A compact riverside community in Upper Merion Township, settled as Matsunk in 1710 and built out around the steel works along the Schuylkill.
Swedeland began as Matsunk, settled by Swedish colonists in 1710, and took its present shape around industry: limestone, iron ore, and from 1919 the Alan Wood Steel plant that ran into the early 1980s. The housing is worker stock on small lots between the Schuylkill River and Matsunk Creek, close-packed and mostly pre-war, with porches and rear ells. The business campuses came later.
Small lots change how we work. Staging, tear-off and debris have to be planned where there is no side yard, and the party-wall and porch details get more attention than the open field does. We work clean and we finish in one pass. Upper Merion Township issues the roofing permit under the PA Uniform Construction Code.

Staging and debris planned for lots with no side yard to work in.

Same office, same crews, a short drive away.
We terminate at the party wall and flash that junction so water cannot track either way. The important thing is not to cut corners where the two roofs meet, because that seam causes more callbacks than anything else on this housing type. If both owners go together, the result is cleaner.
The office is Upper Merion Township’s, and King of Prussia is a place name inside that same township rather than a separate municipality. So yes in practice, no in name: Upper Merion Township issues the roofing permit and inspects it under the Pennsylvania Uniform Construction Code.
Yes. It is normal work here. We plan where the dumpster sits, protect the neighboring property and the plantings, and use ground cover and magnets so nothing is left behind. Tight access affects the schedule more than it affects the price.
Often it is, and plank decking that old can be perfectly sound. What we find more frequently is localized rot at the eaves and around chimneys where flashing failed years ago. We check it at tear-off and replace what needs replacing rather than shingling over a soft deck.
