Girard Estate & Point Breeze
Wider rows and twins with flat roofs and parapets on all four sides. There is more roof area here than the street frontage suggests, and the parapet terminations are what fail first.

South Philadelphia.
Narrow rows, flat roofs, parapets on all four sides and no room to work from — which is exactly the kind of roof we do most.

Street by street
Both halves of it.
South Philadelphia 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.
Passyunk Square & Whitman
Narrow two-storey rows, no driveway, no side yard and nowhere to put a dumpster. Access is the job in this part of the city — we stage tight, protect the pavement and the neighbours' cars, and clear the street the same day.

The same houses,

Access is the job here. We stage tight, protect the street and the neighbours, and clean up completely. 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.
Straight answers
South Philadelphia FAQ
Yes — South Philadelphia (19145 · 19148) is one of the neighbourhoods we cover regularly, along with Passyunk Square, Girard Estate, Point Breeze and the streets around them. Residential only.
Emergencies, the same day — that is what the 24/7 line is for. Free inspections and estimates, usually within the same week. We are in this part of the city every week.
It comes down to your roof, not your postcode: square footage, pitch, how many layers are coming off, decking condition and how much flashing there is. The inspection and the written estimate are both free, so you get a real number rather than a range.
Both, and in this city most houses need someone who does. Granulated cap sheet and coatings on the flat and low-slope sections, GAF shingle systems on anything pitched.
