Damaged roof replaced in Esko

This home in Thomson Township near Esko had shingles worn through to holes in several places by early spring. Rather than patch spot after spot, the fix was a new Owens Corning Duration roof. We tore the old roof off, ran ice-and-water shield along the eaves and around the chimney, rebuilt the chimney flashing, and finished with new drip edge, plumbing vent flashings and ridge venting so the attic can breathe. The job was completed in August 2026.

What we found

• Shingles worn through to holes in several places by early spring.
• An old roof where patching spot after spot would not have held.

What we did

1. Tore the old roof off down to the deck.
2. Ran ice-and-water shield along the eaves, in the valleys and around the chimney and other penetrations.
3. Rebuilt the chimney flashing with step and counter flashing instead of caulking over it.
4. Added new drip edge, new plumbing vent flashings and ridge venting so the attic can breathe.
5. Finished with Owens Corning Duration shingles, backed by the Owens Corning warranty.
