Roof Replacement and Repair Across Cambria County
We handle roof replacement and roof repair throughout Johnstown and the surrounding towns in Cambria and northern Somerset counties. Our crews work on the steep hillside lots and narrow streets found in neighborhoods such as Moxham, Kernville, Cambria City, and Westmont, where access requires careful planning around the older steel-mill-era homes.
Many of these 1900-1940 frame houses and row homes carry steep-pitch roofs with original slate over plank decking and brick chimneys. Heavy snow loads and ice dams from Laurel Highlands winters create recurring issues at eaves and valleys, which is why we inspect decking condition, chimney flashing, step flashing, and attic ventilation balance before any work is planned.
Our approach covers full tear-off replacements and targeted repairs on homes in Richland Township, Geistown, and nearby communities along US-219 and PA-56, adapting methods to the mix of slate, architectural shingles, and occasional flat sections over additions.
- Full tear-off roof replacement on steep-pitch homes with plank decking re-sheathing where needed
- Slate-to-shingle conversion that includes new underlayment, ice and water shield, and drip edge
- Flashing work at chimneys, walls, and valleys plus pipe boot replacement during repairs
- Attic ventilation upgrades with ridge vent and soffit intake vents to balance airflow
- Repairs for wind-driven missing shingles, hail bruising, and ice dam leaks in areas like South Fork and Windber
