Complete roof replacement for this home in Stratford, CT

This home’s roof was leaking causing damage to the attic so a new roof was definitely in store. 

The first step to the full roof replacement was to strip the roof down to the decking layer and then decide whether to replace some or all of the decking layer. Due to the decking layer being wood lats, it is better to keep them installed and plywood over them for more structural rigidity, but here some of the lats were starting to rot so we replaced those pieces first and then laid all new plywood over the existing wood.

Next, we installed our underlayments, which consist of 3 different layers to seal and protect the decking layer. First, we install our Sealeron Ice and Water around all the eaves, valleys, walls, and around any penetrations. Next is the deck tape, which is laid down over all the plywood and metal seams. Lastly, we install our synthetic underlayment, and this material is laid down anywhere the Ice and Water does not cover. 

Now the roof is prepped for shingles, this customer decided on our IKO Dynasty Granite Black Shingles. These shingles beautify contrast the color of the home and add immense curb appeal. By the end of the day, this customer was extremely satisfied with the final product and was happy knowing that their home will be safe and dry for many years to come.
