Like most Pinnacle roofing projects, the work was completed efficiently — minimizing disruption for the homeowner.
When a storm tore across Bristol, this Butterworth Avenue home was left with wind-lifted shingles and open areas the weather could exploit. Pinnacle responded quickly, documented every point of damage for the insurance adjuster, and carried the project all the way through to a full CertainTeed Landmark roof in Weathered Wood. The result is a stronger, better-sealed roof and a homeowner who never had to fight the claim alone.
Scope of Work
Our crew began with a full inspection and damage assessment, photographing the wind and impact damage so the homeowner’s storm damage restoration claim was backed by clear evidence. From there we tore the roof down to the deck, checked for and replaced any compromised sheathing, and rebuilt the system from the ground up — ice-and-water shield at the eaves and valleys, synthetic underlayment across the field, new drip edge, starter strips, and CertainTeed Landmark architectural shingles finished with matching ridge cap.
What We Installed (And Why)
The new roof is CertainTeed Landmark, a laminated architectural shingle in the Weathered Wood color — a soft, multi-tone brown that suits Bristol’s mix of historic and coastal-influenced homes. Landmark’s two-piece construction gives the roof depth and a heavier, dimensional look while adding wind and weather resistance that a storm-prone coastal town demands.
Underneath the shingles, the details are what make the roof last. Ice-and-water membrane guards the eaves and valleys against wind-driven rain and ice dams, synthetic underlayment adds a durable secondary barrier, and fresh flashing, starter, and ridge cap tie every edge and transition together. Balanced intake and exhaust ventilation keeps the attic dry and helps the shingles perform through New England’s temperature swings.

Good To Know: Will my insurance cover a storm-damaged roof?
In most cases, yes — sudden wind or hail damage is typically a covered peril, but approval hinges on thorough documentation. We inspect the roof, photograph the damage, and prepare a detailed report the adjuster can rely on, then meet with them on-site when needed. Because we handle the claim process alongside you, homeowners are far less likely to have legitimate storm damage overlooked or underpaid.
Why This Approach Works
A storm roof is only as good as the diagnosis behind it. By tearing off to the deck instead of layering over hidden damage, we caught every soft spot and rebuilt with new underlayment, flashing, and ventilation — so the finished Landmark roof isn’t just cosmetically restored, it’s structurally sound. That combination of honest documentation and complete restoration protects both the home and the claim.

Bristol, RI
