FAQs
Is the roof inspection really free, and what does it include?
Yes. Our Philadelphia team provides a 100 % free, no-obligation inspection that includes a full walk-through of shingles or membrane, flashing, gutters, skylights, attic ventilation, decking moisture readings, and photos of any problem areas. You will receive a written condition report and replacement or repair recommendations at no charge.
How quickly can I schedule a free inspection in Philadelphia?
Most inspections can be booked within 24 hours. Submit the online form or call before 3 p.m. on a business day and we’ll aim for a same-day or next-day visit, even during peak storm season.
Do you work with my homeowner’s insurance for roof replacement?
Absolutely. After the inspection we document storm or age-related damage with date-stamped photos, assist you in filing the claim, meet the adjuster on-site, and negotiate scope and pricing using Xactimate, the estimating program most carriers use. You’re kept in the loop the entire time.
How long does a full roof replacement usually take?
Most Philadelphia single-family homes are completed in one day; larger or historic properties may take two to three days. We deliver materials the day before, protect landscaping with tarps, remove the old roof, inspect the decking, install underlayment, flashings, shingles or membrane, and perform a magnetic nail sweep and full cleanup before final inspection.
What roofing materials can I choose from, and which are best for the Philly climate?
We install asphalt architectural shingles, standing-seam metal, EPDM, TPO, modified bitumen, and cedar shakes. Architectural shingles remain the most popular for their cost-to-performance ratio and 30-year warranties. Metal excels in energy efficiency and snow shedding. Flat-roof systems like TPO and EPDM suit Philadelphia rowhomes. During your free consult we review pros, cons, and sample boards so you can compare durability, curb appeal, and budget.
Are you licensed, insured, and compliant with Philadelphia building codes?
Yes. We hold a City of Philadelphia Contractor License, carry $2 million liability and full workers’ compensation insurance, and pull all required L&I permits. Our crews follow Pennsylvania International Residential Code (IRC) standards, National Roofing Contractors Association (NRCA) guidelines, and manufacturer installation specs so your new roof qualifies for full factory warranty coverage.
