Slate on the Old Houses Along Third Street
Beaver's historic core runs along Third Street, which carries Route 68 through the borough, and the side streets around it hold houses built from the mid-1800s into the early 1900s. Victorian, Craftsman and Colonial Revival homes sit side by side, and many still wear slate. Good slate outlasts several shingle roofs. When a Beaver slate roof leaks, the cause is usually tired valley and chimney flashing or a run of cracked pieces, not slate that has reached the end of its life. We replace individual slates and re-flash valleys and chimneys. A full switch to slate-look architectural shingles only makes sense when the slate itself has gone soft or started flaking.
River Road Homes on the Bluff Above the Ohio
River Road follows the bluff above the Ohio River, passing the site of Fort McIntosh, a Revolutionary War era fort whose outline is still marked along the road. The houses up here have a good view and take a beating for it. Wind runs up the river valley and hits the river-facing slopes head on, and fog sits in on many spring and fall mornings. Ice dams along the eaves of these bluff homes are common in January and February. Most of the fix happens before the shingles go on: ice and water shield along the eaves, enough attic insulation and venting to keep the roof deck cold, and well-sealed flashing on the slopes that face the water.
Standing Seam Porches and Bay Roofs in the Historic Core
Many of Beaver's older homes pair a slate or shingle main roof with standing seam metal on the front porch, bay windows and low-slope rear additions. Those metal sections were often painted terne, and after decades of skipped repainting they rust through at the seams and along the gutter edge. Replacing them with new standing seam in a traditional profile and color keeps the house looking the way it did. Shingles are a poor substitute on a low-pitch porch roof, since water backs up under the tabs. Where the porch roof meets the wall of the house, the flashing has to be tucked into the siding or the mortar joint, not just sealed with caulk.
Mature Trees, Tight Lots and Moss Near the Beaver River Mouth
Beaver sits near the mouth of the Beaver River where it meets the Ohio, and the moist river air shows up on the roofs. Moss grows on north-facing slopes, especially under the big shade trees that line the borough's residential streets. Moss holds water against the shingles and lifts the edges, so it is worth treating early. The same trees drop branches in summer storms and fill gutters every fall. The lots are close together, which affects how a job runs. Dumpster placement, material delivery and protecting the neighbor's yard during tear-off all get planned before the first day on site, and a dump trailer often fits where a full container will not.
