MG ROOFING
Philadelphia · Built Strong
Germantown & Mount Airy · 19144 · 19119
Stone twins, Victorians and big singles on deep lots along Germantown Avenue, most of them with steep pitched roofs and built-in gutters hidden behind the cornice.
What we see here
The detail work up here — flashing, box gutters, cornice and capping — is a large part of what we do. And on planes this steep and this visible, an architectural shingle laid to spec is the difference between a roof you notice and one you do not.
Street by street
Germantown & Mount Airy is not one kind of house, and the zip code you are in changes what tends to be wrong with the roof. Here is what we find where.
Stone twins and Victorians along Germantown Avenue with steep pitches, deep cornices and built-in gutters hidden behind them. The detail work — flashing, box gutter lining, cornice and capping — is the majority of what we do in 19144, and the ceiling is the last place a failure shows.
Big stone singles on deep lots with steep, highly visible roof planes and a lot of valley and dormer work. On a roof this exposed to the street, an architectural shingle laid properly to the manufacturer's nail line is the difference between a roof you notice and one you never think about again.

And on planes this steep and this visible, an architectural shingle laid to spec is the difference between a roof you notice and one you do not. What fails on them fails the same way every time, which is why we can usually tell you on the phone what we expect to find before we are on the ladder. Drag the handle — both frames are one roof, from one standing position.
