Kimberton’s stone houses and mill buildings set the roof types here, and slate and cedar need different hands than asphalt.
East Pikeland follows French Creek through the middle of the county, with Kimberton at its center where Route 23 and Route 113 meet. Kimberton was laid out in the 1830s, and the village core is stone, steep-pitched and slate to begin with. Farms around it became Kimberton Greene, Coldstream Crossing and French Creek Manor from the 1960s onward. Phoenixville Area schools serve all of it.
Two kinds of roof work coexist here. On the old stock we repair slate and cedar, rebuild valley and chimney metal in copper where it belongs, and avoid the overlays that ruin an original roof. On the subdivisions it is straightforward architectural shingle replacement. East Pikeland Township issues the permit under the Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code.

Valley and chimney metal in copper outlasts the shingle or slate laid over it.

Most slate roofs come to us needing repair, not replacement. Individual slates can be pulled and reset with hooks or copper straps, and the usual failures are at valleys, chimneys and ridges rather than in the slate itself. A full strip only makes sense once the fasteners have failed across the whole roof.
It is used on plenty of them, and on a rear slope or an addition it is a reasonable choice. On the visible front elevation of an original stone house, a heavy architectural or a synthetic slate holds the look far better. We will show you both and let you decide with the price in front of you.
For the permit itself, East Pikeland Township is the authority under the Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code. If your property sits in a neighborhood with a homeowners association, that association may have its own color and material rules, which is separate from the township. We ask about both before ordering material.
Valleys carry water off two planes, so they see several times the volume the open field of the roof does. On steep Kimberton-era roofs that water moves fast and hard. Metal-lined valleys with ice and water membrane underneath last; woven shingle valleys on a steep pitch usually do not.
