About Shelby Roofing Services
Performing at a Higher Level

A roofing company built on craftsmanship, guided by precision, and measured by the quality of every project we deliver.

Who We Are

More Than a Roofing Contractor

Shelby Roofing Services was built around a belief that the best outcome for any client begins with the right conversation — one that starts with questions, not proposals. We take the time to understand your goals, your timeline, and what you value most before a single recommendation is made.

Based in Blue Bell, Pennsylvania, we serve homeowners and commercial clients throughout the Greater Philadelphia Area. Our team specializes in the full spectrum of premium roofing systems — from architectural shingles and standing seam metal to natural slate, cedar shake, Spanish tile, and flat membrane systems.

We are a GAF Certified Contractor, fully licensed and insured. Every qualifying project is properly permitted. Every installation is documented with drone photography and video from start to finish. These are not extras — they are part of the standard we hold ourselves to on every job.

What Drives Every Project

Craftsmanship

Precision at Every Stage

We install complete roofing systems — not surfaces. Every component, from ice and water shield to custom copper flashing, is installed with the same level of care. Nothing is rushed. Nothing is reused from the old system.

Documentation

Proof You Can Keep

We document every project with drone photography and video — before, during, and after. You receive a complete album as a permanent record of the work completed on your home. It follows the property when you sell.

Guidance

Be Guided, Not Sold

Every consultation begins by understanding your goals, timeline, and priorities. We guide each client toward the system that fits their property — not the option that benefits us most. The right recommendation is the one that serves you long-term.

Access

Available at Every Hour

Our phones are on 24 hours a day. When you engage Shelby Roofing Services, you have direct access to our team — call, text, or email at any hour. Direct communication is part of our standard, not an exception.

Our Approach

Be Guided, Not Sold

The roofing industry has a reputation for selling first and advising second. We built Shelby Roofing Services around the opposite model. Every client interaction begins with listening — understanding how long they plan to stay, what their priorities are, and what experience they want from the process.

When the most efficient option fits a homeowner's goals, that is what we recommend. When a property calls for a premium system — copper-flashed natural slate, custom standing seam metal, or hand-split cedar shake — we explain exactly why and let you decide. Our goal is a recommendation you understand and believe in before the first payment is made.

The Name Behind the Standard

Inspired by Carroll Shelby

Carroll Shelby was a Texas chicken farmer who became one of the most celebrated automotive engineers in history. He won Le Mans. He built the Shelby Cobra. He took Ford's GT40 to four consecutive victories at Le Mans. He did all of it by refusing to accept "good enough" when better was possible.

The name Shelby Roofing Services is a direct tribute to that standard — the belief that performance is not a premium option. It is the only option. Every project we take on is measured by whether we gave it everything we had, built it to outlast expectations, and left something behind that the homeowner is proud of for decades.

Carroll Shelby's motto was simple: "If you can dream it, you can do it — if you're willing to work harder than anyone else to make it real." That's what we bring to your roof.

About Shelby Roofing Services

Frequently Asked Questions

Are you licensed and insured in Pennsylvania and New Jersey? +
Yes. We hold PA Home Improvement Contractor License #PA-178363 and carry $2 million in general liability insurance. We are also fully licensed to operate in New Jersey and Delaware. Certificates of insurance are available upon request before any project begins.
What makes Shelby Roofing Services different from other local contractors? +
Three things: we are GAF Certified (a designation earned by fewer than 7% of contractors), we provide a 30-year workmanship warranty backed by our own company — not a third party — and every project is led by someone who actually understands roofing rather than a salesperson handing off to a subcontract crew. We don't use subcontractors on our primary installations.
Do you handle insurance claims? +
Yes — we assist homeowners throughout the claim process: storm damage documentation, working with your adjuster, reviewing the scope of loss, and submitting supplements for items missed in the initial assessment. We serve as your advocate with the insurance company, not just an installer. We do not, however, charge upfront for claim assistance.
Do you offer financing? +
Yes — through Acorn Finance, qualified homeowners can access up to $100,000 with terms up to 20 years. The prequalification process takes 60 seconds and does not affect your credit score. We also offer interest-free options for shorter terms. Financing is available to all customers regardless of whether an insurance claim is involved.
What areas do you serve? +
We serve the greater Philadelphia area including all of Montgomery County, Chester County, Delaware County, and Bucks County in Pennsylvania; Burlington, Camden, Gloucester, and Mercer Counties in New Jersey; and New Castle County in Delaware. We have completed projects in over 63 communities. See our Service Areas page for the full list.
