Country roads, bigger roofs
Lower Saucon is spread out: the township maintains about 87 miles of its own roads, and its FAQ deals with deer, poultry permits and open burning as much as with sidewalks. Long driveways, wooded lots and outbuildings change the logistics of a replacement: where the dumpster goes, how materials are delivered and how much leaf litter the gutters collect.
The township's list of projects that typically need a zoning or building permit names roof replacement, so expect the contractor to apply for one. Farmhouses and barns may carry slate or metal; replacing a barn roof is a different job from a house roof, so say which building you mean when you call.
Like owners in Hellertown, some township residents have Hellertown mailing addresses. Permits still go through Lower Saucon Township.
