A Sawyer homeowner needed more than new shingles. The previous roof had blocked soffit airflow, so cooler air could not enter at the eaves and move out through the ridge. That kind of ventilation failure is a common reason roofs wear out early and decking gets damaged.
Dennison Exterior Solutions & Gutter Toppers replaced the roof and corrected the airflow at the same time.
What was installed
• CertainTeed Landmark Pro lifetime-warranty shingles in Heather Blend
• Heat Deflector Insulation
• Insulation baffles at the eaves to restore intake airflow
• Ridge vent to exhaust hot, humid attic air
• Replacement of damaged roof decking caused by poor ventilation
For this home we lifted the eave decking, moved insulation that was blocking the vented soffit, and created clear channels so air can enter at the lowest point of the roof and exit at the ridge. That is how an attic stays cooler in summer and drier year-round.
Heat Deflector Insulation is a reflective perforated blanket installed to help keep radiant heat out of the living space in summer and hold conditioned air where it belongs in winter. Used with a balanced vent system, it also helps reduce snowmelt and ice buildup on the roof.
Homeowners searching for a roofing contractor in Sawyer, New Buffalo, or Harbor Country should look past the shingle color. The underlayment, ventilation, insulation, and workmanship decide how long the roof lasts. We install CertainTeed systems with a 50-year, 100% transferable labor and material warranty with no proration during the life of the shingles.
