Over time, even the best roofs begin to show signs of wear, especially on homes exposed to changing weather conditions year after year like we experience here in Pennsylvania. This hillside home in Carlisle- that really took a beating because of the wind- was dealing with an aging roof that had reached the point where repairs were no longer enough and just didn’t make financial sense
Years of exposure had left the roof worn down and vulnerable, with visible wind damage affecting the shingles across multiple areas.
The Problem: Age-Related Wear and Wind Damage
As roofing materials age, even the best quality products gradually lose their ability to withstand strong winds and harsh weather. On this home, the shingles had become brittle and weakened over time, making them more susceptible to lifting and damage during storms.
Because of the home’s hillside location, the roof experienced consistent exposure to wind and weather, accelerating the aging process even further. Missing and damaged shingles were clear signs that the roof was no longer providing dependable protection.
When a roof reaches this stage, replacing the system is often the safest and most cost-effective long-term solution. And if you’re a homeowner in Central PA, you might be nodding your head because your home has the same issues. The good news is that our experienced, professional crew at Marroquin Exteriors can fix your failing roof, too, often in just one day!
The Solution: Owens Corning Duration Series in Brownwood
To restore protection and improve the home’s appearance, the existing roofing system was replaced with Owens Corning Duration Series shingles in Brownwood.
The Brownwood color added warmth and dimension to the home while complementing the natural surroundings of the hillside property. Beyond the updated appearance, the new roofing system provides significantly improved durability, the SureNail® Technology and incredible wind resistance compared to the aging roof it replaced.
The upgraded shingles are designed to perform through Pennsylvania’s changing seasons while giving the homeowner greater peace of mind during severe weather.
A Fresh Look with Long-Term Protection
The transformation gave this Carlisle home more than just curb appeal; it restored confidence in the home’s protection from the top, down.
What was once an aging, wind-damaged roof is now a clean, durable roofing system built to handle the elements for years to come. The updated Brownwood shingles brought new life to the exterior while ensuring the home is properly protected moving forward.
Is Your Roof Showing Signs of Age?
If your roof has missing shingles, visible wear or recurring wind damage, it may be time to consider replacement options before leaks and structural issues develop. As water find weak points in your roof, it can trickle down to the foundation causing a slew of unwanted problems.
A professionally installed roofing system not only protects your home: it improves efficiency, appearance and long-term value.
