Pre-War Housing Stock — Lower Merion's Roofs Are Overdue

Roofing work in Lower Merion, Montgomery County

The Lower Merion Housing Stock

Lower Merion's homes were built primarily before World War II — a period when original slate, clay tile, and early asphalt roofing systems were the standard. At 88+ years of age, these systems are well beyond their engineered service life. Visible failures like spalling, sagging valley lines, and granule-stripped shingles are common, but the hidden risks are often worse: deteriorated underlayment and compromised deck sheathing that turn minor leaks into costly interior damage events. Right Deal Construction specializes in full tear-off assessments and replacements of pre-war Lower Merion homes, with close attention to the original rafter and sheathing construction common to this era.

Common Questions

Roofing FAQ — Lower Merion, PA

Do I need a permit for roof replacement in Lower Merion, PA?

Yes — all full roof replacements in Lower Merion require a building permit filed with the Lower Merion Township Building Department. Right Deal Construction manages the complete permit application, all required inspections, and the final code sign-off as a standard included service on every project. You never need to interact with the permit office directly.

How old are most roofs in Lower Merion?

The median Lower Merion home was built around 1938, meaning most original roofing systems are approximately 88 years old. This places the majority of Lower Merion homes at or past the standard 20–25 year replacement threshold for architectural asphalt shingles. Key warning signs: granule loss accumulating in gutters, visible sagging between rafters, and water staining on attic sheathing.

What roofing materials are best for Lower Merion homes?

For most Lower Merion homes, GAF Timberline HDZ architectural shingles with a 130 mph wind rating are the highest-value option — matching the character of the pre-war-era housing stock while providing modern Class 4 impact resistance. For Lower Merion properties with complex rooflines or premium finishes, standing seam metal offers a 40–60 year service life and the best resistance to Pennsylvania's freeze-thaw cycles. Right Deal Construction provides written material recommendations in every free estimate.

Choosing a roofer that is reputable, fairly priced, and manufacturer certified were my top priorities, and Right Deal Construction & Roofing is an amazing business. I called on Labor Day because we just found a hole in the roof — they came out immediately.

The crew from Right Deal Construction & Roofing did an awesome job installing my new roof. My roof needed a lot of work and they made it look new again. If you are looking to have work done on your house, look no further! I highly recommend them. I would definitely use them again to do work on my house.
