At Shepherd Roofing & Renovations this summer, we completed an extensive roof replacement and exterior renovation project that enhanced the home’s curb appeal and reinforced its structural integrity and efficiency. Here’s a detailed look at the work we performed for our valued customer:
Our dedicated team began by removing the entire existing roof system down to the sheathing and meticulously inspecting the plywood for any signs of damage. We replaced any compromised areas to ensure a solid foundation for the new roofing materials. We installed a high-quality synthetic underlayment across the field of the roof, accompanied by Ice & Water Shields in all valleys to provide superior protection against leaks and water damage. New drip edges were fitted over all eaves and rakes, and all flashing was inspected and replaced as necessary to safeguard the home against the elements.
Additionally, we upgraded the ventilation system to a new ridge vent system, replaced outdated pipe jacks and gas caps, and sealed all exposed nails to prevent moisture penetration. We painted all roof items to match the newly installed shingles to complete the aesthetic. A special task involved carefully lifting the pergola from the roof to replace shingles underneath, ensuring every inch of the roof was meticulously addressed.
The chimney was not overlooked; our team sealed and painted it to improve its appearance and enhance its resistance to weather and aging, ensuring it continues to function effectively for years to come.
Understanding the importance of efficient water management, we removed and replaced all old gutters and downspouts with new 5″ seamless gutters and 2″x3″ downspouts. This update ensures better rainwater diversion away from the foundation, reducing the risk of water damage.
To boost the home’s energy efficiency and visual appeal, we replaced four window screens and five vinyl window units. This upgrade enhances the home’s insulation properties and its overall aesthetic, letting in natural light while keeping the elements out.
The fencing around the property was not left behind. We replaced damaged 2×6 top caps on all fencing, followed by a thorough cleaning and staining of all fencing. This restored the fence’s appearance and fortified it against future wear and tear.
Next was the pergola, an essential feature of the home’s outdoor living space, received a complete pressure clean and stain, revitalizing its look and extending its durability to withstand the changing seasons.
Our project proposal included replacing the metal roofing on dormers and the HVAC fan guard, contingent upon insurance approval of the supplement. This step was crucial for maintaining the home’s aesthetic uniformity and functional integrity.
This comprehensive project by Shepherd Roofing & Renovations not only revitalized the exterior of the home but also enhanced its structural integrity and efficiency. Every step, from roofing to windows and fencing, was executed with precision, using high-quality materials and expert craftsmanship.
