Flat roofs are popular across Center City, Kensington, South Philly, and Strawberry Mansion—but they require extra attention when summer thunderstorms roll in. At Philly Roofing & Exterior Services, we’re seeing more calls for emergency roofing due to seasonal leaks.

Proactive Maintenance Checklist

Don’t wait for water damage—here’s what you can do now:
✅ Schedule a flat roof inspection
✅ Clear debris from roof & gutters
✅ Check flashing around vents & chimneys
✅ Look for ponding water after rain

Why Emergency Roofing Calls Surge in Summer

  • Sudden heavy rains can overwhelm older roofing materials
  • Wind-driven rain can exploit existing cracks or loose flashing
  • UV exposure in summer weakens older flat roofs over time
