Broomall grew almost entirely in the postwar suburban boom, which means most of its roofs, siding, and gutter systems are now aging out of their original service life within a few years of each other. Hynes Construction is the residential roofing contractor Broomall, PA that homeowners call for roof repair, roof replacement, siding, decks, gutters, windows, doors, chimney repair, painting, bathroom remodeling, and insurance claims assistance throughout Marple Township. Broomall’s split-level and ranch neighborhoods off West Chester Pike and Sproul Road were largely built out in a single wave during the 1950s and 1960s, which means entire streets are now approaching or past the original service life of their roofing, siding, and gutter systems at roughly the same time.

Financing available. Serving Broomall for over 50 years. No pressure. Written proposals before any home improvement project begins.
Because so much of Broomall’s housing stock shares the same construction era, we see the same failure patterns repeat block after block: original three-tab shingle roofs well beyond their rated lifespan, aluminum siding that has warped or chalked, and gutters undersized for the storm volumes we now get compared to when these homes were built along Marple Road and near the Lawrence Park Shopping Center. Our crews know these house types well and can usually identify the scope of a problem from the driveway before we ever climb the ladder.
We are a GAF Master Elite certified contractor and a James Hardie Preferred Installer. We back every project with a written workmanship warranty and offer flexible financing for qualifying projects.
The 1950s and 1960s split-level and ranch homes dominating Broomall’s residential developments present a unique structural challenge: multi-tier rooflines with staggered, disconnected attic spaces. Because these separate attic cavities are rarely ventilated evenly, heat traps unevenly across the different levels of the home. During harsh Pennsylvania winters, this thermal imbalance causes rapid snowmelt on the upper tiers that refreezes into thick ice dams at the lower eaves. Hynes Construction installs custom ridge-and-soffit ventilation systems specifically configured for staggered split-level footprints, pairing them with heavy-duty GAF WeatherWatch ice and water shields to protect your lower roof valleys from winter back-up leaks.
Broomall’s split-level and ranch roofs off Sproul Road were largely installed during the same building boom, so when one house on a block needs a repair, the neighbors are usually not far behind. We see the same failure points repeatedly here: original three-tab shingles past their rated life, nail pops from age-related shrinkage, and flashing that was never upgraded when the roof was last touched decades ago. Every repair gets a written estimate and is performed by our own crew.
Because so much of Broomall was built out in a single wave in the 1950s and 1960s, we can often tell what condition a roof is likely in just from knowing which development it sits in. That doesn’t replace a proper inspection, but it does mean we know exactly what to check for on a Marple Township split-level or ranch roof, and we give homeowners a realistic timeline for replacement rather than vague generalities.
Replacing a roof in Broomall is rarely a surprise decision, most homeowners here know the original roof is decades old before they call. We handle full tear-off and GAF architectural shingle installation sized correctly for the moderate pitches common to split-level and ranch construction, and we manage Marple Township’s permit process directly, which w have done for this exact housing type many times over.
When a storm moves through the West Chester Pike corridor, Broomall’s aging original roofing systems are often the first to show damage, simply because they have the least remaining material life to absorb it. We prioritize emergency calls from homes with visible active leaks or missing shingle sections, tarp immediately to stop water intrusion, and follow up with a permanent repair scoped once the storm has passed.
Hail damage on Broomall’s original 1950s and 1960s shingle roofs is often harder to spot than on a newer roof, because granule loss on older, already-weathered shingles can look like normal wear rather than storm impact. We check gutters and downspouts for granule accumulation, look for soft or bruised spots on shingle tabs, and provide a written report an insurer can act on.
The commercial stretch along West Chester Pike and Sproul Road includes strip retail and small office buildings that need the same reliable flat and low-slope roofing attention as any larger commercial property. We service these with single-ply membrane and built-up roofing systems, scheduling work to minimize disruption to businesses operating during the project.
Many ranch and split-level homes off Sproul Road still feature their original, dented 1960s aluminum siding over ancient exterior wall configurations. Tearing down this original siding often reveals decades of hidden moisture penetration, rotted plywood sheathing, or degraded building wrap that has silently compromised the structural insulation. When Hynes Construction executes an exterior siding overhaul, we do not simply hide old problems. Our crews strip the exterior down to the bare framing, repair any hidden rot common to post-war builds, and install a modern, breathable moisture barrier before flawlessly mounting durable, James Hardie fiber cement siding.
A meaningful share of Broomall’s ranch and split-level homes still carry original aluminum siding installed when the neighborhoods were first built, and it’s often warped, chalked, or simply outdated at this point. We replace it with James Hardie fiber cement siding, which holds paint far longer and resists the freeze-thaw damage aluminum siding tends to show after enough Pennsylvania winters.
Broomall’s suburban lots, laid out for post-war family living, generally give us more usable backyard space to work with than tighter borough lots elsewhere on the Main Line. We design decks that take advantage of that space, often with larger footprints and multiple use zones, in composite or pressure-treated wood, and manage the full Marple Township permitting process.

