Service Provided: Shingle Roof Replacement (House + Detached Garage) with Chimney Removal & EPDM Ridge Repair | Branch: Martinsburg, WV (serving homeowners across West Virginia)
A Princeton, WV homeowner contacted Cenvar after watching shingles peel off the roof of a 2-story home in high winds — a problem that's already past the "patch and monitor" point once you're actively losing pieces. The home also had two old chimneys that hadn't been used in years, a rusted cap at the peak of the main house, and a detached garage that needed its roof redone alongside the main house. The lead center booked the call on April 16, 2026, and an estimator scoped the full project. While this specific project took place in Princeton, WV, the scope — wind damage plus multi-structure replacement plus chimney removal — is representative of the kind of work our Martinsburg, WV team handles across the state for West Virginia homeowners.
Modern architectural shingles rely on a heat-activated seal strip to bond each shingle to the one below. Over time, UV exposure, thermal cycling, and simple age cause that seal to weaken and release. Once wind gets under a few shingles on an aging roof, the uplift tends to spread — the newly exposed tabs flex more in every gust, their seals deteriorate faster, and the failure pattern compounds. Our write-up on wind damage walks through what to look for and when spot repairs stop making sense.
Unused chimneys are a parallel issue. Old chimneys are among the most common leak sources on a roof — masonry deteriorates, flashing ages faster than the surrounding shingles, and every re-roof is another chance for an imperfect seal. If a chimney is no longer in use, removing it down to below the roof deck and sealing the opening eliminates an entire category of future leaks.
The house and detached garage scoped out at 22.66 squares across 13 facets — a steep 10/12 pitch, 71 linear feet of ridges, 114 linear feet of hips, 30 linear feet of valleys, and 293 linear feet of eaves. Scope included:
Priced at three package tiers: Silver $13,260, Gold $14,830, Platinum $16,400 — plus $700 for chimney removal. Total for the selected Gold package: $15,530.

Every package comes with no money down, Cenvar's 100% satisfaction guarantee, and a Cenguard workmanship warranty scaled to the package selected. (Note: The Cenguard warranty applies to the shingle portion of the roof; the EPDM ridge repair carries a separate 10-year workmanship warranty plus the manufacturer's material warranty.)
