Roof Replacement Before & After Photos

Here was a multi-family home located in Middletown, CT. It was built circa 1900 and the roof was replaced 25 years ago. The time had come for a replacement, with two valleys being worn down and water leaking into an upstairs apartment. Victorian homes like this one often pose a challenge, with the extra steep pitch. The work done here was guaranteed with our Owens Corning Life Time 50 Year Full Coverage Warranty.

Here was a really neat house located right on a beautiful marshland in Old Saybrook, CT. We first removed the siding on the left side of the full dormer, inspected for rotted plywood and replaced it as needed. Then we constructed a small cricket to eliminate the blind valley, followed by Ice & Water shield over the entire cricket. New step flashing was installed, which is the optimal method of really keeping water out. Instead of having one linear piece where the shingles meet the siding, there is continuous material that acts to 'back up' each piece if one fails.

The roof on this Middletown, CT home was close to 20 years old and had been deteriorating badly, with leaking that had been going down the interior of the siding. We began the project by tearing off the old materials, and sending them to a facility in Stratford, CT where they are ground up into asphalt for paving roads. We also made sure to carefully take down a satellite dish that had been on the roof. As a base for the new shingles, we adhered Owens Corning ProArmor Synthetic Underlayment, which is a highly durable, tear-resistant material engineered to repel water. The siding on this home is no longer compromised by a faulty roofing system. 

This job was unique in that it was a home that was renovated into an office. The roof had 3-tab shingles that were curling and allowing water to enter. It was only necessary to replace the main roof and not the wrap around porch. Color: Estate Gray

On this barn-converted home in Middletown, CT we completely stripped and replaced the old roof to be recycled. This home had issues with water coming in through to the interior, which was causing ongoing damage. For the replacement roofing system, we installed three rows of Owens Corning Weatherlock G Ice & Water which allows for proper flow of water off the roof. This is especially effective in vulnerable areas such as roof penetrations and valleys. The new Slatestone Gray shingles come with both an Algae-Resistance and 130 MPH wind Resistant Limited Warranty. With the addition of a flashed skylight, this Middletown homeowner will enjoy the natural light of the outdoors, without the moisture that comes with it.
