Full Garage Roof Replacement in Freeport, NY
This detached garage in Freeport had an aging shingle roof with deteriorated decking and failing edge components. Water exposure and long-term wear had weakened the structure, making a full roofing system replacement necessary. SwiftBuild completed a complete tear-off and new Owens Corning roofing system installation to restore durability, protection, and long-term performance.
🔎 Existing Roof Condition
The old garage roof showed multiple issues that required more than surface repair:
- Worn and aging shingles
- Compromised and weakened plywood decking
- Outdated underlayment protection
- Deteriorated fascia and gutter system
To ensure long-term protection, SwiftBuild recommended a full system replacement from the deck up.
🪵 Step 1: Tear-Off & Deck Replacement
The project began with a complete removal of the existing roofing system.
- Full tear-off of old shingles and underlayment
- Removal of old, deteriorated plywood decking
- Installation of new 5/8” exterior-grade plywood for a strong structural base
A solid deck ensures the new roofing materials perform as designed and prevents future structural issues.
🛡 Step 2: Advanced Roof Protection System
SwiftBuild installed a complete moisture protection system designed to defend against leaks and harsh weather.
- New drip edge installation to protect roof edges
- Ice & Water Shield in leak-prone areas
- Synthetic roofing underlayment for breathable secondary protection
This multi-layer system improves durability and extends the lifespan of the roof.
🏠 Step 3: Owens Corning Shingle Installation
The garage was finished with high-quality Owens Corning shingles, known for their strength, weather resistance, and long-term performance.
- Professional installation following manufacturer guidelines
- Improved curb appeal
- Reliable protection against wind and rain
🔧 Step 4: Fascia & Gutter Replacement
To complete the project and ensure proper drainage, SwiftBuild replaced all failing edge components.
- Removal of old gutters
- New fascia board installation
- Installation of new gutter system
This protects the garage structure from water damage and directs rainwater away from the building.
