GAF Camelot II Designer Shingle Roof Installation in Brooklyn, NY
This Brooklyn home had a failing shingle roof where materials were deteriorating and shingles were literally falling off. Water intrusion had already begun, and the roof deck showed signs of structural damage. SwiftBuild performed a complete tear-off and premium GAF designer roofing system installation to restore protection, durability, and curb appeal.
🔎 Roof Condition Before Replacement
The existing roofing system had reached the end of its lifespan and was improperly holding together. Key issues included:
- Loose and falling shingles
- Water infiltration risks
- Rotten roof decking areas
- Aging valleys prone to leaks
- Deteriorated fascia and gutter system
A simple repair would not solve the underlying issues. A full roofing system replacement was necessary.
🪵 Step 1: Roof Deck & Structural Repairs
After removing the old shingles, SwiftBuild inspected the roof deck and found compromised wood.
- Removed all rotten decking
- Installed new 5/8” exterior-grade plywood
- Reinforced the roof structure for long-term performance
A strong deck is critical — premium shingles will fail if installed over weak wood.
🛡 Step 2: High-Performance Roofing System Installation
SwiftBuild installed a complete GAF roofing system designed for maximum protection against New York weather.
- Ice & Water Shield for leak-prone areas
- GAF Deck-Armor underlayment for breathable moisture protection
- New copper valley installation for superior durability and drainage
- Proper flashing integration throughout the roof
This layered system prevents leaks, improves ventilation, and extends roof life.
🏠 Step 3: Camelot II Designer Shingles Installation
To finish the project, SwiftBuild installed GAF Camelot II Designer Shingles — a luxury architectural shingle known for elegance, depth, and durability.
- Premium dimensional appearance
- High wind resistance
- Long lifespan compared to standard shingles
- Enhanced curb appeal and property value
🔧 Step 4: Fascia & Gutter System Upgrade
To complete the exterior restoration, SwiftBuild replaced all deteriorated trim and drainage components.
- Removed old gutters
- Installed new wood fascia boards
- Installed aluminum fascia wrap for protection
- Installed brand-new gutter system
This ensures proper water drainage and protects the roof edges and structure.
✅ Final Result
- New structural decking
- Ice & water shield protection
- GAF Deck-Armor underlayment
- Durable copper valleys
- Luxury Camelot II designer shingles
