About this project
Wind damaged this Dayton roof. We found creased shingles, flipped up where the wind had caught them.
What we found
The insurance company didn't approve a full roof at first. We documented the damage for several months.
We sent a shingle for an ITEL test, which looks for a matching shingle still on the market. We laid the closest matches on the roof and they didn't blend in. The original shingles have a gray accent across the top, and the new ones are black.
The insurance company then approved a full replacement of the house roof and the shed roof.
Why it mattered
After tear-off, we found deck boards where water had been getting in, and we replaced them.
This house has a 25-inch overhang. Ohio's residential code requires ice and water shield to reach at least 24 inches inside the exterior wall, so one row at the eaves would not have been enough here.
What we did
We protected the property with tarps before the tear-off.
We tore the old roof off down to the deck and cleaned the deck.
We built both roofs to the Helping Hands Roofing Standard: two rows of ice and water shield at the eaves, ice and water shield up the sidewalls before the step flashing, and a double layer of synthetic underlayment with a 24-inch overlap.
We installed Owens Corning Duration shingles in Brownwood and finished the chimney flashing.
Materials and system used: Owens Corning Duration shingles (Brownwood), ice and water shield (two rows at the eaves, up the sidewalls), double layer of synthetic underlayment with a 24-inch overlap
