Encinitas Roofing Contractor
Project Summary: Roof Replacement for on Neptune Avenue, Encinitas, CA, 92024
Encinitas Roofing Contractor Richardson Roofing was contacted by our client who was in the process of purchasing their new home located on Neptune Avenue in Encinitas. Amy Green with Coastal Premier Properties is their real estate agent.
They needed a roof inspection as soon as possible. This was due to the home inspection report showing multiple roof leaks. The roof inspection revealed that the entire roof was installed incorrectly. The assessment of the existing roof revealed significant issues, including improperly installed asphalt shingles that resulted in multiple leaks.
Additionally, the gutters, which were made of copper, were inappropriately secured with galvanized nails. This installation method led to electrolysis, causing the copper to deteriorate where it made contact with the nails, further compromising the structure’s integrity.
There was not a way that this roof could be fixed short of reroofing the home. So we were faced with an urgent reroofing / roof replacement.
To address these critical issues, our team meticulously removed the roofing down to the wood sheathing to ensure a thorough inspection of the underlying structure. During this process, we identified and replaced any damaged wood to restore the roof’s support and durability. After the necessary repairs were made, we installed Owens Corning Duration COOL asphalt shingles, chosen for their high wind rating and compliance with California’s Title 24 energy efficiency requirements. These shingles not only improve the roof’s resilience against coastal winds but also contribute to energy savings for Anjuli’s home.
In addition to the roofing work, we replaced all of the copper metal flashing to ensure proper water management and prevent future leaks. Our commitment to quality craftsmanship and customer satisfaction was evident throughout the project, as we worked diligently to restore the integrity and functionality of the roofing system. The successful completion of this project has equipped Anjuli’s home with a reliable, energy-efficient roof that will provide protection for years to come. Richardson Roofing remains dedicated to delivering high-quality roofing solutions that meet the unique needs of our Encinitas clients.

The old gutters had fallen off due to a faulty installation. Can you guess what it was?
Not much of the roof is visible on the side of the home facing the ocean, but this is the side that takes a brutal beating during the winter storms. It was essential to use an asphalt shingle with a high wind resistance rating.
