Complete Roofing Project in Washington Crossing, PA

For this project in Washington Crossing, Pennsylvania, we completed a full roof replacement on the main house using a premium GAF roofing system. The homeowners wanted a durable, high-performance roof that would provide long-term protection against Pennsylvania’s changing weather while enhancing the overall appearance of the home.

By installing a complete roofing system rather than simply replacing shingles, we ensured that every component works together to provide superior performance and weather resistance.

Removal of Existing Roofing Materials

The project began with the complete removal of the existing roofing materials. Once the roof deck was exposed, we thoroughly inspected the substrate to verify that it provided a solid foundation for the new system.

During this phase, we:

• Removed the old roofing system from the main house
• Inspected the roof decking for any signs of damage
• Performed repairs where necessary to ensure structural integrity

A solid roof deck is essential for maximizing the lifespan and performance of the new roofing system.

Installation of a Complete GAF Roofing System

To provide multiple layers of protection, we installed a complete GAF roofing system, which included:

• GAF Deck-Armor® synthetic underlayment
• GAF WeatherWatch® ice and water shield
• New drip edge
• GAF Pro-Start® starter strips
• New step flashing
• New pipe boots
• GAF Timberline® architectural shingles
• GAF ridge vent system
• GAF Seal-A-Ridge® hip and ridge cap shingles

All shingles were installed using a six-nail fastening pattern to enhance wind resistance and provide long-lasting durability.

Counter Flashing Improvements

As part of the project, we installed new counter flashing wherever siding transitions met the roof.

These critical transition areas are especially vulnerable to water intrusion, and proper flashing helps:

• Direct water away from the roof system
• Protect siding and wall assemblies
• Reduce the risk of leaks
• Improve the long-term performance of the roofing system

Attention to these details helps ensure the roof performs as a complete weather-resistant system.

Thorough Cleanup and Debris Removal

After the installation was completed, our team thoroughly cleaned the property and removed all roofing debris and waste materials.

Maintaining a clean job site is an important part of every project and helps ensure the homeowner can immediately enjoy their newly installed roof.
