Challenge

Roofing System Ready for an Upgrade

The original asphalt shingles had provided dependable protection over the years. With some minor curling, fading, and granule loss starting to appear, it was the ideal moment to upgrade to a more resilient and visually appealing solution.

Curb Appeal Enhancement

The homeowner was eager to elevate the exterior appearance of the home with a roofing material that offered both premium aesthetics and lasting performance, without sacrificing efficiency.

Weather-Resistant Solution Needed

In Glencoe's variable climate, with cold winters, rain, and intense sunlight, the new roof needed to offer year-round reliability and minimal maintenance, ensuring long-term protection and peace of mind.

Solution

Complete Shingle Roof Removal

Our team performed a safe and thorough tear-off of the existing asphalt shingles, preparing the roof deck for new underlayment and premium composite installation.

Installation of Brava Synthetic Cedar Shake Tiles

Brava’s high-performance synthetic shake tiles were installed across the entire roofing system. These Class 4 impact-rated, Class A fire-rated, and fade-resistant tiles provide the rustic look of natural cedar without the downsides. Multiple widths and authentic textures helped achieve a natural, handcrafted appearance.

Enhanced Underlayment & Ice Protection

We installed a high-quality synthetic underlayment and ice & water shield along eaves and valleys for added moisture defense and longevity.

Flashing & Ventilation Updates

All flashing and vents were upgraded to match the new system, ensuring a watertight seal and balanced attic airflow.
