Absolute Home Improvements completed this insurance-approved roofing and exterior repair project on a single-family home in New Berlin, Wisconsin after a fallen tree caused damage to the roof, chimney, and gutter system. Our team assisted the homeowner throughout the insurance claims process, helping document the damage and secure approval for the necessary repairs.
Once approved, the project began with the removal of two layers of existing asphalt shingles to fully expose the roof structure. Owens Corning Duration 30-Year asphalt shingles were then installed in the color Estate Gray, providing durable protection and a clean, updated appearance. As part of the roofing system upgrade, attic ventilation was improved with the installation of Owens Corning SureVent ridge vent to promote proper airflow and long-term roof performance.
While the roof was removed, the existing chimney—no longer in use—was taken down just below the roofline to eliminate a future maintenance concern and potential leak point. Although the gutter system sustained damage, the homeowner chose not to replace the gutters and instead applied those funds toward their insurance deductible. The project was completed efficiently, restoring the home’s roof and improving overall performance after storm-related damage.
