A rail-stop community straddling Abington and Upper Dublin townships, with close-set older houses and a hard-earned respect for drainage.
Ardsley is a small community on the Warminster Line with a station of its own, split between Abington Township and Upper Dublin Township. Hillside Cemetery and Ardsley Burial Park take up a large share of the land, and the Ardsley Wildlife Sanctuary covers what people here long called the Dark Woods. The housing is modest and close-set: early twentieth-century singles and twins with postwar infill between them.
Tropical Storm Allison put this area under water in 2001 and drainage work followed. Roof water is part of that system, so gutter capacity, downspout sizing and where the water actually discharges matter as much as the covering above them. We size and route both. Roofing permits for the Abington side are issued by Abington Township under the PA Uniform Construction Code.

Small lots and a history of flooding mean downspout discharge, gutter capacity and valley sizing deserve as much thought as the roof covering itself.
Undersized gutters overflow at the valleys during summer downpours and soak the fascia.
Downspouts emptying beside the foundation undo whatever the roof above them is doing.
Attached houses need the roof edge finished cleanly at the party line on both sides.
Abington Township permits the Abington side; Upper Dublin Township covers the rest of Ardsley.
Same office, same crews, a short drive away.
Whichever township your parcel sits in. Ardsley spans Abington Township and Upper Dublin Township, and each issues permits under the Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code for its own properties. We check the municipality before filing so nothing gets submitted to the wrong office. Montgomery County does not issue residential roofing permits.
Usually it is capacity and outlet placement rather than the roof. Long slopes feeding a short run of gutter, or a single downspout doing the work of two, will spill at the valley no matter what the shingles are doing. We calculate the drainage area and size the gutter, outlets and leaders to match it.
From the roof, not the ground. We look for lifted or creased shingles, granule loss in concentrated patches, bent flashing and displaced ridge caps, then photograph what we find and put it in writing. Plenty of storms leave nothing behind, and we will tell you that rather than sell you a replacement.
Not much, provided the shared edge is handled properly. We terminate and counterflash at the party line so your new roof sheds onto your side and leaves a clean starting point if your neighbor re-roofs later. Tear-off gets contained too, since the two roof planes are effectively continuous.
