Roof Replacement in Philadelphia, PA
There is a point where repairs stop being economical: widespread deterioration, multiple leaks in different areas, saturated insulation, or a roof simply at the end of its service life. At that point a replacement costs less over five years than a string of patches.
We install asphalt shingle systems on sloped roofs and membrane systems on flat and low-slope roofs, with tear-off, deck inspection and correct flashing at every transition.
What a Replacement Includes
Tear-Off and Deck Inspection
Removing old layers so the deck can be inspected and any rotted sheathing replaced before new roofing goes down.
Asphalt Shingle Systems
Underlayment, ice and water shield at vulnerable areas, starter and ridge detailing, and manufacturer-specified fastening.
Flat Roof Systems
Membrane roofing suited to the building, installed with attention to seams, terminations and drainage slope.
Flashing Replacement
New flashing at walls, chimneys, vents and skylights rather than reusing tired metal.
Ventilation
Intake and exhaust ventilation reviewed and corrected so the new roof does not cook from underneath.
Cleanup
Debris removal, gutter clearing and a full site sweep at completion.

Replacing Roofs on Local Properties
On attached row homes we plan access, staging and debris handling in advance, because there is rarely a driveway to park a dumpster on. Coordination with neighbors on shared walls is part of the job.
For detached homes in Fort Washington and Willow Grove, tear-off and same-day dry-in is usually achievable, and ventilation upgrades are worth doing while the roof is open.
