Wide wooded lots off the West Trenton Line, older houses at generous scale, and roofs with a great deal of surface to cover.
Meadowbrook is an eastern Abington Township community built around its West Trenton Line station, which opened under the name Paul Brook. Holy Redeemer’s hospital campus anchors one side of it. The character is generous: mature trees, wide lots and older houses at a scale that suited them, with mid-century and later homes filling the spaces between. Rydal is the next stop, and the two share a civic association.
Roof area and tree cover drive both the cost and the failure modes here. Long planes need proper intake and exhaust balance, and heavy canopy makes debris management part of maintenance rather than an extra. We walk the whole roof and give you a written condition report. Roof permits are issued by Abington Township under the PA Uniform Construction Code.

Houses of this size carry several roof systems at once, steep slate or asphalt above, low-slope membrane over sunrooms and porches, and metal on bays and dormers.
Steep asphalt, low-slope membrane and metal accents often meet on one house here.
Older houses on these lots still carry original slate or cedar worth pricing for repair.
Mature trees over wide roof planes keep valleys loaded and slopes slow to dry.
Abington Township issues roofing permits under the Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code, not the county.
Same office, same crews, a short drive away.
Abington Township. Meadowbrook is a community within the township rather than a borough, so the township issues the permit and performs the inspection under the Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code. There is no county roofing permit in Pennsylvania. We prepare and file the application and schedule the inspection around the work.
Yes, and it is better that way. Steep-slope asphalt or slate, low-slope membrane over a sunroom, and metal on a bay each need the right material, but the leaks almost always happen at the transitions between them. One crew responsible for all three means nobody is pointing at somebody else’s flashing.
It scales with area, but complexity matters more. Two houses of the same square footage can differ substantially if one has multiple dormers, long valleys, steep pitch and limited access. We measure the roof rather than the house, count the details, and show you what drives the number.
Clear them, and clear the valleys before the gutters. Packed debris in a valley dams water sideways and holds it against the decking, which rots sheathing far faster than an overflowing gutter does. On lots with this much canopy we recommend clearing twice a year and checking after any significant storm.
