Roofing Services Across Philadelphia
Every job below is work our crews do on Philadelphia roofs, from a single pipe boot to a full commercial re-roof. Start with the problem you are seeing and the page for it explains what the fix involves.
Philadelphia roofing work falls into seven groups: repairs, replacements and new roofs, flat and commercial systems, storm and emergency work, exterior water management such as gutters and siding, masonry and rowhome details such as pointing and cornices, and inspections and maintenance. Most rowhome calls start with a flat roof leak; most twin and single calls start with shingles, flashing or gutters.
Roof Repair in Philadelphia
Most roofs that leak are repairable. These pages cover finding where water gets in and fixing the detail that failed, whether that is a flat roof seam, a shingle tab, a chimney joint or a skylight curb.
Replacement & Installation in Philadelphia
When repairs stop buying years, the roof comes off to the deck and a new system goes on. These pages cover the choice between shingles, membranes and metal, and what a complete job includes.
Flat & Commercial in Philadelphia
Low-slope roofs on businesses, apartment buildings and rowhomes share the same weak points: seams, drains, parapets and rooftop equipment. These pages cover installing, repairing and extending them.
Masonry & Rowhome Details in Philadelphia
Rowhouse fronts and rooflines carry masonry and trim that shed water as much as the roof does: mortar joints, chimneys, cornices, parapets and wood trim. These pages cover repairing and protecting them.
Storm & Emergency in Philadelphia
After wind, hail, ice or a fallen limb, the first job is stopping water and the second is documenting the damage. These pages cover both, around the clock.
Exterior & Water Management in Philadelphia
Water that leaves the roof still has to get off the house. Gutters, downspouts, trim, siding and attic ventilation decide whether it does, and whether the roof edge rots.
Inspection & Maintenance in Philadelphia
Scheduled checks catch small failures before they become leaks, and give buyers, sellers and lenders a written view of the roof's condition.

How the Work Splits on Philadelphia Houses
A typical rowhome has a flat main roof, often a lower flat roof over the kitchen or a rear addition, and parapet walls it shares with the neighbors. Its problems are seams, scuppers, coping and ponding, so its work lives mostly under flat roof repair, replacement and coatings.
A twin or single usually has a pitched shingle or slate roof, a porch roof, a chimney and a full run of gutters. Its problems are wind-lifted shingles, flashing, ice at the eaves and overflowing gutters. Many houses here have both kinds of roof, and one visit can cover every section.
