Universal Roofing and Contracting is a Philadelphia based roofing contractor and full service roofing company. We've been replacing and repairing roofs since 2004. We cover the entire city of Philadelphia, suburban Philadelphia and Main Line. We offer complete exterior and roofing services. While we do specialize in repairing, replacing & installing roofs, we also have expertise in other related services.
At Best Philly Roofer, we understand that problems with your roof rarely present itself at a convenient time. More often than not, leaky roofs are only discovered during heavy storms. High winds, tornadoes, micro-bursts, hail can all cause damage to a roof. Once a roof is compromised, it needs to be repaired as soon as possible to mitigate further damage.
At Universal Roofing and Contracting we repair and replace any type of commercial roof and residential flat roof. Our crews are specially trained and certified to handle any type of flat roofing materials. These professionals install flat roofing only with materials like built-up roofing, EPDM, TPO, and modified bitumen.
Universal Roofing and Contracting specializing in fixing leaking roofs fast. We promise to find the cause of the leak and fix it the first time. We understand residential and commercial construction and inspect 1000's of properties per year so we can find the underlying cause of the leak. Often times it's not the roof - flashing, fascia, soffits, gutters, poor installation techniques, failed materials can cause a leaking roof.

I had roof damage after a hurricane came through and needed a whole new roof because of the age of the old roof. Joe Taylor was extremely helpful and professional through the whole process - he gave me a fair quote and helped me deal with the insurance company once we signed the contract. He was always available to help with any questions I had.
The team came out and totally replaced my roof in 2 days - this included removing 5 layers of old roof going back to cedar shingles. These guys are pros, I had a great experience with Universal and would definitely recommend them.

I had my siding and roof done June/July 2021 to address a leak in my indoor porch. I received quotes from several different companies and decided to go with Universal. They weren’t the cheapest or the most expensive, nice price for the scope of work. It took about two to three weeks to get started, and about a month to complete. I wasn’t upset about the start time, seeing as there is a labor shortage and all. I was upset about how long it took to complete the job. I spoke with the owner directly throughout the process. The quality of work was an issue initially. However, the owner was very

They were very affordable and did a great job! My roof leak is fixed perfectly and the silver coating is helping with the summer heat. Fairly communicative, although I did not get a call when the job was completed. Would definitely use them again though should the need ever arise!

Contacted Universal roofing for estimate. Joe Taylor came to my house and took photos of what needed to be done. A very fair price was given and a date was set up to start my roofing project. Repair men arrived on the date that was promised and were very professional and courteous. After working very hard they finished the roofing and cleaned up and removed all materials that were left over. In addition, they took photos of the completed work which showed what was done as the contract explained. Very happy with this experience. Highly recommended!

I had three new roofs replaced by them in 2017. Two of them leaked in 2018. They came out fixed one and could't find the cause of the other one and said the water probably from my neighbor's roof, but my neighbor does not have any leaks. The one fixed leaks again two years later in 2020. I called two weeks ago and was told someone would call me to schedule a time. After 5 more calls I haven't received a call from them.
Update on 11/13/2020: I am going to record to see how long it takes them to contact me to schedule. FYI, every time I called, there was someone answered the phone and said would

Worked closely with the Universal Roofing and Contracting Team after we moved into a house that needed a complete roof replacement. The experience was nothing but amazing. I worked closely with Jim to schedule and the team that came out was prompt, thorough, informative and precise.
The team replaced the entire roof in half a day and the the work was pristine.
Too boot, It rained shortly after the replacement and there was some standing water / puddling on the roof. I sent a picture to Jim, the team came back out and made some custom / ad hoc changes to the roof to make sure it slopped a bit

We used universal to do a flat roof and wall last year. Good price and they were very efficient. This year we needed some roof work done on a shingle roof as well as putting up new siding. Price was right and they did everything in one day. Joe is great to work with on estimates! Several neighbors have used them after we referred them and all were happy as well. We're in the Mt airy neighborhood. It's nice to have a go to company that I trust.
