Open farmland township at the county’s northwest edge, with old farmhouse roofs and large-lot new builds on exposed ground.
Upper Frederick is farm country. The Perkiomen Creek forms its eastern edge, Boyertown Area schools serve it, and the settled parts are small: Frederick, Obelisk and Perkiomenville. The housing is two things at once. Stone and frame farmhouses with steep roofs and tall chimneys stand in the same township as large-lot houses built on cleared fields over the last thirty years.
Both sit in the open, and open ground means wind gets full purchase on a roof edge. We nail to the manufacturer’s high-wind pattern, seal the perimeter properly, and rebuild chimney counterflashing on the old houses rather than tarring it. Roofing permits are issued and inspected by Upper Frederick Township under the PA Uniform Construction Code.

Storm damage, active leaks and fallen trees, with 24/7 phone response.
Roofs on cleared farm ground take the full force of nor’easters and summer squalls, and the damage almost always starts at an edge or a ridge.
Perimeter and ridge courses need the manufacturer’s high-wind nail pattern, not the minimum.
Tall masonry chimneys need real counterflashing, which tar over old metal never provides.
Barns, garages and sheds out here often need low-slope or metal systems instead.
Upper Frederick Township issues the roofing permit and inspects the finished work.
Same office, same crews, a short drive away.
Yes, and it often makes sense to do it in the same mobilization. Outbuildings usually have lower pitch than the house, so they may need metal or membrane rather than shingle. We price them as separate line items so you can decide what to do now and what to defer.
Upper Frederick Township. In Pennsylvania the municipality is the permitting authority under the Uniform Construction Code, so the township issues the roofing permit and performs the inspection. The county does not. We file the application and manage the inspection as part of the job.
Not necessarily. If the loss is confined to a ridge or rake and the rest of the field still has granule coverage and pliable mats, a repair with matched shingle is the honest answer. If the shingles are brittle and tabs keep letting go, the roof is telling you it is done.
On the right sections, yes. Standing-seam metal does well on porch roofs, bays and shallow additions, and it sheds snow. On a steep main field it is a cost and appearance decision more than a performance one. Architectural asphalt remains the default for the main roof in this market.
