Where Route 73 crosses Route 100, farmland gave way to developments. Many of those roofs answer to an association as well as to the township.
Gilbertsville is the center of Douglass Township, at the crossing of Routes 73 and 100 on the county’s northwestern corner. Almost half the township is still farmland, and its other villages, Congo, Niantic and Sassamansville, are small. The growth of the last thirty years came as planned developments, and a great many homes here sit inside a homeowners association with rules about roof color and material.
We work with that. Bring us your association’s guidelines and we will quote shingles that meet them, provide the product data the board asks for, and wait for written approval before ordering. The construction permit is separate and comes from Douglass Township under the PA Uniform Construction Code.

No, they are two separate things. The association controls appearance under your community’s rules; Douglass Township issues the construction permit under the PA Uniform Construction Code. You need both. We supply the product documentation for the board and file the township permit ourselves.
Usually a detail rather than the shingle itself. Fast-built subdivisions often got three-tab shingle, valleys shingled rather than lined, thin step flashing and nailing at the spec minimum. Those are the first things to go. An inspection tells you whether a targeted repair or a full replacement is honest.
Your association’s guidelines decide that, and they vary from a required color to a short approved list to nothing at all. We will read yours with you. Where there is latitude, an architectural shingle in a similar tone usually satisfies the board and performs better than what came off.
It does at the edges. Houses backing onto open fields take the full run of wind, and losses start at rakes, ridges and the first courses at the eaves. Sealed edge metal, a real starter strip and the rated nailing pattern are what keep those edges down.
