Why Ridgeline Roofing Co. of Philadelphia Is Kingston Estates’s Preferred Specialty Roofing Company
We’ve been serving the Delaware Valley for over 42 years, and Kingston Estates has been part of our route since the neighborhood was still young. Back then we were replacing the first generation of three-tab shingles as they failed; now we’re replacing the second generation, and the patterns are remarkably consistent from block to block.
Our Kingston Estates customers find us the same way their parents did: a neighbor recommends us after we handle a leak that nobody else could trace. We don’t chase storms. We’re not in a truck with out-of-state plates. We’re the crew that shows up when we say we will, in uniform, with photo documentation of every roof condition we find.
From our Philadelphia base, we’re typically on-site in Kingston Estates within 90 minutes during business hours, and our 24/7 live phone means you’re never waiting for a callback while water stains your ceiling.

Our Specialty Roofing Services in Kingston Estates
EPDM Roofing
EPDM is our go-to for Kingston Estates’s low-slope problem areas. On a 1968 split-level on Devon Drive, we found that the low-slope section over the garage had been laid with three-tab shingles that were curling and trapping moisture; per code we switched to a fully adhered EPDM membrane. The original 1×6 skip sheathing was delaminated on the main roof, so we replaced it with OSB before installing Owens Corning Duration shingles. EPDM handles the rapid freeze-thaw cycles of our nor’easter winters without cracking, and a properly installed system lasts 20-30 years on a garage bump or rear family-room addition.

Modified Bitumen
For Kingston Estates homeowners with larger low-slope sections or who want the redundancy of multiple plies, modified bitumen offers torch-applied or self-adhered installation with excellent puncture resistance. This matters on homes where tree coverage from mature oaks and maples drops branches during summer storms. We install both APP and SBS formulations, matched to your specific slope and drainage conditions. A typical modified bitumen job on a Kingston Estates split-level garage roof runs $4,200-$7,800.

Built-Up Roofing
The old-school gravel-surfaced BUR system still has a place in Kingston Estates, particularly on detached garages and small commercial outbuildings that date to the original 1960s development. Built-up roofing provides the thickest, most durable membrane available, with multiple asphalt and felt plies that can span minor deck irregularities. It’s heavier than single-ply systems, so we always verify that the original structure can handle the load, especially on garage additions that may have been built with lighter framing.

TPO Roofing
TPO’s white reflective surface cuts cooling costs for Kingston Estates homes with flat or low-slope sections that catch afternoon sun. We heat-weld all seams for a monolithic membrane, and we specify thicknesses from 45 to 80 mil depending on foot traffic and mechanical equipment needs. TPO pairs well with solar-ready decking if you’re planning panels down the road.

Solar Ready Roofing
More Kingston Estates homeowners are asking about solar compatibility during re-roofing, and we plan for it. Our solar-ready installations use reinforced underlayment and decking patterns that accommodate rack penetrations without compromising the membrane. We coordinate with your solar installer on attachment points and conduit routing, so you’re not paying for a second roof trip when the panels go up.

Common Specialty Roofing Problems We See in Kingston Estates Homes
- Delaminated original plywood decking under aging asphalt shingles - common on 1960s-70s colonials - forces full deck replacement instead of overlay. We find this on nearly every tear-off in Kingston Estates. The original 1×6 skip sheathing or early plywood has simply reached the end of its useful life, and new shingles laid over it will telegraph every defect within two years.
- Ice damming at eaves from low ventilation attics in the nor’easter corridor, causing shingle edge lift and interior leaks on all roof slopes. Kingston Estates’s tight, unvented or poorly vented attics trap heat and moisture, and the freeze-thaw cycle from January through March pushes water uphill under your shingles. We address this with proper intake and exhaust ventilation as part of any re-roofing project.
- Low-slope sections on split-levels originally shingled with three-tabs now require fully adhered membrane per NJ code, a costly surprise uncovered during tear-off. This is the hidden correction our crew encounters on nearly every Kingston Estates split-level: what looked like a simple shingle replacement becomes a code-compliant membrane installation. We price this possibility into our estimates so you’re not ambushed mid-project.
- Localized hail and wind damage from summer convective storms that insurance adjusters often miss on aging asphalt shingles. We document everything with photos from your actual roof, not from the driveway, to support your claim.

FAQs - Specialty Roofing in Kingston Estates
Yes, Cherry Hill Township requires a roofing permit for any tear-off or replacement, and because your low-slope section must be brought up to current NJ code with a fully adhered membrane system, the inspection process is mandatory. We pull permits for every Kingston Estates job as part of our standard workflow, and we schedule inspections so you don’t have to wait around. Call (855) 554-5116 and we’ll confirm your specific permit requirements.
No, we do not recommend overlaying new shingles on original 1×6 skip sheathing in Kingston Estates homes. The sheathing is typically soft, delaminated, or spaced too widely to support modern shingles properly. We remove the old decking and install OSB or plywood to current standards, which adds $1,800-$3,200 to a typical job but ensures your new roof performs as designed. Our written estimate will specify exactly what we find and what we recommend.
We address ice dams with a combination of proper intake ventilation (soffit vents), exhaust ventilation (ridge or box vents), and ice-and-water shield at eaves and valleys. On Kingston Estates’s 1960s-70s homes with sealed or minimal attic ventilation, this often means cutting in new venting as part of the re-roofing project. The upgrade pays for itself in prevented leak damage and extended shingle life. Call (855) 554-5116 for an inspection and specific recommendation for your home.
Yes, we install solar-ready decking and membrane systems that accommodate future panel attachment without requiring roof penetration repairs later. We coordinate with solar installers on rack layouts and conduit paths, and we document all structural and waterproofing details for your records. If you’re considering solar within the next five years, tell us during the estimate - we’ll spec the right system from the start.
Tear it off. A 1975 roof in Kingston Estates has almost certainly reached the end of its second lifecycle, and the original decking underneath is likely compromised. Overlaying would void most manufacturer warranties and leave you with a roof that fails prematurely. Our tear-off includes full decking inspection and replacement of any soft or delaminated areas, plus code-compliant membrane on any low-slope sections we uncover. The upfront cost is higher, but you’ll do it once and be done. Call (855) 554-5116 for a free estimate - we’ll show you exactly what we find.
