Local roofs

What we look for on Glenside roofs

Glenside is old. More than half its homes were built before 1940, and about one in five is attached.

  • Brick chimney rising above a grey shingle roof with metal flashing at its base

    Pre-war houses

    Houses built before 1940 come with steep roofs, dormers and chimneys, and that's a lot of flashing. Flashing is where these roofs usually start to leak.

  • Overhead drone view of a row of attached homes, two units stripped to bare plywood decking and bagged tear-off on the ground below

    Twins and row homes

    Where your roof meets the neighbor's over the party wall, the new work has to tie in cleanly with their side. That seam is where water likes to get in, so it's where we look hardest.

  • Slope of multi-tone architectural shingles running to a white gutter, with trees and an overcast sky beyond

    Trees over the roof

    If big trees hang over your house, the valleys and gutters fill with leaves, branches come down in storms, and the shady side stays damp enough for moss. You can't see any of that from the driveway. You can see it in the drone photos.

Leak near the chimney? We do chimney work too, so we check the flashing, the crown and the brick on the same visit.

No guessing from the ground

Repair or replace? You'll see the photos first

We don't guess from the ground. We put a drone up, walk what's safe to walk, and send you the pictures. If the shingles are still flat and flexible, we fix the leak and you keep the roof. If they're brittle or curling across whole slopes, a repair only buys you time, and we'll tell you that. Either way, it's your call.

How a Glenside roof job goes

  1. Free inspection

    We come out, fly the drone and go through the photos with you.

  2. Written estimate

    Everything's on paper, including the per-sheet price for any rotted decking we find, so there's no surprise on the final bill.

  3. Permits

    We work out whether you're north or south of the tracks and file the roof permit with the right township.

  4. Tear-off and new roof

    We cover the beds, the old shingles go straight into the dumpster, and we check the decking before new underlayment, flashing and shingles go down. At the end we sweep the yard and driveway with a magnet for nails.

    I live in Cheltenham PA, and Dynasty Construction & Roofing recently installed my new roof. I have nothing but great things to say about my experience with them! From start to finish, Jack keep me update with the pictures from the drone view and the entire team was professional, efficient, and completely transparent throughout the whole process. They took the time to explain everything thoroughly, answered all of my questions, and made sure I knew exactly what to expect every step of the way. I would absolutely recommend Dynasty Construction & Roofing to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and reasonably priced roofing company. I couldn't be happier with the entire experience!

    Replacing a roof isn't something you do everyday. But in doing so you want to make sure you have someone knowledgeable, trustworthy, and efficient. When I met Rich and Jack from Dynasty Construction & Rofing they made me feel comfortable immediately. I knew they knew their stuff and they handled everything for me. I didn't have time to worry or doubt because their confidence and professionalism surpassed all my expectations. Jack walked me through everything step by step and answered any questions or concerns patiently. I definitely recommend them because they definitely have your best interest in mind.

  • Smokey IGoogle review

    I recently hired Dynasty Construction & Roofing to take care of some issues with my roof, including replacing missing shingles and recapping my chimney, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. From the start, they were responsive, professional, and easy to work with. They clearly explained the scope of work, provided a fair estimate, and showed up on time ready to get the job done. The quality of their workmanship really stood out and everything was completed with attention to detail, and you can tell they take pride in what they do. The new shingles blend in perfectly with the existing roof, and the chimney recap was done cleanly and securely. They also made sure to clean up thoroughly after the job, which I really appreciated.

Price

What a new roof costs in Glenside

We don't price roofs over the phone. Two houses on the same street can come back thousands of dollars apart. What moves the number is the size and shape of the roof, how steep it is, how many layers come off, how much decking is soft, and how much flashing the roof needs.

Our estimate often isn't the lowest one you'll get. If a bid comes in way under the others, ask what's missing from it. Usually it's the decking or the flashing.

Questions about roofing in Glenside

Do I need a permit to replace my roof in Glenside?

Yes, on either side. Abington requires a permit for all roof work. Cheltenham requires one for anything but a repair under 100 square feet, and starting without it triples the fee.

Is my Glenside house in Cheltenham or Abington?

Glenside is split by the train tracks: south is Cheltenham Township, north is Abington. Give us the address and we'll check which office handles it.

Can you put a new roof over my old one?

Pennsylvania code allows one new layer over an existing one in some cases. We recommend against it. You can't see or fix the decking through the old shingles, and the extra layer adds weight.

Can you check the chimney while you're up there?

Yes. A lot of roof leaks are really chimney flashing. We do chimney work too, so it's one visit.

How soon can you get out to Glenside?

We're based in Warminster, in Bucks County, a short drive from Glenside. Call and we'll tell you on the phone when we can come out.

Free, and nothing to book

Want to know where your roof stands?

We'll come out, put the drone up and show you what we see. It costs nothing and you don't have to book anything. If the roof has years left in it, we'll tell you that too.
