Roofing services in Glenolden

Roof repair

The first sign is often a small leak or a few lifted shingles that you spot from the yard. ZIP 19036 is 76.7% owner-occupied, so most repairs here are on homes whose owners pay for them directly.

Call for roof repair

Roof replacement

You notice it first as shingles curling, granules in the gutters or stains on an upstairs ceiling. In the area, 88.5% of homes in the ZIP code were built before 1980, so a full replacement often means checking the original decking as well as the shingles. Roofers Hotline books the inspection, puts the scope in a written estimate before any work starts, and then the replacement is scheduled. Call to start with an inspection of your roof.

From the same number, Roofers Hotline also books roof replacement for this metro, photographed before the estimate is written.

Emergency roof repair

What you notice first is water: a drip in the attic, a wet ceiling or a missing section of shingles after a storm. NOAA's Storm Prediction Center has 64 hail reports within 15 km of the area since 2000, which puts the area in the High hail band, and May is the busiest month. Roofers Hotline answers calls 24 hours a day for emergency tarping and leak repair. Call as soon as you see water coming in.

The same storm often brings calls for what emergency roof repair includes too, with the estimate written before the work.

What shapes roof work here

Glenolden's homes are older than the Philadelphia average: the median home here was built in 1953, and 85% were built before 1980, against 84% in Philadelphia. In the ZIP code it is 88.5%, with a median build year of 1956. Roofs on houses that age tend to have been replaced at least once already, so the decking underneath deserves a look.

Hail adds to the wear. Delaware County logged 13 hail events of one inch or larger in NOAA's storm records since 2015, against 6 in Philadelphia County. Call Roofers Hotline for a roof inspection and a written estimate before any work starts.

Questions

Roofing questions in Glenolden

Does the age of Glenolden's houses affect my roof?

Yes. In the ZIP code, 88.5% of homes were built before 1980 and the median build year is 1956, so many roofs sit on older decking and framing. An inspection checks those layers along with the shingles. Call Roofers Hotline to book one and ask for the findings in a written estimate.

How much hail has the local county had compared with Philadelphia?

Delaware County logged 13 hail events of one inch or larger since 2015 in NOAA's storm records, against 6 in Philadelphia County. The largest stone in that record was 1.5 inches. After a hailstorm, call Roofers Hotline for an inspection of your roof.

Do ice dams form on roofs here?

Yes, on poorly insulated roofs. The nearest station logs 77 freezing days and 23 inches of snow in a normal year. Meltwater refreezes at the eaves unless the attic is sealed.

Key takeaways

  • Census figures date the typical home within the town limits to 1953, and 85% were built before 1980.
  • The nearest weather station records about 44 inches of rain a year, and most leaks start at flashing, pipe boots and valleys.
