420 Douglas Crescent, Richmond, BC V7B 1E5

In this case study, we explore how Kel and Trev replaced their overdue asphalt shingle roof with a Malarkey system and Soprema 3-ply torch-on, ensuring lasting durability and protection.

Kel and Trev reached out to Vantage Roofing because they noticed their old asphalt shingle roof was overdue for replacement. They wanted a reliable roofing company with the right expertise to replace the shingles, remove or re-flash any problem areas, and install a flat roof system that would stand the test of time.

Our team recommended a high-quality Malarkey asphalt shingle roof for the pitched sections. On the flat roof, we suggested installing a Soprema 3-ply torch-on system for excellent durability and weather protection.

The Challenge

The main challenge was to replace the aging roof before any leaks could occur, which risked damaging Kel and Trev’s home interior. Additionally, the project required careful attention to detail in several areas, such as:

  • Re-flashing the skylights
  • Removing the chimney and roofing over it
  • Installing new vent strips and ensuring proper ventilation
  • Correctly applying a reliable torch-on system on the flat roof

  4. Applied a Soprema Torch-On System: On the flat roof portion, we used a 3-ply Soprema torch-on system known for its strength and water resistance.

Throughout the process, we kept communication open with Kel and Trev, ensuring they felt informed and at ease.
