Roof Repair

Lower Roof Reshingle

This roof repair in Marietta, GA restored protection to a lower roof slope using GAF Natural Shadow Hickory architectural shingles. The project addressed deteriorated decking, flashing deficiencies, and water intrusion along the wall line, extending the service life of the existing roof system without a full replacement.


Project Overview

After signs of moisture intrusion and soft decking were observed on the lower roof slope, the homeowner requested an inspection to determine the extent of the damage. The evaluation confirmed that the affected area extended from the right hip to the left rake and required removal and replacement of the existing roofing materials. Rather than replacing the entire roof, a targeted repair approach was recommended to correct the compromised slope and improve water management along the wall under the eave.


Results

The repair successfully restored the integrity of the lower roof section. The existing shingles were removed, damaged tongue-and-groove decking was replaced as needed, and the entire slope was reinforced with StormGuard ice & water shield for enhanced leak protection. New flashing was installed against the wall line to improve drainage and prevent future water intrusion.

The slope was then re-shingled using GAF Natural Shadow Hickory architectural shingles, with matching hip and ridge components for a cohesive appearance. All flashing and exposed fasteners were sealed using 2100 roofing sealant, ensuring long-term durability. With the repair completed to manufacturer and industry standards, the roof now provides renewed protection and reliable performance.
