Photo Album: Full Asphalt Roof Replacement in Mount Vernon, NY

This roof replacement project in Mount Vernon, NY was a crucial upgrade for the homeowner. Double R A Construction conducted a thorough roof inspection to assess the condition of the aging shingle roof, which had multiple damaged sections causing interior water damage to the roofing layers. Our roofing expert presented visual evidence of the damage and discussed the pros and cons of a roof repair versus a complete roof replacement. While a repair may seem like a quick fix, it wouldn't address the underlying issues, and water damage would continue to escalate, potentially leading to wood rot, mold growth, and other structural concerns. Ultimately, the homeowner chose a Complete Asphalt Roof Replacement with CertainTeed in Georgetown Grey. These asphalt shingles provide not only a stylish aesthetic but also superior protection against heavy rain and wind gusts up to 130 mph. With a 30-year warranty, these shingles are known for their durability and are among the most popular choices for roof replacements in their category.

Major shingle damages

We found several sections of the roof to have damaged and missing shingles. Our sales person will now sit down with the homeowner and review all possible options. A repair doesn't seem likely here.

Previous repair work

A repair was attempted at one time. As you can see, this is only a temporary solution and is a braid-aid to an already growing issue.

Replacing old decking with new, undamaged wood

Once we removed the shingles, we were left with no choice but to replace the old, water damaged decking with new, fresh decking.

Adding Underlayment Layer

This layer is one of the several layering processes we perform at Double R A Construction. This process ensures your home's roof if protected to the fullest.

Ice & Water shield installation

This step is one of the most important to any roof replacement. Some roofing contractors only use one layer of underlayment when replacing your roof. Here at Double R A Construction, we use a specific process that will provide your home protection that it deserves.

Installing the shingles

After we installed the underlayment & Ice/water barrier, we now are completing the one of the final steps. Our professional installers are properly installing the new CertainTeed Asphalt Shingles.
