Roof Replacement Photo Album: New Replacement Roof in Lake Park, GA

MVW Roofing recently completed a full roof replacement for a homeowner in Lake Park, GA. The project began with our team carefully removing the old roofing to expose the wood structure beneath. During this process, we thoroughly inspected the wood decking and discovered sections affected by rot and damage. These areas were quickly replaced with high-quality materials, including either 1/2" CDX plywood or OSB plywood, depending on the structural needs. Any damaged deck boards and fascia wood were also replaced to ensure a solid foundation for the new roof. Once the foundation was secured, we installed a synthetic felt underlayment over the remaining wood. This extra moisture barrier is essential for prolonging the roof's lifespan. Next, aluminum drip metal was installed along all the eaves of the roof. This metal flashing is designed to prevent water from seeping underneath the shingles and damaging the underlying wood structure, a vital step in protecting the home. For added protection, we replaced any worn-out vent pipe boot flashings, ensuring tight seals around the vent pipes to avoid leaks. If the chimney required attention, we also replaced the chimney flashing to further safeguard the home from water intrusion. With the protective layers in place, we moved on to installing the new shingles. We selected durable, three-tab shingles, which were carefully layered to provide long-lasting protection while enhancing the home's curb appeal with a timeless design. To improve ventilation, we added ridge vents along the roof's ridges, if needed. These vents regulate airflow, helping prevent moisture buildup and ensuring the attic remains dry and well-ventilated, which in turn extends the roof's lifespan. Finally, we installed ridge caps at the peaks of the roof, not only giving the roof a polished finish but also providing additional protection against the elements. These caps seal the ridges, preventing water from entering the home. Once the roofing work was completed, our team thoroughly cleaned up the site and removed all debris, leaving the homeowner with a pristine, newly renovated roof built to last for years. With the roof replacement finished, the home is now better equipped to withstand the elements, boasting improved curb appeal and enhanced functionality, ready to face whatever weather comes its way.
