Rey Contractor | Roofing Services in Philadelphia, PA 19111

In our Philadelphia climate, chimney flashing failures and poor roof ventilation are frequent problems we encounter. Chimney flashing leaks often occur due to aging sealant or improper installation, allowing water into the home. We address this by carefully removing old flashing, inspecting the underlying structure, and installing new, code-compliant flashing with durable, weather-resistant materials. For ventilation issues, which can lead to attic moisture, ice dams, and higher energy bills, we assess your current system and recommend tailored solutions, such as adding ridge or soffit vents, to ensure proper airflow and protect your roof's longevity.

A repair is often sufficient for isolated damage, like a few missing shingles after a storm or a small leak. However, a full replacement is typically recommended when the roof is near or past its expected lifespan, shows widespread wear across multiple slopes, or has sustained significant underlying deck damage. During our thorough roof inspection, we evaluate the age, extent of damage, and condition of the decking. We provide a clear, honest assessment, explaining if a repair will be a reliable, temporary fix or if investing in a replacement is the more practical and cost-effective long-term solution for your home.

Absolutely. In fact, coordinating gutter and siding projects is often a smart approach. When replacing siding, we have clear access to the fascia board where gutters are mounted. This allows us to inspect and prepare the fascia properly and ensures a seamless integration of the new gutter system with your new siding. We can handle the removal of old gutters, any necessary fascia repairs, and the precise installation of new, correctly sized gutters in one efficient process. This coordination can improve the project's overall timeline, protect your new siding from water damage from the start, and often provides better value.
