GAF Designer Shingle Roof Installation
This project took place in the Cliffs at Glassy Mountain. The homeowner had multiple leaks throughout the house and requested an estimate from our company. After a thorough analysis, we proposed new archictectural shingles with a few upgrade options to designer shingles. THe homeowner eventually decided on the GAF Camelot II shingles and new half-round gutters. The project took 2 weeks to complete and included: replacing two skylights, installing GAF ice and water shield across the field of the roof, open metal valleys, custom fabricated drip edge, GAF Cobra ridge vent and high-end cap shingles. Leaf Relief gutter covers were also installed due to the difficulty of keeping the gutters clean, mainly because of the height and steepness of the roof.
Leaking Plumbing Boot on Roof in Taylors, SC
This homeowner called Roof Roof becuase she had a leak in her roof. We sent out one of our representatives to investigate the leak. He inspected the roof and determined that the leak was a result of one that had been going on for a while. The OSB sheathing was completely rotten and water was coming in close to a nail. We discussed the options with the homeowner and she selected our company for the repair.  We began by removing the existing plumbing boot and shingles. Once that was complete, we cut out the existing sheet of OSB decking and installed a new piece. Ice and water shield was installed around the boot. Ice and water shield is a good product to use for repairs as it is self-sealing and a lot stonger than most felt underlayments. After the ice and water shield was installed, we began installing new shingles. A new plumbing boot was then installed. We finished it off with a U.V. Guard to help the boot hold up against the sun's damaging UV rays. The process took 2 hours to complete.  No more leaks!
New TPO Industrial Roof in Gaffney, SC
After completing the lower office roofs, this company selected Roof Roof to install a new roof over their warehouse. Water was coming in at each end of the building and was running over the main electrical panel. The issue that they had was the scuppers were not large enough to handle the amount of water coming off of the roof. Since the roof was nearing the end of its life, they decided to install a brand new roof.  We began by removing the wet insulation at the bottom edges. We then installed new polyisocyanurate insulation. A 1" coverboard was then installed on the existing roof. Versico 60 mil TPO was installed over the entire field of the roof. All curbs and penetrations were custom flashed. The scuppers were cut open to allow more water to flow through them. Crickets were installed between each scupper to help divert water to the scuppers. The finish the project we installed new coping cap around the entire perimeter of the building.  All material was installed by FM Global guidelines and a 20 year warranty was given on the project. The project took 3 months to complete
Silicon Roof Coating in Pickens, SC
This is the old Pickens Jail in Pickens, SC. The customer called about having multiple leaks. We advised for a total roof replacement, but that was out of her budget. The current roof was a built-up roof, so we told her we could coat it. We started the job by pressure washing and cleaning the entire roof surface. We fixed all holes and cracks with APOC liquidflash and fabric. We also applied two coats of APOC Elastomeric silicone roof coating. This seals the top layer of roofing, and it provides a finish that reflects UV rays. The job took 3 days to complete.
New Sun Tunnel Installation in Salem, SC
This homeowner had a roof that was nearing the end of its life. They decided to be proactive and get the roof replaced before it caused any extensive damage. While browsing through shingle choices they discovered the 14" Velux Sun Tunnel. With a dark living room, they needed some more light inside. We quoted the sun tunnel with the roof replacement and they accepted our proposal. While the roof was being installed, we marked a location on the inside of the living room where they would like the lens to be centered. We got in the attic to make sure it was centered between the rafters. After centering the lens, we cut out the drywall per the instructions. We then installed the lens in the newly cut out hole. We measured from the new lens to the roof decking and put a screw through the roof deck to mark where the hole needed to be cut on the roof. After getting on the roof, we cut out the circle where the base of the sun tunnel would go. The base was installed and screwed down, flashed in and new shingles were installed around it. We then installed the supplied light tube into the sun tunnel base and connected it to the lens. Lastly, we put on the clear acrylic cap. The customer was ecstatic over the amount of light the sun tunnel brought it.

Old Roof Replacement in Easley
This customer needed a new roof due to the age of his current one. The shingles were losing granules. The roof was prematurely deteriorating. If not replaced, the asphalt that the shingles were made of would have deteriorated and eventually caused leaks. Our roofing consultant evaluated the roof, and he advised the homeowner to replace it. We removed the existing roof, replaced 1 sheet of plywood, installed Owen's Corning ice and water shield in all valleys, walls, and penetrations, as well as granulated cap sheet in the low slope valleys, Rex Synthetic underlayment, Owens Corning Duration shingles in Williamsburg Gray, and Owen's Corning high flow, shingle over style ridge vent. We also replaced (2) power fans. Lastly, we installed 2 Velux C01 skylights with Velux flashing kits. It only took 3 days to complete this job.  
Water Infiltration problem in Easley, SC
Roof Roof was called out to this homeowners property because of leaks she had been dealing with for many years. We thoroughly inspected the roof and determined there were several different issues going on. 1.) The roof to wall flashing was not installed properly.  2.) The roof ran directly into the wall at an angle. 3.) The "off the ridge" ridge vent was blocking the water from escaping and therefore backing up in the house 4.) The roof had to of a low slope for just shingles and felt paper 5.) The plywood, board, and batten siding was beginning to rot 6.) Squirrels had chewed through a rotten piece of decking 7.) Carpenter bees had burroughed in the fascia boards After we determined the issues, we put together an action plan to stop the leaks for good. The homeowner accepted our proposal and we started the project within 2 weeks.  We began by removing the existing roof, siding, and gutters. We then replaced a small amount of fascia and soffit which the squirrel burroughed in (problem 6 fixed). Then, we installed new aluminim fascia and drip edge on all eaves and rakes (problem 7 fixed). Next, we installed ice and water shield on the entire field of the roof (problem 4 fixed). After the self adhering underlayment went down, the shingling began. We installed starter shingles and Owens Corning Oakridge Williamsburg grey shingles. For ventilation, we installed a DCI SmartVent which is an "off the ridge" ridge vent (problem 3 fixed). When we got to the walls, we installed an angled steplflashing to match the angle the roof ran into the wall (problem 1 and 2 fixed). We finished off the roof with a custom fabricated metal cap, mechanically attached with neoprene gasketed screws. After the roof was completed, we installed vinyl J-channel and new Mastic Vinyl siding to match the rest of the house (problem 5 fixed) The work took 2 days to complete.
Roof Replacement Due to Hail Damage in Piedmont
This Piedmont home suffered from hail damage. Roof Roof installed 5,300 sq ft of Owen's Corning Duration shingles in Brownwood for the full roof replacement. Owen's Corning accessories (hip and ridge shingles, starter strip, ice and water shield, etc) were also used.  This roof proved to be a little tricky due to the odd angles and facets. They weren't what you would typically find on an average roof. Normally, we weave the shingles in the valley, but we weren't able to install them that way this time. We had to perform a closed cut on the valley for performance anesthetics, meaning that we had to wrap the shingles from one facet of the roof up the other facet. Lastly, we had to bring the shingles from the opposite side to the valley, then cut them down the middle.
