Hershey is a company town that grew into a destination — Hersheypark, the medical center, the hotel and the chocolate works, surrounded by residential neighborhoods that range from Milton Hershey's original planned housing to substantial modern homes on large lots.
It is twenty minutes from our shop and one of our most demanding markets in the best sense: bigger roofs, more complex geometry, and homeowners who expect the finish detail to be right.
The older Hershey neighborhoods hold well-built planned housing from the early twentieth century — solid construction, moderate pitches, and roofs that have generally been maintained properly.
The newer stock is where the complexity lives. Larger homes with multiple intersecting roof planes, dormers, turrets, covered porches, sunrooms and rooftop transitions between different pitches. Every one of those intersections is flashing, and flashing is where roofs leak.
Material expectations run higher here too. We install more standing seam metal, more designer and Class 4 impact-rated laminates, and more copper accent work in Hershey than in most of our service area.
The Hershey and Derry Township area has taken damaging hail within recent memory, including the June 2023 event that brought stones approaching golf-ball size to parts of Dauphin County. On complex roofs with lots of elevations, hail damage is particularly easy to miss — an adjuster working through dozens of houses may simply not get to a rear dormer face.
That is where our documentation matters. We mark test squares on every slope, count impacts the way carriers measure them, photograph the soft metals, and meet the adjuster on the roof with the diagram in hand.
For homeowners replacing a hail-damaged roof here, we generally recommend at least pricing a Class 4 impact-rated shingle. Most carriers discount premiums for it, and in this part of the county the performance difference is not theoretical.
Premium replacements, metal roofing, and a steady volume of hail inspection and claim work.

What we bring to this specific area — not a list of adjectives, but the things that actually change how the job goes here.
Hershey's newer housing carries complex intersecting rooflines — dormers, turrets, covered porches, pitch transitions. Every one of those is flashing, and flashing is where roofs leak. Pricing this stock by the square produces a roof that fails at the joints.
On a roof with six or eight elevations, damage on a rear dormer face is exactly what a busy adjuster misses. Test squares on every slope and a diagram in hand at the inspection is what changes that.
We install more standing seam metal, designer laminate and Class 4 impact-rated product in Hershey than almost anywhere else in the service area, and we quote the carrier discount alongside the upgrade cost.

FAQs
Local answers to the questions we get asked most on these streets.
Quite possibly, and you will not see it from the driveway. The Hershey and Derry Township area has taken damaging hail within recent memory, including the June 2023 event that brought stones approaching golf-ball size to parts of Dauphin County. Hail bruises the mat under the surface rather than punching through, so the roof looks fine while it ages several times faster. The inspection is free.
Frequently yes on this side of the county. Class 4 is the top rating under the UL 2218 impact test, and most carriers discount premiums for it. Call your insurer, get the discount figure, and weigh it against the upgrade over twenty-five years — in a corridor that keeps getting hail the arithmetic often works.
That is most of what we do here. More planes means more valleys, dormer cheeks and pitch transitions, and the labour sits in the metalwork rather than the field. We itemise the flashing so you can compare our bid honestly against one that priced it by the square.
About twenty minutes east via US-322 — inside our normal service area with no travel surcharge, and scheduled work runs the same as it does in the city. After a widespread storm we work in severity order, so we give you an honest window rather than an optimistic one.
