The western end of the Main Line, where 1890s borough houses on King Street sit a mile from half-acre subdivisions in Willistown and East Whiteland.
Malvern Borough is small and old. Frame and stone houses from the 1880s through the 1920s line King, Warren and Woodland, laid out along the Pennsylvania Railroad’s main line, and they carry steep pitches, porch roofs and rear additions added over a century. Cross the borough line and the story changes fast: Malvern Hunt, Applebrook Meadows, Charlestown Oaks and Uptown Worthington put much larger homes from the 1990s onward on bigger lots.
Two kinds of house need two approaches. On the older borough stock we work the flashing, valleys and porch transitions and run membrane at the eaves. On the newer homes we check where a fast build cut time: valley detail, pipe boots, ridge ventilation. The permit comes from the borough codes office, or from Willistown or East Whiteland if your address is outside the line.

An 1890s house on King Street and a 1998 colonial off Sugartown Road fail in completely different places, and an honest inspection treats them as different buildings.
Standing seam or membrane on low-slope porches instead of shingles bent past their limit.
Membrane, ventilation and insulation together, because the attic is what builds the dam.
On newer large-lot homes the valleys and pipe boots fail well before the shingles.

Plan on it. Pennsylvania reroofs are permitted locally under the Uniform Construction Code, so the borough codes office handles work inside the borough, and Willistown or East Whiteland handles it when a Malvern mailing address is actually in the township. We confirm which office owns the parcel before the crew shows up, then close the permit out.
Malvern’s historical commission is advisory. It records, inventories and recommends rather than issuing certificates of appropriateness, so it does not sign off on a private reroof the way a HARB does in West Chester or Phoenixville. If your property carries a deed restriction or an HOA rule, that is the one worth checking.
Twenty-five years is the tail end of a builder-grade architectural shingle, but the field is rarely what fails first. Around here it is the valley, the pipe boot or the step flashing at a dormer. An inspection tells you whether you are buying a repair or a replacement, and we will say plainly which one it is.
That gets its own system. Shingles need pitch, and a shallow porch or bay roof does better under EPDM, TPO or standing-seam metal. We also look at where it ties into the main slope, because that junction is the usual source of a stain on the porch ceiling.