Broomall’s original neighborhoods were built with standard 4-inch or 5-inch gutter systems that simply cannot keep pace with the high-volume cloudbursts and sudden flash storms the West Chester Pike corridor experiences today. When these older, narrow gutters overflow, heavy rainwater spills directly down the face of the foundation, cracking the post-war concrete block basements common in Marple Township. We engineer high-capacity drainage retrofits using seamless 6-inch K-style aluminum gutters and oversized 3×4-inch downspouts, drastically increasing the water-clearing capacity to keep your basement completely dry.
Broomall’s original gutter systems, installed when these developments went up in the 1950s and 1960s, are frequently undersized for the storm volumes this area sees now compared to when they were built. We replace them with properly sized seamless aluminum gutters and add gutter guards where mature trees near Skyview Park and the surrounding streets create heavy seasonal debris loading.
Original single-pane windows are still common throughout Broomall’s older ranch and split-level homes, and they’re a significant source of the drafts and energy loss homeowners notice most in winter. We install energy-efficient replacement windows sized to fit these homes’ original openings without the costly structural changes a full resize would require.
Bala Cynwyd’s residential lots near the Cynwyd Heritage Trail tend to be narrower than the estate lots farther out on the Main Line, so deck design here is about maximizing a compact backyard rather than building at estate scale. We design multi-level decks and built-in seating that make the most of a smaller footprint in composite, cedar, or PVC, and we handle Lower Merion Township permitting on every project regardless of size.
Entry doors on Broomall’s ranch and split-level homes are typically standard-sized, which makes replacement straightforward, but we still take care to match trim and sightlines so a new fiberglass or steel door doesn’t look out of place against a decades-old exterior. We also install storm doors suited to the more open, less tree-shaded exposure many Broomall lots have.
Chimneys on Broomall’s split-level and ranch homes are usually smaller in scale than the Main Line’s older estate chimneys, but flashing failure is just as common a leak source here. We repair and rebuild crowns, repoint masonry, and replace step flashing, treating each chimney repair as part of the surrounding roof system so a fix actually resolves the leak rather than masking it.
Exterior painting in Broomall often involves refreshing trim and siding that’s showing its age alongside the home’s original construction era. We prep thoroughly, scraping and priming before any topcoat, since skipping that step is the single biggest reason paint jobs fail early on homes this age. Interior painting projects here are common ahead of a sale, given how many Broomall homes have been owned by the same family for decades.

Bathroom remodeling in Broomall’s ranch and split-level homes usually means updating fixtures original to a 1950s or 1960s build, sometimes down to the original plumbing layout. We modernize the space while respecting the home’s existing structure, and manage Marple Township permitting for any project involving plumbing or electrical changes.
Given how much of Broomall’s roofing stock is aging simultaneously, storm damage claims here often come down to a genuine dispute over whether damage is storm-related or simply end-of-life wear. We document damage thoroughly and make the distinction clearly, so legitimate storm claims get properly valued instead of dismissed as routine deterioration.
Unlike the deep stone foundations found in older Main Line towns, Broomall’s post-war homes rely heavily on poured concrete or cinder block foundations. These porous materials absorb moisture rapidly from the dense clay soil during heavy spring rains, often causing bowing walls or hairline cracks over time. When executing grading, patio door installation, or deck projects near the home’s perimeter, Hynes Construction integrates specialized foundation water shedding. We ensure all exterior grades, downspout extensions, and sub-deck drainage move water aggressively away from these vulnerable mid-century block basements to preserve your structural integrity permanently.
Broomall homeowners choose Hynes Construction because we know this housing stock, ranch and split-level construction from the 1950s and 1960s, better than contractors who mainly work newer builds, and we price accordingly rather than guessing.
We staff our own crews rather than subcontracting to unknown labor, so the team that estimates your Broomall project is accountable for the team that completes it. Every job includes a written scope of work, a fixed price before work begins, and direct communication with your project lead from start to finish.
