When a residential roof begins to fail, water intrusion can cause severe, hidden damage to the underlying wood structure that a simple shingle overlay cannot fix. For this local home, we executed a comprehensive Roof Shingle Removal and Installation in Citrus Heights to address massive deck deterioration and secure the property. The roof featured varying pitches from 2/12 to 7/12, requiring a complete install with tear-off to properly assess the old plank decking and build a fortified, weather-tight system from the rafters up.

Our crew initiated the project with strict first layer disposal and continuous material disposal to keep the property clean and safe. Upon removing the old shingles, we exposed the original plank wood decking and discovered massive holes and severe decay along the eaves and roof edges. The damage was so extensive that the wood had completely split and rotted through near the gutter lines.

We immediately executed critical fascia dry rot repair, cutting out the compromised lumber and performing necessary structural repairs to the roof's perimeter. To create a solid, flawless foundation, we completed extensive re-sheeting using brand-new structural plywood, specifically fortifying the areas around the HVAC unit and the brick chimney. A custom chimney cricket was also installed to properly divert water runoff. With the deck fully restored and our technicians secured to heavy-duty roof anchors, we rolled out GAF TigerPaw synthetic roof underlayment and Peel & Stick membrane to provide an impenetrable secondary moisture barrier.

"We take pride in offering Citrus Heights home owners honest, reliable roofing solutions. Not every roof issue can be solved with a quick fix—sometimes, a complete structural tear-off and thorough dry rot repair is the smartest, safest, and most cost-effective move for the long-term health of your home."

The culmination of this meticulous Roof Shingle Removal and Installation in Citrus Heights resulted in a perfectly restored, highly durable home exterior. We installed premium GAF Timberline HDZ RS architectural shingles in a rich Charcoal blend across all roof planes, capping the peaks with distinct ridge shingles for a polished finish. All pipe penetrations were properly flashed and painted to match the new dark grey roof surface. Aerial views of the completed project highlight the striking transformation of the property, providing absolute protection for the home and the vehicles securely parked below.
