When this Western Springs homeowner contacted VIS Exterior, the roof had begun to leak, and after our thorough inspection, we determined that a full roof replacement was the most effective course of action due to the age of the roofing system and because of the damaged areas that allowed moisture to leak through. In our experience, the most common reasons for a full roof replacement is due to the age of the roof.
We used GAF Timberline HDZ architectural shingles in the Mission Brown color. Some of the advantages this homeowner will experience with these shingles are that they are highly durable and withstand extreme weather conditions. GAF manufactures them with superior bonding strength, which adds to the lifespan of the shingles.
There is also plenty to be said about the appearance of the shingles, which is enhanced by the dimensional appearance and textured look. With gables and steep angles throughout the many rooflines of this large home, the Mission Brown shingles looked great against the lighter tones of the stone and stucco exterior on the walls of the home.
