In 1920 Clement Aloysius O'Donnell started doing small repairs and installing roofing with a company located in West Philadelphia. He worked on homes primarily in the city, but also worked on the construction of some of the main line homes which are still around today. He quickly caught on to how to do the job right and keep clients satisfied.
In 1924, he took all of his knowledge and skills, and started C.A O'Donnell Roofing. His entrepreneurial spirit served him well as jobs started piling up immediately. Back then, the technology in roofing was nil, and all metalwork had to be done in house. Clement had his own state of the art metal fabrication shop at 56th and Lansdowne Ave. in the West Phila.

Asphalt Roofing
Report
Asphalt roofing shingles are the most commonly used covering on residential properties in the market. Asphalt's primary purpose in roofing shingles is to serve as a waterproofing agent. Asphalt also holds the granules in place and adds to the overall strength of the roofing shingle. The best asphalt will stay flexible and will not dry out or become hard or brittle for the expected life of the roofing shingle.
Cedar Roofing
Report
Cedar is perhaps the oldest roofing material in use today, but its still very much a viable option for roof replacement. The interwoven felt used in cedar shake installation creates a durable roof system that is designed to "recycle" moisture beneath the material back out onto the roof surface. A cedar shake roof tends to have a more rustic look, and it can mesh well with a wide variety of architectural styles.
