Service Provided: Shingle Roof Replacement Branch: Lynchburg, VA

Project Case Study: Trust Earned, Options Delivered

When a customer loves the commercial roofing work you did on their business enough to call you back for their personal home, it is the highest compliment a contractor can receive. This repeat customer in the Lynchburg area reached out to us to replace the failing shingles on his 1-story home. He was exploring all his options and initially asked us for an estimate to upgrade to a metal roof.

Our Lynchburg team believes in consultative service, not high-pressure sales. We provided comprehensive estimates for different materials so he could make an informed decision. Ultimately, the homeowner elected to tear off the old shingles down to a clean deck and install a high-end architectural shingle system. This provided the durability he wanted with a stunning aesthetic that perfectly suited his home's architecture.‍

Key Upgrades & Materials

We utilize premium components and meticulous installation practices to ensure long-lasting weather defense.‍The specifications for this custom roof replacement included:

  • Premium Shingles: We installed Owens Corning TruDefinition Duration Architectural Shingles. The homeowner selected the color Harbor Blue, providing a rich, vibrant upgrade to the home's curb appeal.
  • Targeted Waterproofing: For maximum moisture defense, we installed Cenguard Ice & Water Shield specifically on the low-sloped areas of the roof, paired with Cenguard Synthetic Underlayment across the rest of the decking.
  • Detailed Flashings & Boots: A roof is only as good as its weakest penetrations. We carefully stepped and counter-flashed the chimney and installed protective sleeves over the home's three copper pipes and one PVC pipe. We also replaced an old Broan vent while carefully reusing the existing skylights to save the customer money.
  • Structural Decking: We ensured the structural integrity of the roof by installing fresh OSB decking where needed before applying the new underlayment.
  • Site Protection: We make it a priority to protect your property during the messy tear-off process, utilizing tarps and sheets of OSB to shield your siding, sidewalks, and landscaping from falling debris.
