A small hamlet in Charlestown Township where a single property can easily carry three different roof systems at once.
Devault is a rail-side hamlet in Charlestown Township, north of the Great Valley and west of Phoenixville. It is a working place rather than a subdivision: farmhouses, barns, garages and later additions, scattered along a few roads and a siding. That mix means a single property often carries steep shingle on the house, standing-seam metal on a porch, and a flat or nearly flat section over an addition.
Each of those wants a different material and a different detail where it meets the next one. We quote them as separate systems and show you where they tie together, because that tie is where the leaks start. Roofing permits for Devault come from Charlestown Township under the Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code.

A shingle slope dying into a low-slope addition or a metal porch roof needs a transition detail built on purpose, and on older properties that detail is usually improvised.
EPDM or TPO belongs on a roof too flat for shingle to shed properly.
Standing seam suits porches and bays, and it moves as the temperature changes.
Barns and garages age faster than the house because nobody looks at them.
Charlestown Township issues and inspects the roofing permit for properties in Devault.
Same office, same crews, a short drive away.
No. Shingle needs pitch to shed water and a low-slope roof holds it, so water finds every nail. A single-ply membrane such as EPDM or TPO is the right system there, with the seam into the shingle slope flashed properly. That junction is usually the actual leak.
Charlestown Township. Devault is a place name inside the township, so the township’s code office issues the permit and performs the inspection under the Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code. Chester County is not involved. We handle the filing and the inspection appointment as part of the job.
Yes, and we usually recommend doing it with the house if both are due. The equipment is already there, disposal is one trip, and an outbuilding that leaks will ruin what is stored under it long before anyone notices from outside.
It is a scheduling question, not an obstacle. We check clearance, turning room and ground conditions before the dumpster and the shingle delivery are ordered. On some properties we stage materials nearer the road and carry in, which we price up front rather than after.
