Another synthetic cedar shake roof replaced and a stunning Brava Shake roof installed in Lisle. With a wonderful appearance in a multitude of colors, great life expectancy, and competitive price point, Brava composite shake is becoming much more popular as a cedar shake roof replacement option.

This roof replacement in Lisle was another one of our projects that displayed how natural a synthetic roof product can look. Brava composite shake always steals the spotlight with the right color, variable widths of pieces, and a texture that is not much different than cedar shake. On top of being a very attractive roof from the appearance and cost standpoint, this Brava shake roof replacement also carries a great 50-year limited warranty.

While replacing this old cedar shake roof in Lisle, we also recommended replacing the skylights and replacing the gutters. With new Velux solar powered skylights and blinds, the homeowner can open the skylights with the press of a button. No need for any electrical connections, just a solar panel on the outside of the skylight, installed by our crews. The solar powered blinds ensure that even on the sunniest day, the blinds can be closed to allow some shade. New aluminum gutters and downspouts help drain the large amount of water this roof collects during rain storms. A new RainDrop leaf guard system will make sure that the gutters do not get clogged and allow all the water to drain as needed. While replacing this roof in Lisle, we also decided to replace the existing chimney saddle with new copper, and install new copper flashings in a low slope area in the rear of the home.

With a completely new roof, new skylights, gutters, and copper flashings, this roof will last for decades to come.
