep of the driveway and walk, because on a small lot every stray nail ends up underfoot.
