Roofing Built for Wilmington Homes

Half of Wilmington's roofing work isn't shingles at all. The row homes have flat and low-slope roofs — modified bitumen, rolled asphalt, or an old built-up system — with parapet walls, shared drainage, and a scupper or internal drain that clogs and backs water up under the membrane. In the Highlands and Westover Hills you'll instead find steep colonials, some with original slate and copper valleys.

We assess which system your house actually needs rather than defaulting to architectural shingle. On flat roofs that means self-adhered or torch-applied modified bitumen or TPO, new flashings at every parapet and penetration, and drainage cleared and corrected. On steep roofs it's a full tear-off, deck repair, ice and water shield, and shingle or metal to spec. Access in a row home is planned in advance — no equipment blocking your neighbor's stoop for a week.
