CASE STUDY
Location: Palatine, IL
Services: Roof Replacement, Solar Panel Installation
Estimated Cost: $16,000
Job Duration: 1 Day
A resident of Palatine, IL, reached out to Holda Construction seeking a solution for a deteriorating roof, where the existing asphalt shingles were worn and damaged. The roof could have lasted another five years but, looking towards the future, the clients recognized that their roof needed to be updated to support a new solar panel system, as it would be very difficult (and likely more costly) to repair the roof once solar panels were installed.
Taking a look at all aspects of the client’s unique situation, we proposed installing new, durable asphalt shingles from GAF. These shingles are not only aesthetically pleasing but also feature GAF’s advanced algae protection technology, ensuring long-lasting beauty and minimal maintenance. The new roof, designed to endure the harsh Illinois weather conditions, would provide a strong and durable base for the solar panels. The new solar panels were to be installed concurrently with the roof to optimize the home’s energy efficiency and functionality.
Leaving the deteriorating roof be could lead to severe structural issues, such as leaks and internal water damage, especially after the installation of solar panels. Without the new roof, the solar panels might not function at their optimal level, potentially leading to increased utility costs and decreased safety and comfort for the homeowner. Repairing the roof after the installation of solar panels would be more complicated and, therefore, more costly due to needing to move or work around the solar panel array.
Holda Construction meticulously planned and executed the project to replace the roof and install new solar panels. Concurrently, a masonry company was contracted to remove the home’s brick chimney, making additional space for the solar panels: this called for our team to install new plywood, an ice and water barrier and shingles to fill this opening. Our team worked closely with the homeowner to ensure the new installations aligned with their specific needs and aesthetic preferences. The new GAF shingles, known for their algae protection technology and comprehensive warranty, were installed in their Hunter Green Color, providing a secure base for the high-quality new solar panels.
The project was completed on time and within budget, resulting in a seamless integration of the new roof and solar panels into the home’s existing architecture. The homeowner was extremely satisfied with the outcome, appreciating our team’s attention to detail and professionalism. This upgrade not only resolved the immediate structural issues but significantly boosted the property’s value and enhanced the homeowner’s quality of life.
