About
The business in short: the Roxborough roofs we work on, how a job gets scoped and priced in writing, and the kinds of work we say no to.
A Roxborough roofing business built around the open-roof day
Leverington Roofing works Roxborough and its neighbors: replacement, repair, leak tracing, emergency cover, flat roofing and storm damage, on housing that runs from 19th-century row homes in Lower Roxborough to the post-1950 singles and old farmhouses of Upper Roxborough and Shawmont.
The site is built around one thing this market has written down: a strip-down that turned a small leak into a big problem. Every quote here counts the layers and prices the deck first, every tear-off is sized to what can be closed the same day, and every owner sees the bare deck before it is covered.
- Roofing only, no siding, windows or general remodeling
- No storm paperwork of any kind
- Roxborough, Manayunk and Wissahickon only
- No price without seeing the roof, and what is under it where possible
Four steps, no surprises
Layers counted and deck priced before the roof is opened, and a written quote before any work starts.
Call with the address
Tell us what you are seeing: a stain, a drip, shingles in the yard, a flat roof holding water.
Count what is under it
The top layer, then the edge where the layers show, then the attic or the underside of the roof where there is one.
A written quote with the unknowns priced
The work in plain language, the layer count, and a rate per deck board for whatever turns out soft, so the day the roof is open has no surprises in it.
Open it, close it, show it
Only as much stripped as can be dried in before the crew leaves.
How to tell a good roofer in Roxborough, PA before you hire one
Every one of these is checkable, and every one of them is on ours.
They count before they price
A roofer who quotes a tear-off without knowing how many layers are on the roof is guessing. A good one looks at an edge, and the attic, first.
They plan the open day
They can tell you how much comes off each day, how it is closed overnight, and what happens if the weather turns.
They are careful with flashing
This market's own words: roofers who "aren't sloppy with the flashing". Metal renewed at walls and chimneys, not sealant over the old.
They put the numbers on paper
The Pennsylvania home improvement registration number, the Philadelphia license, the scope and the price on a written quote, and on a replacement, the permit from L&I.
