Litespeed Construction recently completed a full roof replacement on a highly complex roofing system after a detailed inspection revealed widespread storm and age-related damage. The roof showed extensive granule loss, multiple hail impact hits, missing and sliding shingles, creased shingles, missing hip shingles, and exposed fiber mat areas. These issues indicated that the roof was no longer providing dependable protection and needed a complete replacement rather than isolated repairs.

For the replacement, the crew installed a complete roofing system using Tech Wrap synthetic underlayment, Ice and Water Shield in vulnerable areas, GAF Pro-Start starter strips, and GAF Timberline NS Natural Shadow shingles. These materials were selected to improve water protection, wind resistance, and long-term roof performance.

Because of the roof’s complexity, proper preparation, detailing, and installation were especially important. The finished project gave the home a cleaner appearance while restoring reliable protection against rain, wind, and future storm exposure.
