It’s gratifying to help homeowners re-use their roofing material because of its quality and longevity. This Lee’s Summit homeowner was experiencing leaks, but its Ludowici terra cotta clay tile was holding firm. Instead, the waterproof underlayment beneath the tiles had deteriorated and allowed moisture to penetrate. Our task was to remove the underlayment while preserving all the Ludowici tiles. Once a new waterproof membrane was installed, thousands of tiles were re-attached to the roof of this lakeside home. The key? Quality materials that last and a team experienced in giving roofs TLC.
