Roofing in Edgmont: Big Lots, Big Roofs

Edgmont Township is semi-rural western Delaware County. It was farm country until homebuilding picked up in the 1960s and 1970s, and it still has open land, the village of Gradyville, and Ridley Creek State Park, whose main entrance is on Gradyville Road.

The homes we see in Edgmont

Expect large homes on big lots — colonials and custom homes in subdivisions from recent decades, townhouse communities, older farmhouses, and barns, garages and outbuildings that need roofs too. Bigger roofs mean more valleys, more penetrations and more places for small problems to hide.

• Large, complex roofs inspected by drone, section by section
• Standing seam metal for barns, garages and outbuildings
• Gutter guards for heavily wooded lots
• Premium designer shingles or synthetic slate for estate homes

Edgmont Township permits

Roof replacement permits are issued by Edgmont Township. One local quirk: Edgmont homes use several mailing addresses — Gradyville, Newtown Square, Media, Glen Mills and Edgemont — so the township on your tax bill, not the town in your address, decides where the permit goes. We handle the filing.

Edgmont by the numbers

Edgmont’s homes are newer than most of the region’s: half of the homes in Edgmont Township were built after 1991. A 25- to 30-year shingle roof from those years is due now, so many homeowners here are planning their first full replacement.
