Lithonia Ridge Vent and Pipe Boot Repair
This roof repair in Lithonia, GA restored localized protection to the home by addressing ridge vent issues, damaged shingles, and a compromised pipe penetration.

Project Overview
Following weather exposure, the homeowner noticed issues along the ridge line and around a roof penetration, including shingle deterioration and reduced protection.
