Roof Replacement Estimate on Sparta Road in Milford, VA

Our Fredericksburg roofing team recently visited a home on Sparta Road in Milford, VA, after the homeowner reached out for an estimate to upgrade from shingles to a faux slate roof. After reviewing the roof structure, material options, and long-term cost differences, the homeowner ultimately decided to move forward with a full shingle replacement instead of faux slate. This choice provides strong durability at a more budget-friendly price point while still giving the home a clean, updated look.

What We Found During the Roof Review

The home currently has an aging asphalt shingle roof that is ready to be replaced. The initial request was to explore faux slate options, but during our inspection we discussed weight considerations, installation complexity, and long-term maintenance. Faux slate is a great premium option, but the homeowner felt that a high-performance architectural shingle would meet their goals more effectively.

This area of Milford, especially neighborhoods along Sparta Road, sees heavy seasonal weather and strong storm cycles. An updated architectural shingle system is a practical upgrade that will protect the home well for decades.

Shingle System Selected

Instead of faux slate, the homeowner chose a full architectural shingle replacement. According to the material list, the roof will be installed using:

• Owens Corning TruDefinition Duration architectural shingles (26 squares)
• ProEdge hip and ridge caps
• Starter strip
• RhinoRoof synthetic underlayment
• Ice and water shield
• White aluminum drip edge
• Two black slant-back vents
• Plumbing boots with repair rings
• Step flashing and counter flashing
• Coil roofing nails and button caps

This system provides excellent wind protection, impact resistance, and long-term performance—ideal for rural properties that see a mix of sun exposure and storm activity.
