Roof Replacement in West Chester Township, Ohio

Project Description:

At Cincinnati Affordable Contracting, we recently completed a significant roof replacement project, underscoring our commitment to enhancing and protecting our customers’ homes in West Chester Township. The homeowner, having just purchased the property, recognized the necessity of replacing the worn-out roof to ensure the longevity and safety of their investment. With this in mind, we set out to deliver a comprehensive solution tailored to their needs.

The project began with the complete removal of the old shingles and underlayment. This step was vital to preparing the roof for a fresh start, allowing us to install a new, more resilient roofing system from the ground up. Our approach was meticulous, focusing on quality materials and superior craftsmanship throughout the process.

We installed an advanced water and ice barrier to provide unmatched protection against water intrusion, which is critical for maintaining a dry and damage-free home. The synthetic underlayment was also laid down, offering enhanced durability and resistance against moisture, far surpassing traditional materials in performance.

To ensure effective water management, we added drip edges and gutter aprons. These components are essential for channeling water away from the roof and into the gutters, protecting the roof edges and the structure underneath from water damage. Counter and step flashing were also installed to secure waterproofing where the roof meets vertical structures, such as walls and chimneys, further safeguarding the home against leaks.

Understanding the importance of a well-ventilated roof, we incorporated ridge vents to facilitate continuous airflow along the roof’s peak. This feature prolongs the roof’s lifespan by minimizing heat and moisture accumulation and contributes to a more energy-efficient and comfortable living environment.

The crowning feature of the project was the installation of Owens Corning Duration Shingles. Chosen for their robustness, visual appeal, and performance, these shingles are available in various colors to match the homeowner’s tastes. Equipped with a limited lifetime warranty and a 130 mph wind rating, they promise enduring protection and aesthetic value.

Spanning 2,000 sq. ft., or 20 roofing squares, this project reflects our dedication to delivering excellence. Upon purchasing the property, the homeowner’s decision to replace the aged roof was a wise investment in preserving and enhancing the home’s value and safety. At Cincinnati Affordable Contracting, we are proud to bring our expertise, quality materials, and detailed craftsmanship to ensure our customers’ satisfaction and peace of mind.
