The roofing project in Mt. Prospect aimed to revitalize and enhance the durability and functionality of the existing roof. The project involved several key elements, including partial plywood replacement to address any underlying structural issues. Additionally, a new ice and water barrier and synthetic felt were installed to provide superior protection against moisture and ensure longevity.
To improve ventilation and maintain a comfortable interior environment, a continuous ridge vent was incorporated into the roof design. This allowed for proper airflow and prevented the build-up of excess heat and humidity.
The roof's visual appeal was enhanced with the installation of GAF Timberline HDZ color shingles. These high-quality shingles not only offered exceptional durability but also came in a variety of attractive colors to complement the overall aesthetics of the building.
Furthermore, the project included the installation of new aluminum chimney flashing and gutters. These additions not only enhanced the roof's functionality but also contributed to the overall longevity of the roofing system by effectively directing water away from the structure.
By undertaking this comprehensive roofing project, the goal was to provide a long-lasting and visually appealing roofing solution that improved the functionality, energy efficiency, and aesthetics of the building in Mt. Prospect.
