Mooresville, NC Roof Replacement with CertainTeed Landmark PREMIUM and Custom Copper

Skylights require careful attention during a roof replacement because the area surrounding the skylight must be properly incorporated into the new roofing system. 

As part of this project, Great State Roofing completed the skylight replacement together with the full shingle roof replacement. Coordinating the work at the same time helped create a consistent roofing system around the skylight and avoided leaving an older roof penetration within the newly installed roof. 

One of the defining features of this Mooresville roofing project was the replacement of six copper barrel dormers.

Barrel dormers introduce curved architectural surfaces that require a different level of fabrication and installation than conventional roofing sections. Their shape, transitions, seams, and surrounding roof connections must all work together as part of the water-management system.

Great State Roofing specializes in custom metal and copper roofing details, allowing our team to handle roofing projects that involve more than conventional asphalt shingles.

The six new copper barrel dormers preserve the architectural character of the residence while giving these prominent roof features renewed protection and a distinctive finished appearance.

Copper is also a material that changes naturally over time. Its initial metallic finish gradually develops a patina as it is exposed to the environment, allowing the architectural details to continue developing character throughout the life of the roof.

Homes throughout the Lake Norman and Mooresville area often feature more complex rooflines and architectural details than a straightforward shingle roof.

Dormers, bay windows, valleys, transitions, and specialty metal sections can make replacement projects considerably more detailed. For these homes, choosing the shingle is only one part of the roofing decision. The contractor must also understand how different materials and roof sections interact.

This Mooresville project demonstrates the type of work Great State Roofing is equipped to complete: premium shingle roof replacement combined with custom architectural copper work.

Instead of dividing the project between unrelated roofing and metal contractors, the different roof components can be approached as a complete exterior roofing system with attention to both performance and appearance.

Replacing a conventional shingle roof and completing a roof with extensive custom copper details are very different projects.

Specialty roofing requires careful planning around material transitions, flashing, curved sections, seams, drainage, and architectural proportions. Poorly executed metal details can affect both appearance and roof performance.

Great State Roofing works on residential roofing systems ranging from architectural shingle replacements to detailed copper and specialty metal projects. Our approach emphasizes quality workmanship, clear project management, and attention to the details that determine how a completed roof looks and performs.

This project is an example of that approach: a complete roof replacement where the architectural shingles, copper dormers, and copper bay window sections were treated as parts of one coordinated roofing system.
