Localized Roof Repair – Marietta, GA
This roof repair in Marietta, GA restored localized protection to a steep-slope, two-story home by addressing damaged shingles and a compromised pipe penetration. The project focused on correcting vulnerable areas to improve weather resistance and prevent active or future leaks while maintaining the integrity of the existing roofing system.
Project Overview
The homeowner reported concerns related to a roof penetration and surrounding shingles on a 10/12 pitch, two-story roof. An inspection confirmed localized damage around a pipe boot area, including worn flashing and affected shingles that required immediate attention. While the remainder of the roof remained serviceable, targeted repairs were necessary to prevent water intrusion at this high-risk penetration point.
The scope of work included replacing damaged architectural shingles, installing a new 3-in-1 pipe boot with rain collar, and reinforcing the area with ice and water shield and proper sealing to ensure long-term performance.
Results
The completed repairs restored proper sealing and protection around the affected penetration. GAF Timberline architectural shingles in Pewter Gray were installed to blend seamlessly with the existing roof, maintaining curb appeal while ensuring durable coverage. The new pipe boot, reinforced underlayment, and sealant application significantly improved water resistance at the repaired area, extending the life of the roof and reducing the risk of future leaks.
