An old forge village in South Coventry Township, where steep pitches and stone walls make the roof a careful job.
Coventryville is a crossroads village in South Coventry Township, in the hill country where Route 23 and Route 100 cross near French Creek. Iron work built it, and much of the building stock is still stone and heavy frame from that period. The roofs are steep, the walls are masonry, and the two meet at chimneys, parapets and dormers that were detailed by hand.
A steep roof sheds water fast, and that is an advantage right up until the flashing has a single gap. We cut counterflashing into the masonry instead of sealing over it, rebuild valleys rather than covering them, and stage properly for the pitch. Permits for Coventryville are issued by South Coventry Township under the Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code.

On a steep slope rain reaches the eaves in seconds, so a flashing joint that would weep slowly on a shallow roof here pushes water straight into the wall.
Metal cut into a mortar joint lasts; sealant smeared over stone does not.
Roof jacks, planks and fall protection are part of the plan on these pitches.
A wide chimney on a steep slope needs a cricket to divert water around it.
South Coventry Township issues the permit and inspects the work when it is complete.
Same office, same crews, a short drive away.
Usually the joint between them. Step and counterflashing where the chimney passes through the roof is the most common source, and on a stone or brick chimney it has to be let into the mortar. A crown or cap problem is the other candidate, and we check both.
Yes. Coventryville has no separate government, so South Coventry Township issues the roofing permit and performs the inspection under the Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code. The county is not involved. We apply, post the permit and coordinate with the township inspector as part of the work.
Yes, with staging rather than ladders alone. Roof jacks, planks and anchored fall protection go up first, and that adds setup time to the schedule. Anyone who quotes a steep roof at the same day rate as a ranch has not looked at it properly.
Not if the material is chosen with care. Heavy architectural shingle in a dark slate or weathered tone sits well against stone, and standing-seam metal suits a porch or a small rear roof. We bring samples to the house and hold them against the wall in daylight.
