On the edge of Yardley, inside Lower Makefield Township. Replacement roofing for streets whose original shingles have run their course.
Woodside is a census place on the edge of Yardley borough, inside Lower Makefield Township. The township filled in through the 1960s and 1970s and again through the 1990s, so colonials and split-levels sit a short distance from older frame houses near the borough line. Lots are wooded on the established streets and more open in the newer developments. Route 332 and Stony Hill Road frame the area, and the schools are Pennsbury.
Roofs here usually reach us at thirty years or more, which makes the honest answer replacement rather than patching. We strip to the deck, rebuild valleys and pipe flashing instead of reusing them, and deal with skylight and chimney counterflashing on the same visit. The permit is issued by Lower Makefield Township under the PA Uniform Construction Code.

A township that built in waves ends up with blocks of houses whose roofs reach the end of their service life inside the same few years.
Neighbors often need roofs in the same season because the houses were built together.
Open valleys and pipe boots carried through a first re-roof rarely survive a second.
Mature trees on the older streets keep north-facing slopes damp and streaked with algae.
The roof permit for a Woodside address is issued by Lower Makefield Township.
Same office, same crews, a short drive away.
No. Woodside is a census place, and the municipality is Lower Makefield Township, which issues the roof permit under the Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code and inspects the finished work. If your parcel sits close to the borough line it is worth checking, because Yardley borough handles its own permits separately.
Algae, not mold or dirt. It grows on the granules and shows worst on shaded north slopes, which is common on the wooded streets here. Cleaning helps the appearance for a while, and algae-resistant shingles with copper in the granules are the durable answer when the roof is replaced anyway.
It is worth an inspection rather than an assumption. Houses built in the same year do tend to fail in the same window, but exposure, ventilation and whether a previous owner already re-roofed all shift the timeline. We will tell you if you have a few years left instead of selling you a roof early.
Usually yes. Skylight flashing kits age at roughly the same rate as the shingles around them, so reusing an old kit under a new roof is where leaks start. If the unit itself is sound we reflash it properly, and if the seals have failed, replacing it while the roof is open costs far less than going back later.
