Roofing 

At Angela R. Brown Construction, LLC we know that a roof is a major part of your commercial property, and we’re here to help with the responsibility of repair or replacement.  

A new roof is not only important for performance reasons, but can also enhance the visual appearance of your property.  A new roof can help improve the look of your exterior, and increase the value of your property.  A damaged roof may be subject to leakage, and aging, or flat roofs may require other updates in order to be strong enough to keep the elements out throughout the year. When you have a roofing issue, selecting the right Contractor is important to help you consider the options in roof replacement.

You can trust that the roofing installers at Angela R. Brown Construction, LLC are reliable, and we stand behind the work we do 100%. We know that roof repair and replacement is an important process, and we pay attention to every roof detail from start to finish. We will start with an inspection, and help you consider different roofing options before we begin. We provide an easy, free consultation to determine and discuss your specific project, as well as your specific roofing needs.

Shingles

Angela R. Brown Restoration and Construction, LLC supplies and installs both entry-level traditional three-tab shingles and architectural designer type fiberglass shingles.

​25 and 30-year 3-Tab Shingles  
Traditional three-tab, self sealing asphalt shingles have a smooth appearance and a pro-rated warranty of 25 to 30 years. The main difference between the life expectancy of certain shingles is the weight and thickness. As an industry-standard, this type of shingle is more economical and easier to install. 

Designer & Architectural Shingles

Architectural self sealing, fibreglass shingles simulate cedar shingles in appearance, but are much more durable and weather-resistant. They have a layered (3D) look to them that is the result of having multiple layers of material. Though more expensive than traditional 3-tab and generally more laborous to install, architectural shingles provide longer pro-rated warranties and are generally thicker and heavier than standard 3-tab shingles.  Their higher resistance to weather conditions help to raise the overall value of the house.
What to expect during a shingle roof installation:
  • Property protection and coverage using plywood and tarps.
  • Removal of ALL old roofing material.
  • Repair and replacement of rotten sheathing (boards/plywood) underneath the shingles if needed.
  • Re-nailing and re-securing of roof deck.  This will help enhance the look of the roof by providing a flat surface to install the new material.
  • Installation of drip edge metal flashing to the eavestrough area of the roof.  This will minimize animal entry and leaky eavestroughs.
  • Synthetic underlayment installation.  
  • Installation of shingles.  These are fastened using galvanized nails.
  • Proper ventilation – shingle roof vents, bathroom exhaust vents, ridge venting.  Venting is designed to provide continuous air flow to remove condensation.  Improperly vented roof structures could reduce the life expectancy of shingles upwards of 25% and make it more costly heating and cooling your property.
  • Installation of metal flashing details i.e. chimney, valleys, intersecting walls.
  • Caulking, sealing, and clean up of all debris. 

Carpentry

It should be noted that the roofing material is only as good as the decking to which it is fastened to.  If the sloping shingles and flat roof look wavy and rippled, have indentations and are holding ponding water in various spots outside of wear and tear, the problem may be with the structure. That is why we provide customized carpentry solutions and options that target the overall roof structure and appearance.  From basic roof board replacement and installation of plywood sheathing, to reframing, resloping, attic stabilizing and redesign. We can help design a roof that’s right for you!


​Soffit, Fascia, and Siding

Angela R. Brown Restoration and Construction, LLC installs aluminum soffit and fascia cladding that is maintenance free and corrosion resistant. These pre-painted aluminum panels come in a variety of different colors and styles to match your home's exterior. Soffit and fascia panels are used to clad the overhang assembly around the perimeter of a shingle roof.
​
Soffit vents are needed to provide air circulation within the roof structure to prevent condensation and mold issues. Older properties generally have wood soffit and fascia details which require ongoing maintenance and repairs. Consider going maintenance free!

Fascia aluminum is a cladding that covers the wood fascia boards and is installed behind the eavestroughing as is part of the overall assembly.

Eavestroughing and Leaf Guard

Angela R. Brown Restoration and Construction, LLC installs pre-painted, aluminum 5” and 6” seamless eaves troughing. This system of troughing and downpipes is designed to carry water away from house foundations. The advantage of aluminum is its maintenance free design, as it does not rust, and is available in many colors to complement a homes exterior. Your eaves troughing is only as strong as the wood fascia boards or rafters that it is attached to. Always make sure that rotten and damaged wood is properly replaced prior to installing the eaves trough.

Installing a Leaf Guard system is highly recommended for properties such as apartment complexes who have trees nearby and want to minimize cleaning and maintenance. Eavestroughing systems with out Leaf Guard generally need to be cleaned out twice a year, in spring and fall to function optimally. Debris can negatively affect water flow, and in the winter months ice and snow build-up can force its way under the roofing material and potentially enter the structure causing water damage.
A Leaf Guard system:
  • Protects the eavestrough from leaves and debris from clogging
  • Provides additional strength to the overall structure of the eavestrough and will greatly minimize cleaning and maintenance.

Roof Ventilation

Proper ventilation is essential in gaining the maximum life out of your shingle and flat roof. Properties without proper ventilation risk shortening the life expectancy of their roof by approximately 25%. Overlooking the roofing and soffit ventilation system in your property can result in:
  1. premature failure of the roofing material
  2. buckling of the roofing due to deck movement
  3. rotting of the wood members
  4. moisture accumulation in insulation
  5. increased heating and A/C costs
With proper ventilation air will circulate freely under the roof deck and carry away water vapour before it can condense. One of the best methods is a combination of eaves or soffit vents and ridge or roof vents which provide a natural draft from bottom to the top of attic space. At Angela R. Brown Restoration and Construction, LLC, we can design a ventilation system to suite your needs.
Types of venting we install:
  • Aluminum sloping shingle vents
  • Turbine and ridge vents
  • Bathroom exhaust vents
  • Soffit eaves vents and gable louver vents
