Dennison Exterior Solutions & Gutter Topper as roofing contractors in Hartford Michigan were hired to find a roof leak, add insulation to the attic and remove and replace the roof on this beautiful home located just south of Hartford Michigan.

While most roofing companies are just that – a roofing company. Dennison Exterior Solutions & Gutter Topper is a full-service company. There were many facets to this very large ranch home in that while there was an above average amount of existing insulation, the homeowner wanted to take advantage of our unique Heat Deflector Insulation since it uses NASA space technology to deflect 97 percent of the heat depending upon in which direction the heat source is coming from. Many homeowners, according to the Department of Energy, reduce their utility bills by up to 45% and take advantage of the huge labor savings by having us install the Heat Deflector Insulation during the roofing process. We simply remove several 4’ x 8’ OSB deck boards and enter the attic to install the insulation.

Underlayments

Dennison Exterior Solutions & Gutter Topper Winter Guard Ice & Water Shield

Dennison Exterior Solutions & Gutter Topper uses CertainTeed’s WinterGuard waterproofing shingle underlayment, which is the solution for winning the battle against water penetration in your roof’s most vulnerable places. WinterGuard is a composite material of asphalt polymers, formed into a rolled sheet. The asphalt makes it vapor-tight, and the polymers make the asphalt elastic and sticky. This protective barrier is able to stretch and seal around nails driven through it. Placing WinterGuard a minimum of 24″ past the interior wall line at the eave provides your first line of defense.

Dennison Exterior Solutions & Gutter Topper installs Winter Guard six feet up the roofline from all eave edges, where all lower roofs meet any walls and around all roof ‘ shingle penetrations such as furnace / water heater vent stacks, soil pipes, chimneys, antenna satellite fasteners, skylights and any other protrusions through the roof. This process eliminates all potential future callbacks.

Dennison Exterior Solutions & Gutter Topper Winter Guard seals the roof against infiltration of water into the home due to ice dams and wind-driven rain that also seals water-tight around each nail that is driven through it. The sand surface of Winter Guard also provides a huge safety factor for installers while walking on top of the shield.
