45 foot gutter and downspout replacement.

In Germantown, WI, a homeowner is seeking a roof replacement and installation. The project involves tearing down a 2"x2" chimney, covering the opening, and installing a new vent. The homeowner is also looking for an estimate on a complete roof replacement, covering a total of 3,665 square feet, with IKO Dynasty shingles in the Driftshake color. The roof's age is unknown, and the homeowner has lived in the house for 10 years. Additional ventilation may also be required.

We re-estimated a project that required a full roof replacement with Emerald Green IKO asphalt shingles. During the assessment, we removed the kickouts and valley controllers due to space constraints. The project also involved replacing term bars with a drip edge, as we wanted to avoid using term bars on this roof. The estimate came in about 1K high on the asphalt side but 1k low on the EPDM side, resulting in a balanced cost. For the DCI smart ridges, Beacon can supply them, but they need to be special ordered.

The homeowner considered reusing the existing drip edge to save costs but ultimately decided to have Leaf guards remove the gutters for 2k. As an engineer, he thoroughly analyzed all options before making a decision. Although he would have liked to eliminate the box vents on the front side, a ridge vent was not feasible due to potential interference with the rubber to asphalt transition. The total roof area for this project is 11.5 SQ.

In Wauwatosa, WI, a homeowner required a complete roof replacement for their 15-year-old roof, which had leaking issues and water damage causing rotting boards. Our team planned to replace the rubber roof, install new boards, and ensure proper drainage with Raindrop gutter guards. We selected IKO Dynasty shingles in the Brownstone color. The project also involved installing new step flashing and addressing chimney flashing needs. The total area of the roof was 3038 sqft, and we also replaced the roof on their garage, covering 757 sqft.

In Wauwatosa, WI, the homeowner, who just bought the house and is still moving in, needs a full roof replacement. The roof is old, and an inspector has recommended replacement due to inadequate ventilation in the attic. The project includes installing a ridge vent over the main house, new box vents over the garage and rear first-story room, and replacing the chimney flashing. The chosen shingle color is IKO Dynasty in Granite Black, covering 2,612 sqft.
