In this case study, Jack hires Vantage Roofing to replace cedar roofs with Malarkey shingles, add skylight, plywood/strapping prep, and new gutters/downspouts.

Project Context

Jack emailed Vantage Roofing Ltd for a quote to replace the aging cedar roof on his house and garage with a new asphalt shingle system. After reviewing the home, we proposed removing the cedar shakes, installing plywood and strapping to prepare the deck, and finishing with a Malarkey asphalt shingle roof. The scope also included supplying and installing a domed acrylic skylight to improve natural light and replacing all gutters and downspouts to ensure reliable drainage.

The Challenge

Timing was critical. Jack wanted the work completed before the fall season to avoid water ingress. The roof was large, steep, and technically complex. That meant we needed a safe setup, extra planning, and a clear weather window to execute without delays.

Why The Client Chose Us?

Jack chose Vantage Roofing Ltd because of our strong reputation and clear, competitive estimate. He felt confident we could plan the job properly, work safely on a steep roof, and deliver the project before the rainy season.

How We Responded?

We scheduled the project around a clear weather window and set up extra safety measures for the large, steep roof. Our crew removed the cedar shakes, prepared the deck with plywood and strapping, and installed the Malarkey shingle system with proper ventilation and flashing. We then installed the domed acrylic skylight and replaced every gutter and downspout. The work was completed on time and on budget, with a tidy site and minimal disruption to Jack’s home.

The Results?

Jack now has a durable, low-maintenance Malarkey shingle roof on both the house and garage, plus a new skylight and upgraded gutters. The home is protected ahead of the fall rains, and the clean finish improves curb appeal.
