Estero FL Home Receives A New Roof, Gutters, and An Exterior Repaint

At First Service, we take pride in exceeding the expectations of our customers. We recently had the opportunity to completely transform the exterior of a customers home in Estero Florida. Our team started by replacing the existing roofing structure on this home. After the existing roof was removed and properly prepared for the new roofing materials, we installed Boral’s Espresso Blend roofing tile. When our roof construction was complete, our team also formed and installed new 6″ aluminum seamless gutters to the first story of the home. This ensured that water would be properly diverted from the home.

Once concluded, our painting division paid this residence a visit. Using Sherwin Williams paint products, we repainted the exterior of this home per our customer’s color choices. The end result was stunning and we’re blessed that our company was chosen to help transform this home from top to bottom!

Estero Florida Tile Roof Replacement

Our roofing division recently worked with this homeowner to replace their residence’s existing tile roof. Once approved of and contracted, we went to work removing the existing tile and roof underlayment. Once removed and inspected, our team replaced any damaged/deteriorated decking and re-nailed to meet the proper hurricane mitigation code. New tile underlayment followed along with the appropriate edge flashing, valley metals, eave closure metal, and vents. The customer selected a beautiful tile from Boral’s Barcelona 900 series, in their Chestnut Brown colorway. Once we installed their new roofing tile, the difference was night and day. The new tile accented the home beautifully, however, the homeowner also elected our team to repaint the entire exterior of the residence which will further beautify their home.

Once the roof install was complete, we went to work installing new white 6″ aluminum seamless gutters on the first story at the front of the home to properly route water off of their new roof. Stay tuned for future updates of this home once our painting team concludes their exterior repaint!
