Garage Roof Replacement After a Botched Install

A bad roof install doesn't just look rough - it causes real damage over time. That's exactly what we were dealing with here. The previous work left this garage roof in terrible shape. The fascia had rotted out completely, and the gutters had already fallen off by the time we got there.

When a roof is installed poorly, it doesn't fail all at once. It slowly breaks down the structure underneath. That's why when we stripped everything back, a full redeck was the only right move. No shortcuts, no covering up the problem with new shingles on top of a bad base.

We started from scratch. Old decking came off, new OSB went down clean across the entire roof, and then we layered in the underlayment before a single shingle was placed. New fascia boards replaced the rotted ones, and new fascia metal went on to protect the edges properly this time. Everything was done in the right order, the right way.

The finished roof tells the whole story. Clean hip lines, tight ridge work, uniform shingles laid edge to edge - this is what a proper garage roof replacement looks like. No lifted tabs, no gaps, no questionable flashing. Just solid workmanship built to last.

Bad installs have a way of hiding until they don't anymore. If you've got a roof that was done by someone else and something feels off - water stains, gutters pulling away, fascia that looks soft - those are signs worth getting looked at before the damage goes deeper.
