Questions

Roofing questions in Folcroft

Are Folcroft roofs older than those in Philadelphia?

Yes, by share if not by median year. In ZIP 19032, 90.8% of homes were built before 1980, and the median year built is 1960. Philadelphia's share is 84%, though its median home dates to 1949. Older construction means more chances of worn flashing and underlayment. Call Roofers Hotline to book an inspection and get a written estimate for your roof's condition.

How much hail risk does the area have?

The area sits in the High hail band: 63 hail reports within 15 km since 2000, and the largest hail in county records measured 1.5 inches. May is the peak month. After a spring storm, check for dented gutters and bruised shingles from the ground. Call Roofers Hotline to schedule a post-storm roof inspection and receive a written estimate.

Why do roofs here leak?

Flashing and pipe boots fail first. About 44 inches of rain fall here in a normal year. A leak repair starts by finding where that water gets in.
