Local Roofing In Easttown

The railroad built these houses

Easttown was farms and country estates until the Main Line was electrified in 1911, and then it filled in around the stations. Berwyn and Devon carry the results: stucco, stone and shingle-style houses from the first third of the twentieth century, steep pitches, deep eaves, dormers, slate and cedar. Later decades added ranchers and colonials, and a few large newer communities.
Pre-war roofs ask for restraint. We keep slate and cedar where they can be saved, replace with matching profiles where they cannot, fabricate metal for porch and bay roofs, and rebuild flashing at every dormer and chimney. Easttown Township issues the roofing permit and inspects the work under the Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code.

Roofing In Easttown

Century-old roofs are mostly a flashing question.

On houses of this age the shingle or slate is rarely the first thing to go, because the metal at the dormers, valleys and chimneys gives out first.

Steep old pitches

Steep slopes shed well but make staging, fastening and valley work more demanding.

Slate repair first

A sound slate roof with failed nails is a repair, not a replacement.

Deep eaves and ice

Wide overhangs stay cold, so ice forms there and needs underlayment beneath it.

Easttown permits

Easttown Township issues the roofing permit and inspects it, not Chester County.

Easttown FAQ

Common questions

Berwyn and Devon addresses cross township lines. Who permits my roof?

Berwyn and Devon addresses cross township lines. Who permits my roof?

The municipality the parcel sits in, which for most Berwyn and Devon addresses in this area is Easttown Township. Easttown issues the roofing permit and inspects the work under the Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code. We check the parcel first, because the same postal names also reach into Tredyffrin.

Deep overhangs stay cold while the heated part of the roof melts snow, and the runoff freezes when it reaches the cold edge. The ice then holds water until it works back under the shingles. The answer is attic ventilation and air sealing, plus ice-and-water underlayment across the lower courses.

Yes, and many houses here have already made the switch. Heavyweight architectural asphalt in a shake profile gives a similar shadow line without the upkeep cedar needs, and it holds a longer manufacturer warranty. Where the house is prominent and the budget allows, real cedar is still the better match.

With planning rather than promises. We tarp and board the ground below the working slopes, set staging off the walls rather than against them, and catch debris before it reaches beds and walkways. On older stucco we take particular care at ladder and staging contact points.
