Roofing on Troy Hill, Pittsburgh
Straight A Exterior Renovations provides roof repair, roof replacement, rubber roofing, gutters and siding for homeowners on Troy Hill in Pittsburgh. Troy Hill sits on a hilltop above the Allegheny River, with compact older brick and frame houses built close together. Small lots and close neighbors shape how we plan every job here.
Many of these homes have a pitched front roof and a low-slope rear roof, plus small porch or entry roofs. We inspect all of it for free, photograph what we find and give you a line-by-line written quote that covers each section clearly.
Local know-how
Hilltop Weather and Compact Homes on Troy Hill
A hilltop above a river valley sees wind that sheltered streets do not. Combine that with older roofs and close-set houses, and small problems can spread from one roof section to the next.
Exposure above the Allegheny
Wind coming up from the river valley hits the hilltop directly, so we pay close attention to roof edges, ridges and loose shingles.
Low-slope rear roofs
Compact older houses often have low-slope rear sections where water drains slowly. Worn seams there are a common leak source.
Brick and frame side by side
Brick homes need sound wall and chimney flashing, while frame homes need sound siding and trim. Many streets have both, and we check for both.
Small lots, close quarters
With limited yard and street space, we keep materials organized and protect neighboring homes from debris.

Why choose us
Careful Roofing for Troy Hill's Close-Set Homes
On Troy Hill we plan around tight lots and close neighbors and treat every roof section, front and rear, with the same care.
One manager, every section
Your project manager keeps track of the front roof, the low-slope rear roof and the small porch roofs, and coordinates staging on a small lot.
Emergency roofing above the river
Wind off the Allegheny hits the hilltop directly. If a storm opens up your roof, we stop the active leak first and then make the permanent repair.
Workmanship guarantee
Worn seams on a rear roof are a common leak source. Our 2-year workmanship guarantee covers the rubber roofing and shingles we install.
Rated 5.0 by homeowners
Straight A is rated 5.0 across 97 Google reviews and holds itself to that standard on every Pittsburgh job.
Our process
Six Steps to a New Roof on Troy Hill
On Troy Hill's close-set streets we stage materials tightly, protect neighboring roofs and windows and clean up every nail before we walk the property with you.
- Step 1
Free inspection of each section
We inspect the pitched front roof, the low-slope rear roof, entry roofs, and the flashing on brick walls or the siding on frame walls.
- Step 2
Written quote by section
Each section is priced clearly, so you can replace only the rear roof if the front still has life left.
- Step 3
Insurance support after wind damage
Only when a storm caused the damage: we photograph it, help you report it and work with the adjuster on your behalf.
- Step 4
Installation
We cover nearby roofs, windows and walkways, control debris during tear-off and use rubber roofing where water drains slowly.
- Step 5
Cleanup and walk-through
With limited yard space, we clear debris as we go and finish with a full sweep for nails before walking the property with you.
- Step 6
Warranty in effect
After the final walk-through on your Troy Hill home, both coverages apply: the lifetime product warranty on the materials and our 2-year workmanship guarantee.
FAQ
Questions from Troy Hill homeowners
My Troy Hill house has a flat roof in the back. Can you fix it?
Yes. We repair and replace low-slope and flat roofs, usually with rubber roofing, which is made for sections where water drains slowly.
Can you replace just the rear roof?
Yes. If the front roof is in good shape, we can replace only the rear section. We will tell you honestly if both sections are near the end of their life.
How do you avoid damaging my neighbor's house?
We cover nearby roofs, windows and walkways where needed, control debris during tear-off and clean up thoroughly at the end of each job.
Does a hilltop location mean more wind damage?
Homes on exposed hilltops generally see more wind than those in sheltered spots, so edges and ridges can wear faster. A post-storm inspection helps catch problems early.
Do you work on small commercial buildings too?
Yes. We offer commercial flat roofing, including TPO, EPDM rubber and roof coatings, along with commercial roof inspections.
Are you an Owens Corning contractor?
Yes. Straight A Exterior Renovations is an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor and is rated A+ by the BBB.
