Full Roof Replacement — Druid Hills Historic Home — Roof Replacement in Martinsville, VA

This Martinsville homeowner called after noticing curled, granule-loss shingles and a recurring leak above the back bedroom. Our free inspection confirmed the 30-year architectural shingles were at end of life with several compromised decking areas. We scheduled a full tear-off and replacement the following week.

The Challenge

The home had original plywood decking with moisture damage in two valleys, and the attic was under-ventilated — baking the old shingles and shortening their life. The homeowner also needed the project completed before forecasted rain.

Our Solution

We completed a full tear-off in one day, replaced 6 sheets of damaged plywood, installed synthetic underlayment with ice-and-water shield in all valleys, balanced the attic ventilation with new ridge vent and soffit intake, and installed premium architectural shingles with new drip edge and flashing. The job finished ahead of the rain.

Materials Used

Architectural asphalt shingles Synthetic underlayment Ice & water shield Ridge vent Drip edge Step flashing Plywood decking
