A Fresh Start

A homeowner reached out to In Lakewood, NJ after noticing signs of wear on this steep-pitched roof. After inspection, we explained that due to the roof’s age and multiple past repairs, a full roof replacement made the most sense. As a residential roofing contractor, we knew that temporary fixes wouldn’t extend the life of the roof or prevent future leaks. The risk of interior damage would only grow over time. We removed all existing materials down to the wood sheathing to prepare for the new system. Owens Corning TruDefinition Duration® Shingles in Desert Rose were selected, offering both algae resistance and long-term protection. White edge metal was installed to complete the clean look. We also added Owens Corning VentSure Rigid Roll for proper ventilation across the roofline. With a steep 9/12 pitch, every detail had to be handled with care. Working with an experienced contractor for roofing projects makes the process easier and ensures the job is done right from day one.
