From the stone houses along old Lancaster Avenue to the townhome courts off Route 100, West Whiteland roofs come in every shape.
West Whiteland is built around the Exton crossroads, where Route 30 meets Route 100 and the rail line runs through Whitford. The oldest houses are stone, put up along the Lancaster Turnpike, and a run of large Main Line style homes followed between 1880 and 1920. Everything else came later: Whiteland Woods, Exton Station, Swedesford Chase and dozens of similar courts of twins and townhouses.
Different housing needs different roof systems. Architectural asphalt covers most of it, slate or cedar stays where a stone house still carries it, metal suits porch and dormer roofs, and membrane belongs on shallow rear sections. Twins and townhomes get extra attention at the party wall. West Whiteland Township issues the permit and inspects the work under the Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code.

A stone house on Lancaster Avenue, a townhouse off Ship Road and a 1960s rancher near Whitford each fail somewhere different, and the estimate should say so.
On twins and townhomes the leak usually starts where two roofs meet a shared wall.
Older stone houses carry many roof planes, and every intersection is a place to get right.
Additions and sunrooms with little pitch want membrane, since shingles there will not hold.

Through the township. Exton is a postal place inside West Whiteland Township, not a municipality of its own, so the roofing permit and inspection come from West Whiteland Township under the Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code. We file it as part of the job.
The work stops at the party wall, and that is exactly where it has to be detailed well. We cut and flash cleanly at the division so water cannot track sideways into the neighboring unit, and we keep the ridge line matched. If both owners replace together the result is tighter and the price per home is usually better.
Usually not about weight, since a properly framed roof handles our snow load. Watch the melt instead: snow that disappears in patches points to heat escaping through the attic, and that is what produces ice at the eaves. Ventilation and insulation fix the cause, and ice-and-water underlayment protects the edge.
It can, and sometimes it should, but the house has to be looked at first. Slate is heavy, so the framing was built for it and asphalt will not overload anything; the harder question is whether the detailing and the look still work. On a prominent stone facade we usually recommend keeping slate on the street-facing slopes.
