When you own property in a dense and historic city like Philadelphia, roof integrity isn’t optional — it’s critical. Between unpredictable weather, flat-roof architecture, and aging infrastructure, homeowners from Center City to Strawberry Mansion face roofing challenges that require experienced, licensed professionals. That’s where Philly Roofing & Exterior Services comes in.
We’re not just your average roofing company — we’re fully licensed, insured, and locally verified, offering peace of mind alongside expert workmanship. Whether it’s an emergency roofing repair after a storm or a long-overdue flat roof replacement, our team is trained to meet both your property needs and city code requirements.
🏙️ Real Stories from the Roof
In South Philly, we recently helped a client who had a persistent roof leak causing drywall damage in their tenant’s unit. After a thorough inspection, we discovered the original EPDM membrane had shrunk, exposing seams to heavy rain. We replaced the roofing system with a new, fire-rated TPO membrane and corrected slope drainage — all within 48 hours.
In Center City, an older brownstone required a full flat roof repair after its bitumen roof cracked from years of UV exposure. Our team removed the degraded layers, rebuilt the substructure, and installed a seamless, energy-efficient system designed to reflect heat and extend roof life.
🛑 Why Licensing and Insurance Matter
A shocking number of homeowners still hire unlicensed roofers — a decision that often leads to poor workmanship, invalid warranties, and even liability issues. According to the Pennsylvania Office of Attorney General, all contractors performing work over $5,000 must be registered and compliant with the Home Improvement Consumer Protection Act (attorneygeneral.gov).
Our credentials ensure:
- Compliance with Philadelphia permitting and inspection laws
- Full liability and workers’ comp coverage
- Manufacturer-backed warranties on materials and labor
- Seamless collaboration with property managers and HOAs
