Roof Replacement Before & After Photos

Located in Horace, ND, Mr. Grant’s 1,800-square-foot, single-story home sits on a spacious ¾-acre lot and needed a complete roof replacement. Years of exposure to extreme weather had taken a toll on the existing asphalt shingles, prompting Mr. Grant to reach out to Vita Roofing for expert assistance. The process began with a free, no-obligation roof inspection, where the condition of the roof was carefully evaluated.

After the inspection, Clay from Vita Roofing walked Mr. Grant through several roofing options and recommended a Class 3 impact-resistant shingle to provide added durability against North Dakota’s demanding climate. This recommendation ensured the new roof would offer enhanced protection while maintaining a clean, attractive appearance.

The Vita Roofing crew removed the old roofing materials down to the decking, replaced any compromised wood, and safeguarded the home’s foundation with protective tarps. Two layers of water and ice shield, synthetic underlayment, aluminum drip edges, updated flashings, and proper venting were installed before finishing the project with IKO Dynasty shingles in Charcoal. The result was a high-performance roofing system that improved curb appeal and delivered lasting peace of mind.

Jack went out to a home in West Fargo, ND, to do a complete roof inspection. Mitchell called Vita Roofing after a major hail storm. Due to the size of the hail and the damage it caused, Mitchell needed to have his roof checked out to confirm the extent of the damage. 

After the inspection, it was confirmed that the roof sustained considerable injury to multiple shingles. The hail strikes left 1" dents in the asphalt. Once the shingle is compermised, it is important to have it replaced. If not, water will seep into the areas where the hail left the marks and will cause deterioration of the roofing underlayment and decking. 

After Mitchell spoke to Jack about his options, Jack assured him that a roof replacement was the best option. If he decided to only repair the damaged sections of asphalt shingles, it would only be a matter of time before the roof would need to be completely replaced. He agreed to a full shingle replacement. He decided to install IKO Nordic top-tier class 4-rated shingles. This asphalt shingle is designed to withstand extreme weather conditions & is impact resistant. This will give his home a better chance to survive future hailstorms. 

Our professional crew recently completed a full roof replacement using IKO Class 3 Impact Rated Dynasty Shingles in Frostone Grey, delivering both superior durability and a fresh, modern look for Cordell, a local Fargo homeonwer. Before the work began, we set up protective tarps to safeguard landscaping, siding, and other ground-level structures from debris. The existing roofing system was removed down to the decking, where we performed a thorough inspection to identify and replace any soft or rotten boards. This careful preparation ensured a strong, lasting foundation for the new roof.

To provide maximum weather protection, we installed two rows of Sealoron XT Ice and Water Shield along all eaves and one row up each valley, plus Sealoron XT Deck Tape on all decking seams. The remaining surface was covered with Velora One Synthetic Underlayment, offering enhanced water resistance and durability. For finishing touches, we added aluminum drip edge around the entire perimeter, seam-taped the eave edges, installed starter shingles along rakes and eaves, and flashed all penetrations to prevent leaks. Proper attic venting was also incorporated to promote healthy airflow and extend the roof’s lifespan.

For the finishing detail, we installed IKO Hip & Ridge shingles, which are made from a resilient inorganic glass base and coated with weather-resistant asphalt. These pre-tapered, three-piece shingles are surfaced with ceramic-colored granules, protecting the roof from ultraviolet damage while adding a clean, refined appearance. Once the installation was complete, our team performed a meticulous cleanup, leaving the property in pristine condition. The result is a beautiful, impact-resistant roofing system built to withstand the elements for years to come.

Our team at Vita Roofing recently completed a full roof replacement for Lloyd, a homeowner in Fargo, ND, whose property had sustained storm damage from previous severe weather. After years of battling high winds and heavy storms, his old roof was no longer offering the protection it should, making a full asphalt shingle replacement the best solution.

To begin the project, we carefully set up tarps around the property to safeguard landscaping and structures while ensuring all debris was contained during the tear-off. The old roofing system was completely removed down to the decking, where we performed a full inspection and replaced any soft or rotted sections to create a solid foundation.

For maximum protection, we installed two rows of Sealoron XT Ice and Water along all eaves and one row up the valleys, followed by Sealoron XT Deck Tape on every decking seam. The rest of the roof was covered with Velora One Synthetic Underlayment, creating a durable, moisture-resistant barrier. To guide water safely off the roof, a 1-3/4" T-Style Aluminum Drip Edge was added around the perimeter, and we applied seam tape to the drip edge along the eaves for added defense. Starter shingles were then installed on all rakes and eaves to prepare the roof for its new finish.

Lloyd selected IKO Dynasty Shingles, a premium asphalt shingle known for its Class 3 Impact Resistance, built-in algae resistance, and upgraded tar and nailing strips for superior holding power. These shingles are also thicker than standard designs, giving Lloyd’s home added strength against future storms, a critical upgrade for the Fargo area. Once the shingles were secured, our crew added all necessary penetration flashings, proper venting, and finished the project with a clean installation of hip and ridge caps. We wrapped up with a thorough, detailed cleanup, leaving Lloyd with a roof that not only restores his home after storm damage but also provides lasting peace of mind for the years ahead.
