Lambertville is essentially one large historic district — the entire small city along the Delaware River across from New Hope, PA, is National Register-listed. Our Lambertville work is almost entirely high-grade restoration: slate, cedar shake, copper, and historically-correct architectural-shingle profiles on 1820s-1900s Federal, Greek Revival, and Italianate buildings.
Delaware River flood exposure affects insurance and elevation but not roofing directly. HPC review is required for visible exterior changes throughout the city.
