🤕 Symptoms: -Visibly aged roof with patches of missing shingles -Leaks forming at multiple points, including around chimney and power pole -Soft decking indicating compromised plywood beneath the shingles -Outdated roof boot and deteriorated flashing -Aesthetic wear impacting curb appeal and potential home value 🧠 Diagnosis: This wasn’t just surface-level wear — it was a full-blown case of roof fatigue. Years of weather exposure had worn the defenses down, and water was beginning to creep in where it shouldn’t. The roof was beyond basic repair, and needed to be rebuilt from the sheathing up, with proper flashing and protection in all high-risk areas. One misstep (literally) even revealed how fragile things had become when a foot went through the ceiling — proof the integrity had been compromised. 🛠️ Treatment Plan: -Complete tear-off of old roofing down to framing -Reinforced and or replace any damaged rafters -Installed all new CDX plywood sheathing -Laid 30 lb felt underlayment with ice & water shield at all eaves, valleys, chimney base, and around roof penetrations -Installed Owens Corning Duration architectural shingles — chosen for strength and longevity -Installed new ridge vent system and cap shingles for proper attic ventilation -Reflashed the chimney with brand new flashing and counter flashing -Custom-installed a specialized roof boot around the electric pole to prevent leaks at the ridge -Repaired interior ceiling damage from accidental breakthrough and cleaned the site fully — no charge to the homeowner 💡 Prognosis🩺: This home is now shielded from the elements with a professional-grade roofing system that’s as sharp-looking as it is tough. No more drips, soft spots, or band-aid fixes. With proper upkeep, this roof won’t need attention again for decades. The client was understanding, even when Murphy's Law made a brief appearance — and left the project smiling.
