Project Context
Cedar roofs can offer natural character, but as they age, maintenance becomes more difficult and surrounding components can begin to suffer. In Natalie’s case, visible wear, damaged fascia, and stained soffits pointed to the need for a complete replacement approach rather than another short-term repair.
The challenge was to modernize the entire roofing system while addressing potential hidden moisture damage and making sure every component worked together. This meant rebuilding not just the visible roof surface, but also the decking, ventilation, flashing, and edge details that help prevent future deterioration.
Natalie selected Vantage Roofing Ltd. because we focused on the whole roofing system, not just the shingles. Our experience with premium Malarkey installations and cedar-to-asphalt conversions gave her confidence that the work would be completed thoroughly, professionally, and with strong warranty-backed protection.
We removed the original cedar roof, installed new plywood sheathing, and rebuilt the roof using a complete Malarkey Vista system with high-performance underlayment, waterproofing protection, starter shingles, ridge components, flashings, and upgraded ventilation. We also replaced damaged fascia and prepared to address any concealed soffit issues uncovered during the process so the finished system would be sound from top to edge.
The finished project gave Natalie a stronger, more efficient, and lower-maintenance roofing system designed for long-term performance. The home now benefits from upgraded protection, improved airflow, reinforced structure, and the added confidence of Malarkey Emerald Pro warranty coverage.
