Residential & Commercial Roofing in Franklintown
Franklintown Roofing & Maintenance handles every roofing job from a single-shingle repair to a full commercial re-roof. Here's what we do in Franklintown.
Roof Replacement
Owens Corning Duration with SureNail technology or CertainTeed Landmark with NailTrak for reliable fastening in high-wind zones. Both meet ASTM D3462 and carry Class A fire ratings per UL 790. In Pennsylvania, we recommend the high-wind versions rated to ASTM D7158 Class H, which is 130 mph wind warranty. Full system install qualifies for Owens Corning Preferred Protection or CertainTeed SureStart Plus warranty.

Roof Repair
Quick repairs prevent expensive problems. A $400 flashing fix today prevents $4,000 of interior water damage next year. If a repair makes sense, we recommend it. If your roof is too far gone, we'll be straight about that too. Either way, you get an honest answer and a written quote.

Storm Damage Repair
Storm damage is time-sensitive. Most insurance policies in Pennsylvania require claims within 12 months. We do a free inspection, document every damaged area with photos and measurements, and help you file the claim. If the adjuster approves it, we handle the repairs at the insurance-approved price.

New Roof Installation
New construction underlayment per IRC R905 and ASTM D226 (felt) or ASTM D6757 (synthetic). Ice barrier per ASTM D1970 required at eaves in climate zones with average January temperature below 25°F. We install ice and water shield regardless. It's cheap insurance against ice dams and wind-driven rain. Drip edge per IRC R905.2.8.5 on eave and rake edges. Proper starter strip with factory sealant for wind resistance from day one.

Metal Roofing
Standing seam metal with Kynar 500 PVDF fluoropolymer finish. The gold standard for color retention and chalk resistance. We install Sheffield Metals and McElroy Metal panels in 24-gauge Galvalume steel. UL 2218 Class 4 impact resistance (qualifies for insurance discounts in most Pennsylvania markets). UL 790 Class A fire rating. Wind uplift rated to 140+ mph per ASTM E1592 testing. Concealed Z-clips allow thermal expansion without stress on fasteners. That's what makes standing seam leak-proof.

Shingle Roofing
Designer shingles like GAF Camelot II, Owens Corning Berkshire, and CertainTeed Grand Manor mimic premium materials. Slate, cedar shake, heavy wood. They cost 30-50% more than standard architectural shingles but the curb appeal is worth it for higher-end Franklintown homes. Full manufacturer warranties included.

Flat Roofing
TPO single-ply membrane in 60-mil or 80-mil thickness, fully adhered or mechanically attached over minimum R-25 polyiso insulation. Hot-air welded seams tested with a probe at every joint. We install per NRCA and manufacturer specifications with tapered ISO insulation creating minimum 1/4" per foot positive drainage. Ponding water is the number one cause of flat roof failure in Franklintown. Tapered insulation eliminates it. FM 4473 rated systems available for hail-prone areas. Fully warranted by Carlisle, Firestone, or GAF.

Gutter Installation
We hang gutters with hidden hangers screwed into the rafter tails or fascia board every 24 inches max. No spike-and-ferrule, no exposed hardware. Proper pitch is 1/4" per 10 feet toward each downspout. Too flat and water sits. Too steep and it looks wrong.

Roof Inspection
Annual inspections catch small problems early. A cracked pipe boot is a $150 repair. A year of water leaking through that crack causes $3,000+ in ceiling, insulation, and drywall damage. We recommend an inspection every 2-3 years for newer roofs, annually for roofs over 15 years.

Skylight Installation
Replacing an old leaking skylight is often cheaper than trying to repair it. New units from VELUX have Low-E laminated glass, argon fill, and No Leak guarantees when installed with the manufacturer's flashing system. Our Franklintown crews replace skylights in a single day.
