Local roofs

What we look for on Jenkintown roofs

Most Jenkintown homes were built between 1900 and 1940, and a lot of them have big front porches.

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

    Houses from 1900 to 1940

    Houses this age have steep roofs, dormers, chimneys and porch roofs, and every one of those meets the main roof somewhere. Those joints are where leaks start, so that's where we look first.

  • 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.

  • Shingles cut back on a sloped roof to expose a patch of underlayment, a roofer's boots at the edge of the frame and a bundle of replacement shingles beside the opening

    After a storm

    Wind gets under shingles along the edges and the ridge first. Architectural shingles are heavier than old three-tab and hold up better, but nothing is wind proof. If you find pieces in the yard, call us, and we'll photograph what's missing and tell you what it takes to fix.

Jenkintown's Design Review Board looks at changes to exterior materials, like slate to asphalt or new stucco over brick. Like-for-like repair doesn't go to the board, but a material change has to be submitted 45 days before the permit application.

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 Jenkintown 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 check whether the job changes the roofing material, go through Design Review if it does, and file the permit with two sets of plans.

  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 Jenkintown

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.
