Roofing in Drexel Hill, PA
Three miles north-east, and the densest twin and rowhome stock in the county.
The houses in Drexel Hill
Drexel Hill and the wider Upper Darby Township are largely 1920s to 1940s twins and rows — stone and brick fronts, shared walls, and a low-slope rear section on very nearly every one of them. It is the part of the county where flat-roof work matters most and where the party-wall detail has to be right.
What that means for the roofs
- Low-slope rear roofs over the kitchen, on almost every twin — the single most common roof in this township.
- Party-wall and parapet flashing shared with the neighbor, which needs handling without creating a problem next door.
- Access that is genuinely tight, with no side yard to stage from on a row.
- Box and built-in gutters on the older rows, which are a repair trade of their own.
What we do here
Roof replacement and repair, flat and low-slope work, gutters and siding — the same services as everywhere else, but the mix in Drexel Hill skews toward the specifics above. Estimates are free and James does them himself.

Roof Replacement
A full tear-off down to the decking, so anything rotten gets found and replaced instead of covered up.
More on thisRoof Repair
Most leaks are a flashing problem, not a whole-roof problem. The job is to find out which one you have.
More on thisFlat & Low-Slope Roofing
Rear additions, porch roofs and rowhome roofs. A different trade from shingle work, and the one most Delco houses eventually need.
More on thisWhat customers say
They were the only folks to actually touch the shingles and look closely at the project while I was getting quotes. Everyone else just looked from the street.
We just completed our 4th project with JPC. It's not always easy to find a solid contractor, but James is the best of the best. He answers the phone, shows up as promised, gives fair quotes (in writing) and makes sure you're satisfied with the results.
J. Parker replaced my roof on short notice during the holidays. The job turned out to be more than anticipated, since there were 4 layers of shingles that needed to be removed. J. Parker finished the job in one day, staying late because rain was forecast the next day.
