Skylight & Roof Penetration Repair – Acworth, GA
This roof repair in Acworth, GA restored protection and functionality to the home by addressing multiple compromised roof penetrations and worn shingles. The project focused on replacing failing components, reinforcing waterproofing, and ensuring long-term performance while maintaining the home’s existing appearance.
Project Overview
The homeowner reported issues related to roof penetrations and surrounding shingles, including a failing skylight, worn vent components, and areas vulnerable to water intrusion. An inspection confirmed deterioration around these penetrations, requiring targeted repairs rather than a full roof replacement.
The scope of work included replacing an existing skylight, installing new vent components, reinforcing the surrounding areas with ice and water shield, and completing shingle repairs to properly seal all penetrations. These focused repairs were designed to prevent leaks and restore confidence in the roof’s performance.
Results
The completed repairs restored proper waterproofing and protection across all affected areas of the roof. A new skylight and updated vent components improved functionality and reliability, while GAF Timberline HDZ shingles in Charcoal blended seamlessly with the existing roofing system. Enhanced sealing and underlayment installation significantly improved weather resistance, extending the life of the roof and reducing the risk of future leaks.
