Our professional team at Double R A Construction has started the process of removing an old asphalt shingle roof in this quite area of Mount Vernon, NY. Our installers are setting up the roof form removal. They are protecting the surrounding property so that any falling debris will not damage the home's surroundings. Once out their, we did a thorough inspection of the roof. We inspected the attic to look for any interior wood damage. Fortunately, we found no evidence of moisture or beginning phases of mold. We for took our time with the homeowner to present and discuss the different types of roofing options. After serious consideration, they decided on installing a DaVinci Synthetic Slate roof. Not only are these shingles easy to install, they are light weight and extremely durable. They stand up against harsh weather, have low maintenance requirements, a long lifespan, and a aesthetic appeal, that resembles natural slate.
