Our office was recently contacted by a homeowner in Cape Coral Florida to perform a routine roof inspection. We found normal wear and tear associated with the aged roof and reviewed the options for resolution with the homeowner. Following discussion, we were contracted to replace the existing shingle roof. Once the project commenced, our roofing team removed the existing shingles, underlayment, and addressed any areas needing repair prior to installing the customer’s new roof.
GAF HDZ Shingles in their Driftwood pattern were installed along with the appropriate underlayment and leak barriers. As a GAF certified Master Elite company, we take pride installing some of the best shingles available on the market. These premium shingles are rated up to 130 MPH and are accompanied by GAF’s stellar system plus 50 year non-prorated warranty on any GAF material installed on the roof. Pair that with our 2 year workmanship warranty, and our customer can rest easy knowing that their home is protected from Southwest Florida’s harsh weather environments for years to come!
