The air side of Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, straddling two similarly named townships. Which one you are in decides the paperwork.
The McGuire portion of Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst straddles New Hanover Township and North Hanover Township in the north of Burlington County, with Wrightstown Borough at the edge of it. For anyone holding a McGuire address who owns a house off the installation, the first practical question has nothing to do with shingles. It is which of those municipalities the property actually sits in.
It matters because permits in New Jersey are municipal. New Hanover and North Hanover are separate townships with separate construction offices, and the names are easy to confuse. We check the address against the municipal line before filing anything, then handle the permit and the inspection under the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code.

New Hanover and North Hanover run their own construction offices independently.
Cleared ground means wind reaches the ridge and rake edges first.
New Hanover or North Hanover Township issues the roof permit, never the county.
Same office, same crews, a short drive away.
It can be either New Hanover or North Hanover Township, because the base area spans both, and Wrightstown Borough sits alongside. Your deed or tax bill will say. We confirm it against the municipal line before filing, since the permit has to go to the right construction office to be valid.
Yes. We file with whichever township your address falls in, under the New Jersey Uniform Construction Code, post the permit on site, and meet the inspector at the end, so you are not scheduling anything or chasing paperwork. Maze Roofing is registered in New Jersey as HIC 13VH14277900.
The base and its privatized housing partner, through your housing office rather than through a private contractor. Housing on Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst is not permitted by the townships and not a homeowner decision. Privately owned houses in the surrounding townships are ordinary replacement work.
It works on the edges. Ridge cap, the rake courses and the starter strip at the eave take the first pressure, and shingles fastened at bare minimum spec lift there long before the middle of a slope moves. We set the nailing pattern and starter courses for open exposure instead.
