Why Wallingford Homeowners Call Volpe
Since 1970 wehave built our name in neighborhoods exactly like Wallingford's, where peopletalk, reputation carries weight, and a bad roofing job becomes common knowledgefast. That history is why we would rather do the work right than do it fast andhear about it later.
Our crews areheld to a single standard on every job. On an older, steeper roof, thatcontinuity is what produces clean valleys, properly integrated flashing, and afinished job that looks as good as it performs.
Our CertainTeedand GAF certifications let us offer enhanced, often transferable warranties onmaterials and workmanship, which can be a genuine asset when it comes time tosell a Wallingford home.
Our credentialsinclude full licensing in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware, completeinsurance coverage, EPA Lead-Safe certification, and an A+ rating from theBetter Business Bureau. On older homes, that lead-safe certification is not aformality, because original materials can contain lead and we handle themcorrectly.

Roofing That Respects Older Homes
Older homesbring older roofs, and frequently more than one layer of shingles hidingdecades of history underneath. On these houses we generally recommend a fulltear-off rather than another layover, because it lets us assess the decking,correct past mistakes, and start from a clean, sound surface. It is thedifference between covering a problem and actually solving it.
We installCertainTeed and GAF architectural shingles chosen to suit Wallingford'straditional rooflines, and for the right home we also handle metal andspecialty roofing. As a CertainTeed Select ShingleMaster and GAF Master Elitecontractor, we can register enhanced warranties that few local roofers canmatch, and on steeper, more complex roofs, that certified craftsmanship reallyshows.
The failurepoints on older roofs are rarely just the shingles. Worn flashing at chimneys,valleys, and dormers, brittle underlayment, and attic ventilation that wasnever done right are the usual culprits behind leaks and premature aging. Weaddress the entire system so the new roof performs as long as it should.
Every jobstarts with a free, careful assessment. We document what we find, explain it inplain language, and give you a written estimate before we quote a singledollar, so you understand exactly what your home needs and why.

We replace worn flashing as part of a properroof replacement rather than reusing it. Old, corroded flashing aroundchimneys, valleys, and dormers is one of the most common sources of leaks onolder homes, so getting it right is central to the job.
