When your home’s protection depends on what’s overhead, you shouldn’t have to second-guess the people you hire. At Philly Roofing & Exterior Services, trust is more than a selling point—it’s the foundation of everything we do. Whether it’s a flat roof repair in South Philly or a full emergency response in Kensington, our team is fully licensed, insured, and bonded to protect you from more than just the elements.


🏠 Roofing in Philly: Why Licensing Matters

Pennsylvania doesn’t require general contractors to carry a state license—but the City of Philadelphia does. That means anyone working on your roof, siding, or exterior envelope in Center City or Strawberry Mansion must be registered and insured to pull permits and pass inspections. You can verify any roofing company’s status on the PA Attorney General’s website.

Unfortunately, too many fly-by-night roofers are still cutting corners. They leave homeowners vulnerable to:

  • Void warranties
  • Denied insurance claims
  • Improperly installed flat roofing membranes
  • No recourse if something goes wrong

We take that risk out of the equation. Our license number is clearly printed on all contracts, and we carry $2M in general liability insurance, along with workers comp coverage for every member of our crew. It’s peace of mind that costs you nothing but protects everything.


⚡ Emergency Roofing? We’ve Got You Covered.

One of the most common calls we get is:

“My ceiling is leaking—can someone come right now?”

The answer is yes. Our emergency roofing response team operates in Center City, Kensington, and South Philly daily. Whether it’s a weather event, aging membrane, or flashing failure, we respond quickly and patch what’s needed to minimize damage, then follow up with a permanent repair. Most importantly, we document everything for your insurance carrier.


🧰 The Little Things That Make Us Different

  • Before-and-after photo logs on every project
  • Written contracts with scope, timeline, and warranty info
  • City permits pulled on all applicable work
  • 10-year workmanship guarantee on all full roof installs

We’ve completed hundreds of flat roof repairs and membrane replacements across Philly rowhomes, especially in dense neighborhoods like Strawberry Mansion, where older rooftops require extra attention to detail.
