Storm Guard - Metro Detroit North

What was known on this roof before the customer had us inspect it? There was wind damage. That was clear because some of the shingles had blown off the front slope.

What was unknown? The amount of hail damage and the fact that the roof had a discontinued shingle which made spot replacement impossible.

Despite our proof that what they were proposing was not feasible, the insurer would not budge from a repair that was (conveniently) just below the deductible. But our homeowner was knowledgeable and trusted us through the process. She exercised her right to appraisal (yes, we're certified as appraisers through the Insurance Appraiser and Umpire Association) and, through that process, was granted coverage for a full roof replacement.

It's always satisfying to see the transformation...but even more rewarding when we win the difficult cases!

When we inspected this home, we discovered that the existing 3-tab shingle was a discontinued organic shingle. There was also enough storm damage to warrant filing the claim with the insurer. After a couple of conversations, the insurer was onboard in providing for full roof replacement and the customer opted for one of our favorites - the Owens Corning Duration in Black Sable.

Per usual, we capped off the new roof system with our Mid-America Products CapMaster for a polished look at that will protect the pipe jacks for decades to come.

This home had a small leak showing in the ceiling of the upstairs bedroom, right next to the chimney flashing. When we inspected the chimney we saw some cracks in the caulk and that it was installed in a way that could lead to more issues.

We cut used the grinder to make a small incision in the brick and mortar, custom bent the Quality Aluminum Products coil, placed the new flashing in the groove and caulked it for a tight seal that will keep the water out for years to come.

While we were doing this work, we noticed a recent wind storm had knocked off a few cap shingles so we took care of that with a some new cap shingles from Owens Corning.

This home had a leak on the top section of the roof and an attic that was not accessible. After trying to do minimally-invasive repairs on two areas the problem persisted so it was time to replace the top section.

Upon opening the roof we discovered the issue was that the previous installer - likely the previous homeowner himself - had installed both the shingles and underlayment incorrectly, allowing water to make its way into the home.

The new Owens Corning Duration shingles look great and will give this homeowner years of worry-free protection! Not to mention that the homeowner is covered by our nationally-backed warranty!
