Project Story

How We Got It Done

The Problem

What We Found

Before the project, the home had an aging asphalt roof with curled edges, faded shingles, and loose flashing around the chimney. Inside, the homeowner had started noticing faint ceiling discoloration near the rear dormer and wanted to replace the roof before the next stretch of wet weather.

The Challenge

What Made It Tricky

The home’s steep front pitch and multiple roof transitions made the tear-off and flashing work more detailed than a standard replacement. We also had to work carefully around mature landscaping and a small patio area behind the house.

Our Solution

How We Solved It

Our team completed a full tear-off, replaced damaged decking boards where needed, and installed ice-and-water shield at the eaves, valleys, and around roof penetrations. We followed with synthetic underlayment, new flashing at the chimney and dormer, and GAF architectural shingles in Charcoal with matching ridge caps for a consistent finish.

The Result

The Final Outcome

The finished roof has a sharper, more uniform appearance and a much stronger weather barrier than the old system. With new decking repairs, proper flashing, and updated shingles in place, the home is now set up for better protection through storms and winter freeze-thaw cycles.

Client Outcome

What the Client Said

The homeowner now has peace of mind during heavy rain and snow. They also like that the house looks cleaner from the street after the replacement.

“The crew was organized, neat, and finished right on schedule. The new roof looks sharp, and we feel good knowing everything underneath was done the right way.”
