[30] ALUMIMUM SHINGLES REPLACED, IN ABBOTSFORD B.C. |
|
THE OWNER WAS IN HIS '70S, AND HE COULDN'T AFFORD ANOTHER METAL ROOF. HE CHOSE TO GO WITH AN ASPHALT SHINGLE, AS IT WAS ALL THAT HE COULD AFFORD.
|
|
|
FROM THE STREET THE ROOF LOOKED OK, BUT NOTICEABLY FADED.
|
|
|
|
ONE LEAK FROM INSIDE THE ATTIC, APPEARED TO BE AROUND A VENT.
|
|
|
|
THE FIN-ALL ALUMINUM SHINGLES WERE NOTICEABLY FADED, AND COVERED IN A BLACK MOLD.
|
|
|
|
OTHER LEAKS SHOWED UP IN THEIR FRONT LIVING ROOM.
|
|
|
|
WHEN WE REMOVED THE ALUMINUM SHINGLES, WE FOUND LEAKS UNDER THE VENTS AND RIDGE CAPS.
|
|
|
|
THIS EXPENSIVE ALUMINUM ROOF WAS SUPPOSED TO LAST A LIFETIME. THE COMPANY WHO MAKES THESE INTERLOCKING SHINGLES, IS STILL GOING STRONG. THEY HAVE CHANGED THEIR NAME, TO AVOID WARRANTY CLAIMS.
|
|
|
|
THERE WERE EXTENSIVE DECK REPAIRS, DUE TO IMPROPER APPLICATION OF THE PRODUCT.
|
|
|
|
DEFICIENCIES IN THE RIDGE CAP SYSTEM, CAUSED EXTENSIVE DAMAGE.
|
|
|
|
IN THE END,THE NEW ROOF SOLVED THE ISSUES OF LEAKAGE.
|
|
|
|
SOON AFTER WE DID THE JOB, WE NOTICED A "FOR SALE" SIGN, ON THE PROPERTY.
