Another Westerly project completed right here by Pinnacle Roofing & Skylights: a Roof Replacement on a residential property. Materials were selected specifically for SW tip of RI, Atlantic storm exposure conditions that Westerly homes face year-round. Pinnacle Roofing & Skylights is honored to serve Westerly, bringing the same craftsmanship, clear communication, and commitment to exceed expectations that defines every project we take on.
Scope of Work
This Westerly project followed our full replacement process: complete tear-off of existing material, detailed inspection of the roof deck and structural components, and a clean rebuild from the sheathing up. We repaired or replaced any damaged decking, installed ice and water shield at eaves, valleys, and penetrations, then added synthetic underlayment across the entire roof surface before setting a single shingle. Starter strips, field shingles, hip and ridge caps, and proper ventilation components were all installed to manufacturer requirements with careful attention to fastener placement and exposure. We also inspected and updated all pipe boots, wall flashing, and drip edge to make sure every water path was accounted for—especially important for Westerly homes that face SW tip of RI, Atlantic storm exposure weather. When the shingles are done right but the flashing isn’t, the roof leaks—so we treat transitions as the most critical part of the job. See our residential roofing services.
Materials That Matter
The roofing material on this Westerly home was selected based on the home’s specific exposure, architecture, and the homeowner’s goals—not a one-size-fits-all approach. We installed architectural shingles with a Class A fire rating and 130 mph wind resistance as part of a layered system that includes ice and water protection, synthetic underlayment, proper starter strips, and ridge ventilation. Every component reinforces the others, and that system approach is what delivers the long-term performance that individual products alone cannot. The right roof for our customers is the roof they want in the color and style they want. Compare our CertainTeed, GAF, and Owens Corning options to find the best fit for your home.
Good To Know
For Westerly homeowners near Misquamicut Beach, proper attic ventilation is one of the most important factors in how long a roof lasts—and it is also one of the most overlooked. Ridge vents and soffit vents working together create continuous airflow that removes heat and moisture from the attic space, preventing the ice dams and condensation that destroy shingles and rot decking from the inside out. Without adequate ventilation, attic temperatures in Westerly can exceed 150 degrees in summer, baking the shingles from below while the sun bakes them from above. We assess ventilation on every project because it directly affects the lifespan of the new roof system.
Why This Approach Works
Proper tear-off and thorough deck inspection before installing any new material is what separates a 15-year roof from a 30-year roof. On this Westerly project, we removed everything down to bare sheathing so we could see exactly what was underneath—and address any issues that would have shortened the new roof’s life if left hidden. Damaged decking was replaced, ventilation was assessed and improved where needed, and every transition point received new flashing. Building a roof on a solid foundation is the only way to get the full performance life out of the materials, and we won’t install new shingles over problems we can see.
