Roof replacement with new decking and ridge vent

The project

This roof, in the Chantilly area, had worn shingles that were lifting at the edges, and the metal drip edge along the roof line was dirty and loose. Our team checked the roof and the attic and found stained wood under the roof deck, which is a sign that water had been getting in.

The crew started by tearing off the old shingles, then replaced the damaged sections of plywood decking, so the new roof would have solid wood to nail into. They covered the whole roof with new underlayment, including around the chimney and the valleys, and installed new shingles over it. A ridge vent went along the peak to let the attic breathe.

By the end of the job the roof was finished with new Owens Corning Duration shingles in Williamsburg Gray from the eaves to the ridge. The photos below follow the work from the old shingles through tear-off, decking repair and underlayment. If you see stains on your ceiling or lifting shingles, we can come out and check.
