Full Roof Replacement — GAF Timberline HZ Barkwood

The team tackled an ambitious re-roof project on Dogwood Lane Road, where a sprawling single-story red brick ranch needed a complete transformation. With a massive footprint spanning roughly 50 squares, this was no small undertaking. The crew of five workers spent a solid week carefully managing the substantial scope, navigating the mature oak trees in the front yard while protecting the homeowner's carefully maintained landscaping. Every precaution was taken to ensure the property remained respected throughout the process.

The original roofing system—a three-tab shingle installed approximately 25 years prior—had deteriorated significantly, with shingles crumbling and separating from the deck. Fortunately, the underlying structure proved solid, requiring only three panels of resheathing near the chimney area. The team selected GAF Timberline HZ shingles in Barkwood, a choice that complemented the red brick beautifully while providing long-lasting performance. Beyond the main installation, the crew addressed several roofing details that enhance both function and longevity. Old leaf flashing around the chimney was completely replaced with new step and counter flashing in galvanized metal, while two outdated turbine vents were removed and replaced with a continuous ridge vent system for improved attic ventilation.

The homeowner chose to invest in this project outright, paying cash and recognizing that the time for a complete renewal had simply arrived. The result speaks for itself—a refreshed roof that protects the home while enhancing its curb appeal for years to come.
