Roofer King of Prussia, PA

There is a vast sea of contractors out there today, who maybe gone tomorrow, making all sorts of promises and guarantees. If you are in need of a roof repair or replacement, our Project Managers are available to make an inspection and provide you with our recommendation so you can make the decision.

Most residential roofing contractors are enticed to promote a certain manufacturer or brand in order to earn free trips, cash bonus, and other incentives. Kaller Roofing chooses not to do that. We will recommend the best option for your project, which could include different shingle manufacturers, and price points to help you make the decision. But almost every time Kaller is going to recommend complete removal of the existing roofing shingles. Why? It’s the better job; we repair any damage to the wood roof deck, remove and replace old critically important metal flashing details.

You are welcome to schedule an appointment at our office to view our the shingle options from all the top shingle manufacturers.

We inventory new and salvage slate in various sizes and colors. Our crews are busy restoring and replacing slate roofs every day. So if you have a leak in your slate roof, we know how to fix it, if you’re considering a new slate roof, we know how to do it. With eighty years of experience Kaller Roofing has the know-how to get your slate roof project done right the first time.

You can schedule a visit to our shop to see our inventory and options available, colors, sizes, thicknesses, etc., and become informed and knowledgeable about making a slate roof decision.

We have many beautiful, expertly installed old tile roofs in and around King of Prussia. The chances are good that your tile is still in excellent condition, but if you are having leaks it’s probably not the tile causing the problem, but some metal flashing elements that have deteriorated and need to be replaced. The tile can last for hundreds of years, the copper or tin used in the flashing has a typical lifespan of fifty to seventy five years plus. Ludowici-Celadon was and is a major tile roofing manufacturer. We salvage and stockpile many of their different types of tiles and accessories, not to mention eighty years of experience taking these roofs apart, replacing deteriorated metal valleys or chimney flashings and putting the tile roof back together again like nothing ever happened.

Tile is an excellent choice if you are in the design or construction phase of new building. We would be happy to show you some of the projects we have performed from start to finish.

Flat roof technology has advanced greatly, some of us are old enough to remember roofing trucks towing a hot tar kettle. Today with the advancement of material sciences, we have many other types of systems to consider, depending on the project design and parameters. New materials such as EPDM, TPO, PVC, Mod-Bit and others which we can help you understand what’s best for your project.

Flat roofs are critically important to get right, because they are “flat roofs”. Water doesn’t rapidly drain away such as on a slope roof. Perhaps you have a ponding condition on your flat roof that requires attention with new tapered roof panels to provide positive pitch towards the drain. Proper flashing details need to be expertly completed at all drainage, side walls, chimneys and any other building elements that intersect the flat roof. So if a problem exists with the adjoining carpentry or masonry that needs repair in the course of the project, Kaller has the in-house manpower to perform the project in its entirety.

The first step in flat roof work is almost always the recommendation to remove the existing deteriorated roofing materials and flashing. Next inspect the roof deck for any needed repairs due to leaking and deterioration. Roofing over existing roofing materials only leads to problems. Many contractors look to skip the removal process because it is labor intensive, cost of debris removal, ability to address the underlying roof deck or adjacent wall, chimney, window, etc. deterioration. Putting a new roof on top of an old roof traps the moisture that will later vaporize and blister the new roof. Think about it like putting new rugs in your house on top of the existing rugs.
