A roof can show obvious signs that it needs attention, but sometimes the full story is not visible until the old roofing materials come off. For this 2,200-square-foot Haines City home, missing and damaged shingles led to a full roof replacement through the Haines City Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) program.
Once our A.O. Roofing Services team got to work, the project became more than just replacing shingles and we had the opportunity to address the roof beneath them to build a stronger system from the deck up.
Shingles Signal a Need for Replacement
The existing roof already featured architectural shingles, but missing and damaged areas showed that the roof had reached the point where replacement was needed.
BEFORE
Looking Beyond the Surface
After removing the existing shingles, we knew that areas of the roof deck required repair, along with woodwork at the rake edge of the roofline. Addressing those areas before installing the new shingles provided a sound surface to build upon rather than just covering existing concerns.
Remember, a new roof is a complete system, and the materials underneath the shingles play an important role in its overall performance.
A New Roofing System From the Deck Up
With the necessary wood repairs completed, our team installed synthetic underlayment followed by new Atlas architectural shingles in the color “Morning Harvest.”
Despite the additional work uncovered during the project, the 2,200-square-foot roof replacement was completed in one day. The finished roof also includes a 15-year manufacturer warranty.
AFTER
This replacement was completed through the Haines City CRA program, an initiative designed to support neighborhood revitalization, home rehabilitation and repair, and continued investment within the CRA District.
What Could Be Hiding Beneath Your Roof?
Missing or damaged shingles may be the first problem you notice, but they do not always tell the whole story. A professional roof evaluation can help determine the condition of your roofing system and whether repair or replacement may be needed.
