Need roof leak repair in Philadelphia? We come look first, tell you plainly what it needs, and put the price in writing before anything starts.
If your Philadelphia roof has been caulked twice and still leaks, the caulk was never the answer. Most of the stubborn ones come down to flashing at a chimney or wall, a valley that was never lapped right, or fasteners that have backed out.
Our roof leak repair work in Philadelphia is handled by crews who do this every week, not by whoever happened to be free that morning. It shows up in the details — valleys, chimney flashing, eave and ridge closures — because that is where roofs actually leak.
We schedule your Philadelphia roof leak repair for a stretch of dry weather, keep the job site picked up as we go, and do not leave a roof open overnight. When it is done the tear off is hauled away and a magnet goes over the drive.
The order we work in, and why each step matters more than it looks.
Where the attic is accessible we go up with a light and follow the tracks back toward the entry point.
If it is not obvious we test with water rather than guessing and charging you for a repair that fixes nothing.
We repair what is letting water in rather than the symptom, which usually means reworking flashing instead of adding more sealant.
You get photographs of anything we spot, with no obligation to do a thing about it today.
What comes up on just about every estimate for a job like this.
Yes, and it is included. A Philadelphia roof old enough to leak in one place usually has a second one starting, and we would rather show you the photographs now than come back in six months.
We can usually get a Philadelphia roof covered and stop the water in the middle of weather, but the permanent repair waits for a dry stretch. Sealing something wet just means doing it twice.
Flashing, nearly always. Chimneys, wall tie ins, valleys, pipe boots and skylights account for most of the leaks we chase on Philadelphia homes. The open field of a roof is rarely the problem.
Most leak repairs on a Philadelphia home are a few hundred to around fifteen hundred dollars, depending on what has to be opened up and whether decking underneath has gone soft. The estimate is free.
Real feedback from homeowners we have worked for.
"Hail came through and they had photos and a written estimate to my adjuster in two days. Made the whole claim about as painless as it could be."
"Thank you so much to the entire crew at Roofing Brothers for our amazing new tin roof! You were amazing to work with and I couldn't recommend you to others enough! Great communication, pricing, color options, efficiency, and HONESTY! If anyone needs a new roof, I highly recommend this crew! Phenomenal job."
"They found a leak two other roofers could not. Turned out to be the chimney flashing, not the roof at all. Fixed in one afternoon and it has been dry ever since."
