Roof Repair in Lower Roxborough: what actually fails

Repairs in Lower Roxborough are often at the step down from the front pitch to the flat back roof, or along the party wall. Both are shared with a neighbor's roof on attached houses, so the repair is made to tie into theirs without lifting it.

The lower, older end of Roxborough, built up in the 19th and early 20th centuries along and below Ridge Avenue, toward Manayunk and Wissahickon.

  • Neighbors told before work at a shared edge
  • Back flat roofs cored for their layer count
  • Party walls and shared roof edges
  • The step from front pitch to back roof

04Before we arrive

What to do before anybody climbs a ladder

  1. Ask how many layers are on itA roofer can count them at an edge or with a small core on a flat roof. If nobody has looked, nobody can price the tear-off, and the difference turns up on the day.
  2. Ask how much comes off each dayOnly as much as can be dried in before the crew leaves. Ask what happens if rain arrives early, and what the roof is closed with overnight.

Note 01How urgent is roof repair?

It depends on what water is doing. Water coming in now, near anything electrical, or worse with each rain is urgent. A cracked shingle with a dry ceiling under it can wait for a dry day, which is also the right day to open the roof for it.

Note 02How much does it cost to repair a roof in Roxborough?

Most repairs fall inside the national estimate of $300 to $3,000, with an average around $900. On these houses the price follows the flashing: a run at a stone wall or a shared edge with a twin costs more than a few lifted shingles on an open slope.

Note 03Will the repair match my shingles?

As closely as the shingles still made allow. On an older roof an exact color match is rare, so the repair is placed and blended to read as weathering rather than as a patch.
