An old mill and trolley borough packed into well under a square mile. Roofing planned around tight lots and attached houses.
Clifton Heights is a former mill borough on Darby Creek, built out along Baltimore Avenue when the trolley ran up the middle of it. Houses sit close: rows, twins, and detached houses with a driveway’s width between them. Most of it went up between the 1890s and the 1930s, with postwar infill on the edges.
Dense blocks change how a roof gets done. Where the dumpster goes, how material is loaded, how we protect the neighbor’s cars and gardens, and how we flash a roof that dies into the house next door. We handle the permit through Clifton Heights Borough under the PA Uniform Construction Code.

On blocks this tight, a failure on one roof often shows up inside the house beside it, and the shared terminations are where the detail has to be right.
Staging, loading and cleanup planned for streets where there is no spare space.
Terminations at party walls built so water leaves your side and stays out.
Rear kitchen and shed sections often need membrane rather than more shingle.

Clifton Heights Borough. Pennsylvania issues construction permits at the municipal level under the Uniform Construction Code, so the borough office reviews the application and sends the inspector. Delaware County is not involved in the permit for a residential reroof.
We plan that before the first day, not on the morning of. Depending on the block that can mean a smaller container, a shorter placement window, or loading shingles directly to the roof. We also protect neighboring cars, walls and plantings, because on these lots the work happens right against them.
That is classic ice damming, and the low rear roofs in this borough are prone to it. Warm air escaping the attic melts snow, the melt refreezes at the cold edge, and standing water finds its way under the covering. The repair is flashing and underlayment at the eave plus better attic airflow.
If you are attached or nearly attached, there is a real argument for it. Doing both at once lets the shared flashing be built as one detail instead of two, and it keeps one crew responsible for that seam. It is not required, and we will do your side properly either way.
