A Montgomery County township of villages and preserved farmland, where 1700s stone houses and 1990s developments share the same weather.
Lower Salford holds four villages: Harleysville, Lederach, Mainland and Vernfield. Around them sits farmland the township has spent decades protecting through its open space program. Route 63 and Route 113 carry most of the traffic. Housing runs from 1700s stone farmsteads near Heckler Plains to developments built in the 1980s and 1990s, and those two groups sit at very different points in a roof’s life.
We replace roofs on both. On the older houses that usually means steep pitch, prior repairs to undo, and decking that has to be checked before anything new goes down. On the newer ones it is flashing, valleys and ventilation. Permits for roof work here are issued by Lower Salford Township under the PA Uniform Construction Code, and we handle the filing.
The full Maze Roofing range, residential and commercial, from the local team.
Shingle, tile, metal and flat roofing for homes and townhomes across the area.
Shingle, tile, metal, flat and TPO. Managed from tear-off to cleanup.
Flat, TPO and metal systems, with maintenance programs that protect the asset.
Storm damage, active leaks and fallen trees, with 24/7 phone response.
Freeze-thaw cycling works on both, but it finds brittle slate and tired flashing on the old stock and undersized ventilation on the newer builds.
Pre-war pitches need staging and fastening that respect the deck underneath.
Ice-and-water underlayment along the eaves stops meltwater from backing under shingles.
Intake and exhaust balanced so the deck stays dry through winter.
Roofing permits are filed with Lower Salford Township, not with Montgomery County.
Same office, same crews, a short drive away.

Yes. Roof replacement is permitted through Lower Salford Township under the Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code. The county is not involved. We pull the permit, schedule any required inspection, and keep the paperwork with your file so it is there if you sell the house later.
A 1970s house has almost certainly been re-roofed at least once, sometimes over the original layer. What matters is what sits under the top covering: how many layers, what shape the deck is in, and whether the flashing was replaced or reused. An inspection answers that in an hour.
Warm air leaking into the attic melts snow on the roof, and the water refreezes at the cold eave. The fix is usually ventilation and air sealing, not heat cable. When we replace a roof here we also run ice-and-water underlayment up from the eave so any backup cannot reach the deck.
Yes. Older houses need different handling: protection for plantings and stonework, staging rather than ladders on steep runs, and care around chimneys and original trim. We look at the deck before quoting, because on a house that age the surprise is usually the wood, not the shingle.
