Street by street

Both halves of it.

Havertown is not one kind of house, and the zip code you are in changes what tends to be wrong with the roof. Here is what we find where.

Havertown & Manoa

Postwar stone colonials and capes on wide lots, most on their second or third asphalt roof and a good many still on their original wood trim. Steep, visible planes and a lot of painted wood at the edge — architectural shingle and aluminium capping are the bulk of the work out here.

Brookline & Llanerch

The same stock a little older and a little tighter, with deeper eaves and more of the original copper and box gutter still in place. Worth an inspection before a roof goes on rather than after, because the drainage detail is what decides the price.

Steep, visible roof planes and a lot of painted wood out at the edge. Architectural shingle and aluminum capping are most of what we do out here. What fails on them fails the same way every time, which is why we can usually tell you on the phone what we expect to find before we are on the ladder. Drag the handle — both frames are one roof, from one standing position.

Havertown FAQ

Yes — Havertown (19083) is one of the areas we cover regularly, along with West Chester Pike, Darby Rd, Manoa and the streets around them. Residential only.
Emergencies, the same day — that is what the 24/7 line is for. Free inspections and estimates, usually within the same week. We are based in the city and out here constantly; being over the line does not put you at the back of the queue.
It comes down to your roof, not your postcode: square footage, pitch, how many layers are coming off, decking condition and how much flashing there is. The inspection and the written estimate are both free, so you get a real number rather than a range.
Both, and in this city most houses need someone who does. Granulated cap sheet and coatings on the flat and low-slope sections, GAF shingle systems on anything pitched.
