The General Roof Contractors | Roofing Services in Philadelphia, PA 19154

In Philadelphia's climate, flashing around chimneys, vents, and skylights is prone to corrosion. We first conduct a thorough inspection to assess the damage. For minor corrosion, we clean and seal the area with specialized, weather-resistant coatings. If the flashing is severely compromised, we perform a complete replacement using durable, corrosion-resistant metals like aluminum or copper, ensuring a watertight seal that protects your home from leaks for years to come.

Gutter overflow is a frequent issue here, often caused by clogs from leaves and debris, improper pitch, or undersized gutters for your roof's drainage area. Our solution starts with a professional cleaning and inspection. We then correct the gutter slope for optimal water flow and, if needed, install larger-capacity gutters or add downspouts. This prevents water from cascading down your siding and pooling near your foundation, protecting your Philadelphia home's structure.

Absolutely. A professional roof inspection is the best defense. We specifically check for early signs of flashing wear and corrosion, as well as gutter alignment, blockages, and downspout function. Catching these issues early allows for simple, affordable maintenance instead of major repairs. We recommend an annual inspection, especially after severe weather, to keep your Philadelphia roof system functioning properly and avoid the water damage these common problems can cause.
