Location: Media, PA
Renovations: New roof and new siding
This Media, PA homeowner presented us with a pressing issue – multiple leaks on their old roof. The roof’s complexity became evident upon closer inspection. It consisted of multiple layers of asphalt shingles, with an additional layer of old cedar shake roof underneath. The situation called for immediate attention to ensure the homeowner’s safety and comfort.
During our thorough consultation process, we carefully analyzed the homeowner’s roof and proposed a comprehensive solution. Our team emphasized the importance of removing the cedar shake roofing and replacing it with a new sheathing to prevent future leaks. To enhance the home’s character and curb appeal, our sales representative, Kevin, suggested upgrading the roof to GAF Designer shingles – a perfect fit for this charming, older home.
Why did the homeowner choose Porter Family Exteriors for this challenging project? The answer lies in our track record. After researching various contractors, the homeowner was drawn to our exceptional reviews and reputation within the industry. The homeowner’s trust in our expertise and craftsmanship made us their top choice.
A Transformation from Top to Bottom
To address the homeowner’s roofing concerns comprehensively, we provided a brand new GAF CAMELOT 2 roof in Antique Slate for the main house. For the garage, we utilized GAF HDZ Slate, ensuring a cohesive aesthetic throughout the property.
During the installation process, we encountered unexpected challenges. While removing the roof, we discovered that the existing siding on the dormers was in poor condition, posing a potential risk for future leaks. Our team promptly devised a plan of action, suggesting the installation of Hardie siding to match the home’s architectural style. This proactive approach ensured not only a seamless installation but also protected the integrity of the newly installed roof. We installed James Hardie smooth lap siding in the Arctic White color, perfectly complementing the architectural style of the old stone Colonial.
Customer Satisfaction with Professionalism and Attention to Detail
Throughout the entire project, customer satisfaction was our foremost priority. Despite encountering minor issues, such as the siding nails causing small holes in the bedroom wall, our team swiftly took action. We approached each challenge with integrity, providing timely solutions without burdening the homeowner. The homeowner expressed their delight with our professionalism, attention to detail, and proactive problem-solving, further reinforcing their trust in our expertise.
