What affects the price

Replacing your roof involves several variables that shift your final bill. The total square footage of your property is the biggest factor, followed closely by the pitch or steepness of your roof, which dictates how safely crews can work. You will also need to choose your materials—architectural shingles, metal, or tile each carry different price points. We also have to account for the removal and disposal of your current roof, plus the condition of the underlying wood decking that might need repairs once the old shingles are off. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

Many homeowners prefer fall for roofing because the temperatures are moderate and the weather patterns are usually more stable than in spring. This makes it a great time to seal up your home before the winter snow or freezing rain arrives. It allows us to work at a steady pace, ensuring every shingle is placed perfectly before the climate turns harsh.

Frequently asked in Philadelphia

What's involved in getting a new asphalt shingle roof installed in Philadelphia?

The crew that comes out will first protect your property by covering landscaping and exterior features. Then, they'll remove your old shingles down to the roof deck. They'll inspect the deck for any damage and make repairs if needed. New underlayment and flashing are installed before the new asphalt shingles are laid, starting from the bottom edge and working upwards. Finally, ridge caps and ventilation are installed for a complete system.

When should I consider replacing my roof in Philadelphia?

You should start thinking about a new roof in Philadelphia if you notice curling or cracked shingles, or if you see granules collecting in your gutters. Significant moss or algae growth can also indicate moisture issues. If you've experienced repeated leaks, especially after storms, it's a strong sign a replacement is due. The specialist you'll speak with can assess the condition of your current roof.

What are the benefits of metal roofing for homes in Philadelphia?
How much does a typical roof repair cost in Philadelphia?
Are there specific roof shingles to avoid for Philadelphia homes?

While most standard asphalt shingles perform well, it's often advised to avoid the cheapest, lightest-weight options. These may not offer the best protection against hail or strong winds common in the Philadelphia area. Opting for shingles with a higher wind rating and good impact resistance is generally recommended for longevity. The specialist can guide you on suitable options.
