Pittsburgh Premium Roofing provides professional roof replacement in Pittsburgh, PA for residential and commercial properties across Allegheny County. Pittsburgh Premium Roofing replaces roofs on ground that does not always hold still. Before anyone prices squares, we measure the deck diagonals and look at what the house is standing on, because a hillside lot can rack a frame slowly enough that nobody notices.
Here is the part most contractors leave off the estimate. If your yard wall has cracked, your sash windows stick, the fence line bows, and the utility pole out front leans, a new roof is the wrong purchase this year. Those are signs the U.S. Geological Survey lists for slope movement here, and shingles fix none of them. Hire a geotechnical engineer first. We will say so on the estimate and quote a holding repair instead.
On lots that are behaving, we still settle the water route before the covering. Every square we install is a collection surface, and the leader carrying it has to finish somewhere lawful. Inside the city that rules out the sanitary sewer. On a slope it also rules out a splash block set four feet from a foundation wall, which is the cheapest answer and the one that does the most harm.
Pennsylvania's construction code treats a residential reroof as work the building code official permits, and it says plainly that relocating a drain leader is not an ordinary repair. We pull the permit through Permits, Licenses and Inspections and we do not open a roof before it is issued. Tear-off is full, down to the boards, because plank decking hides far more than it shows.
Punky decking at the eave gets swapped for plywood keyed into sound board so the plane stays true. Valleys go in as open metal with a raised center rib. Eaves, rakes and penetrations get self-adhered membrane. Fasteners are ring-shank at the pattern the exposure calls for, six per shingle where a ridgetop takes wind with nothing in front of it, and hip and ridge caps carry the field's own wind class.
The workmanship warranty is written and dated, and it stays in force as long as the leaders discharge where the estimate drawing puts them. If somebody later cuts a leader off at the wall to tidy up a garden bed, call us. That single change is the one that quietly undoes everything above it. The covering is the cheap half of this job. The route is the half that keeps on working.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — weak red claystone weathering under hillside colluvium, a leader carry line dimensioned in feet on the estimate, boxed cornice eaves with no soffit cavity to vent, plywood keyed into sound one-by plank decking, counterflashing set into a sawn mortar reglet with lead wedges, a framed cricket behind any stack wider than thirty inches — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Pittsburgh and nearby communities including Mount Lebanon, Bethel Park, Penn Hills, Ross Township.

Materials, equipment and how we do roof replacement
The difference between roof replacement that lasts and roof replacement that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with weak red claystone weathering under hillside colluvium, a leader carry line dimensioned in feet on the estimate, boxed cornice eaves with no soffit cavity to vent, plywood keyed into sound one-by plank decking, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Pittsburgh job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in Allegheny County means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Pittsburgh Chooses Pittsburgh Premium Roofing
- ✓We inspect the ground as well as the roof, using the warning signs the U.S. Geological Survey published for homeowners in this county.
- ✓Every estimate carries a drawing showing each leader, its size, its route, and the distance in feet from the wall to its discharge.
- ✓We say no in writing. Tile on unverified footings, standing seam on a moving frame, and coatings over cracking decks are all jobs we decline.
- ✓We name what we cannot do. The stormwater dye test and the evidence of compliance are a registered plumber's work, not a roofer's.
The standards behind roof replacement
Quality here is not a matter of opinion — it is written down. The roof replacement work we do in Pittsburgh follows published industry standards: NRCA publishes the Roofing Manual, the industry's reference for details and slope minimums, and Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association sets the shingle application and ventilation guidance the warranties reference. If a contractor cannot tell you which standard a detail comes from, that is worth asking about before you sign.
