What the roof was like
A house near the water where wind off the Sound had been lifting and cracking the old shingles every winter.
What made it hard
The site is the most exposed of our neighbourhoods and we could only work between weather windows. Fastening patterns mattered more than the colour of the tile.
What we installed, and why
We followed the manufacturer's high wind fastening pattern, added starter and edge details at the eaves and rakes and finished with sealed ridge caps.
The result
The roof has come through its first stormy season with no lifted tiles.
