Sellersville Borough, Bucks County, PA

Roofing, Siding & Windows in Sellersville Borough, PA
— Quoted in 15 Minutes.

Sellersville was a lived-in village for 136 years before it was ever a borough — settled in 1738, not incorporated until December 7, 1874, the milestone its 2024 sesquicentennial marked. That long pre-incorporation core, tight and close-set and since ringed by later blocks, is the work here, and an old village house and a later ring-block house are not the same exterior job. Telling an 1738-core house from a later ring-block one is the first thing aerial imagery and a 3D model settle, along with the roof, walls and openings — and the whole written quote lands inside a single 15-minute Zoom.

About Sellersville Borough, PA

Settled 1738,
a Borough Since 1874.

4,5012025 Est. Population
1738Originally Settled
1874Incorporated Dec 7

The borough's own sesquicentennial record states it plainly: Sellersville was originally settled in 1738 but was not incorporated as a Borough in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania until December 7, 1874, the 150th anniversary its 2024 celebration marked. That 136-year gap is the whole story for exterior work — by the time it became a borough the village core was already long built, a tight older fabric that later residential blocks grew around. The Census Bureau's 2025 subcounty estimates put the borough at 4,574 in the 2020 base, 4,519 in 2024 and 4,501 in 2025 — roughly 4,500 people living in a compact borough where the 1738-settled core and the post-1874 additions share the same tight streets. The borough is administered by a Borough Council and a Borough Manager from Borough Hall at 140 East Church Street, and the practical point for a roof or siding job is which side of that 1874 line a house sits on — the long-settled core or the newer ring.

What Shapes Exterior Work in Sellersville

A Long-Settled Core in a Compact Borough.

A village settled in 1738, not incorporated until 1874, and tightly built before later blocks filled around it sets the terms here:

  • 136-year head start: the core that existed before any borough government was in place sits on tighter lots with steeper rooflines and older wall assemblies than the ring-block additions that grew after 1874 — the aerial distinguishes which category your house falls into before a spec is written.
  • Close-set borough lots: a compact borough packs houses tight, so eaves, valleys and party-wall-side details on the older core are scoped differently than a roomier later parcel.
  • Erosion, Sedimentation and Grading permit: Sellersville's own Forms & Documents page lists an Erosion and Sedimentation Control and Grading Permit Application as a separate required document alongside the Building Permit — drainage handling on a tight borough lot is built into the plan from the start, not added later.
  • Borough climate on deep stock: winter freeze-and-thaw and summer storm rain work into a pre-1874 Sellersville wall assembly at angles a post-incorporation ring-block house never presents — the old stock sat through more than 150 winters before borough government existed, and flashing and underlayment are detailed to that history.

A house that predates incorporation by more than a century and a house built after 1874 are different exterior jobs — the aerial tells us which yours is before the quote is written.

Why Sellersville Borough Homeowners Choose D'Bros

Built for a 286-Year-Old Village.

We Read the House Against 1874

Sellersville was settled in 1738 and only incorporated December 7, 1874, so the core was long built before it was a borough. Aerial imagery lets us place each house on one side of that December 7, 1874 line or the other — long-settled village side or ring-block addition — before the spec is written, so the scope fits that house and not a borough average.

Sellersville Borough FAQ

Questions Sellersville Homeowners Ask.

How does Sellersville's 136-year gap between settlement and incorporation affect my exterior quote?
Directly. Sellersville was settled in 1738 and not incorporated until December 7, 1874 — a 136-year gap during which the village core built up with no borough government setting uniform standards. Pre-1874 houses and post-incorporation ring-block houses differ in roofline pitch, lot width and wall assembly; aerial imagery distinguishes them before we write a scope, so the job is sized to your house and not to a borough average.
Where does the borough's Building Permit Application for Sellersville get filed?
Sellersville's permit counter is at Borough Hall, 140 East Church Street, Sellersville PA 18960 — 215-257-5075, weekdays 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM. The borough's own Forms & Documents page lists the Building Permit Application alongside a Zoning Permit, an Erosion and Sedimentation Control and Grading Permit, an Excavation Permit and a SALDO application. We assemble the full packet, walk it into the East Church Street counter, and track every inspection until the borough signs off.
Sellersville sat as a village for 136 years before it was a borough — does that gap matter for my house?
It absolutely does. The borough's own sesquicentennial record states Sellersville was originally settled in 1738 but not incorporated until December 7, 1874 — a 136-year gap during which the village core was built, rebuilt and densified with no borough government enforcing uniform standards. That long-settled pre-borough fabric is a different exterior job from the residential blocks that grew around it after 1874, and we identify which your house is from aerial imagery before we write a single spec.
Which Pennridge School District municipalities share Sellersville's ZIP 18960?
ZIP 18960 covers all of Sellersville Borough — a borough that traces its settlement to 1738 and its December 7, 1874 incorporation, with Borough Hall at 140 East Church Street as its single civic address. Pennridge is the school district for the borough, and our coverage runs the whole ZIP and out into the neighboring Pennridge communities we regularly quote and install across.
Is a site visit necessary before you can quote my Sellersville house?
No. Old-core house or post-1874 addition, neither needs a salesman at the door before the quote is written — the Sellersville address, an aerial read and a 3D model produce the scope, and the only vehicle that pulls up to the property first is the install crew's.
