Our 21yo cedar shake roof was already looking pretty tired, but after two ugly wind storms and a 45’ pine tree falling onto the house, it was time for a refresh. We had contacted a few roofing companies to bid on this job, but in the end, only David from Landmark left us feeling that we would honestly get what we were paying for in the end. Initially, we were going with the Landmark Pro from Certainteed, but after some consultation with David, we decided that we would go with the newer Certainteed “Northgate” SBS Modified shingle system in Moire Black.
Besides a roof, we also needed the entire built-in gutter system replaced as it was in very rough shape, as well as not even being installed properly when the home was built. Clogging, ponding and overflow was common. This also caused rotting of our outer fascia trim as well as some rot to our sub-fascia. A bit of extra work, but no problem for Landmark. David had all the new 2x10 primed fascia delivered in advance, and we painted it ourselves to save some labour cost.
Bad weather caused delays in starting the project, but once we felt we had a run of a few days of good weather, David’s crew showed up promptly and got right to work. The forecast kept changing but the crew made sure that everything was buttoned up every day in case of any overnight rain, and we experienced no problems.
Start to finish, re-roof, complete gutter system, skylights, matching black metal trim, venting, sub-fascia rot repair and all 400’ of outer fascia replaced, the installation took 5 days, as was expected.
Can’t say enough about the crew of Rob, Jake & Jeff. Completely professional and detail oriented. Our house looks fantastic. I would definitely have no problem recommending Landmark Roofing to anyone and we even have a couple people coming to see what a professionally installed roof looks like. Before & after photos included.
