New Kensington is an Allegheny River city with real bones: brick and frame homes on a tight downtown grid, larger houses climbing toward Parnassus, and neighborhoods built when the aluminum plants set the rhythm of the whole valley. Bella Construction & Development has roofed the Alle-Kiski area since 1995 from our shop at 10561 Center Hwy in Irwin, as an Owens Corning Platinum Preferred contractor with an A+ BBB rating and Pennsylvania license PA#50898.
Industrial-era houses, roofed right
The homes here were built to last and have earned their age: steep pitches, rough-cut framing, and often two or three shingle layers stacked over the decades. We tear off to the original deck on every replacement, repair what a century of river-valley weather has taken, and flash chimneys and valleys in metal. The hillside streets toward Parnassus take wind the downtown grid never feels, so we spec and nail for it.
River-valley weather
Sitting on the Allegheny, New Kensington holds damp that keeps north slopes wet and rusts cheap flashing early, while winter freeze-and-thaw builds ice at the eaves and summer storms track up the river with wind and hail. Our storm damage team tarps quickly and documents everything for your insurer before the out-of-town canvassers reach your porch.
What we handle for New Kensington homeowners
Roof replacement and repair on rowhouses, foursquares, and hillside homes. Siding from a James Hardie Master installer that tightens up older walls, replacement windows, seamless gutters, and honest budgeting via our roof replacement cost guide and roof financing options.
An Alle-Kiski company that stays
The valley has watched contractors take deposits and disappear. We are the opposite bet: a family company with thirty years of references across New Kensington, Lower Burrell, and Arnold, close enough to answer the phone in year six. Free inspections, written quotes, and a crew that knows these streets.
