We were recently contacted by a homeowner in Southwest Florida residing in Cape Coral with a request to inspect and ultimately replace their homes roof. Once awarded the contract, our team got to work removing the home’s existing roofing structure to then install GAF’s new Timberline® HDZ™ Shingles. These shingles are rated to 130 mph and perfectly suited for our severe Southwest Florida weather. This home also possessed a section of roof that was flat, and our team replaced and tied that section as well to the home’s new shingle roof system.
Following the roof replacement, we also installed new 6″ brown aluminum seamless guters around the entire perimeter eave of the home (while stopping at the screen enclosure). We’re thankful for the opportunity to serve our wonderful client, and are proud to showcase this project. Their new roof will serve the home well for years to come!
