This roof was suffering from many different types of damage. Firstly there were numerous small leaks that could be spotted from the attic. Additionally, there were also issues pertaining to all the lichen and algae growing on the shingles. On top of this, their original shingles were significantly faded. With all of these issues, it was apparent that this roof needed to be replaced, so that is what we did. Firstly we ripped up all the old shingles and inspected the decking layer below. We already predicted that this was going to be rotted in a few spots so when we saw damages we were not surprised. We took up all the sheets of plywood and laid down brand-new sheets. After this, we moved on to installing Sealeron Ice and Water along with a synthetic underlayment. Finally, we can install the shingles and this homeowner decided on our IKO Dynasty Castle Gray. With this brand new roof, this homeowner can be certain that their home will be dry and watertight for many many years to come.
Our team took care of this customer's leaking roof. After talking with the customer and inspecting the roof and the leak we came to the conclusion that the roof needed to be replaced.
The first step to any roof replacement is demo. We started ripping up the old shingles to get a better look at what was going on below. With the shingles up we located the exact spot where the water was getting through. It was obvious that the plywood around the leak needed to be replaced, but the rest of the decking layer was still in really good shape so we were able to save the customer money by using the existing layer.
Once the new sheets were in, we moved on to installing decking tape, Sealeron Ice and Water, and a synthetic underlayment. These three layers really help with sealing off the home from the elements in the event that the shingles are damaged. They also have the added benefit of insulating the home creating a more energy-efficient environment.
Finally, we can install the shingles and this homeowner decided on our IKO Dynasty Summit Gray Shingles. As we installed the shingles we also installed flashings around all the openings in the roof like vents and chimneys, and this customer specifically asked for polished copper flashings so that is exactly what we installed.
