My beautiful new roof.


One of the things I was looking at when I was buying a house was that house wouldnt need a major repair within the first 5 years and then I went and bought a house that had inspection issues, so I knew going into it that I had some issues going on. Although inhindsight I probably should've had a contractor look over the things on the inspection report instead of taking the inspectors word that most things were okay even though there were issues. Anyways the first major home repair I had to pay for was a new roof not to mention that I discovered that the roof was starting to rot on Christmas morning. Because it was raining I guess this below caught my eye for the first time 
Luckily my brother-in-law/boss  had a roof contractor to refer me to call because he trust his opinion and work. I called his company (on tops roofing) after the holiday and he came out & gave a very fair replacement option and Upgrade option. Once I funded the project I called the contractor to schedule/order and a week later I have a brand-new roof that I don't have to worry about leakage or rotting wood spreading. I decided to go with the upgrade option which was the gaf-hd timberline roof and for the color I choose Williamsburg slate.
To be honest I was super worried about the color because when I googled it & saw pictures I only liked half the time as far as curb appeal. I'm glad I didn't change the color. I couldn't be happier with the end result & Chris and his crew were nothing but professional and great to deal with. 
Check out the before and after pics. (I cant stop taking pictures of my house now.)
