Falls Township, Bucks County, PA

Roofing, Siding & Windows in Falls Township, PA
— Quoted in 15 Minutes.

Falls Township was legally established in 1692 at the head of the navigable Delaware, and it still carries that water with it — a FEMA-mandated floodplain ordinance governs development across the township, from historic Fallsington to the Fairless Hills and Levittown stock. The FEMA maps effective March 16, 2015 name the specific parcels inside the Special Flood Hazard Area — we pull that parcel layer on the aerial before building the 3D model of your house, so the written quote you receive on the Zoom already reflects exactly where your lot sits relative to the flood line, with no site visit required to determine that status.

About Falls Township, PA

From Fallsington
to Fairless Hills.

34,4052024 Est. Population
1692Legally Established
1686King's Highway Ordered

Falls Township was legally established in 1692 — the same year William Penn donated the land for the Fallsington courthouse — and English Quakers were the first to settle permanently here. The Provincial Council ordered the King's Highway, now Route 13, built through Falls in 1686 along an Indian trail, and the township sits at the upper end of the navigable Delaware. The subcounty population file puts 34,722 residents in Falls at the 2020 enumeration base and 34,405 by the 2024 estimate. Its housing carries that whole arc: Fallsington, a crossroads village whose courthouse predated Bristol's, was the township's largest village and commercial center until the post-war construction of Fairless Hills and Levittown, portions of which lie inside Falls. So a Falls home is either centuries-old village stock or mass-built 1950s suburban — and either way, the township's flood geography is part of the job.

What Shapes Exterior Work in Falls Township

A Township Under a Floodplain Ordinance.

Falls is required by FEMA to adopt and enforce an ordinance regulating development within flood hazard areas, and the township is blunt about the stakes: if it fails to enforce that ordinance, no property within Falls would be eligible for the National Flood Insurance Program. That single requirement reorganizes how exterior work near the water is planned:

  • Special Flood Hazard Areas: the FEMA maps that took effect March 16, 2015 identify the township's SFHA, and the ordinance's development standards reach even accessory structures — we check where your lot sits before specifying anything.
  • Two housing eras: a Fallsington-era home and a Fairless Hills or Levittown house wear completely differently; we scope yours off the actual structure, not a township average.
  • Head of the navigable Delaware: a township at the upper limit of the navigable river carries low-lying parcels where grade, drainage and moisture detailing have to be deliberate.
  • River-valley winter and storm exposure: the March 2015 FEMA maps that identified the SFHA were drawn in part because low-lying Delaware River parcels collect and hold water — those same parcels see freeze concentrate at grade through winter, and summer storm events push moisture into fascia and soffits on the oldest Fallsington rooflines and the flattest Levittown profiles alike.

If your home is clear of the mapped flood area the work is straightforward; if it is in it, getting the floodplain-ordinance detailing right is exactly where we earn the job.

Where We Work in & Around Falls Township

19030 & 19054 — and the Border Towns.

Falls spans three ZIPs: Fairless Hills 19030, plus 19054 and 19067 across the Levittown sections, and the whole township sits inside the Pennsbury School District alongside Lower Makefield Township and the Tullytown and Yardley boroughs. The permit runs through the Code Enforcement & Zoning Department at 188 Lincoln Highway — the same office that holds the floodplain ordinance files:

19030 19054 19067 Bristol Township Middletown Township Lower Makefield Township Tullytown Borough

The three municipalities that share Falls' borders — Bristol Township to the south, Middletown Township to the north and Lower Makefield Township to the west — all fall inside the same Pennsbury School District corridor; any homeowner in that corridor who sends an address gets the same FEMA-parcel check against the March 2015 flood maps before a number is written.

Same craftsmen, same materials, same warranties as any in-home contractor — without the in-home sales pitch.

Roofing in Falls Township

A Fallsington-era roofline and a 1950s Fairless Hills roof have nothing in common. We measure yours from the aerial and spec tear-off, decking and venting for that house, with extra drainage attention where the lot sits inside the mapped flood area.

Siding in Falls Township

Cladding on a centuries-old village home is a different job from re-siding a post-war suburban box. We render the profile and color on your real elevation in 3D, with moisture detailing weighted for proximity to the Special Flood Hazard Area.

Windows & Doors in Falls Township

Original openings in a Fallsington home rarely match a Levittown footprint. We measure each one off the facade and aerial and let you try energy-efficient styles on the real house in 3D, properly flashed where flood exposure demands it.

Fences in Falls Township

The floodplain ordinance's development standards reach even accessory structures, so a fence run near the SFHA is planned with that in mind. We pull your real parcel, render the run in 3D, and handle the Code Enforcement & Zoning permit at 188 Lincoln Highway and the utility marking.

Why Falls Township Homeowners Choose D'Bros

We Plan Around the Flood Map.

We Read the SFHA First

Falls is required by FEMA to enforce a floodplain ordinance, and the maps in effect since March 16, 2015 set the Special Flood Hazard Area. We check where your lot sits relative to that line before we spec a single course of shingles or siding.

One Permit Office: 188 Lincoln Highway

The Code Enforcement & Zoning Department administers both the building codes and the floodplain ordinance. We file the permit, account for the flood standards where they apply, and carry the inspections so you do not work the township office.

Flood-Aware, Without a House Call

At the head of the navigable Delaware, the part of the job that matters most is whether your lot is inside the mapped flood area — and that is exactly what aerial imagery and a 3D model settle on screen. Send the Falls address; the flood-aware quote comes back over one 15-minute Zoom, and the install crew is the first time anyone stands on the property.

Falls Township FAQ

Questions Falls Township Homeowners Ask.

My Falls Township lot may be in a flood zone — does that change the exterior work?
It can. Falls is required by FEMA to enforce a floodplain ordinance, and the maps in effect since March 16, 2015 identify the Special Flood Hazard Areas; the ordinance's development standards reach even accessory structures. We check where your specific lot sits and weight grade, drainage and moisture detailing accordingly before specifying roofing or siding.
My home is in old Fallsington — is that different from a Fairless Hills house?
Very. Fallsington is a centuries-old crossroads village whose courthouse predated Bristol's and was the township's commercial center until Fairless Hills and Levittown were built. A Fallsington-era home and a post-war suburban one need different roofing and cladding plans, so we scope yours off the actual structure.
The Code Enforcement & Zoning office at 188 Lincoln Highway in Fairless Hills — does it handle both the building permit and the FEMA floodplain ordinance for Falls Township?
Yes. The Falls Township Code Enforcement & Zoning Department at 188 Lincoln Highway, Fairless Hills, PA 19030 — township phone (215) 949-9000 — administers building and plumbing codes and the township's floodplain ordinance under one roof. Because both reviews run through the same department, we prepare a single packet that addresses both, carry it through filing, and manage the inspection schedule from start to sign-off.
Falls Township spans Fairless Hills and Levittown sections — do the three ZIPs and Pennsbury School District all apply to the same project?
All three ZIPs — 19030 for Fairless Hills, 19054 and 19067 across the Levittown sections — fall inside one township and one permit authority. Pennsbury School District covers the entire township together with Lower Makefield Township and the Tullytown and Yardley boroughs; it is one of the few multi-municipality districts in Lower Bucks, so school district boundaries and township boundaries match here. One permit, one inspection office, one quote — regardless of which of the three ZIPs your address carries.
Why does the flood ordinance matter for a roof or siding job?
Because Falls warns that if it fails to enforce the ordinance, no property within the township would be eligible for the National Flood Insurance Program, and properties in flood hazard areas without insurance may not be eligible for a mortgage. Getting the detailing right inside the mapped area protects both the home and its insurability.
