If you need a roofing contractor in Bridgeport, it helps to know this small Montgomery County borough sits right on the Schuylkill River across from Norristown. It became its own borough in 1851, and many of its homes have been standing for over a hundred years. Most of them are twins, rowhomes, and small single homes packed close together on narrow streets. That makes roof work tricky. There isn’t much room to set up ladders or equipment, and when two homes share a roof, a problem on one side can easily leak into the other. Catalfano Brothers has done plenty of work on homes like these, and we know how to get the job done without disturbing your neighbors.

Many Bridgeport homes have a flat roof on the back of the house. These roofs don’t drain as well as slanted ones, so water can sit on top and slowly find its way inside. Older homes may also have several layers of shingles stacked on top of each other, which can hide rotted wood underneath. We’ll take a close look, tell you exactly what we find, and explain your options in plain language. Being next to the river also means extra moisture and rough storms, so we keep an eye on your gutters and any spots where water might be getting in. We’ve been doing roof repairs and replacements in Bridgeport and nearby towns since 2003. If your roof is leaking or getting old and you need a Bridgeport roofing contractor, call us for a free inspection and estimate.

Bridgeport, PA Roofing Contractor

We are a CertainTeed Select ShingleMaster contractor with more than 20 years in the roofing business. Bridgeport’s homes are mostly older twins and rowhomes on narrow streets, and we’re used to working in those tight spots. Our work covers repairs, replacements and new roof installs, and we’re comfortable with asphalt, cedar shake, slate, tile and metal. Catalfano Brothers also installs siding, windows, doors and gutters, and we’re a 5-Star Vinyl Siding and Trim contractor. If you’d like to see more of the area we cover, take a look at our Montgomery County roofing contractor page.

Bridgeport Flat Roofing Contractor

Flat and low-slope roofs need a different approach than a pitched roof. Water doesn’t run off as quickly, so the roofing has to be fully sealed. Many Bridgeport homes have flat roofs on the back of the house, and those tend to hold water. We install EPDM rubber, TPO and fiberglass systems that are built for that kind of roof. If yours has started to bubble, crack or hold water after a storm, it’s time to have it checked. Call (215) 884-1266 for an estimate.

Bridgeport Roof Repairs

Some roofers only want to do full replacements. They’ll put a new roof on quickly and move to the next job, and rushed work like that can cause problems with your manufacturer’s warranty down the road. When two Bridgeport homes share a roof, a leak can start on one side and show up on the other, so we check both. We take on repairs as well as replacements, because a well-done repair can buy you years before you need to spend the money on a new roof. When a replacement is the better call, we’ll explain it plainly. You can reach us at (215) 884-1266.

Is It Time to Call a Roofer in Bridgeport?

Water spots inside: Stains on the ceiling or walls are often the first sign of a roof leak. The sooner it’s found, the cheaper it is to fix.

Moss or dark streaks: Moss holds moisture against the roof, and heavy growth can lift and loosen shingles over time.

Damaged flashing: Rusted or loose flashing around chimneys, vents and skylights is one of the most common causes of leaks.

Soft spots: A roof that feels spongy underfoot may have rotted decking that needs to be replaced.

Shingle Roofing Contractor for Bridgeport

Our customers like asphalt shingles because they get a nice-looking roof that doesn’t break the bank. The pitched fronts on Bridgeport twins and singles are usually shingled, and many have layers that should be torn off. There’s more to a good shingle job than nailing them down, though. Valleys, chimneys, skylights and walls all need to be flashed correctly, and that’s where most leaks start on poorly installed roofs. We take our time on those details. To get started on a new asphalt roof, call Catalfano Brothers at (215) 884-1266.

Bridgeport Commercial Roof Repair and Replacement

We’ve worked on all kinds of commercial buildings over the years. DeKalb Street is Bridgeport’s main drag, and a lot of the storefronts there are old enough to need a new flat roof. Each building has its own roof and its own set of needs, so we start with an inspection and put together a plan that fits the structure and the budget. For new commercial construction, we’ll coordinate with your architect and contractors. We also offer maintenance plans so small problems get caught before they turn into big ones. Reach our commercial team at (215) 884-1266.

Roofing Questions From Bridgeport Homeowners

How long will my new roof last?

A properly installed roof typically lasts:

• Architectural shingles: 30-50 years
• Metal roofs: 40-70 years
• Slate: 100-200 years

How long yours lasts depends on the materials, ventilation, weather exposure and maintenance.

How much does a new roof cost?

There’s no single price, because size, pitch, materials, decking repairs and old layers all change the cost. For most homes it lands between $7,500 and $25,000. We’ll give you a free written estimate, and you’re under no obligation.

Why do the flat back roofs on Bridgeport twins and rowhomes leak?

Water sits on flat roofs instead of running off, and over time that opens seams and breaks down older coatings. We repair or replace them with modern membranes that stay watertight.

Can I finance a new roof?

We do. Flexible financing lets you spread the cost of a new roof into affordable monthly payments, and our team can explain the options when we give you your estimate.

Do your roofs come with a warranty?

New roofs qualify for Owens Corning’s Platinum Preferred Warranty. It covers the shingles for 50 years and the workmanship for 50 years, so both the materials and the installation are protected.
